Fantastic result and a great, noisy and passionate night. Not your normal TCS experience! Long may it continue and I think we can still improve. The County gloryhunting brigade must be feeling pretty deflated right now!
-
Agree 100%. It has to be NO to newco Rangers, the remnant of an arrogant, deluded and dishonest club. Any financial consequences for Scottish football can and will be dealt with.
-
Does anyone know why the 4th round has been moved from it's usual first Sat in January slot?
-
End of an era. Good luck to Ross, the one player out on that pitch that you knew always genuinely cared about ICT.
-
He will sign for them, it's a no-brainer for Jonny there's a Nando's in Aberdeen...
-
In tabloidese players are often "flattered" that a bigger club has been "tracking" them. Said club may then "swoop". The one that makes me choke on my cornflakes is when somebody has "admitted" to being a "self-confessed" fan of either half of Old Filth. Boak.
-
Agreed we've got to start offering 2 year deals if the club are serious about staying in the SPL - also at least then if anybody's interested in a player after a year they will command a fee, however modest. Restricting finances to the extent that we are continually stitching a team together from other peoples cast offs is false economy and will end with us playing part-time in D1.

2 for Craig Dargo today in play-off final for Dumbarton, 4-1 v Airdrie (6-2 agg)
-
A disappointment for the neutral was never really a contest, and another Scottish refereeing masterclass helped Hearts as if they needed it.
-
This is really good news especially the fact that it's a two year deal.
-
Agree it looked at the end of the game and when the players came back out as if Rossco knew that was the end. Hope that's not the case. As IHE says if the club failed to mark such an occasion it would be an absolute travesty. We'll see....
-
Can't believe Hibs 4th goal was given wasn't even close to the goal line never mind crossing it. Even by standards of Scottish officialdom a howler and a half, lucky for all concerned that it mattered not a jot.
-
Credit where it's due they've had a great season. Don't think they'll be as good in the SPhelL as some people think, it's not an attractive league but it is tough. Gonna be a real edge to our meetings I think, as long as we finish above them that'll be fine!
-
I don't think the club should resign Jonny Tuffey. Absolutely nothing against the boy but in our situation, with weaknesses to be addressed, carrying two proven experienced keepers is arguably a luxury we can't afford. Butcher certainly should look to the SFL for players I very much doubt that he will.
-
Agree that Tansey can improve and I think he has done as the season's gone on. Not entirely convinced by McKay despite his workrate. Suppose he deserves another chance though but we simply have to keep the ball on the floor and play it into feet if he is to succeed. Could look a much better player with Andrew Shinnie playing just off him.
-
Excellent post CaleyD. It's been a horrible season but let's show that as a support we can be there to encourage the team in the bad times as well as the good, whatever our opinions are.
-
Fantastic result. To have a final at a full Hampden with no OF is a shot in the arm for Scottish fitba.
-
Now THAT is factually correct!
-
Hayes Tansey Golobart
-
He should get a chance to sort this team out over the summer. It will take a lot of sorting. After that I'd give him and Maurice Malpas until Christmas to prove they can take things forward. It's no use waiting till March/April to change a manager.
-
Sir Roscoe of Tokely Tuffey McKay
-
I honestly felt sorry for McKay tonight what on earth is a player of his height and build supposed to do with the kind of service he was getting? To just lump the ball high and long towards him is insane. In the absence of Hayes and Doran play Ross wide and get him to try to put crosses in. And push Foran forward in support. Like many others got to mention Tokely he was magnificent. Thought his time may have passed a couple of months ago but been well and truly proved wrong.
-
The club needs to start looking at SFL players rather than just taking on English based frees and loanees. Craig Reid of QOS had a great game in defence in their cup tie at Aberdeen a few weeks ago and is out of contract this summer. Worth a look.
-
Point total compared with previous seasons
krakatoa replied to hislopsoffsideagain's topic in Caley Thistle
Food for thought. Basically we're back to where we started under Butcher after a three year rollercoaster ride. Albeit we will almost certainly stay up this season. -
Yes still reasonably satisfied overall, I think Butcher has enough credit in the bank with most fans despite this dog's breakfast of a season. And the injuries have been a justifiable excuse for some of our problems. A crucial summer lies ahead however. The defence must be sorted if we are to stay up next season and that should not mean scratching around for loanees.
