Anyone out there supporting either team?

Falkirk Bairn here, can't wait to go back up north! Amazing stuff on Facebook as well

I will be supporting ICT since you lads knocked Brechin out in an earlier round

My Dad stays in Falkirk these days, and I've been to the Falkirk Stadium a good number of times (hospitality twice, free Budvar, lovely). I'll be hoping Inverness win though, as the country's Europe coefficient is too important to entrust to a second division team. I think Tommy Wright would be much more successful in the Europa League.

Edit: (sorry for the hijack)

Incidentally, Derek W, did you get to see much of Craig Storie? Jamie Masson has been released, you think Brechin will offer him a contract?

Craig Storie came on as a sub a couple of times but didn't look to be up to much. When he was away on international duty he got injured i think and never appeared back with us. Not sure if Brechin would offer Masson a contract, looked too lazy in his second loan spell and was also too greedy at times when passing would have been the easier option. Scored a beaut of a free kick against Morton though. We're in a bit of pickle just now with Ray McKinnon signing for Raith so no manager and 4 of our key players have signed contracts with other clubs.

So far we've got 6 players signed up and CVs for the new manager stop next friday so hopefully have someone in place by the end of the second week in June.

Unlucky for Falkirk yesterday. Missed most of the game, but the spill by McDonald will have left him gutted nae doubt.

Derek W:

I'd heard that about Masson actually. When he came back after his first spell with you Sheerin said something along the lines of "..he's got plenty of talent, but that's not the issue with Jamie..", obviously hinting he's got motivational issues.

Storie's been given another year, I guess to prove himself. Think you may well see him back, I know McInnes rates him.
