McPake doon the road, Dodds next?

If we lose this weekend then this is likely, Tbh he is lucky he's still in the job after Broadfoot bailed him out by scoring a last minute equaliser last Wednesday. 

 

I truly expect a reaction from the team and tbh overconfidence could be an issue for Ayr too. 

 

BTW, I'm surprised both Stephen Glass and James McPake have been sacked, especially JM as Dundee were very loyal to him last season even when they were struggling in this league, which led to calls for his sacking. 

 

Funnily enough, this season we are in the same boat though not as many of our fans are calling for Billy's head.

The consistency at the start of the season has kept Inverness in the play-off spots, Ayr did the same under McCall, got off to a flier and clung on a bit towards the end. 

The gap between 5th and 6th was so big that it probably kept a couple of teams from investing or freshening up in January thinking that the play-offs were safe at least. Based on last years performance and signings in the summer, I'd say Dodds has almost overachieved so far this season on the face of it. 

That being said, I don't watch them every week to see if they have been rotten but lucky.

As a thoughtful birthday gift, my missus booked us into a hotel in Inverness this Saturday so I'll be pretty fucking annoyed if it's off.

Last time we did this was the playoffs. Can't remember the score that day but we took a good crowd and put up a fair fight before bowing out gracefully.

Ten pin bowling was the evening entertainment which we're hoping to repeat. For some unknown reason, Dundee doesn't have a bowling alley. It might be scotland's coolest city but that's tinpot as f**k.

There certainly will be ten ball-fearing white objects falling around shambolically in Inverness on Saturday, but you won't find them at Rollerbowl

We'll need to bring our away kits in that case!

It definitely used to have one. I got my record score of 177 there about 20 year go when I was 16. Used to be next to a casino. Think it was off Harefield Road. Some kind of retail park.

Nor a manager.

What's the Highland lads thoughts on the game being on ?

It's meant to be a blizzard here tomorrow and Saturday so I expect the snow gates on the A9 could be shut at some point.

The pitch has had a fair bit of work done to it over the last season or two so it should be better prepared than previous years to handle any large amounts of rain / snow that may fall on it. Hopefully the club have put covers down as well which, I guess, will give some kind of shielding against the elements.

I think that was gone by the time I moved here, 15 years ago, or not long after.


Do the games get called off for a frozen pitch much up there?

We've got a 24 hour cancellation on our hotel but I guess it's more about the roads than the game.

Heard it was waterlogged this morning , will it drain and hold up to tomorrow’s forecast ?

Not usually its usually the police that call it off due to safety around the ground itself.  Currently golf ball size flakes coming down just now but I am slightly higher up than the town itself.

I hope they give some indication if it is going to be on. Even if it isn't officially off, if the club (Inverness) could give their unofficial view it would be very helpful. I'm planning on going and I've got a hotel booked that I can cancel up until 6pm on Friday - after that I lose the money and it wasn't cheap.
