I'll take that lineup. Really hope Rory has a stormer and Black keeps his head...

Very experienced bench.

brewgiving black and rory  chance,let,s hope they tak it

[RossP]

1-0 after 32 seconds. Imrie  :021:

Although Sky Sports has it that Gretna went 1-0 up with Imrie scoring an OG. Then corrected it to 1-0 Inverness CT with Skelton scoring an OG.

Glad i'm listening to it on the radio as I could've sworn very loudly if i saw 0-1 scoreline come up, whilst drinking in the pub.

[Alex MacLeod]

BBC has it as Skelton o.g

Agree with Marty. really hope Ian and Rory take this opportunity to shine.

[Scotty]

Zibi getting a start as well. Is this to try and persuade him to stay?

[Alex MacLeod]

Anyone know who's got the armband

[Harry Chibber]

Get in Rory... LEGEND!!!

[Alex MacLeod]

2-0 now. Well done Rory :021:

[Alex MacLeod]

[Harry Chibber]

2-1  :018:

THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT... THE FUTURE IS RORY!!!

[Alex MacLeod]

Seems like Zibi had no chance with the goal. Rossco, why are you giving away fouls at that end of the pitch?

[Guest CaleyJaggy]

Looks like we have lost another goal from a set piece.  We really need to sort out our defending at set pieces as we seem to lose an aweful lot of goals at set pieces.

[Scotty]

"training mentality" - Irvine has mentioned this a few times now and seems to describe how we are playing.

just denied a penalty claim  :008: :008: :008:

Looks like we have lost another goal from a set piece.  We really need to sort out our defending at set pieces as we seem to lose an aweful lot of goals at set pieces.

That could be said for teams against us as well. Everyone practises the execution of free kick but not the defending of them

[CaleyD]

Lacking height in defence which is leaving zibi a little exposed on high balls but he's mopping up well and his distribution puts fraser to shame.  We switched off a bit after second goal.

[Harry Chibber]

Everyone practises the execution of free kick but not the defending of them

I'll be surprised if there is a professional club anywhere that doesn't practice defending free kicks religiously... and especially with the amount we have lost throughout this season you would think Brew would have emphasised it

[Harry Chibber]

yaaaassss Bazza

[ictchris]

3600 odd the crowd - very surprised, I was expecting around 1000 less than that.

[Scotty]

3639 - yup higher than I expected too ... went for 3312 in the NPL which included an allowance for extra 'kids for a quid'

[Scotty]

4-1  :003: :003: :003: :003: :003: - Don Cowie
