Other than Hamilton and Queen of the South, all teams are Central, Fife and further north. That will reduce travel costs for the club.

“He’ll be dancing in the streets of Crystal tonight.”

Scrap that, goal disallowed.

Eagle4Caley will be even happier now.

To add balance, Caley Thistle had a pop up shop in the big Tesco on two consecutive Thursdays and Fridays, the first being in the lead up to the Arbroath game. I happened to be in and stopped for a chat and they’d had a lot of interest with a lot of people stopping to chat. They were in Eastgate at Easter too, with players making appearances. Community engagement takes time to build, but it is good to see the club trying again.

They are off to a good start. Here’s hoping they manage to win.

Zak Elbouzedi for St Pats on 2 May and tonight.

So we can look forward to winding Dick Campbell up again! Not upset at seeing Annan going down as it saves one marathon journey for the team.

Billy was reborn in the last three games. He (undeservedly IMHO) too some stick during his barren spell, but his influence on the younger players and his craft and guile cannot be understated. He didn’t expect to be playing 90 minutes most weeks, but the release of Brooks and injury to Bavidge forced it. Cairns was our only option and his departure indicates that he is maybe not ready for this level. Credit to Billy, he never hid. Next season, I hope we have a striker, signed or on loan, who can really take the weight off, so Billy is under less pressure. Is Keogh not a striker rather than a midfielder? If we lose Musa, bringing Gill back on loan could be a good option if he and Celtic are agreeable. I’m delighted to see the short term deals offered to Nicolson, Davidson and Corner. To me, that shows we’ve learned from how the likes of Walsh, Sutherland and Doran were treated, and want to give players every chance to get rehabilitated. Another welcome change by the new regime

Fortunately there are add on clauses in the deal with Dunfermline (as advised by Charlie Christie at the last Fans Meeting) so we stand to get a further financial benefit at some time.

Robbie Deas for Kilmarnock, Alex Samuel for County and Kai Kennedy for Queen of the South today.

Alex Cooper and Shane Sutherland for Brora on Saturday.

Thanks for running this again and well done Mrs Gringo who’s got the bragging rights!

Thanks DD, it was going for us winning 2-0 at Montrose that clinched it for me! That’s three in a row, which is amazing. I hope others join the competition next season for more enjoyable fun.

Well done to caleycalum but what a tight finish. A poor season for me, but I’m glad to have sneaked in to the top ten right at the death! Thanks to Gringo for running this and looking forward to next season.

Well done Kell, Billy and all the players on a tremendous achievement. Getting 7th given where we were and how we were playing at the time of administration is amazing. Here’s to next season!

Billy McKay won’t want the season to end: that’s 3 in 3 as we go 2 up. Gardyne hooked: I wonder what reception he got from the travelling fans…..

Thanks for all the previews and reports again this season: always informative and entertaining.

It was loud in Bar 94 after Saturday’s game when Danny was addressing fans, but I did think I heard him say he’d be staying.

ICT @ 2.1 please.

HT 0-1 FT 0-2 ICT Bray Montrose Stirton Crowd 565 Joker please.

Unlike League 1 (thankfully), this is going to the wire with only 40 points between first and third. Still all to play for before Gringo can claim the title…..

Roddy MacGregor for Queens Park today.

For those not there: Fans Awards: Musa Dibaga and Keith Bray. Players Awards: Charlie Gilmour and Keith Bray. Well deserved.

To quote Danny Devine when he spoke in the bar after the game, “it was never in f***ing doubt”.
