Are you serious? What else is supposed to say? If he hadn't been saying those things he would be criticised by the celtic fans for not being keen enough. You also need to remember at that point he was no longer an ICT player but a player on loan from Celtic.

Pretty sure the Scottish window shuts tomorrow at midnight

I am moving closer and closer to agreeing with the opening post. I have never seen an Inverness team with so little fight than in recent weeks. We gained a reputation on being hard to beat now it seems far too easy for anyone to score against us. For me Butcher has ripped the heart out of the playing squad and has replaced it with young players only here for 6 months to a year. I am not saying we should have kept all the older players but what is wrong with keeping them in the squad to have an influence on the younger players and pass on that fighting spirit we once had. How many players in the current squad will definitely be here next year? Apart from Buthcher's Golden Boy, Foran, I really have no idea. A few years ago we could have named our squad for the following season now with the exception of one of two changes. I understand change is needed to progress but have we really progressed at all? Yes this team is capable of better football than many ICT teams of the past but how often have we seen it this season? Consistently poor performances with the team showing no fight or passion for the club cannot be just down to the players on the park.

A new striker just isn't going to happen. Butcher was saying before the match about how broke he was, referring to his budget. A proven striker scoring 20 or more a season costs a lot. We just have to be patient. It would be a lot worse if we were losing without creating any chances at all.

Great news! No idea about McKay but great to have Doran back.

Just watched the highlights. Absolutely disgraceful decision from the linesman & referee.

No game from me. I wish you were right but that is not what I saw. As far as I am concerned Munro definitely took a swing at him.

Guys you need to wake up a bit here. It was no tactic to get Munro sent off. As much as I hate Maguire, he didn't seem to do much wrong before Munro swung his left fist at his face. Yeah, Maguire made the most of it but it was a stonewall sending off. Grant Munro and no-body else cost us the game last night!

Sorry to say this but Grant Munro cost us the game last night. I saw the sending off and from what I saw I am pretty certain Munro punched Maguire in the face or at least tried to. At the time I thought he got away with it until I saw the linesman with his flag up. For me we were the better team before the sending off and still played some decent stuff in spells after it. I thought Rooney had his best game in a long time but just couldn't get a goal.

I can't find the source just now but I am certain that it is three outfield players under the age of 21 in the match-day squad.

I'm pretty sure keepers don't count for the under 21 rule so Tuffey would make the bench at least if Esson is first choice.

To me Max Johnson is the young lad learning his trade, he is only 19. I wouldn't imagine he is too surprised about this considering Butcher said he was wanting another keeper. It's a great signing even if he ends up 2nd choice. Having two good quality keepers to call upon can only be a good thing.

So the title was won despite him and the board? Don't be so stupid! Are you telling me Bennet and the Board had nothing to do with appointing Butcher then offering him and Mo and contract extension? Or that they had nothing to do with the extensive changes made over the summer? Deciding to go for promotion straight away rather than consolidating for a year or two? I am not particularly a fan of Bennet and he has deservedly had plenty criticism in the past but to say the title was won despite his efforts is a complete joke. He and the Board deserve credit for enabling such a quick turnaround this season.

No it isn't necessary but is anything? It doesn't mean there is anything wrong with it! Some people really need to lighten up a bit. Today was a great day for all there why try and make a problem out of nothing?
