Well for almost 30 years we managed? We even won a Scottish Cup with them

I'm guessing that our losses are pretty colossal by now, and like any gambler who maybe should've walked away from the table at 10pm slightly down , Morrison has been handing over his car keys and his house keys, pension fund, his in-laws house keys etc. Its 3am and still his mate Scot is willing him on from the back of the room even though he's not got a dime on the table. Just one more spin, your luck is about to turn, come on , stay in the game! He needs to get up and walk now. Then Gardiner will be on his own, and he will follow.

'Great' Willie Rennie?

Apologies but I have come down with a nasty bug since Friday and won't be able to attend in person. Unfortunately I cant attribute that to the CEO or Chairman, but if they were both to leave I'm sure I would feel much better. Register my disgust at how they are treating loyal fans, local businesses, sponsors, youth players, the City of Inverness and the Highlands. We are now a complete and utter laughing stock.

Taking a side step so to speak the Great Willie Rennie is from Kelty. Is it worth targeting him with our concerns especially when he is busy canvassing as he’s desperate for votes. Inverness Kelty Thistle sounds so wrong on so many levels. Willie get Gardiner and Morrison telt ya Ken eh!!! Dougal

Would Morrison tolerate such ineptitude in his other businesses? if not, why is he letting it destroy this business!

I would do anything for my club, but I won't do that. Smarmy git was on STV news tonight.

Looks like Reporting Scotland has a piece on the meeting. Wonder if they'll have a shot of the banner on the stadium door this morning?

No. If we go bust it's our fault, or apparently the fault of the Supporters Trust if they encourage it. But certainly not his or Gardiner's for their epic trail of failures, or Ferguson's for his inability to learn from mistakes. It absolutely blows my mind that somehow Morrison sees Gardiner as indispensable because it's all hands on deck. Instead we move the day-to-day day down to Kelty which suits our Manager to the ground.

Unbelievable honestly!!!

My bumpkin cousins across the Bridge say that Uncle Roy has proposed an option?

and-down-t-351844/ So Morrison thinks Gardiner has been loyal. What about fans who have been loyal since the club was formed? Fans who have bought season tickets year in, year out are now saying they will not buy one this year due to this absurd decision. Does the loyalty of these people not matter?

Anyone got Kenny Cameron's phone number?

The article just highlights the delusion of those involved. My love of ICTFC comes from when I stayed in Balloch in the 1970s as a child until I was 8 years old. At that point we could only dream of our local team being in the Scottish League, never mind winning the Scottish Cup, and playing in Europe. Couldn’t believe I have seen an Inverness team achieve that in my lifetime. Fast forward now, and the decision to leave our home (whether it’s ‘just’ training or not)erode the reason I kept supporting MY Inverness team, and no reason remains. All affinity ripped and the link to my happy childhood in Balloch gone. I do feel betrayed. Thank you Mr Morrison and Mr Gardiner.

I'm cross posting with P&B at this point, apologies if this doesn't make sense. I think administration is where this is going to be honest. What has been hinted at is that quite a few of the other major shareholders (Dougie MacGilvary and family and Alan Savage) want to take over but don't want to have to pay off the money that Morrison and others have put in and are owed. So if the club went into administration the money owed to him and others could be CVA'd down to a lower ammount. That's very dangerous of course and would definitely put the club's future at risk. But I can't really see any other outcome if the current incumbents don't walk away. Another point about it is that I don't think Morrison, who is a wealthy man by all accounts but not so wealthy that he can cross out £1m a season, can afford to walk away and the only way he'll get his money back is for us to get back into top flight. Hence we've got the Operation Moonshot sensibility - stage concerts to make loads of money! Get involved in a strange battery farm property deal to make £3m! Appoint coach from English Premiership on a huge wage and move traiing to accomodate him! It's moonshot after moonshot and none of them have worked. The only way we can go is to build the club up again, the way it was done before, and that isn't going to be a quick and easy job. It's certainly not a job for Ross Morrison and Scott Gardiner, or any of the current board.

So how have performers in the Highlands in other sports, who are operating at levels considerably higher than third tier domestic football, have managed for a very long time?

Great podcast guys. Well done! The club board would do well to listen to this. They might then understand that a football club is nothing unless it is embedded into the community.

Yes there is one I know local and employed by the club at present

Some players have been 'housed' in hotels. Austin Samuels has been living in the new AC Marriot.

Indeed. I know of previous club physios who have been local and who were employed by the club - while they were in the top flight - without having previously worked with a full-time sports club at any point.

I think Morrison can't see the wood for the trees. He says if the fans don't buy season tickets the club goes bust but then he does things that pretty much every single season ticket holder opposes. It's the way that the current board have treated fans for years - we don't give a f**k about anything you say, think or want, just cough up money again. Eventually that road runs out. He even seems to criticse the fans by effectively saying "oh well no-one cared when we announced we'd shut down the youth academy!". I think I'm right in saying that was never announced, they said "oh we might have to shut down the youth academy depending on what happens". The idea of all these unnamed people in football phoning him up and telilng him what a great idea this is is a complete fantasy as well. The whole tone of the discussion and interview is the usual for Morrison - "we have to do this, we have to, there's no alternative". You get the feeling that in just about every case with the board they decide something and then just cover their ears and fail to look at the problem in a different way.

A quick google search shows up a lot of possibilities locally, if we were, for example, a community club and not pissing off the community at every turn. This example seemed pretty decent... https://www.highlifehighland.com/blog/new-physio-clinic-opens-at-inverness-leisure/ "“We have a team of highly skilled practitioners with experience working within many sports from professional football for Inverness Caley Thistle Football Club and Celtic Football Club to Olympic skiers in the Austrian Alps. Our sports massage therapist, Josh Meekings is a former professional footballer and therefore knows the demands of sports people."

With experience of working on a squad of full time professional sportsmen? I would imagine a pro football club would ideally want someone who has done that before, but maybe I’m completely wrong.

Tranmere join the race for Cammy Harper Turns out Killie are favourites. Cannae blame him for jumping the sinking ship.

Of course there are sports physios up here
