Hampden Diehard Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Great shame. Despite the decent forecast for tomorrow, it depends on whether the grass is frozen under the snow. Personally, I'd be up for chancing it. An afternoon in one of Inverness' many burlesque establishments would be very agreeable if the game was off. Nice place, nice people, I have found. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CityDave94 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Quite a bit of a thaw just now with much of the snow disappearing. Walked across a park and the ground is soft under foot not frozen so at the stadium with that grass being covered by snow the ground would have been protected from freezing. Though there is a lot of ice about on the roads and pavements. Could this be a tactical delay ploy while we wait on even more players coming back? Allardice and Samuels could be included I've heard.

I’d hope we’d do similar if we were getting players back and the other side were likely to make changes. Got to do whatever you’ve got to do to make sure you’re in the most beneficial position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CityDave94 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Would it annoy a lot of folks if the Clach game over on the other side of the river is played tomorrow? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Soo-sider Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Drove up from Aberfeldy to Inverness today - roads absolutely fine all the way. Had a look over at the Thistle ground as I passed and it was as white as the artic. Although a thaw is now forecast it's probably better that the game is off. Tuesday 31 - bring it on! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aww aye looking at the lineup against us, I forgot Ridgers, Billy McKay, Devine, Welsh, Carson, Henderson and Daniel McKay make up the backbone of the Inverness reserve side.   Edited January 20, 2023 by qpfc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have fluctuated from around 5 to 9 first team players out injured this season, so by any respect that means 'reserves' have been playing mostly. None of which changes the fact that the league leaders couldn't beat a mid-table team with (by your list) four first team players missing - definitely points dropped rather than one gained. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyCromarty Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Tomorrows Clach game has also been postponed due to the pie oven being on the blink. So no football at all this weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying too hard Don’t think a lineup defines whether or not it’s points dropped. Even still, You’re on form, at home and had a lineup on the pitch which could compete with almost everyone in the league still and that cannot be denied. Saying that lineup is a reserve side is entirely inaccurate. A point away from home to a resurgent Inverness side is absolutely fine. We had chances but equally it took a save of the season from ferrie to stop us losing. Don’t understand where the term ‘points dropped’ comes into that bracket If anything it’s points dropped for yourselves considering the wild talk prior to the game of going for the title Edited January 20, 2023 by qpfc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with an away point against an experienced club like Thistle. It was a great game with both sides playing good football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beating two teams who I think most will confirm are dross even by the standard of this league is not resurgent, however I don't want to belittle the achievements of QP last wknd. The fact that teams still see results against us as positives is clearly a testament to our strength when more players return considering there is nobody 'out of sight' in the title race.  0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
