Extremely talented player who left nothing out on the football field, gave it his all during his playing career and continued up to his last days, very sad news indeed, no one deserves to suffer especially not in this way. Testament to the man's talents is this Dutch team that he managed to get into

I agree with you and can understand where you are coming from. Due to the post being titled 'Fort William - first league win in 882 days' the thread should have been posted in the UK Football forum where I'm tempted to move it to. If anyone wants to discuss the merits of the ICTFC loanees on this forum then I agree call it by their names or something similar that then relates it to ICTFC. It should be specific to ICTFC and not other teams, twist the thread round and angle it from the players perspective rather than the team perspective.

While I agree with what you say and the sentiment it's up to the company providing the stewards to ensure that they are up to the job, if not then what's the point of them. Saying that I'm sure we've all said on more than one occasion what's the point in stewards, they pick on easy targets and that's no matter where you go. If the club aren't happy with the service provided by said company then they should complain about it, the only way for the club to back this up is by fans complaining to the club. Make them aware of your concerns and complaints, whether they take notice is up to them but at least ourselves as fans have done what we can.

I disagree ?

I agree on Morton's failure up front and in respect to us allowing them the chances however to flip that on it's head, for me the pleasing aspect is we took notice of it. While they parked the bus we took the game to them and showed a ruthlessness we've lacked for a long time. All too often we'd have huffed and puffed in a game like last night.

Completely agree, looks very assured on the ball and making good driving runs that we've been lacking all season. We need more of that from other players and see no reason why McCart and Donaldson can't push up more as well. As I type we go 2v0 up - Keatings 46mins

Keatings, 43mins 1v0 to us

I see it's a record breaking crowd bolstered by what looks like 8 Morton fans Backs up the ridiculousness surrounding this game being televised.

........ and when he leaves I'm sure you'll be the first to question why we let him go. Either you've seen something different this season from last season to change your mind on him or you're just being different for the sake of it, the boy couldn't do anything right last season in your eyes but now you think he's a decent player. You're a confusing chap Alan Simpson, so much so I think you're confusing yourself.

This is the games we should be encouraging youth, start with a couple of the younger lads and lets see what they can do. After all if we won't do it in these games then when will we?! I agree there's no such thing as a nonsense cup but it's about priorities and this one surely ranks lowest of them all so make it work for the good of the squad if nothing else.

Our style of play needs to change for sure and has been evident all season. We have players who can take the ball down and run at defence but the mental block we have with tactics and persistent long ball won't a loud it. Have to agree with you regards the management team and their thinking.

Indeed, I married a cougar who showed me the error of my ways not least my choice of teams and here we are ......... ?

Ironically we're in Sneck this weekend but not at the game, currently having an cheeky drink to celebrate Caleyjags birthday. She was at the 5v2 game in '94 so fitting we won today. Was really important we got a win today just to put points on the board and in still a bit of confidence amongst the squad. Be good to read the comments from those that were at the game.

Get in!!

Swift kick up the erse would do just as well

HT 1v1 Makes a change for us to be scoring just before the whistle as opposed to conceding

1v1 - Doran

0v1 - Arbroath - Bobby Linn, 28mins

Using my phone so no normal match day thread format, sorry. Rooney returns, not sure many had predicted that and I wonder just how fit he is. No changes up front so for me they must perform today. I never like to say a game is a must win and it's not the end of the world if we don't but really we need to kick-start our season with at minimum a win.

Daniel Mackay didn't stand a chance of getting game time with us bringing in Todorov, Keatings and Storey so in a way it makes sense to get it elsewhere. Remind me though why our management team repeatedly big up our youngsters stating how good they are only to repeatedly ignore them.

Agree with you there however given who we've brought in and the positions they play it'll never happen and he won't be on the radar. Had he been available I reckon he'd have been brought in instead of Mitch Curry.

You and Robbo would get on like a house on fire then

Double edged sword tbh, while I expected nothing else than to be beat I certainly didn't expect to be beaten by this margin. Is it a gulf or just down to one bad day? I'm hoping for the latter but things need to change as that's now three defeats to Utd in as many competitive months and we look defeated even before we play them, a shadow of the team that put them out of the Scottish Cup last season. Devoid of inspiration, devoid of innovation, devoid of creativity and almost going through the motions of inevitability. It's very difficult to predict a drastic improvement for Saturday against Arbroath but we must win, we've started this season the way we finished last season and that's infectious.

It's encouraging to see that things have changed then .............. (looks to the heavens in hope)

Now you're just trippin .............. Danny Williams, really? Decent player but don't recall him setting the place alight. Thought you were all about giving youth a chance as well but not much hope of that if we bring back every Tom, Dick and Harry.
