  1. Ill take a late soaking on the Y,if it means getting a late winner,....in the unlikely provider of Peter Ambrose 👍

     It was a patchy performance,but as others have said,you feel we're not seeing the finished article,but also confident that Jimmy sees the same thing,and theres still more to come from us.McGrath has been one of our more consistent performers,but he was pretty off it today,possibly as a result of not being used to the position he was in today,but hopefully he gets a run at it to see what he can do.We defended quite well,maybe missed Shinnies buzz in midfield.

       Interested to see the line up for Sevco.

    Duk showing he’s an impact sub. Not the right lineup and with nisbet injured expect an Ambrose sighting in second half. Odds on him scoring the winner??

    id switch palaversa for shinnie, shins drives forward. Clarkson to be creative and McGrath back to the left.

    😎

  3. Possibly,but even going by punters in the ground,I'd say its more nowadays.As i edited above there was only 8000 for our first home game after we won the league in 1980.Imagine if we won it now....

     

    Edit - Nah we played Utd in the first home game - 13'000,Morton a few weeks later in front of 9'600(AFC Heritage)

    Sold out. Club now have opened their season ticket exchange so some single tickets are up for grabs.

    That's 3,000-4,000 fans who are going who would be locked out if we build a 16,000 capacity stadium. 

    Some of the crowds we get nowadays are better than peak Fergie era,...ie post ECWC in 83/84 our average gate was 17'500 when the capacity was 24'000.Three of the first 4 home games of that season were were only 13/14'000. Funny how crowds have gone up,not only us,but across the board in Scotland, when competition in the top league is less than back then

       Come to think of it,the first home game of the season after we won the league in 1980,I think there was only around 8000 there,v Morton?    🙄

  5. Thats a shame.Not one of my favourite grounds to watch fitba,but Inverness is always good for a visit. Punched well above their weight for long spells,but there doesnt seem to be enough local interest to sustain that? Can only see them bouncing about the League 1 /Championship areas longer term,...if they come back from this

  6. Nae sure about dropping Molloy.Though still not 100% convinced about the Rubi/Molloy combo,If Jimmy thinks he appears to be learning as he goes,and the confidence hasnt dropped,I'd allow him to carry on with the odd mistake,...til otherwise.Maybe swap Clarkson for McGrath too?

       Looking forward to it,love a night game

    In - Y

    Will take a scrappy 1 - 0.   Duk
