I see Morton have announced the loan signing of a forward from Motherwell. Looks like another one has slipped away. I wouldn’t be surprised if Imrie did this out of spite.

New statement saying that there’s been an amicable agreement which has saved ICT from administration, Short on detail but hopefully this really is. “The end of the beginning “

Any idea how long Cairns is out for, we lack a bit of height and bulk in the forward line

Cheers

Rebilas ?

It’s beginning to sound a bit better. I share everyone’s frustration at the lack of detail but given that we were led up the garden path by Gardiner et al about the car parks and the battery farm etc, I will grit my teeth and wait for the board to do their work and only announce developments when and only when they are 100% concrete. Morrison and Kelty are gone and Gardiner is going , the team will be focused on local talent , so most of the objectives have been achieved but unless we do buy our season tickets and our strips it just won’t work. I suspect there will be more hard days to come as we try and dig ourselves out of this hole but as somebody who stood on the railway sleepers back in the olden days it just might be worth it.

Now what ?

Is Brooks injured already ?

Cough .

His highlight reel on YouTube shows the boy can “finish” Is he the new Andrew Shinnie ?

Yep it’s speculation, that’s why I used the words “Could mean “ As far as being , proper, reasonable or the best thing to do , none of those mean it will happen either they mean that it’s the best outcome . I’d be delighted if you were right and I was wrong but I just have a nagging doubt. Maybe we can have this discussion same time next year and see what the story is. Cheers.

If you read the statement, it says it “should” see Billy stay until 2025. Could be a years contract with another years option. Still delighted he’s staying for at least another year

Panic over Billy has signed for another year. Source is 100% solid.

Have we/should we consider a mixture of full time and part time players

According to Ict stats, Tremarco has played 102 games over 4 seasons for Ict in the premiership . Just saying

Just watched Robbos post match interview, wonder who spat their dummy out ? My guess is his first name might be "Old "

Press and Journal is just as bad.

I seem to have made a complete mess of my reply and mixed in up with

Baird was never going to be , or ever has been a 20 goal a season striker , he was brought in to contribute about 10 and also runaround a lot and be generally annoying to the oppositions back four. Bell is quoted as our high scorer in some papers so why did he not feature in the discussion. We also have Austin who looks like a new " Ted McMinn " given that he doesn't look like he knows what he is going to do next so how a defender would is anybodies guess. Given that Daniel McKay is still at school ! and is probably studying for his highers as we speak he is not the answer. Doran , Oakley and Bell are the best we have currently , if and when Tremarco returns things will get better, if and when Mulraney sorts his sh-t out and contributes , things will get better , if and when Elbouzedi challenges for a place, things will get better, if and when our class midfielders manage to go without getting booked for more than 45 minutes , things will get better. Playoffs are the goal this season, I would love to see us there but I have my doubts and yes I would put us up against Hamilton, County and the other Thistle any day of the week.

I'll get my coat then......

Apparently he can play both midfield and defence, just a thought,it's not like I'm his agent or anything,. He's been paid off by County so our wages might just about be enough to tempt him to act as cover in both areas until the end of the season.

I see Van Der Weg has been let go by County, any good as cover for a defensive midfielder ?
