2015 because I was there!
-
Just make attendance compulsory for all Inverness residents.
-
13. First appearance in Scottish Cup final!!!!! 14. Best ever season v Celtic (2 wins and a draw...with one still to play)
-
Chick Young looks gutted! Probably just because St Midden are mince.
-
Just so ffing brilliant. Could not have happened to a better bunch of guys who played some great football at times. Fans were fantastic throughout, despite the killjoy stewards. Didn't stop singing from start to finish. Song of the day was " stick your fffing treble up your @rse" albeit a bit premature. I'm knackered!
-
Boys on the pitch are brilliant. Fans with the drum - superb! Tw@ts in G4S jackets - an embarrassment. How to make an incident out of absolutely nothing. We can do this!
-
Finally, getting the butterflies for Sunday! Can't believe how low key the whole build up has been about the semi finals (not just in Inverness). Agree 100% with Davie - we're the last serious obstacle left to upset Celtic's treble applecart.....and they know it! Play at our best and we can win this!!!!! Last minute goal in extra time from Nick Ross to win it.....you heard it here first!
-
Loving your optimism, Davie, but 16 out of 18 points available??!! My guess is that we'll get ~9 points from 6 and DU will get ~10 points from 7, which would easily see us over the line....any advances on that?
-
Sadly, can't disagree. Frankly, expecting to win games usually ends in disappointment. The only games we might expect to win at the moment would be against St Mirren and Hamilton. So, the only way that we might expect to win games post-split is to have been in the bottom half! Not sure anybody would have preferred that! The whole point of getting in the top 6 is that you get to play the best in the country, so, yes, they'll be tough: wouldn't want it any other way. I'm sure DU are not relishing 2 games against both us and Aberdeen + 1 against Celtic + 2x Tayside derbies. Match their results and we're in 3rd.
-
I'm happy with that. Am I right in saying that we'll then have played DU 3 times at home? They'll not be happy with that....be we are!
-
Hope you're right, OCG!
-
Agree with 2k fans - sadly, I don't feel the buzz that there should be! However, I'm more concerned about the comments from JH on MFR: "we've tried a few things over the last few games and will shake it up for next week". I said at the time that the 5 at the back against PT was with one eye on the semi. Please, no! Hopefully, it's just a ruse to keep them guessing....
-
Great result - good to see the right selection paying dividends. Shame that DU won, but our future is in our own hands! Celtic won't take us lightly next week. Really bad luck for Deano - hope it isn't career threatening. Such a shame that he'll not be at Hampden, but Esson has not let us down.
-
Looks a better line-up.C'MON!
-
Yup, the striker problem is affecting us, but so is the lack of ambition. What's to lose? United are even worse than us, so let them go and express themselves. There'll be no easy games until the end of the season, but please try to entertain us!
-
Right guys coming on, but would be interested to hear what system we're playing now? 4-4-2?
-
Right - let's show some ambition now instead of this containment sh!te! No shots in 45 min is not good enough. Sounds like JH's tactics at Ibrox have reared their ugly head.
-
Not our finest year at this level!
-
We need to have a "right good go" at Aberdeen this week. What's to lose? It would be good to roar into the Europa league instead of dribbling over the line on account of DU's implosion.....or worse, just missing out again!
-
Brill Raven Warren Meekings Shinnie Draper Tansey Watkins Ross Williams Ofere Subs: Doran, Christie, Vincent, Polworth, Tremarco, Esson , Devine Bring Christie on for Ross after 60 min and Doran for Williams. could always go to 4-4-2 with Watkins and Ofere if necessary.
-
I'm willing to change this to "Kink has been truly awful for the 25min or so that he's played so far": anyone get excited when they see him coming off the bench? I was doubly disappointed today because he replaced Nick Ross, who was having a good game! Hopefully, my scathing comments will ensure that he comes on to score the winner in the semi...!
-
What we learned today: 1. Shinnie is the best left back in Scotland 2. Watkins is not a centre forward 3. Doran has no left foot and was playing in no man's land in the first half 4. Nick Ross has a future 5. Kink is truly awful 6. Ofere has potential I'm not as downbeat as some. First half, we totally bossed it without creating much. Had no shape on the left because Doran was always inside! Second half was more even and we lost something when Christie and Ross went off. Kink may as well have stayed in the dressing room. We're not so far off our best, but there's a spark missing. Should have cemented 3rd today, but DU are in freefall, so hopefully we can do so in the next couple of games. Need to do more if we want to win the semi!

Report in Express that Hearts are interested....

While not all semis used to be at Hamden, the games that attract bigger crowds used to be played there. There is no way a Scottish Cup Semi against Celtic would be played anywhere other than Hampden if it was available. But the point is they don't have to be. This game could be played at a neutral venue, not in Glasgow, be a sell out and would still be able to be seen on TV. Atmosphere would be miles better that will be generated at Hampden. Still maintain the SFA could have had our game on the Saturday which would have been a bit better than the Sunday. On a personal level, having the game on a Sunday makes it more difficult for me to travel to so am in danger of not being able to attend. Having been at all our major cup semi finals before, this really annoys me. What 'neutral' venue do you have in mind?! The Global Energy Stadium? ...lights would go out

Ironically, apart from his presence in the air, the one thing that has really stood out about Ofere at the home games is his excellent ball control at least when he receives the ball to feet. I would love to see a "front four" of Ofere with Doran, Christie and Watkins behind. That is where Watkins has been best. ...exactly the formation I've suggested since Ofere joined! I don't get the change to 3 at the back today. I don't think the defence was broken, so why switch it? I hope this was JH just trying something - might have been genius, but wasn't. Does he have the semi against Celtic in mind? I hope he's going to be a bit more ambitious then....
