sophia Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 I can sense a real air of optimism surrounding this game and especially so within an ICTFC support who are expecting nothing less than a thrilling three points to propel us ever upwards. Saturday's game was strange with us passing up a great chance at the start of the first half and giving up a poor goal at the start of the second. It all ended up with Accies being well worth their victory. Notwithstanding the cup tie at Livingston, we have too many players that have much more than they're offering at the moment. Ordinarily I'd expect Deas to start but I'm unsure that the artificial surface is the best thing for him for a first game after his leg break. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ye Olde Hamiltonian Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 There have been plenty draws between the sides at the whateverwecallitthisweek stadium or am I imagining it? The away team will be smarting from Saturday,so a test if they are playing for wee Doddsy.Showing my age here, but often in his playing days,he would invariably be found in the local Hamilton nightlife after playing at either the old Douglas Park or Fir Park. I'll take a shitfest,crappy 1-0 win to see us move off the bottom.With players coming back from injury on the horizon, this would boosts for the run in for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottbamby Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 This one will tell us whether the players are behind Billy Dodds or not. I’m fully expecting another defeat, and SURELY that would mean he gets his jotters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Ooh look at us, we're Hamilton Accies, for some reason we always beat Caley now, we've got Armand One's son and we think we're amazing. Grow up Hamilton. No-one is impressed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Tunbridge Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 If my manager had us safe in the league and one game away from Hampden I’m sure I’d want rid of him too. Weirdos. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdu98196 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 All about expectations. No offence but other than a few ok years with Billy Reid what have Hamilton fans got to cheer about over the last few decades, so perhaps those low-bar achievements would be seen as success. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdos. Safe in the league might be acceptable at some clubs but most of us expect Playoffs at a minimum Last time we beat a full time team in the league was 7th October, we’ve had two wins in 14 league games. But aye we should be pleased because we’re 7th in the league and could get to Hampden 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdu98196 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Additionally, our squad is probably the 3rd best in this league (behind Dundee & PT) in terms of depth and strength along with a first 11 who should win most games. Its unlikely that there are too many teams if they had between 5-10 first team regulars most of a season out injured would still be mid-table in touching distance of the play-offs, however we are. So now that there are players returning and we are getting an strongest 11 with only 2-3 absentees we all expect to be doing a lot better as that's what we were told by the club (and a lot of fans). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdhafc1874 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Couple changes for Accies, Lewis Smith dropped to the bench & De Bolle out injured - looks like 3-4-2-1 Fulton Owens McGowan O'Reilly Tumilty Martin Lawson Shiels Winter C.Smith Tiehi 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it was Delaney for Shaw and Harper moving forward to midfield. Just change something from the weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the surface counts against Doran and Deas, fitness against Samuels and I'm not sure about the others, apart from young Cairns. Would his touch be any worse than Dan Mackay's? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
