  1. Covid hits us in yet another way. The ban on travelling outwith local authority area for the lad to make trips home to his parents house seems to have been a decisive factor here.
  2. If you want to go to heaven when you die.....
  3. Some great efforts with festive player names. But I’m not sure what made me cringe most - the singing, or the bit about how Brad was coming in to a good game
  4. Many names there I’d completely forgotten about and one that I’d tried to forget but you’ve now reminded me of - but take a bow Dani Lopez, 2 goals in a season!
  5. Indeed! But when it is a decision by the Scottish Government that prevents us from attending ICT games then it’s inevitable that there will be some crossover into politics.
  6. FACTS is NOT well understood, Scottish Governments own research found that only a minority of people knew what it stands for and fewer still know the required action for each letter. It was also their decision to adopt Hands Face Space in Scotland so if you think that campaign is inferior you are criticising them.
  7. W3 D3 L3 That’s a sure fire recipe for mid table mediocrity but we can definitely do better.
  8. We had a pretty good 2nd half which was encouraging, but sooooo many poor touches, passes and crosses throughout the game.
  9. How bad must Wallace Duffy be to not get a game?!
  10. But isn’t that just a good example of the Scottish Government making us different just for the sake of it, when there was nothing about the English tier system they were basically copying that was unsuitable for Scotland? It just causes unnecessary confusion and achieves no benefit. At least they have now withdrawn the “FACTS” advertising campaign that few people understood, and quietly adopted the simpler and clearer UK slogan instead. Not that it’ll make much difference but confusion and inconsistent messaging are not good things when you are relying on the public knowing what they should do.
  11. Sometimes. But not today.
  12. That finish did not belong in this game.
  13. Stumbled across some Romanian tabloid articles about Marius Niculae from a few months ago.
  14. Sadly adherence to the rules is pretty poor, which in turn may be because there is pretty much no enforcement of the rules, with no punishment even for various high profile breaches. If you are relying on the public sacrificing a bit of their liberty and happiness on what is seen as being an optional basis, it’ll be a long time before we get crowds back at games.
  15. I also forgot Dougie Imrie. We reportedly paid £45k to Clyde for him then got £25k for him from Hamilton a few years later. He and Rankin might be the only players who have had transfer fees on joining and leaving ICT?
  16. Same thing for players sold. Christie 500 Niculae 400 Rankin 100 Cowie 100 M Brown 100 Wilson 60-100 Robson 50 Proctor 35!!! Bingham 20 Oakley 20 Donaldson 20 Xausa 15 Smart 15
  17. Players I can recall we have paid a fee for, with ballpark numbers based on my memory of media/internet speculation. We very rarely announced or confirmed fees. John Rankin £65k Adam Rooney £50k iain Stewart £30k Bobby Mann £25k Martin Glancy £15k There might also have been smaller/nominal fees paid for Danny Williams, Steve Hislop, Richie Hart, Markus Paatelainen and others, but not sure. I’m sure others will be able to add to this.
  18. Santa delivered for me too.
  19. And similarly, would any of their dead wood be of use to us if available at low cost or on loan?
  20. If Yogi is looking for new players, and with Roy no doubt providing additional funds, do ICT have any players who Hughes admires and who fit the bill to help with their relegation battle?
  21. Disappointed that they’ve now got such a good manager. Kettlewell should have been given more time!
  22. Do you know, this morning I was looking at the fixtures and wondered if he was at risk of sacking today, and if Robbo would be the obvious choice to replace him (local, cheap).
  23. Worst result of the season. We really struggled against the part-time sides last season too.
  24. Curry actually came on as a sub midweek, as most of Sunderland’s first team was unavailable due to Covid. They’ve had to postpone their next 3 games so he might not get further chances any time soon.
  25. “We are in a situation in Scottish football where as football clubs, we should be helping each other out” Short memories, Dundee FC.
