DA-go Par Adonis Posted February 27 Report Share Posted February 27 (edited) We'll agree to differ. It was marginal but I thought they offered nothing going forward in the 2nd half whereas they showed glimpses of attacking threat in the 1st. And (to TAP) I've literally said that I wouldn't have changed the shape - and I would have kept Summers on (unless he was carrying an injury). I've also not disagreed that we were less of an attacking threat in the 2nd half. Edited February 27 by DA-go Par Adonis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secure Par Posted February 27 Report Share Posted February 27 Played for a draw tonight! Got it so onwards and upwards… a lot of teams have to go to play ICT and it’s a hell of a place to go!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raymie Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 Both teams lucky to get nil. I thought if we had gone for them second half, we would have won that. It was a very cautious approach. Probably scared to lose to a relegation rival and thought a point would be acceptable ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al k Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 Draw wouldn't have been so bad, but every team around have gained 2pt on us. Kane was a massive loss for us. Now another attacking option down. I hope to god the team that finished game aren't the starting 11 on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livipar2 Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 Hopefully we can get another striker in this week. News in Kane isn’t too bad or McCann for that matter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digs Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 Had all the other teams round about us not gotten their inexplicable results that they did, this would have been seen as a decent point, with the added bonus of a clean sheet. The game itself was eye-wateringly poor. Not because we were necessarily terrible, I think we stuck to a game plan of being solid, but both teams showed very little creativity which made it a terrible game to watch. Whomever scored first was going to win that game. Great save from Mehmet for the penalty but another hard luck story for Jakubiak who again did everything right until the finish. Other than that, I can't think of any chances. One thing I will say is that Inverness definitely played not to get beat. In the second half, we struggled to break them down as they had 8 men behind the ball at all times. I thought Chalmers made a difference in terms of getting balls into the box, and it also allowed Edwards to get forward more, but whilst people have been screaming for a back 4 for ages, I think it completely hamstrings Edwards and Welch Hayes, who I thought looked pretty decent. They were both forced into a lot of long balls though, and it was frustrating given there was only one out ball in Jakubiak. Young Holmes did a lot of running but barely kept the ball once. All in all, I'll take a point, but two huge games coming up against rivals who have both picked up huge results tonight. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Inverness side who haven't won at home since November, with a crippling injury list? It's not awful but I'd also stop quite a way short of calling it decent.

It's not awful but I'd also stop quite a way short of calling it decent. There were plenty of people saying before the game that they would have taken a point. I personally don't think it was a terrible result either though, particularly not a terrible result in isolation. However, we showed more than enough at Partick on Friday to suggest that was a winnable game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelty_par Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 Everything we done on Friday, we just didn’t do last night. It was back to the slow tippy tappy stuff and no real intent to get forward minus the Jakuibak miss. 2nd half we were set up for the draw and I thought Inverness were there for the taking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA-go Par Adonis Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 Partick are on a bad run but were still much better than us for the first 35 minutes. Our equaliser was out of nowhere - and thanks to them having a dodgy keeper. We picked up after that, but were under pressure again at the start of the 2nd half and got another goal completely out of the blue (great goal mind you). It was only really after their equaliser was ruled out and Benjamin scored where we began to look the better side. If Jakubiak had buried that chance at the end of the first half last night, we could well have seen a more confident 2nd half performance. In summary, goals seem quite important... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyboy Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 I reckon we'll know roughly after these next 2 home games, what our chances of survival will be. We need to be making chances to win at home. No point in setting up for a draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
