ICT v Hamilton

[Scotty]

seemed to come from nowhere, even commentator description was **** because they were probably turning round getting ready for the HT pies

[SMEE]

Lets all blame Duncan for everything eh!! Nothing to do with the rest of the team at all.

HT 0-1.

Really doesn't sound like we played much football there - didn't hear Blackie's name mentioned with any reference to creativity or build-up play, and Imrie seems to have been pretty anonymous too, whereas both were very effective last week. Several references to Duncan carrying an injury and being below-par - maybe Brew shoud be thinking about bringing Rooney on early and moving Cowie back, with Black sitting in a bit more, provided he can time his tackles. May also be a case for introducing Wilson for Mcbain quite early if we don't start creating more.

Shame Duff seems to have been culpable for the goal - we're crying out for confidence in central defence, and i hope it doesn't affect him too much. Sure we can come back though - I predicted a 3-2 win and maybe the goal will open the game up and I'll be proven correct.

[EWS]

What did Duff do?

[Scotty]

Sounded like he had an easy clearance to make but it squirmed under his foot and into the path of Offiong.

Also sounds like it was others at fault that he got as far up the field though !!!!

Rooney on for Duncan at HT (hamstring injury)

[TheresNoEsInBlack]

I reckon the game will explode into life now and we'll win 3 - 2, don't worry folks.

So has Rooney come on then?

[Scotty]

So has Rooney come on then?

see 2 posts above yours.

Rooney / Barrowman combination sounding quite good.

Hibs 3-2 Falkirk at ER ... very entertaining sounding game

[Pele_Is_God]

Is that Robbo commentating???

[Scotty]

Yup. Robbo is co-commentator

3595 attendance just announced

[ALSY]

Att. 3595. Thought we might get more than that for a first game of the season (says he, sitting at home). Wonder how many Hamilton took up?

Sounding more encouraging this half, Rooney's contribution in particular.

[TheresNoEsInBlack]

Robbo says we're now dominating

[EWS]

Come on you bassa's.

[ALSY]

Wilson for Cowie. Suppose that makes sense given that Rooney is now playing Cowie's starting role, but I always like to see Don on the field. Haven't really heard Mcbain mentioned at all this half.

[Pele_Is_God]

Shocker from Hastings, haven't heard that for a while!

[ALSY]

Rory for Duff :o

Can't criticise Brew for being too cautious

[EWS]

In other news, Bayne just scored for Dunfermline.

FT ICT 0-1 Hamilton

Very poor performance

[SMEE]

BOO HISS BOO! Back down to earth with a massive bump!

[ALSY]

FT 0-1

Brewster's tactics seemed good to me - start with last week's line-up then make changes early if it isn't working - but it sounded like we didn't really start playing until we went a goal behind and Hamilton packed the area, defended well and we didn't have the quality to break them down. Will be interested to read the reactions of those who got to the match.

Always really disappointing when your early season optimism takes its first knock, though.

James MacArthur got MOM

[CaleyD]

That was Sportsounds MotM....I thought I heard them announce Duff as the Matchday MotM just at the end?

[Scotty]

Sportsound MOM is more accurate i think (normally) ... the stadium MOM is usually a home player and picked by a person or group who are well oiled from hospitality.

[MissICT]

What was that?

the game was shoking!

What were the team on?
