Is he not on a 3 year contract 

I think he'd walk and be back coaching at Everton faster than Gary Bollan could eat a couple of pies. 

Hopefully big Dunc leaves on 4th May. Then an Ian McCall type who knows the Scottish game and can get something from nothing comes in and gets us out of League 1 and back in the Championship for the 25/26 season.

Surely this is extremely premature? Are things really that bad? 

Nope. We will win all remaining games, get into the play offs and leapfrog County into the Premiership. Next season we will win the Scottish Cup and finish 3rd in the Premiership. All good.

Exactly!

Attendance at football matches is a balance between loyalty to your team and the entertainment gained from the match.

Having witnessed so many tedious, unentertaining draws and defeats at home this season (fortunately giving yesterday a miss!), it's hard to build myself up to face another home game, as the lack of entertainment has now overtaken the 'loyalty' factor for me.

I'd love to "get behind the team" if it wasn't such a tedious chore.

Sadly, as things stand, there's nothing worth seeing at Caledonian Stadium, and I can think of much better ways to spend my time and money!

Hopefully I'll have recovered from my current negativity by the next home game though!

 

 

 

My sentiments exactly. It's sad but true, but having given matches a miss for a few months now, it is amazing how easily you find other things to do on a Saturday afternoon that you enjoy and don't spoil your weekend.

If we get relegated with Large Duncan in charge I'd also say that could be the end of his managerial career. 

Don't think it even got off the ground.

He's got a job for life at Everton as he is a legend there. 

In this part of the world he'll be remembered as our worst manager in 30 years. 

Taxi for Ferguson still sounds about right. Make it a people carrier so Gardiner and Morrison can join him.

The only real action in the ground and you missed it

OK. I don't go to matches anymore as I've had enough of the CEO, the club not caring about fans, Ferguson's awful tactics and subsequent garbage performances etc etc.

Don't expect any of that will change anytime soon, so mapping out other interests on Saturday afternoon's etc will likely become the norm for me. 

Happy 30th birthday ICT, not!!

The Police? What's that about?

Eh, what are the police involved in?

This club is so unbelievably finished. And its all thanks to that muppet upstairs. Getting the police to silence the critics isnt a good look either...

The Police? What's that about?

I hope Morrison and Gardiner are asking Butcher to take us until the end of the season. This is dire...

Glad I'm paddle boarding at Loch Achilty instead of wasting my Saturday afternoon.

3 points a must tomorrow with tonight's result...

Realistically 8th will be fine but if we can convert draws into wins, I haven't given up hoope on 4th.

Aye, liked we'd want to get promoted with the s##t show we currently are.

If (and it’s a big “if” given our home form) we beat Ayr, and the two leaders win, we will be 6th this time next week.

It is hard to believe we are only six points off a promotion play off place. I can’t see us getting there, but the way this season has gone anything could be possible!

'Promotion play off place'

No way - Austin Samuels is not the answer, IMO only

You're not alone there. Stealing a wage IMO.

At least something has got your attention. 

100% increase in shots on target from the Dunfermline game. Progress?

Everyone at the match has probably fallen asleep given the BBC match stats. Those not there are probably drunk it seems.

Happy Saturday night. Been a while. Up to, eh 9th

Not my experience, I see plenty of shirt wearing young scrotes kicking about in Caley tops, and can't recall seeing many young Gypos clad in County colours.

Arm the arm holes in County tops bigger than average so they can get their 6 fingered hands through them?

Sadly I find myself having to agree.

Lacking a bit of passion on the pitch, And not showing a real sense of fight ( At home anyway) but maybe, Just maybe they will get the finger out today, Scrape a win and 3 very valuable points.

I sincerely hope so.

They win 3 - 2!

Arbroath- a club with unity, spirit and fight. Plus a manager used to relegation battles.

ICT - none of the above at this present time sadly.

How bad a watch was that ?? Embarrassing  game of football .If anything it’s getting worse .

Sounds like on a par (no pun intended) with the Morton new year 0-0 draw. Which was the worst game of football I can remember. 

Ayr, Airdrie and Queens Park winning makes it a bad night all round. 

How was the first half?

Welcome - Leeds supporter!  My beloved nephew, sadly deceased, was an avid Leeds supporter (despite living in Nottinghamshire), so I’ve also supported Leeds from afar.   You are welcome here any time and I hope you keep in touch with us ICT supporters.  

If 'LeedsSeasider' has read this thread he's probably thought, Jesus I'm giving those bumpkins a wide birth from now on.

I think the football team from the other city we are twinned with is more our level.
