  1. Wish I was there but got a family event today. Being in this round is a bonus, we’re getting a free hit with nothing to lose. We’re up against a superior side who are in great form so the chances are we will lose, but you know what, this is the Cup and we are ICT!
  2. Manager of the month, and as far as 2023 goes, Manager of the Year!
  3. Not that it really matters, but what is the official result of this cup tie? We do not appear to have been awarded a 3-0 win, so is the game nul and void or does the 0-2 result stand? The SFA site shows 0-2 but I’m not sure how much you can read into that.
  4. The kind of game we need to be winning if we want to be in the playoffs. But also big sighs of relief after coming from behind twice against a team that normally beats us, and delighted for Cairns getting his first goal.
  5. Anyone know howmuch extra prize money we get for making it through to the next round? I think it will be a 5 figure sum, much needed by the club.
  6. You need to consider the population living within reasonable travelling distance for a night out.
  7. Bad result. I expected better. So disappointing to go out of the Cup like that.
  8. Disappointed to see that Reece McAlear has signed for Ayr, on loan from Tranmere.
  9. I enjoyed the section on the latest Wyness Shuffle reminiscing on January transfer window signings from years gone by. They managed to trawl up some names we’d all been trying to forget!

    No, he explained what the role was and what additional projects Robbo had been working on. I think it was pretty clear for anyone who was prepared to listen with an open mind. Whether or not a club in our predicament can afford to have a DoF role is certainly up for debate, but as the position only came about because Robbo had 2 years left on his managerial contract, I doubt we’ll be retaining that structure unless we somehow get promoted.
  11. FT 2-2. Not a bad result, away to another mid table side, but not a good result either.

    Robbo

    Is it at the end of this season that his managerial contract expires?

    Robbo

    It does seem odd that he chooses to do other paid work on a match day. He doesn’t NEED to be at our matches, as he’s not part of the coaching set up, and as for scouting, his job is not to identify what we need but to go out and find what the manager says we need - but still, you’d think he’d WANT to be at matches.
  14. If I remember correctly (which is by no means guaranteed) the final match of the season was a midweek home game v Fraserburgh who went 2-0 up before Caley salvaged a draw and retained their unbeaten run.
  15. Darvel win announced as “The biggest upset in Scottish Cup history” in the Reporting Scotland news headlines.
  16. The one that says “We are delighted to announce the signing of George Oakley on a deal until the Summer of 2024“?!
  17. Yes I was wondering where that upset ranks in the list of biggest SC shocks, and also whether any of the tabloids will do a Superdarvelgoballistic…” headline! Darvel did great and worked so hard all over the pitch, against a team 5 leagues above them. They are pretty well resourced for a part-time team though, and were up against a team in poor form, to the extent that BBC sensed blood and picked the match for live coverage. Our rivals to the title of biggest upset (Berwick, Clyde, Darvel) all had the significant advantage of playing at home. And they only won by 1 goal!
  18. Stumbled across this, we seem to have gone a wee bit viral.
  19. The England PFA offer a whole package of support but I’m not sure if there is any equivalent with the Scottish PFA? Opening para from a Herald article last month: “Scottish professional footballers are having to rely on charity to help fund their recovery from injury, with their clubs, PFA Scotland and the game’s governing bodies either unable to help pay for their treatment or unwilling to accept it is their responsibility to do so.”
  20. Another tie that is unglamorous, unlucrative, and not easily winnable.
  21. St Johnstone have contacted County about White but were told he’s not available.
  22. The fact that we have a threadbare squad and almost no other attacking options yet are still releasing Oakley speaks volumes that this transfer didn’t really work out for anyone.
  23. Pope Catholic.
