Diamonds are Forever Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 13 minutes ago, Hampden Diehard said: That's ten times as positive as I could be after the last two games. Hope you're right. Not that it's needed but an extra incentive to take points off Dunfermline next week (please!), it will make your last game against us much easier. Looking back to last season we rested half the team in our last league game before the play-offs, so would assume we'd do the same if it came to that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 5 hours ago, sophia said: No, no he hasn't. To describe the job that he's done as decent would be doing him a disservice and underestimating the important role that he's played in his time with ict. He's been a very astute signing by our management team. Terrific news. Hopefully he's loving the Highlands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an86 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Lack of depth in the squad is there for everyone to see. Kids and guys who simply aren’t good enough for the Championship. There was nobody on that bench capable of changing a game or even creating a spark. Williamson came on and ran about a bit, but we need more than that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully agree that the squad needs a major overhaul however Davidson could still use these players better, and doesn't seem to have learned anything over the last 3 weeks. Thomson needs to play in midfield, Turner has to be further up the park if he's adamant about using him at all, and Robson is still our best option at LCB as he allows Scott to push further forward with a bit more confidence in what's behind him. The game plan of passing it out from the back until we approach the halfway line then punting it forward needs to stop as well, it's totally ineffective. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt for the guy tbh - he wasn't given much of an opportunity to make any kind of an impact. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By noise I was aiming at the many complaints on our thread and Twitter over Welsh being released, absolutely nothing to do with you asking one single question. And it's spelled genuine, btw. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to go somewhere and play a full season of regular football. Fact he wasn’t getting a game in League One and came back down the road from Cove probably tells us the level he’s currently at. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Tarmo Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I’ve said it before on our threads but everyone knows Welsh is a good player, he’d be playing at a higher level if he wasn’t constantly injured. The timing of getting rid of some experienced players (Welsh, Carson etc) during a relegation scrap, particularly to relegation rivals in one case, and replacing them with inexperienced loan players was certainly questionable. However, individually letting Welsh go wasn’t the poorest decision. Queen’s fans will realise this when he’s out with another long term injury. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be right, but so far, we have played 13 games since he joined & the only one he has missed was the one where he was suspended & he has played the full 90 minutes in all but 3 of them (one of these due to red card) So, so far so good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may as well have not been playing on Saturday. A loyal Caley man to the end is Welshy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll get months when he's fit then he'll pick up an injury where's he's on the sidelines for ages. He's already had his long term injury this campaign so you should be good till end of the season. What pissed a lot of ICT fans off including myself is that we let him go on a free transfer to one of our relegation rivals when he was actually fit. He actually wanted to leave in all fairness he had his house up for sale & everything but he would've stayed till the Summer to help us avoid the drop but like Carson we forced them both out prematurely. Lot of the games where we lost or threw away points by drawing we could've done with him in midfield getting a grip of the game. Fortunately for us we had his & Sheridans number on Saturday. It's not over yet though I can see us losing to Morton on the final day thanks to a George Oakley goal & Queens beating Airdrie after a Welsh scremer sending ICT to the relegation play offs we'll have to see how it goes.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he got injured & sent back to Everton. He wouldn't have been as good as Wotherspoon but he could've filled that attacking midfielder role We didn't even know Cammy Kerr could play in midfield when we signed him so if Dunc or the club try & make out he was Welsh's replacement all along they can f**k off with that. Samson looks decent so far but he was signed as an emergency to replace Gilmour way after we got rid of Welsh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
