matchday thread up early as I will be at tomorrow's game with a bunch of friends and unlikely to see the light of day for a while  

[MorayJaggie]

Hopefully Oakley and Austin start.

Hard frost this morning I hope the pitch is fine, looking forward to this game.

Thought that as well but the ICT account is still tweeting about ticket offers (or something) and nothing about a pitch inspection so I'll take that as good news!

The USH is good for a bit of frost. Just can't cope with much rain.

I was just in getting my tickets and speaking to Tommy the groundsman, he was saying ground looking pretty good and unlikely to be affected by any weather between now and 3

2017 was one of those horrible anus thingies with a well deserved relegation followed by a dismal start to the new season. But after we tightened up at the back there was at least a glimmer of light at the end of the annus.

Looking back, I see we won our first fixture of each of the last 3 years, so let’s keep that going and get 2018 off to a good start.

[Caley Stan]

I'll lay out this team just to try and get my head around it. Many surprises:

                           Ridgers                          

McKay  Donaldson  Warren  Chalmers

                   Trafford    Vigurs                  

       Mulraney    Polworth    Doran

                            Oakley

                            Oakley                             

I'm guessing it's 3 at the back.

CaleyStan's team makes sense but could also be:

 

-------------------------------Ridgers----------------------------------

-------------McKay----Donaldson---Warren------------------

Mulraney-------------------------------------------Chalmers-----

----------------Polworth--Vigurs---Trafford--------------------

----------------------Doran-------Oakley-----------------------------

 

the fact that Raven and Calder are on the bench says to me that we aren't going four at the back.

Don't have a very good feeling about this one tbh. 

 

[Caley Braveheart]

1 - 0 up but down to 10 men

[+Hiro]

At least we're well practice in playing with 10....    disappointingly one of Vigurs yellow cards was for mouthing off which is infuriating.

Why did Polworth & Vigurs get booked in the first place? BBC Live Text is its usual effusive self.

Polworth for the foul, Vigurs for mouthing off at the ref for said foul.

[Caley Mad In Berks]

As I said on the Brechin thread, discipline seems to be a real problem for us this season. High time Robbo got it sorted before it costs us dearly.

Anyway, lets see if we can see this game through.

[+Hiro]

Think Vigurs unlucky to be sent off notwithstanding the stupid first yellow.  He tried an overhead kick in Livingston box and was booked for high feet/recklessness.

Scottish ref in bad decision shocker. 

[Caley Braveheart]

Livi score

 

1 - 1

[cif73]

Vigurs and stupid yellows seem to go together like peas and carrots. He's learned nothing from St Mirren and has cost us again. 

[Polo Chick]

People wonder why Vigurs is given a hard time this is why he just cant keep his mouth shut always mouthing off at the Ref's time he got a bollocking from Robbo

 

[KennySim93]

Decent point I guess, but definitely sounds like we've cost ourselves 2 points.

[Eagle4Caley]

Gripping stuff following that at work, I guess I would have taken the point given the sending off...if we could have just kept 11 on the park!

Still thinking we'll eventually get into the play-offs

[MorayJaggie]

Howling refereeing we lost two points to 14 men today absolutley raging at that referreing display.
