Building for next season.

Now that the season has finally been ended, we now await a result on league reconstruction. Other than our views on league reconstruction (which are in the relevant thread), we now have nothing to discuss so I thought I'd start a thread regarding building for next season. 

First things first, I'm worried that Hearts will come in for John Robertson, especially if Hearts the restruction vote and indeed get relegated to the Championship, which would then result in Daniel Stendel resigning. 

Hopefully the majority of our squad stay so that we can present a strong fight with Hearts and Dundee, in the push for ending as league winners. 

Imho, we need to sign quality rather than quantity and also utilise some of our promising youngsters in the first team squad. 

At the moment, we have signed Shane Sutherland and are losing Shaun Rooney to Saint Johnstone and possibly White to Motherwell (taken from Scott Burns Twitter account). 

My take on what we need in order to compete with Hearts and Dundee, which I'm happy for you to disagree with, add to or even debate 😛

Imho, our defence and a 20-25 goals a season striker would be what I'd be prioritising.  I do understand that we need money to get these, hence why I said that we need to utilise the youngsters into the first team.  Players like Cammy Mackay, Cameron Harper, Roddy Mcgregor and Daniel Mackay (there are probably more that I've forgotten to mention) are, in my opinion, capable of becoming first team regulars and making a difference :ictscarf:

If only we had a rich business man/woman that could back Robbo, like Utd (Ogren) and Dundee (Nelms) have 😟

    I'm not sure exactly what folk expect Robbo to accomplish. His first season back was a write-off because he inherited an absolute clusterf*** of a club and its remarkable that we came so close to a pl

    Ah come on, Robbo has won me over and basically because he gets the best out of what he has! To say he's a failure is pathetic, his first year he ended 5th, only a point behind the last play off place

    Perhaps, for once, I am looking at things from a "worried" perspective. As far as I am concerned I just want to attend a live game and watch ICT play again. This time is all about survival and I can s

This home kit is quite similar to the design we are having next season....  If I remember rightly, the colour scheme on the away kit here is what we will have next season too.

Like those kits. looking good. Puma looks best imho. 

 

Cant see it happening, but Adidas - who have a league wide shirt deal in MLS - also have a nice kit with FC Cincinatti. The red is actually orange on their kit but its not a leap to see it as red ....  

FC Cincinnati star Fanendo Adi cited for operating vehicle while ...

Thought that was Cowdenbeath for a minute 😂

I agree but Andrew might be one of the lucky ones just now he has a trade working full time and still playing part time football.

Andrew was always going to be a good part-time player. When he was released the club did him a favour. A good football wage and full-time work wage instead of crap wage and small chance of a regular start.

What worries me whatever league we are in will we have enough players left to put a team on the park?

I see that the final section of today's statement confirms the new Puma deal.  It doesn't make reference to them specifically but rather a new technical partner as well as related improved online offerings. 

I'm glad to see this happening as in the current climate with no revenue coming in we need to try and find revenue from somewhere.   A new shirt, more merchandise and some additional 25th anniversary goodies is one way to do this and encourage fans to spend some cash on the club if they can.

Long as we get a half decent squad on the park can play in bin liners for all I care I'm still cutting about in the top of the pele Patterson era anyway!

Would be very happy with either of these! (Slightly prefer Pumas home concept)

Jonny Hayes ooc at Celtic, am I stupid thinking we'd be able to get him back? 

Aye he'll never come back to us pal he'll have loads of interest still a top player forget that 1!

Rakish Bingham be a decent shout decent striker defo worth a punt wev been toothless upfront for years! 

Doubt many rumours will come to anything. Everyone is in the same position right now. Very unlikely we will sign anyone anytime soon. I think we are just going to have to wait a bit longer until we know what is happening with the league restarting, No one has a clue what is going on. Entertaining though to hear the players linked.

So, Danny Devine has been in the highlands for a week or so.

Was in aviemore not so long ago, and was seen out and about in Inverness today apparently.

Reckon he’s coming back? As much as I reckon it would be wiser fielding the Under 8s ahead of him

Yes, spotted in Starbucks in the last hour with Aaron Doran.  I wonder, does CaleyTennis know anything about this?
