Anyone else notice how crap we are from corners.

That's because your team is mainly populated by little guys which made defending from corners a piece of pish for the Caley big guys.

That was very evident today where time after time any effort towards goal by your forward players was easily snuffed out by our defense.

You really need to get some beef in midfield and up front.

Easiest home game ICT will have all season.
No movement, no creativity, no threat.
Utterly woeful.

Dunno, our reserves and under 18s combined XI absolutely bummed Morton a couple of months back.

You're correct re beef up front. With our current set up we have to play very good football to create chances. We have done this on numerous occasions this season, but at the moment are on a horrendous run of 6 defeats in the last 8 games and can scarcely string 2 passes together.  Good time to play us. .

Not disappointed at today's result. Expected nothing. Never do against ICT.  What's really disappointing is the performance. Was hoping for a reaction after Tuesdays totally abysmal display against a crap Dunfermline. Next 2 games absolutely crucial now. Anything less than 6 points and we're in deep shit.

Anyone know if the comfortable win for The Caley was due to any of the following:

- The biased referee
- Physicality of The Caley players
- Poor team selection
- Our best midfielder in the dugout for 75 minutes.

Probably the bottom 2.

One of our corners went out for a throw in...

Their first goal came from nothing, as did their second. Total joke. We came out in the second half and did well, passing it on the deck, creating chances. Then for whatever reason we can't connect multiple corners, and they punish us. Mark Kerr... see you later. The difference over the past 2 months has been startling.

You need some physicality in this league. No point in playing 11 midgets who get eased off the ball by a gust of wind. It'll get you nowhere. 

Got us 4th last season, and 2nd  this season, up to a point.

Depends on your style of play, can't be punting long balls and the like.

4th is nowhere in this league. All it does is leave you heavily handicapped in the playoffs. 1st and 2nd or you're snookered imo.
