Big Boots To Be Filled

Richie Foran will be missing on Monday so who will take his place?

Terry Butcher has challenged his Inverness players to fill the gap created by the absence of his captain Richie Foran who is banned from the SPL fixture due to the number of yellow cards he has picked up this season. Butcher said: "Richie Foran will be a big miss on Monday, but we'll have to re-jig it again. He's been fantastic. He will be sorely missed, but somebody else gets a chance. We'll have a look and see who can fill his shoes." Foran has dropped back from his usual forward role into midfield and performed well in the 1-1 draw at Hibs on Wednesday. Butcher expressed doubt over whether Andrew Shinnie (calf) will be fit to play St Johnstone on Monday, but is confident of filling Foran's place, with Greg Tansey among those in contention. Butcher went on: "We've got good options. Greg Tansey could come into midfield now. He's been champing at the bit to get back into the action."
