I'm about to slate f**k out of Caley here so I'll try and start on a positive.

First 15 mins they played us off the park. Dominated the ball, bullied us whilst playing football, passing was crisp and accurate, movement very good and a well taken goal.

Why the f**k did they change and start time wasting when they went 1-0 up? If they had carried on that way they would have gave us 3 or 4.

They saw out the rest of the first half cynically but comfortably.

First half talking points.

1. Tremarco has to go. The foul was a booking anyway, he then kicks Greg, before grabbing his head and throwing him over. Why the f**k was Greg even booked? Disgraceful refereeing which set the tone.

2. Warren looked like he saved the ball in the box first half - I was screaming for a pen at the time. He threw himself to the floor to block a low cross but stopped it with his hand. Ref shat it unsurprisingly.

3. Roberts led with the elbow/arm on Julen and Gowser in the first half. Julen one could have been a red on its own but at least a booking, less of a view of the Gowser one tbf but at least a booking.

4. Ref let a number of professional fouls go before finally getting his book out. Caley still got 4 or 5 men booked in the first half. They were clearly targeting Harkins, Stewart and Hemmings. Glad the radio picked this up.

5. Never in my life have I seen a goalkeeper booked for time wasting in the first half - an absolute minter for him, his team, manager and city.

Second half talking points.

1. Keeper handles outside the box - straight red - not even a free kick. Minter.

2. Gowser nailed. Penalty - not given, minter.

3. Keeper continued time wasting at every opportunity - don't blame him - ref was never going to dismiss him for it.

Overall probably the worst refereeing display I've ever seen. I don't often go in on refs but he deserves every bit of it. Biased to the point of cheating IMO a truly horrendous display and I was actually at the point of accepting you will get this game every once in a while and I can't remember the last time a ref truly fucked us over so was willing to put it behind me.

Thankfully football prevailed. A quality 2nd half and Caley couldn't have complained if we'd won - our front 3 are usually assassins but all had an off day.

As much as he's an utter c**t Fon Williams played very well and kept them in it. Bain never had a save to make.

Been impressed with Caley vs Aberdeen and Celtic so just makes it all the more inexplicable for me seeing them turn out that shite.

Agree with all of that except for the football prevailing part. Any justice in the world and we win.

Cant remember such a woeful performance from a Ref.

The incident when the keeper dived on the ball with both hands in the D was crazy. Just an utterly shite performance from the ref.

Also - Some horrible anti- football from Inverness today vs some lovely one touch stuff from Dundee .

Nothing new really. They did the same thing last time at Dens too.

Anyway, moving swiftly on - tickets bought for Ibrox :D

The Mutombo red card in the last match was deserved, other than that you are stretching the whole "kicked us off the park" a bit.

Time wasting after 20 minutes is mintertastic. Especially when you'd previously been well on top and could easily have put the game out of sight by continuing in the same vein.

I don't think the keeper would have been booked at all if he hadn't had a heads gone moment and kicked the ball back to the ball boy.
