  1. Today
  2. Kells being very cautious about any new signing. He is probably still hoping Aberdeen sign a few more experienced players thus freeing up Bavidge. Who knows but it is re-assuring that there is no panic to get the right signing, if possible. Maybe Jordan White on loan!!
  3. County were in the top tier last season and other than the 2 goals there wasn't that much in it. We're missing a reliable confident striker and that was the difference. Maybe Oho will slot in if he's done enough to impress Kel but watching at Nairn and yesterday I can't say he impressed me.
  4. Just a word of praise to those that undertook some ground general tidying-up. I noticed that the place looked a lot smarter with simple but clear improvements at the small detail. The perimeter of the pitch and ‘path’ had been cleared of weeds and growth for the first time in I-don’t-know how many years. I’m past such activities, but for me it is evidence of a club trying to get back some pride in its self and for the fans attending. Well done. Achieved its goal for me! bc
  5. I get where CaleyCiuin is coming from and just because prices are comparable or even cheaper than elsewhere does not mean they are not overpriced. I personally think £5 for a pint is overpriced especially when I can get 15 cans of Tennents for £10 from the Supermarket. That's not a criticism of Bar94 or pubs who charge more. There's lots of overheads, better quality offerings and a need to make money. For me a pint in a pub is a luxury and I don't feel entitled to a cheap price. If I want that I'll get cheaper drink from a cheaper source like the supermarket. I'll still buy a pint in Bar94 when I can and it's as much in support of the club as it is a refreshment. It's not grudged and those who volunteer their time to help ensure maximum return are appreciated.
  6. That is a shame you have come away from Bar94 with the opinion that it's overpriced. As Robert said, like for like, it's substantially cheaper than bars in the town. Not just the beer. This has been achieved by it being run exclusively by volunteers. But that's just life, you can't please everybody.
  7. As I posted, it’s overpriced. I had my two kids with me. It’s not just the beer, it’s all products. My opinion, my comment.
  8. Yesterday
  9. What’s your issue with the bar? Prices have been frozen at last season’s prices with a pint £5 which is a lot less than you will pay for the same beer elsewhere in the area.
  10. Great that Aaron got the send off he deserved. A decent crowd and a couple of good goals from County, especially the second. They didn’t look that good ( other than Hale), but we were not at it at all. I know it’s still pre season, but that was not a team that looked anywhere near good enough to be competitive at the top of league 1. The weather was good and overall I enjoyed the game, but same old poor matchday experience, long queues at the kiosks, over priced bar 94 and poor stewarding!!!! Some things will never change.
  11. An enjoyable occasion, and if someone had been able to capitalise on the two great scoring opportunities in the first 5 minutes, the score would have been more to my liking. Suicidal passing in front of our goal presented County with their two goals, there are times when you need to just blooter the ball up the park rather than smarta**e tippy-tappy. Just a bit too casual sometimes. However, it was all about Aaron Doran and today's attendance was better than many of the league games last season - a mark of the esteem in which the man is held. An afternoon well spent!
  12. Someone in the bar after the game said that Ross County only agreed to the game on the basis it was played as a competitive friendly so I think they played it very differently than we did. I agree with Robert's assessment and as painful as it is I try to keep in mind that we're currently a league 1 club that's rebuilding on and iff the park. As others have said the online ticketing system is painful to use and I also resorted to phone. A stark contrast to the simplicity of buying tickets for Clach and others during pre season. All in all it was still an enjoyable few hours in honour of a great player who still looks like he'd be worth having on the books.
  13. They were throwing stones at some of our fans before kick off too and quite a number of Police Officers were in attendance at full time to ensure there was no further trouble and they ushered the young idiots away from the Stadium. Credit to our younger fans for not responding in kind, although it could have turned a bit nasty had the Police not been there. Totally unnecessary and it could easily have marred Aaron’s day but fortunately it didn’t.
