Thinks our support is embarrassing. Thoughts? Maybe a wee loan spell at Brora will make him appreciate Inverness more.

 

 

I'm sure club-captain and fellow-countyman, Richie Foran will have a quiet word in his ear! Players are warned to be careful what they put on 'social media' but you'd think, by now, that people would know not to write anything derogatory about their employer on Facebook or Twitter!

I'd put it down to naivety and move on...

A bit misleading. How do you know he thinks that? He retweeted the guy, but so did I. Retweets don‘t mean endorsements. The number is way off the mark though. Lets not start a witch hunt against an ICT player right before a Semi Final. People get far too upset about tweets and posts on football forums.

He does have a valid point though.

I know retweets don't necessarily mean endorsements but I don't see why he should retweet it either way. It's just a bit of naivete, really; if it was a more senior player it could potentially have led to some negative publicity for the club.

Agree with the above: first, an inaccurate initial tweet and we don't know the motive for retweeting. A gentle word in the ear would suffice...

We're all thinking it to be fair. I remember when Bobby Mann slagged off the home fans after we beat Celtic for the second time. 

Schoolboy error from our Joe. No need to hit the panic button about our crowd on Sunday, we will be heard no matter how many are there!

Naive  but he's young. No great harm done and no doubt he's learned a lesson.

He's a long way to go to beat Paul Slane in Twitter faux-pas'.

More to the point who the f*ck is Benjy Palmer anyway

A home tie for hearts basically on a Sunday with no unsubscribed transport what did anyone expect.

This semifinal is a joke already I just hope we come through it and get to the final at the piggery and then see how many attend.

We are ictfc and fuk everyone else

Every ICT fan who makes it down deserves a pat on the back.

You don't know when you will next get the chance to see the mighty ICT in a national semi. I am sure we will make the most of it and have a blast.

Can't wait, bring it on!

He is probably quoting BBC Radio Scotland who claimed we had just 600 supporters going. In some ways it made the point to those who arranged the fixtures that they had got it terribly wrong. We could have played on the Saturday and Aberdeen played ST Johnston on the Sunday at 12.15 to secure TV revenue to be split four ways. However, that was too logical and the conspiracy theorists amongst us will believe the SFA wanted to make sure Hearts survived financially by being given a major boost by playing the Semi in their own backyard.

 

That said, the suggestion seems to be that we may end up with nearer 2,000 present.

I binned him from my twitter after a pretty racist tweet he made. Seems to be a silly wee laddie that needs to be reminded of how to conduct himself online by the club

Seems to spend most of his time on Twitter purving on lassies.

Assume radio Scotland picked up the number travelling on the buses and added 2 plus 2 but made 6?

We were warned about the dangers of social media early on in uni. I think any trainee of the club should have the same. Especially seeing as the role they have is so public.

If true, that is much more concerning.

Had a look at his Twitter there.  While he might be on the wind-up with his latest 'Scottish people watching Braveheart' tweet, it doesn't come across well and seems a bit of a weirdo.  His open love for Celtic is also unwise.  Doesn't strike me as the sharpest tool in the toolshed to be honest.

The club do give them social media advice. He's obviously not heeding it tho unfortunately!

There are some real feckin eejits posting rubbish these days.

600 fans? I read somewhere we were pushing 1900 tickets sold. Whats the deal?

I've just had a look at his Twitter as well! I think he would be advised to remove the picture that clearly reveals a certain player's home address. Moron.

 Apparently 1300 have bought tickets but aren't going to the match

They are watching it in the Iona.
