Given the distance that Craig Phadrig is from that watercourse, is it not more likely to be the river and its west bank from the Castle Hill or more likely nearer Godsmans Brae? I've done a bit of Googlemapping and it's by no means obvious exactly where this is. In addition, this could well be quite an old photo and a lot of buildings, including the one in the foreground may no longer be there. I wonder if this could be just before the Bught Park begins where the Mormon church and the Free Presbyterian Old Folks Home (some great late night parties in there on Sundays by the way) now are. What a strange photograph, the background looks early 50's, the foreground ???....well isn't that a very modern lamppost on the right as you face it and on the left what looks like a bollard also very modern.....could be my eyes but something looks very wrong!!!

Can I echo all the posts on here, all ICT supporters would love to be out there cheering the lads on but unfortunately for many different reasons many of us can only be there in spirit. It's our new biggest game ever lads, you have come back at many a game and done us proud when it looked like it was all over for us. I am sure you can do it again, it is part and parcel of the ICT spirit. Pace yourselves well and enjoy the magnificence of the occasion .......the very best of luck lads and to all our support as well.............enjoy

The confusion came from the Nairn Twitter site, originally it did say Doran then it was changed later to Foran so yes extremely lazy journalism.

MAGNIFICENT

Loch Mullardoch used to be one of my favourite fishing haunts in the sixties, I went back there five years ago and was shocked to see the mess someone had made trying to make access for mooring boats. Also sad to see the old wooden bridge had gone on the approach road. I should have known there would be changes during the intervening years , what is it called again?.............Oh yes PROGRESS!

White one could be a Lada, judging by the tank like bonnet.

Putting this here might be the wrong place BUT Astra were beaten 1 - 5 tonight. Hope the Club is getting hold of a video showing how the Targu Mures goals came about, having said that Astra may have fielded a weakened Team in preparation for Thursday so I wont get too excited over that.

My thoughts on the Astra defence were similar to Renegades, they closed us down very quickly every time, bar once when from a throw in near the centre of the pitch when a touch from Tansey ( I think) sent the ball down the wing to send, I think it was Doran, through on an open run from which he had a great opportunity to score. So there are weaknesses there but to breach that defence we need lots of pace and players running into the box continually when we break. I don't think Foran is ready yet to start the game but definitely needs to be on if we haven't scored by the first 15mins of the second half. Our own defence was good, however much as I like big Drapes in there perhaps Wedderburn could be the better option for the away leg. Referees have a habit of picking on Draper for the slightest bit of contact. Fon Williams definitely was not happy with the 'wall' and looked distracted as the kick was taken, a slight timing error or late sighting caused the mishap not sure which but he did get his hand to what was a very good strike. I don't place too much blame on him. Incidentally nobody in the wall jumped as I can remember, they seemed flat footed, something to learn there. We can still win our way through to the next round, a one nil lead for the home leg can be quite scary and they will be conscious of that. Wouldn't surprise me if they changed tactics and go for a quick goal to seal the tie.

Never mind Jagster you did a fine job keeping us informed with what was happening at the match, Maybe that will let your wife forgive you you were working hard.

F T definitely hoped for more goals, Maybe Yogi just wanted them to have a run out today and not give anything away??

Nothing on twitter

Nairn 0 - ICT1 H.T. I was hoping to hear the goals rattling in today, we have got to find our Scoring touches for Thursday.

Doran scores pass from Roberts Obviously wrong information from Nairn Well done Richie Foran

Nothing seems to be happening on twitter today, hope someone manages to get an update or two through to us Just found some info at Nairn County twitter:- ICT doing a lot of god play. pressing hard, missing an opportunity and no score as yet

Hopefully it will all be target practice and a score the most competition for our front line

WE won the Scottish cup !!!

Strange how hush hush the Fon Williams signing is being handled, no mention from the Club no mention in the Press or Media. I still have doubts about the authenticity of this. He is fairly high profile so you would expect some form of 'leek'----------- him being Welsh and all that!

Was that one of Stanley Baxters catch phrases Scarlet ? .....If ya want me thingme ringme ??

Nah ! made my own sloe gin.....much better.

Yupp Dixon.......and then came Z cars the next cop soap.

About time we had a few more goals !!! I have a feeling the comments from those who are there today should make interesting reading. I look forward to the reports. All over 1-1......poor rehearsal best performance ????????..maybe

Thanks ubern ........... Tansey off '.......Polworth on
