Off to OAM

Nice to have a bit of bias towards ICT for a change

According to the 3 eejits they have only played 30 mins ????????????

Aye and the Dons trainer first to react when Shinnie went down

Running a few minutes behind 'live', a bit stop start but better than OAM.

Perhaps we see things differently ? That's perfectly all right, you are entitled to say your piece as I am mine. I have however noticed that Esson does lose his concentration from time to time and has done for a long time now, it may be momentarily but it can be costly. i.e. The County game as well as this last one are two examples and there were many more before he got injured and was replaced by Brill. I remember commenting some while back about it taking a goal against us for Esson to wake up then he would play brilliantly. Do I also remember a long spell of clean sheets with Brill in charge ?

Going to disagree with that, Esson's reactions have slowed over the last few seasons, he should have been alert enough to anticipate that shot, Clarkson was completely unmarked and Esson should have moved accordingly, Also there were many times when #he just managed to evade the embarrassment of losing the ball when the pass backs were there for him to collect comfortably. He is still a good keeper but not the one he used to be. It has to be Brill we need his commanding presence and reactive ability.

You got a lot of hammerings in the 50's, took you a long time to 'buy' decent instructors. Yer heids were so far up yer own own tarsus we loved giving you these hidings. still there in some cases

Thanks CD, you had a busy and disappointing night.

This hype about Dee coming here to challenge for a top six berth din't materialize, there was very little flair, no fight and were completely bossed by us in the first half. There was a tricky wind to contend with and we did not master it. Some excellent play and passing and chances were made but not put away. Some good through balls too but all fractionally too strong. The shots that were put in on target were capably handled by the Dee Keeper. The first half was certainly all ours and we should have won the game by half time. Second half they controlled the wind behind them much better than we ;had done yet still didn't show any real fight and continued to fall down whenever tackled.Willie the ****** helped their cause by continually giving them free kicks, the falling down was so obvious it seemed to really frustrate our side who were beginning to wonder if they should tackle. Their goal was a gift a mistake in defence a pass to an unguarded player and a well taken shot, albeit saveable in my opinion, put them ahead. Then an all action ICTwith precision passing and great intent found Graeme in space to rocket the ball into the back of the net, a cracker that earned him MOM.....much more of that would be welcome! Ofere is a grafter and came close on two occasions both of which got me onto my feet thinking he had scored No question we were the better team but once again we didn't put away a bundle of chances. Not a bit downhearted though we can still win the rest of our games. Noteable point with just time to mount a final attack Draper hurriedly ran to pick up a ball that went past the post to speed up play, gave it to Ryan who faffed about placing it and slowly took the kick. I would like to see Ofere and Brill start our next games

Come on Jim, you just lifted the phone and the operator asked you what number you wanted....... probably ask you if it was something serious or if it was auld Wullies back again, then as she was connecting you finish by saying Awe the poor soul.

Och let's just win the cup !

Well done to Brora, a fantastic season for them. Another great accomplishment for a North Highland football side. Fingers crossed they top the playoffs and eventually become another thorn in the Ass of the SPFL.
