Yes, their lack of match fitness and game time could be an issue for them. On the other hand our heavy schedule leading up to this game will not do us any favours either I don't think. Back to back games against Raith Rovers and then Pars away all in 12 days leading up to this tie. Injuries, managerial turmoil, lack of confidence within the team give me concern that this banana skin is bigger than we think.

Didn't we set some kind of record a few years back by going 100+ games without a 0-0 draw? You may have a point, players trying to put themselves in the shop window for a chance to earn more money and escape.

Buckie will be well up for this cup tie exactly the same as we would have been back in our HL games. Taking on a higher placed team who are out form is on ideal chance to cause an upset. At this point in time I wouldn't relish an away tie in Dingwall if I'm honest.

Awful, just awful. Can't score. Can't defend. Can't pass. Pub team. Gutted. Sad times.

Based of the current form tables over last six games: Home: ICT W1 D4 L1 Away: Morton W1 D4 L1 Can't help feeling nervous to be honest

I'm not so sure they have Jed to be honest. We lack that ability to create good chances and break down stubborn defences. We can't keep the ball and are experts in sloppy passes and giving the ball away. The long ball doesn't work. Hopefully things will click on Tuesday, they have to. Lose that one and we are in serious trouble. Back to back games against Raith after this then it's Pars. I'm worried.

Another disappointing venture to Alloa. bughtmaster, CaleyCanary and caleycalum got maximum points in the First Scorer section.

Yes, very much hoping for a win but my confidence is low. Only the players on the pitch can put that right. Only one point separates the teams over the last six games. This is going to be a very nervous afternoon.

Yes of course he should play against RR he is still on contract to ICT. Why give RR any further advantage by not playing him? As for the cup final, that's an interesting question, should the tie (ever) be played next season. In my view it's still the 2019/20 competition so he should play for us or not at all

I understand your anger, I think we all do. We are we are and have no finances for wholesale changes. We have to go with what we have. We have also been dogged by injuries which hasn't helped. The current disruption with the management team is beyond the control of the club but they have done well to secure an interim manager. This hasn't helped out cause on the pitch. As the song goes...things can only get better. [They have to]

After all the positives from the Hearts game, that was a real let down. 4 wins from 16 league games is not the form required for promotion.

Well, I think that is that for the season. We're just not good enough. So sad especially after Friday's performance against Hearts. My confidence has vanished.

Ah..no wonder I couldn't find it, thanks @Robert I should have put it in a separate thread but guess I was just being lazy At least it's up to date now and easier to find (and edit)

Felt sure I posted up the Joker entitlement for this season but it would appear not. Your Joker can be played in any game including bonus points games. Just note that any bonus points won will not be doubled.

Have to be happy (I suppose) with a point at our record breaking match. Just over 11000 invisible spectators, brilliant effort from everyone especially Hearts. Hopefully my abacus hasn't overheated with all these bonus points and Jokers played. Just to remind those that played their J they're not valid on the bonus points - points. SOS gets max points in the Correct Score section Joonya gets max points in the First Scorer section And it's Ton Up Robert in the table.

Quite enjoyed that. Balance of play I suppose Hearts might have won it on points but hey, it was a good end to a week of turmoil. I hope Robbo and Scott have taken some comfort from this result and performance. ICT are in good hands just now boys. Even though I was watching on the box it was as if I was there. During the day I'd been building up to the game by posting updates on Facebook of my virtual trip up from Coventry 0 on the motorcycle. I left home at 0800 and got to the stadium around 1720. One or two thought I was actually travelling and they pointed out that I shouldn't be travelling from England to Scotland due to it being non essential travel and dear Nicola said it's against the law Anyway. I though we played well and deserved the point. The ref was whistle happy and stopped the flow of the game. Craig Gordon needs to grow a pair after his spat with Carson. And there really should have been an early red for whatshisface of Hearts.

Cheers CC. Keeping up with this competition is a doddle compared to the other Prediction League. That one involves all Championship games and it's a constant check to look for dates of rearranged games. Keeps me out of the pub though....oh!...wait!

I hear you CB. I struggle with the mid week games too. Especially when it comes to keeping up with the postponements and rearranged dates and then trying to post them on here in time.
