Honours even at Half time. Both teams trying to play their own brands of football but neither really managing to pull anything off. Defensive mistakes and hesitations nearly gifted them a couple of chances. We also seem to be hisitsnt in moving the ball forward and choose to move it sideways instead much to frustration. Ruddy has made a couple of decent saves but looks a bit of a loose cannon at times. We need to perform much better in the second half

thanks for the update

What a great second half performance that was. Played exactly how I said we should to exploit Carlisle and even had the welcome surprise of Kenny demolishing anything that stood in his way down the left.

Power was brilliant for the half hour or so he was on; pace, trickery and end product was all there as well as a very well taken goal. His injury is worrying though, but going by the performance today from the team, we should feel confident going into next week.

Just want to also mention that I am currently travelling back home with a few Carlisle fans who are raving about how good a team we are. Say we are by far and away the best team they have faced over the last couple of summers and they loved their time up here. Seems we have a few new Staggies 😊

Carlisle came up to spoil and maybe grab a 0-0 or 1-0.

First half we had more shots but were poor. Paton, Power and Gardyne made a big difference. Worrying about Power, the minute he cushioned that ball and landed you could tell something wasn't right.

West stand linesman was an absolute joke.

Having been on the road the last couple of weeks and not made it to any games, from afar everything looked pretty rosy:

 

4 wins out of 4

12 goals scored

Only 2 conceded (1 pen)

3 strikers with 10 between them

 

So it's been interesting getting on here the last couple of days and reading quite a few concerns. Glad to hear today was so encouraging though, and definitely looking forward to the start of the season - which I'll be back just in time for 😀

Also the lesser spotted Kenny van der Weg has returned from his Eurohostelling tour.

When Kenny came on the in the second half Carlisle chucked a big unit in at right back- they didn't smash into each other at any point, which was disappointing.

Just checked the team sheet, his name was Aaron Hayden. Looked bigger on the pitch than what he does in a google search.

Aye, he's gone from brick wall to fortified concrete.

Is Power in contention for tomorrow? Not seen anything concrete to say either way

I thought he was out for three weeks?

Inverness Courier says that Power is out for a few weeks but there’s no confirmation of the type of injury yet.

They also mention that Erwin still hasn’t received international clearance.

That's a bit concerning in all honesty. Could it be a knock on effect from Tractor being under huge pressure from their FA and FIFA for financial irregularities etc? Kinda feel for Lee if clearance hasn't been recieved yet

Nice of Accies to send the young lads at Hamilton Academy and a few local bampots up to play us today. Let them see what a proper Premiership team looks like hahaha

Hamilton helped County to look good and to perform well in our first Premiership game.  Not the Hamilton we previously got used to and frustrated by.  The confidence from that game and a good run of early Cup results should help us make a decent game of the trip to Tynecastle next week. 

Come On You Staggies etc etc
