Stellaboz Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Zero chance, it's already been in the papers a lot about Martindale saying he's coming back to be a first choice player for us Pretty please? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie Perrin Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Apparently we drew 1 - 1 in a bounce game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubbychops Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 https://dafc.co.uk/story.php?t=DAFC_Board_Statement_&ID=13512 Sounds like Pars voted against continuing with the games but were out voted. Decided to go crowd free and not bother with 500 fans. Totally understand the clubs decision. Total disgrace from the Scottish Government. Far more covid spreading environments allowed to continue. Financial support better be on it's way. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Waste of time playing the games with no crowds. Can’t imagine there will be much uptake on the streams, other than ST holders who get it for free anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Not sure I necessarily agree with the decision to play with no crowd at all tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
par-adise Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Is there any reason we can't move the ICT game to the cup weekend as we're both out? Genuine question. SFA rules or something? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I get why they are going with no fans. There just isn't enough time to get everything in place for having fans there. 15 minutes ago, par-adise said: Is there any reason we can't move the ICT game to the cup weekend as we're both out? Genuine question. SFA rules or something? No reason. Games have been moved before to cup weekends before when clubs are out of the cup. Maybe they asked ICT and ICT said no? There's no advantage to them of moving the game, but some to us. If it's moved they will probably be playing a better team, as would have at least a couple of signings in and potentially Thomas back. We'd also have the home crowd too. Play it as scheduled and they go up against the same dross with no Thomas and no home crowd (even though it would have been a low one). Certainly if I was making such decisions at Inverness I'd say no for the exact reasons I've just outlined. But that's just speculation. Maybe the club didn't ask for it to be moved. I don't know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Have some faith in Magic Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Scott Gardiner is probably still seething that the league didn't get abandoned to help Sevco so won't agree to any change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite possibly. You would hope that after the last two years clubs would want to do whatever they could do allow a normal fan experience, despite any perceived sporting advantage otherwise. And who at ICT wants to travel down to Fife on a dreich night on 29th Dec? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine question. SFA rules or something? Likewise our game v Hamilton on Jan 2nd. I'm not sure if we've considered asking yet but I'm pretty sure the SPFL would reject it anyway. They are very conscious of the expectation of a wave of postponements in the New Year for both Covid and weather and will not be keen to allow clubs to voluntarily defer games that could be played back to a date they might need for something else later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoBNob Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Is he not a left back? Was highly rated at Partick. Glad we're targeting one of the weaker positions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghLivi Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 (edited) Good player although I don't think Martindale rated him as highly as the fans. Signed as an emergency initially but he had a great run at left back prior to COVID ending the season. We then signed two left backs last summer and only played centre back from then onwards. Surprised he has been without a club for so long. Edited December 23, 2021 by EdinburghLivi 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Yeah, I’ve always like him. Was good at Partick. Would be a great signing if he is fit. One of the positions we are weak in. Edwards just hasn’t got it and there is no immediate back up there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
