Futures Game

Recommended Posts

Anyone going along to this one? I had toyed with the idea but I think I best keep as much money as possible for all things ICT. More the cost of the train that puts me off more than anything especially when I will need to do the journey again for the Hibees game.

Hope there are loads of folk there cheering on the guys making their Scotland 'debuts' and hopefully someone will sing Happy Birthday to Ian Black :)

I take it our resident photographer will be there, but I'll try to remember my camera. If only to get a picture of Coisty. 8)

Now that I can host and post pictures there's no stopping me.

May also bring my camera along as well.... but I always feel daft taking photos unless it is an unusual occasion (ie. matches at Hampden). This one is a Scotland match though so qualifies... now, just need to charge the battery!

Well Sam what did you think of the game? Not really a classic. It was really strange sitting our own seats and not to have ICT on the park.

Nice to meet you by the way.

Indeed, lg, nice to meet you!! Freezing night though... Was Ally trying to prove a point by standing there in shorts?!

I took pictures, though most of them are blurred, as I wasn't going to be using my flash as that would draw way too much attention to me... will post the better ones (which are generally before the game started!).

Should add lg, that it was most definitely not a classic!

I thought Turkey were a far superior team technically, until the last 10mins when they resorted to play-acting to see out the win. They didn't need to do that in my opinion.

I thought McIndoe looked a decent prospect. Robson looked fine going forwards, but useless defending! Brown was fine... at the time I wondered if he should have saved the first (but my view was blocked by a Turkey player) and having read match reports I suspect it was deflected beyond him.

Dargo did well and certainly didn't look out of place... I thought that if Robson had actually set him up moments before the goal, it would have been Dargo who scored because he was in a fantastic position. But a goal nonetheless.

Black looked very good in midfield and worked very hard. I thought his first booking was very harsh... looked to me like another player tackled the Turkey guy, and then the Turkey player fell into Black, but Black got booked? What did you make of it? Second booking was probably fair enough, but any doubt was quickly removed by the Turkey theatrical association.

For me, Berra and Virgo are not "future" players, nor "current" players! I didn't understand why either started at all to be honest.

Duffy looked good, but then disappeared. Miller looked awful, but then got better.

Comic moment for me was the 4th official setting up the Board to sub Number 4 (Virgo) but then changing it to 6 (Robson) only for Ally to furiously shout that it was Adam they wanted off (I don't blame his panic!) and then for the 4th Official to blame it on the Board!

That was one of Turkey's better players.

Apologies for the blurry(ness) of the pictures... I blame lack of light and a reluctance to flash :oops:

If anyone particularly wants a copy of any of them... let me know and I can send full-size images (2200 x 1400 ish or whatever it is!).

Sam, I know how much you like finding glitches on the site, so your challenge, should you wish to accept it, is to upload those pictures to the Upload Album in the Picture Gallery.

I won't tell you how to do it, just the outcome I am looking for.

I won't all pictures in their own album within the Upload Album, I want you to name the Album and I want you to add comments to all the pictures.

Yes Jnr you are right it's been a great site without Joe public. But as we said on SN all good things must come to an end :lol::lol:

It was all in the interests of testing and believe me I well and truly tested them :shock: :lol:
