Oh well, with Falkirk winning last night the postponement maybe wasn't so bad. It now means Dumbarton cannot catch Falkirk and will hopefully go into this with nothing to win. Saying that though, strangely we always play better against the better teams that press us hard on the day

Definitely this, we cannot allow ourselves to get carried away thinking a play off place is now expected, we've done incredibly well to get to safety win the cup and now go on a great unbeaten run, and hope realistically to finish as high as possible, anything extra is a bonus. If we fail to secure a play off spot I feel we've done enough to set a platform for starting fresh next season and getting off to the strong start we missed this season and establish ourselves very quickly as a deserved top 3 team at least. Saying that though if the players secure a play off place they will have pulled off an absolutely incredible feat and deserve the full support from every ICT fan in the country and we need to fully get behind everyone of them and that includes polworth, who again today got the brunt of absurd abuse from person(s) after getting a ball to the face. He didn't have his strongest performance granted, but he's still an integral part of our team and my experience of his personality tells me he needs support and encouragement not berating and ridicule. We need to stand behind robbo and the team and do all we can to help them push to the best possible outcome we can. As the old saying goes "United we stand, Divided we fall"

Great result, puts us in the driving seat for Tues night now and another step closer to maybe just maybe clinching that elusive play off spot. Even if we don't, simply finishing the season off the way we're going will lift the players and fans going into next season when we can hopefully do a Smirrurn of our own!

We're certainly consistent against Brechin, that's 3 times we've beaten them by that scoreline this season ?

Amon the caley, having to miss this one due to being away on holiday. Please please don't give Brechin their one and only league win of the season... Let someone else gift them that! Should be an easy one

Yeah that's the kind of random nonsense he used to suddenly pop up with, the sort of thing you'd expect from someone sitting at home in a dark room smoking weed, then whenever anyone politely disagreed with him he'd just ban them. He occasionally used to post stuff saying he hated everyone and was deleting the page completely, a threat I don't think he ever followed through on

Is that still active? I used to occasionally post and visit that page, the guy who ran it used to post somewhat bizarre things that he appeared to make up or find on twitter as fact and if anyone questioned it, his source of information or disagreed with his opinion he would instantly block them from his page. Hilariously ridiculous

The team should be holding their heads high after that result today. Not off to the best start granted, but then Stm were straight off the starting blocks and were pressing us heavily all over the park. We needed to settle and build the confidence and it never happened before the penalty was awarded. That could have easily killed off the game, but it never and the players still tried to match stm at every opportunity and did well to go in at HT 1-0 down. To have shown so much fight and then lose the 2nd would have broken many a team but we kept going, even against the absolutely ludicrous level of refereeing. I have never been one to slate referees too harshly, but in this case every insult thrown at him from the stands was completely justified. The guy was 100% biased and should be sacked for that performance. To not only fight back against a stubbornly good stm side and the referee from hell and secure a draw, we very nearly topped it off with a fine glancing header from young mckay that just a foot or do higher would have sent the TCS into chaos. Fantastic atmosphere and brilliant resilient performance from the players. Get the win on Tuesday and we jump back into 7th. Least we deserve. Ridgers was absolutely phenomenal.

According to P&J Robbo unlikely to play young Daniel tonight, pity after sat. Really hope Austin starts with Bell if not Daniel

Ah well just in from Perth .... We won the cup....and tremarco scored think that's about all I remember about the high points. Great performance by young mckay tremarco and Donaldson though. Daniel made all the difference

He deserves the point for going that long without pulling a hamstring

The one and only memorable thing Billy Mckay did for us in his 2nd spell was the late overhead kick against Rangers. Actually think that could be the only memorable thing of last season full stop

The first team players got a great rest for nearly a month due to multiple postponements as we all know, yet put in a lifeless and lethargic performance against Dunfermline. Asides from adding more injuries which will undoubtably happen in any case, there's no way he can prioritise players for what is in effect a low ranking cup final against the very survival of the club and its position in the cship

I never thought it was possible but so far this seasons been far more boring and depressing than last. If we fall to the playoffs I don't believe we are strong enough to beat the other lot

If we go down again the club will disintegrate. It's already falling apart and the fan base, already threadbare is fading fast. Im sure I'm not the only one who actually felt largely apathetic at the final whistle

Omg what a total embarrassment of a club, can we not just forfeit the game now to save ourselves further hilarity

Game off

Agree with everything in that post

Disgrace relegation playoffs here we come

Agree with that, and after having seen a lot of early positives from Elbouzedi and then out for such a long period, it was great to see his enthusiasm and quality at the Crusaders game. Still a potentially uncovered gem I feel. Plus I sometimes feel Bell would work better as a winger, with Austin and Oakley up front. Bell struggles a bit with pace and can struggle with timing his runs. This would also free up a space for Daniel Mckay on the bench to do what he does best and come on late to score the winner.
