Have we seen a "Devine intervention" headline yet? We have now!

Come on ICT, get us to Hampden please!

This is all quite a comedown for the team that reached the final of the Ashes.

There's no such thing as "unnatural position" anywhere in the rules. It's deliberate handball or no foul at all.

A lot of people seem to struggle with Ciftci's name. Allow me to help. You won't be too far wrong with "Chief cheat".

After all the recent complaints about the terrible coverage we get from the BBC, they dedicate a prime time Saturday evening show to ICT.......and we don't show up.

Benefits of a postponement: 1. Tie will take place when Ofere and Kink are fitter and know the team better 2. Warren won't be suspended 3. Brill might be back. 4. Pitch should be in better nick, to suit our passing game 5. We will definitely be in the draw for the sem-finals!

Meekings at Pittodrie?

Give you a clue....an away game and you can just make out the eye of the goal scorer to the right of Christie's head.

Talking of stats and records, I noticed that according to Soccerbase, our Ryan Christie's first competitive game was a Scottish Cup tie for Fraserburgh in 2006 - when he was just 11.

Like the interviews with the new signings - but what goal is being celebrated in the background?

Had a dream last night that Watkins played upfront in this one but got 2 yellows in the first half, and we lost 1-0. I don't think it is a credible premonition though, as we also brought on one of my mates (a Dundee Utd fan) as a sub and he got a straight red within seconds.

And yet Jim Weir doesn't have a great record at the 3 Angus clubs he managed, getting sacked at least twice. So does this turnaround suggest, that Barry Wilson was a pretty poor manager? The next time the ICT job is up for grabs will surely be the first time since about 2005 that we won't have fans rose-tintedly suggesting that Wilson should get the job. He's still one of my all time fave players though.

3 poor performances in a week. Thankfully Utd have done slightly worse.

Motherwell had only taken 1 point from their previous 8 games. We have now won just 1 of our last 5 league games.

First time in 8 games that we haven't scored the first goal.

Notice how Ciftci was wearing gloves? It's not because of the cold, it's to avoid leaving fingerprints.

So we have 3 guys on trial and then sign this striker from leftfield, so to speak. I recall Hughes saying a few weeks ago that he wouldn't sign a player unless he's personally seen him play. Has he? It's an intriguing signing though, however it came about.

Not forgetting Mali Watkins!

Forget "Where's Wally", let's play "Where's Ciftci?"

That was about 10 years ago, and has become our 1966!

I think in Scotland we should just stick to the sports that we are good at, like, erm.....

Not sure what to make of this, but I see on BBC website the match highlights are under the heading "Rugby Union"

Fair point, I really can't think why didn't use the actual home of Haig!
