allyo Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Reckon we should be looking for a win here. It won't be easy but it looks like an opportunity. Already two nil for Morherwell tonight. Would a hammering suit us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinKelvin Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 No, it's better we win than get a hammering. Oh, I see what you mean..... ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cup Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 The same ICT team that started against Aberdeen is playing tonight. Let's hope they start again on Saturday and they are all knackered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p12tfc Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Before the hibs game I said us have Benny's delighted with 7+ points from our games before the split . With that in mind I'd be happy with a point here. Would love 3 though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keiththejag Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Of the two teams its the real Thistle who are the fresher and in form side. Its a great opportunity but wont be easy. ICT are in their league position for a reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Peebles Tackle Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 A win on Saturday would be massive. Other fixtures: Aberdeen v Kilmarnock Celtic v St Mirren Motherwell v Ross Co St Johnstone v Hibs Don't really see Killie, St M or Ross C getting anything & Hibs will be lucky to get a draw. I'll say again... 3 points would be MASSIVE (and we're more than capable of getting them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Willjag Posted March 20, 2014 Members Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Once again we cant afford to go into this game overconfident. ICT are a good side and they will get back on track. Just hope it's not this weekend. If Hughes stops trying to get them to play football and resorts to their aerial strengths, we could struggle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stillresigned Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 So long as we don't get too overconfident I think we'll get something out of this game, maybe even win it. That would be the perfect scenario going into the game against Celtic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 The run in game to the split that I'd worry about the most is the Hearts game. That's not the 3pt banker that many will predict. They're most likely to have been relegated by then and we've seen it time and time again teams are hard to beat when the pressure finally is off.

Saturday is mine. Given the other fixtures on Saturday, it's a great chance for us to put a bit of distance between us and one or two of the others. Inverness CT and St. Johnstone are massive. Anything from Celtic's a bonus and I personally think the Hearts game will be a 3pt banker. Obviously providing we turn up. Make no mistake - Hearts are shite.

stillresigned Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) This Saturday will be a good test of whether we are going to kick on as most of us hope and believe we can or we're to be stuck in a dod eat dog scrap at the bottom of the table. Its really up to the management and players to show that they deserve the marvelous backing they've had (mostly) home and away. We;ve got to strike that balance between confidence and treating our opponents with respect. I've said before and I'll say it again of all the teams likely to be in the bottom six I think we are far and away the better football team, its only when we have been dragged into humphing the ball up the park that we struggle. Personally, I;d start with the same team we played agaist Hibernian, with the exception of Brannigan coming in for Buaben.

peagreenboy Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Who's Brannigan? Kenny Brannigan, obviously. Anyway, there's a dangerous amount of optimism pervading this thread, which makes me extremely nervous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, there's a dangerous amount of optimism pervading this thread, which makes me extremely nervous. Don't worry - a mention of Kenny Brannigan is a sure fire way to instantly quash any optimism whatever the situation. I can honestly see Hearts catching us now, and Archie must go.

Agree that we need three specialist midfielders away from home. However Kris scored twice at Inverness in October but it would hard on Taylor to bench him. Tough choice for the manager. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottymagoo Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 ICT have won once at home since John Hughes took over at the beginning of December, 2-0 against Stranraer in the cup. Still a very capable team though and I'd be very happy with a point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanieD Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 A point would be good - anything more a bonus, anything less? well perhaps they are due a win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
