Season 2006 - 2007

"... Inverness deserved to win..."

St Mirren 0-1 ICT FC 19th May 2007

The last game of the season for Caley Jags, a trip to the city of Paisley, an early 12:30 kick off, the chance to grab an eight place finish ahead of Dundee United, the opportunity to field some of the younger squad members, the last game in the Caley Jags strip for team captain Darren Dods, the 300th game for the club by Richard Hastings. As for the Buddies, the chance to end the season on a high with a win against the team they beat in the first game of the season, the possibility of a tenth place finish ahead of Motherwell, a farewell to Kirk Broadfoot, and the opportunity to award the Key of the City to Ross Tokely in a mass show of forgiveness... NOT!!

The game itself ended in a win for Caley Jags. A single goal decided the outcome and it was scored on the 74th minute when Stuart McCaffrey headed home. As for Darren Dods, he did not play today, however Richard Hastings was fielded and was on form as usual, Ross Tokely received his now traditional welcome and to keep the Buddies support happy he fell over one of the advertising boards. Young Caley Jags players Zander Sutherland and Rory McAllister's performance pleased manager Charlie Christie and provides him with further options for next season.

Charlie Christie was pleases that the team finished the season with a win, their first away win in the league since 21-Oct-06: "It's always good to finish the season with a win... we thoroughly deserved it, we dictated the game from the first minute to the last, barring a wee charge from St Mirren after we had scored... it just took us so long to score, but it was a good way to finish the season."

Gus MacPherson said: "It was poor and no doubt Inverness deserved to win the game, we can't have any complaints... you try to remind players about standards but because of events last week it was flat."

"... we bossed the game ...  "

ICT FC 2-1 St Mirren 1st January 2007

Caley Jags strikers Graham Bayne and Denis Wyness both scored from open play ensuring a win in their first match of 2007. The Saints pulled one back towards the end of the match. They then started to cause problems for their hosts, but did not add further to the score. The match started well for Caley Jags with Bayne's goal coming on 5 minutes when he headed in a Roy McBain cross. Then, 16 minutes later Wyness chested down a Richard Hastings cross which he blasted past keeper Bullock. The Saints battled back and eventually replied on 77 minutes when Kirk Broadfoot headed in past Mark Brown from a Richard Brittain corner. A number of excellent saves by Brown during the course of the game ensured all three points went to Caley Jags.

After the match Charlie Christie commented, "I thought that for 65 minutes we bossed the game, scored two excellent goals and then had three great opportunities to get a third goal, but we never got it. It has been a decent four games of late and barring 15 minutes of madness at Falkirk we have played really well and seven points out of 12 for us is good going." St Mirren manager Gus MacPherson said, "You can't give anyone in football a two-goal start and expect to come back... The last 20 minutes was one-way traffic, but we just couldn't get the second goal."

"... Inverness are, outside of Celtic, the form side...  "

St Mirren 1-1 ICT FC 28th October 2006

Caley Jags took the lead on 34 mins when Craig Dargo scored following a Barry Wilson cross. John Sutton headed in the equaliser for St Mirren on 65 mins when he got on the end of a Simon Lappin corner.

Caley Jags manager Charlie Christie said: "It was a very good away result but not the best of performances in the second half in fact I was very disappointed with our second half showing.  We had given ourselves a platform with the goal and also had created three or four excellent chances in the first half so to come out in the second half and only have one effort on goal is not like us and was disappointing "Andy Millen, the St Mirren player-assistant manager : "... You have to remember we are still new to the SPL. Inverness are, outside of Celtic, the form side... Credit to our players in the second half, and we merited what we got."

ICT FC 1-2 St Mirren 29th July 2006

This was St Mirren's first game in their return to the SPL. They got off to a fine start. Caley Jags however started the season with a continuation of their below par home form. However, striker Craig Dargo made an excellent start to his season by scoring the first Caley Jags goal of 2006-2007. Manager, Charlie Christie was far from impressed with the team's defensive efforts. "We lost a really poor first goal, but then the second goal made the first one look like a wonder goal because it was an embarrassment," he said.
