  1. Only in Scottish Football could three clubs not be able to tick either yes or no on a form and return it by a deadline. How do these people tie their shoe laces in the morning.
  2. I am flabbergasted ! Who is the current Scotland's football writers young player of the year and also nominated for PFA young player of the year ? Just proves again that the SFA are not fit to run our national game. It is not a numbers game, it about producing the right talent through the youth system to benefit ICT and the Scottish game.
  3. As the OP I should point out that I don't understand twitter and today was the first day in 2015 I have looked at my Facebook page. All I was suggesting was a couple of post a day on Facebook even if they are not directly football related. While I love football I have no interest in footballers, their beards or their knees. However there are thousand of people who are. Big brother etc. If we can get people interest in ICT who aren't football people maybe they will come to the games. Win win. My motivation in this post was in a week were everything in the papers and on this forum was negative. It is all about who is leaving etc. Who is **** off at the club. I think at times the club needs to get in front of stories. Tomorrow we are in the last sixteen of the greatest cup competition in the world, in the tie off the round, the two jags go head to head. Why is that not what everyone is talking about. Why not even a story about a 1million impression a month. Do I have the answers, no. Do I think I know the answers, hell no. I believe the marketing the club needs to be controlled by the club. There needs to be strick boundaries to protect not just the club but all the staff at the club. Any marketing should not get in the way on the main business wining football games, merely a sideline. PS I have enjoyed all the post, we have had nice artwork slacking me off, music suggestions and a YouTube video which I can't get out off my head. A warning would have been nice! Yogi interviews will never be the same again!
  4. This subject has been mention in a number post on different threads therefore I thought it possible needs its own thread. Personally I think the club is trying to improve its image but it is nowhere near the level it needs or should be. The Facebook pages, twitter feed etc go days without any updates. We live in 24/7 society that demands interaction and stories with a “personal touch” numerous times a day, every day. Simple stuff like, what do the players think of beards in the dressing room? Any Fun stuff, pictures of training, Yogi cycling to work in the snow. The only reason I know he has a bike, is a friend on Facebook put up a photo of her kids at the stadium with Yogi and his matching helmet. What’s the Inverness Caledonian Thistle Community Development’s boys up to today? Even who’s turn is it to make the tea. Any rubbish is better than no post. The club needs to reach out with positive comments and actions to non-football supporters and Facebook etc can do that. I am not saying for a moment that Yogi and the boys need to stop training and start tweeting. However the club needs to allocate a lot more resources to this. Forget all this highland rubbish about “staying under the radar” and complaining about the poor levels of the crowd. These are negative and boring. Let’s puff out our chests and scream on every media simple "We are ICT and we are coming".
  5. Is he not dead? Might this not be a small hindrance in scoring goals. Just a thought.
  6. Personally I think Hughes should not be allowed to speak to the press. Nothing he says encourages me to go to the games and I have been a season ticket holder for 20 years. Nothing about the most exciting league in years. Nothing about the fact there is very little between the teams. Nothing about ICT are up for this season battle. Bring it on, ICT are ready! Where is the aspiration, Where is the inspiration, Where is the motivation.
  7. I am not sure that Richie would not be keen on the strip being two sizes too small, the tiara and the lipstick to match the top. However I am sure the rest of his team mate's smiles would match the photo.
  8. John "Yogi" Hughes has to go. He has not won enough games, pure and simple. I pay my money to watch by beloved ICT win games. From the Board in terms of finances, the Manager in terms of prestige, the Players in terms of wages and the Fans in terms of glory, all that matters is wining. The stats don't lie, his track record as ICT’s manager is 7 wins out of 27 games that’s a win ratio of 25.93%. If he had been in charge since the start of the season we would be fighting for survival will all the other bottom 6 no-hopers who can only win 1 in 4 games. A top six club aspires to win every second game. I am not saying ICT should win every second game but wining every third game has been a bench mark which other managers seemed to have been judged. Butcher in 2011/12 when he only won 11 games all season was under real pressure. The fact he was rebuilding the team and the board probably knew this in advance meant he did survive. The only other manager to fall below a 30% win ratio was Brewster in 08/09 and we know what happen to him. Please Yogi do the right thing and walk. Rant over!
  9. Our players are ill disciplined? Can I draw your attention to Robinson's lunge on Mckay in the first half and Hamill's professional foul on Watkins. The referee is there to produce a level playing field for both teams and I don't think anyone believes that happened on Sunday. Players make rash decisions and should rightly be punished, likewise I'd say the referee certainly made a rash call for the red card.
  10. With that attitude the board might as well just put up a "For Sale" sign at the stadium. Every league in world is normally dominated by a couple of teams. Today was about getting the right structure to manage Scottish football going forward. Maybe the proposal are flawed but what harm is trying it?

    smoke bomb

    It would be okay if who ever had the smoke bomb was big enough to walk down the front and let it off. But they don't. They push into apart of the ground far away from were their ticket is thus trying to casting suspicion on someone else. Remember that could be you! It was more that obvious yesterday that "some people" were not sitting in their own seats. They simple headed to the back of the lower teir. I personally had to tell two idiots to move at half time when I came back from the toilet. They simple push their way down a couple of rows and forced a elderly couple out of their seats. These people are cowards and bullies. If this is the new type of supporters we want at games to boost numbers I would rather stay at home.
  12. It nice to see our soft southern supporters concerned about a sprinkling of snow. Be brave "The Highland Juggernaut" is coming. Snow, Hearts, brick walls, nothing will stop us.
  13. First there need to be a cull of the smaller professional teams in Scottish football. Scotland cannot support 4 leagues containing 42 clubs. This proposal start this process with 24 clubs in the new look Premier and Championship. Personally don’t like the ideas of the split but let’s give it a go if it get us there. The teams under that will hopefully split into 3 semi-pro regional leagues. A Highland, East and West leagues. These leagues will probably have 18 to 20 teams in them made up of the current Highland league, Junior football and 18 left over from the current structure. Interestingly this could include a certain team from the west side of Glasgow. Therefore we have a setup controlled by 24 teams which only needs 18 ambitious teams to agree any meaningful future proposal.
  14. If they are throwing names about from the lower leagues surely Alistair McCoist would be near the top of the list, is he not looking to be at the second best club in Scotland!
  15. Looking forward to an "away day" at the begin of every year for the Scottish Cup. The bus driver asking for directions to Stenhousemuir. The best of these being the only two away supporters in an empty 60,000 seater stadium when the game was called off due to a piece of guttering flapping about in the wind. It was okay though because the nice boys from east end of Glasgow let us win the re-schedule match!
