Im sure we all have funny or quirky stories involving our players. Please nothing defamatory or libelous, just fun. So heres mine.

When i was studying for my degree, my first year was at Inverness College. I started seeing a young Richard Hastings hanging around with some of the pretty girls in my class. He was very young but a first team player at this time. He took a shine to one in particular ( no names) and even sat in on a couple of my classes, in particular a Marketing class. I think he lasted 15-20 minutes before the lecturer spotted him and asked him who he was. Young Richard tried to blab his way, but alas the lecturer was on the ball and asked him politely to leave.

I always liked RH, nice guy.

oh and i dont think he got the girl in the end,lol

1997 after we won div 3 Pele brought the team over to Lewis where I was lucky enough to be staying. After they beat the island select at Goathill, Charlie, Ross and Barry W had the brass neck to scrounge a lift off me 200 yards to their digs.

I said I was going to see the Saw Doctors that night at Back hall and Charlie said that would be great craic but they had a reception with the island lads to attend and anyway they had no tickets and Back was a long way to go just to not get in. I said the island lads would probably get them into the gig anyway.

Later on the whole squad turned up at the gig in this wee hall, mostly pished, Baz was shouting 'hey alright big man' at me while trying to hold up Wayne Addicoat.

Saw Russell Duncan in the early learning shop few months back

Met Tokley because he was going out with my mums friends daughter. Shame my mum told him is new girlfriend was the local bike.

haha can just imagine the look on his face

And Mantis never tires of telling that tale.

I've removed a couple of posts that were getting a bit too personal.

Is it true you're entering the Grand National next year

Sold Mike Teasdale a DVD of Celtic thrashing Rangers a few years back, when I did a Xmas stint in MVC in 1998. He was still in his tracktop and shorts from training.

Last week I was dropping off one of my daughter's friend who lives nextdoor to Mike, I turned round to my neighbours young daughter and pointed out Mike, saying "see that man, he played for Caley Thistle when they beat your dad's team the first time" and before I could continue, Mike says "they're my team as well". Time for a sharp exit

Pretty unusual for footballers to follow other teams when they're part of the set up.

Met Marion Pahars at football last w/e and he asked where I came from in Scotland, I said Inverness and he said , did there manager ever play for England !!!!

You can't be serious?

I remeber Colin Mitchell used to do jamiroquai dance moves on the podiums at Blue nightclub every week, the only male in the club who ever used them.

Cracking.

These two go back a few years and are both about Wayne Addicoat.

Alex Caldwell was giving Wayne a lift when Wayne said he neded cash. However he declined Alex's offer to stop at a bank.

"I've not got my card," says Wayne.

AC: "Have you left it at home?"

WA: "No, Ross Tokely keeps it for me."

AC: "Do you manage to remember your PIN number OK though, Wayne?"

WA: "Naw... Ross Tokely keeps that for me too."

And when some of the younger players used to live in a house on Ardconnel Street, they sent Wayne away down to McDonalds for some food one night. Wayne duly wrote down each player's order before heading out the door. A minute later, there's a ring at the door bell and here is Wayne.

"That was quick Wayne!"

"Naw... I've just forgotten to write down what I want for myself."

When I was younger I quit/Roy Keaned the school team because Chibber got picked ahead of me, it was a sore one.

Duncan Shearer volleyed the ball past me from 6 yards out and then shouted something about bravery and handling. He was on a grand a week, and I sold eggs on my street.

After the hall of fame dinner i landed up Giving Caff and a few other bods a lift down to town

even managed to get him to blag me entry to Bakoo

Dad " Drive Carefull son"

Good thread. I have Johny Hayes phone number, he was texting my cousin so she gave it to me. I would give him a few texts about signing his new contract and what not, and he often replied. I once left him a voicemail before the dundee game singing the johny hayes song, I saw johny after the game and told him that I had his number, then he laughed and said "is it you who left me that voicemail.

I did work experience with the community coaches at ICT, I had a training top on (number 17) and shorts and socks I was pumping up the under 19s, 17s, 15s footballs, when Eric Odhiambo came up to me and asked me,

"Are the papers in yet mate"

I replied, "eh not sure"

Later on the same day, I went to a primary with Ian Black and we were coaching the kids, I was talking to Ian about ICT and stuff like that.

When I was setting up the goals for the wee kids to play on the pitch at half time, and the ground keeper told me off, and started shouting at me for being on the pitch.
