Inverness CT -V- Ayr United - Preview

[ymip]

Same story every week. We dominate posession but do nothing with it. Passing is generally atrocious. Opposition goes up the park and scores from their solitary attempt. We huff and puff and generally look incapable of scoring. It's absolutely soul destroying. If we get nothing out of today we really need to be looking at a radical change of direction.

[Satan]

We are the diddy men.

[+MrCaleyjag]

Beginning to feel like groundhog day: get to Saturday; optimistic about the game; think our furtunes will change; game kicks off; get to half time

Sigh  

Remember when we used to be able to get to half time at 0v0, I'd take that as a bonus 

Things need to change, right now. Could be BDs biggest team talk to date

Yep because it could be his last and rightly so because this form is nothing short of abysmal and totally ******* unacceptable! 

[Yngwie]

Game over, season over.

[WYNESS101]

More poor defending 

[Dan Clark]

Change is needed and until such times I'm afraid things will continue on a downward spiral  

[WYNESS101]

Carson sent off   

 

[+MrCaleyjag]

The last time we were this bad and we all spoke like this was when Foran was in charge and look how that ended.

Had we not got 19pts from the first 7 games we'd be in that said same situation.

Everyone is asleep at the wheel and drastic change is needed now.

[CaleyTennis]

Surely to **** this dud will be GONE by Monday, even our chairman can't be stupid enough not to act. 

 

Every single one of them owe us an apology because its just abysmal! 

[+Fraz]

Absolutely garbage. Literally nothing positive to take from this 'performance'. 

Drastic action needs to taken but I figure we'll limp our way to the playoffs if we're lucky. 

[Yngwie]

The more time Dodds has had to impose his methods and make this his team, the worse we get.

[RednBlackComeback]

Off you pop Dodds !

[Kingsmills]

It would be a mistake to say that our season is falling apart.

It actually fell apart weeks ago with a few poor results by our opponents papering over the cracks which have now become crevices.

Our coaching staff are clueless and have no idea how to arrest the decline.

We might just pip Partick or Raith Rovers for the final play off place if we are lucky but have no prospect of progressing through the play offs on current form.

Time to turn our minds to next season and, within our limited resources, have a serious think about what coaches and players we need for a proper sustained promotion push.

Bitterly disappointing from where we were. Too late to save this season but it is patently obvious, even if it wasn't before, that root and branch change is required.

[ymip]

I'm sorry but Dodds has got to go after this debacle. Another absolutely pitiful performance with no sign of any coherent game plan. We are a club in freefall. 

[+Naelifts]

Failure from top to bottom. I've no idea what the answer is

[+old caley girl]

Where do we go from here? I dunno....

[WYNESS101]

Great cross 

2-1 last push in the last 5 to get a point

I can’t explain why, but I’ve a good feeling about Saturday’s game and am looking forward to a home win.

I am pleased that I could not bring myself to share your optimism.

That would have been even more crushing and soul destroying.

[Kingsmills]

I have no interest in hearing what Billy Dodds has to say post match.

I have heard it all before and it wore very thin a very long time ago.

 

[ymip]

Tokely nailed it on comms; no workrate, no heart, no desire. 

[WYNESS101]

Ayr Utd by far the better team then again we make alot of these teams look good with terrible defending.

10 games left now wonder if we can do anything to end on a high. Maybe enough to stay in a play off place then again not holding out much hope off going up via the play offs

Only thing that changes in his talks is the team name we are playing against.

Agreed. If it were a lack of skill or ability that was the main issue that would be easier to take.

However, the bigger issue is a lack of desire and commitment which is very much harder to stomach.

[Yngwie]

The ease with which poor teams from the bottom half of the league can come up here and get a comfortable 3 points without having to do anything special is pretty sickening.
