    Our squad will, and should, look very different next season. I'm still not entirely convinced by Jim Goodwin, but fair's fair, he has done exactly what was asked of him. 

    I thought he was brought in to stop you being relegated last season. Major fail on that one. Lucky to be given the chance to try to get you promoted. Everyone thought it would be a procession and early coronation, which it wasn't. Still a success for him though, so credit where credit is due with that. Will he be able to keep you in the top league? Only time will tell, I suppose. Like yourself, I'm not overly convinced. 

    Anyway, congratulations on getting over the line and all the best for the new season and worshipping at the shrine of Jim Goodwin 🫣😄

    Weird that John Robertson, ICT Sporting Director apparently, was referring to the home team using every descriptor but "we" or "us"

    Throw in his Sportsound commitments most Saturdays when his employers are playing and it's definitely a strange one. Can the Caley fans can shed light on a Scottish footballing mystery?

    No. But as an outsider looking in Scott Gardiner his HoM pal from the past probably could.😉

    Wonder what sort of contracts are being dished out along at the Falkirk stadium. 

    Did Smudger take his Mrs with him when he signed on there? 

    I would think that they'd be similar, if not slightly more, than ours. Average home crowd could possibly be a bit higher than ours . Not too sure on that one though given we've had gates against the Pars and United which League 1 wouldn't get near.

  4. Reading the FFP headlines it reads to me that it's fairly obvious that Ian Murray doesn't see Ross as being a key player no matter what league we end up in. He'd have been offered terms by now if he was, similarly to Lewis and Sam.

    Methinks, John and Smudger will likely be all over Ross to sign him at the first available chance.

    You can see why play-off teams from the Championship don’t get promoted. Watching Ross County dominate spells against Rangers I don’t see how we could live with them.

    Simon Murray and Dhanda are a good front two

    Interesting to learn that County are unbeaten at home since Don Cowie took over as interim manager.

    PS How many games have Rangers been awarded a penalty this season? It feels like that it's almost every game!

    It’s a weird one because if you’d told us as a fanbase at the beginning of the season that we’d finish second without any further context, you’d better believe we’d have bitten your hand off for it. But knowing where we’ve been at times this season and not capitalised on it, it’s totally understandable that folk are going to be disappointed or even annoyed because if we had, we’d have a chance to be decently clear at the top of the table. 
     

    So aye, after last season’s abject disappointment, finishing second is of course a hell of an achievement. But you can’t blame folk for wondering what could have been if only we’d been able to beat Airdrie at least once

    And don't get me started on Arbroath!!☹️

    anyone know todays attendance

    I don't think I would know them all but there would definitely be some that I would, if I had been there! 

    That's me kinda demob happy now but would hope we can get back into a bit of form in the last three games. On current form we'd be doing well winning any of them. A five or six nil scudding against one of the three would fill me with hope again for the Championship final. It's been a decent season whatever happens from now.

    That's the point we needed for 2nd, about all you could ask for 

    Could have asked for a goal or even maybe two but again we got the lucky defensive breaks. Fortunate to get a point and despite coming in second we are going to struggle in the Championship play off never mind the final one unless things improve dramatically. Three games to go. Will we win any of them? I would like to think so, but I'm struggling to see where a win will come from, including Arbroath, on current  form.
