  1. kingkojak, if you re-read my question you will notice it is in the present tense. "Also who are Watson and Wood. Do they show promise".

    Do they show promise, not did they show promise. The question is directed at anyone in the know, who may even know the players in question, and who is able to answer it sensibly. It was not intended to meet with a sarcastic response.

    I dont recall either of the two being mentioned before as squad players so was curious as to their standing.l

  2. Yesterdays P & J reckons Elgin would like to borrow Foxy cos one of their middfielders suffered a leg break last weekend. Apparantly the Fox had been waiting on Livi to get rid of someone so they could afford to take him on loan. Bad show if Livi cant pay him but Elgin can. Personally I think a few months of first team football at Borough Briggs would be better for him. And I hope he comes back to us a better player and one who can keep a regular place in future. I think he has the talent but his footballing brain is a bit slower to develop.

  3. Fraser

    Fox, Proctor, McCaffrey, Golabek

    Hart, Duncan, Keogh, Morgan

    Bayne, McAllister

    Subs – MacKenzie (GK), Sutherland for Golabek (45 mins), Soane for Keogh (75 mins), Watson, Wood for Bayne (64 mins).

    Above is the lineup for the recerve game against Aberdire taken from official site. Assuming the lineup was as written then its a rather strange back four. Every one out of normal position. Was that how they actually started and if so was it working, even though they did get beat.

    Also who are Watson and Wood. Do they show promise.

  4. United have matched ICT valuations for Black and Proctor, but are met with silence!

    DU offer £30k. ICT valuation £40k. Where's the match?

    Why would a player who has requested a transfer retain the captaincy?

    Dods has retained nothing. Golabek is the club captain, Dods was a stand in.

  5. Spot on CD

    The only thing that makes most teams bigger than us is the size of their debt and the number of seats in their stadium. Other than that they all have the same aim.....to be successful at the highest possible level. Even the East Stirlings of the world have aspirations, though they may not have the same expectations.

    ICT is able to give direct employment to near a hundred people, with a lot more than that indirectly involved. Surely that makes us quite a big club by Scottish standards.

  6. Let him go, let him go! His hearts not in this club! I disagree on both counts. First, where do we find a replacement in a hurry that will guarantee to give what Dods has. Second, he is a professional footballer who knows he has to always play to his best, regardless of whats going on around him, if he is to attract the type of interest he seeks.

    Darrens main problems are not that he doesn't want to play for ICT, its more his personal life that seems to be dictating what he must do.

    I am confident that the machine will still honour his position and give his all whilst he is still playing for this club.

    Finally, the club are always expected to honour their part of any contract and so should the players. If we agree to one transfer request does that then open the floodgates to others who may think they can just walk out whenever they wish.

    I'm also sure that if the right value is offered for any player they will be sold on. So if the money is right Dods will go.

  7. I would say, and I hope Graham Bayne reads this, if you get the starting position over the other candidates then make it stick. If the lad is good enough he'll be a regular, if he's not then so be it. I certainly wouldn't be critisising him before he's had a chance to show whether or not he has what it takes this season.