  14. I thought it was a pretty even match but in Hale County had a match winner. Sadly both goals started through poor play by us: losing possession cheaply for the first then giving away an unnecessary free kick in a dangerous area for the second. Wotherspoon brought out a tremendous save by the County goalkeeper when we were only one down but otherwise we didn’t carry much threat up front, although we looked a lot better after Longstaff and Mckay came on. I don’t recall County bringing our goalkeepers into action, other than picking the ball out of the net, until substitute Logan made a good block to stop a third. We need to find potency in the final third and avoid silly errors, but other than that I thought we matched them. It was great to see Aaron on the pitch again, and he got the send off he deserved from a decent crowd and afterwards in Bar 94 which was again busy today.
  15. Great write up Don! Aaron has given us so much over the years, Also Some nice words by Ryan Esson and George in Bar94 after the match. The game was not much to shout about from our perspective, Lots of tippy tappy stuff, with county being a lot more direct and the score shows it. The striker up front Ojo? did not do much to impress, Strachan at LB was guilty of a few poor passes but seemed to sort himslf out in the second half, However at times it was like watching Duncball as we seemed to have a nosebleed when we got near their box. County keeper had an easy day for sure as i think our striker issue has not been resolved. However as Don says it was all about a legend that is Aaron Doran!
  16. Aaron Doran was a substitute for the Caley Jags in his testimonial game against local rivals Ross County, who aired their new strip for season 25/26 Both sides fielded strong line-ups with the hosts benching Doran and fielding two trialists on from the start. Doran was in good company with Billy Mckay, Luis Longstaff and new signing Jordan Alonge on the bench beside him. A bright and breezy afternoon for this 2:00pm kick off with County getting the game underway, kicking towards the North Stand. Ronan Hale bagged the opener in the seventh minute with a great finish, Cornelius with the assist. Ross Laidlaw in the County goal saved from Wotherspoon ten minutes before the break, but right on the interval Hale scored from a thumping free kick to double the visitors advantage. HALF TIME: 0-2 Changes were made at the interval by County with Inverness waiting until the hour before McKay, Longstaff, Robbie Thompson and new signing Jordan Alonge were introduced. Billy Mckay brought Laidlaw into action with twenty minutes remaining. The main man came on to an appreciative round of applause from a decent support, replacing Wotherspoon on 70 minutes to say his farewells. More subs followed by both as everyone got involved in the play. Sub keeper Logan Ross denied Eamonn Brophy near the end. FULL TIME: 0-2 Decent workout for both sides. Ronan Hale showing his class with two great strikes, but today was not about the result, it was to show our gratitude for a great servant to the club. Thank you Aaron Doran
  17. Get this from time to time on TicketBa***** for any tickets I try to buy for events over here. Seems to be a back-end security thing. My problem is opposite, works on personal device but not on work computer. Seems to think something strange with our network arrangement / firewall / IP range or something. Exact same message ""Your Browsing Activity Has Been Paused. We've detected unusual behaviour on either your network or your browser"
  18. You could have donated direct via the bank details given above and avoided Ticketmaster taking their cut!
  19. 1 0 to the scum thought the keeper should have done better
  20. County fans fighting before they leave Dingwall apparently
  21. This was posted on the Official ICTFC facebook page: Tickets available from the club shop until 1pm and then they’ll be available from the front of the ground. We recommend supporters getting tickets in advance too.
  22. They are normally available at the ticketing windows along from the shop entrance.
  23. Are they? We are just planning to turn up and buy ours this afternoon.
  24. Hi Mantis, Understand the root cause issue you’ve identified, however it is a problem for ICT if people give up buying a ticket. Gone it seems are the days when you just turned up and paid cash for entry. You now need to provide your name, address and other personal details (credit/debit card) to simply apply for a match ticket. Introduce the potential glitches where any part of the above or platform provider (ie ticketing.co.uk) kick-in, then it becomes a chore. I don’t know how many times now where I have just shut down a purchase (eg paint) due to coming up against such grind. The club should make it as easy as possible for match access/ tickets to be purchased. If cash turnstiles cannot be reintroduced then a clear notice on the club ticket site that tickets are available for purchase at the ground right up to kick off IMO. tuppence worth. bc
