Ebbe Skovdahl once made a jolly remark about statistics and their similarity to mini-skirts.

Matchday Thread Inverness CT -V- Queen of the South
Satan replied to Scotty's topic in Caley Thistle
I will say one thing regarding White yesterday - he had the ball played up to him about 6 or 7 times in the first half, medium height and pace in to the body, just needs a cushion touch then a turn & pass...this was accomplished 0 times. Obviously playing back to goal isn't his forte. -
Matchday Thread Inverness CT -V- Queen of the South

Think Dorans time might be at an end up here, lost any pace he may of had and takes forever to release the ball. Hasn't been influential at all of late. Didn't realise it was Donaldson who sold himself with a Dobbie turn for their second, not his best moment in an ict shirt...Surely it was for McKay to do that whether he was man marked or not. Poor, weak finishing again apart from Walsh's 2. For some reason in the build up to our goal 3 guys went to challenge White, leaving acres of space for us to capitalise. I'm afraid the balance of play had begun to tip in Queens favour after we went 2 up - midfield overrun the point of dropping off and our front two just don't track back, especially Austin. -
Or is it clear that no one, board included , are desperate to put the club to the brink - again. Don't think it's really clear how perilous things were just a short while ago...getting rid of Drapers wage and banking 100k in the process made a hell of a difference. Might not seem like much but that's where we were, and are not to far on from at present. Reality check. Out of the 10 teams in the championship we are 6th in wages for players - where are we in the league ? Answers on a postcard...

Utter dross. Couldn't raise their game two weeks in a row. Still unable to capitalise on chances. We scored after going two up front, but lost the midfield battle ,predictably. Not sure where we go from here. -
He could bag a spot in our front line then.
-
Regarding McHattie ,Official ictfc bio says left side of defence or midfield...makes more sense than just left back.
-
Not a bad move, nor is it inspiring...Not exactly a player to come on and change a game either.
-
Strange signing, as he only plays full back - I'm still waiting for the signing of the guy robbo said could play on either wing... Looks like a proven goalscorer won't be incoming then.
-
Surely not...

Rather than goals per start, how about goals per shot, or per shot on target. The fact is we are creating enough to win most games comfortably - having two misfiring strikers rather than one ( whilst surrendering midfield numbers) won't help the cause in most cases. This isn't a particularly new issue, we haven't been converting chances for two or three years now. We've tried different combinations and in desperation thrown forwards on in games but it has seldom done much good. Quality, not quantity.

We could play with 3 or 4 strikers, what difference would it make if they can't hit the target? We create more than enough chances. We need one striker who can score.

Aye, that's a trip down memory lane. Some long forgotten names there.

We've been the better team every time we played them, yet they sit top of the table. Hopefully we can apply ourselves equally well against the other 8 teams in the division. Do that and we can maintain our play off aspirations.
-
It was there for the taking. Twice as many strikes as County , but come up short again.

Another for Boden today, James Vincent adding another to the slaughter at Falkirk.

So Oakley misses out with big Jord stepping in for him...could be a very long afternoon. Good to see Daniel back.
-
At least we now know whose shoe it was. That was quite puzzling for a bit.
-
...in games obviously. Best not to start him in the festive derby game, or even bring him on chasing the game if we're a couple down. Don't think he's the type to hold back in a 50/50 which could easily end up with him out for longer.
-
Hopefully not required tomorrow, four months out means he won't be match sharp. Needs to build up game time.

Owain F Williams--he should try the Vancouver Whitecaps

Probably doing a spot of painting. Apparently he's a bit of an artist... -
Poor lad, seems he's been hard done by. ?
-
Well, just got shot of one balloon, no point risking signing another.

Going back a bit with Pele, who played 4 defenders, 4 midfielders and I'd say 2 up top. Same Pele?
