With today news regarding Alan Savage paying off all of or at least most of the debt a certain past CEO had got us into, I only think it's fair to post something along the lines of what the late and very popular poster/fan would post and that is that the future seems to be a lot brighter now than it was in a VERY LONG TIME 🔴🔵🔴🔵.

I've seen it mentioned on X that Alan Savage should never have to buy a pint in the City again or maybe that a statue of him needs put up outside the stadium for all the work he's done in ONLY A WEEK to basically save us from administration and another potential relegation due to a -10pt deduction. I also saw one person state that he should remain at the club in some capacity even when the new investment comes in, which looks likely to be Portugal owners of Monza 🔵🔴.

I've never been this positive in a long time and it's certainly thanks to this messiah so I'm now hoping he and Charlie Christie (with possible help from Sir Alex Ferguson) can work their magic on Duncan Ferguson so that we can at least get back up to the Championship and build from there!

As Mr IHE would say, HMS Sneck is back on calmer waters from the rocky sea that we were on not that long ago!

Just a future will do, bright or not. That's already more than I had expected a week ago.

Behind all AS’s comments is an endorsement of DF as manager. Clearly we will be married to Duncan for better or worse (at least for the short/medium term) and therefore we must get on with supporting the club, like it or lump it. There’s no doubt a lot of muddy water under the bridge with DF but lumping it now given all the good work AS has done only serves to undermine the first glints of good feeling at ICT for a long, long time. 
 

I’ll personally be patient and supportive during this renaissance and hopefully DF takes some guidance from Charlie and others, along with modest investment, to turn our fortunes and playing style around. 
 

I’m picturing a Scottish Cup run of old, as proper old school underdogs. The playoff route to the Championship would seal another epic chapter in our beloved club. 
 

To quote IHE…time to ‘believe’?? Aye.

I'd buy him a pint for sure, but I am holding off on the statue for now. 

It is refreshing to hear so much open-ness from the club, it is great that the staff can finally breathe again and do their jobs, and who knows, perhaps some of those 7000 emails will now get answered, but there is a long road to climb. He will no doubt have to make some decisions we don't like, but I get the feeling that he will explain why those decisions need to be taken, which makes things easier. He has already rallied round creditors, paid some of our outstanding bills, and pretty much started the process of rebuilding trust in the club, and, as you say, to have done all this in a week is quite remarkable.

If he can turn things around, get round the table with our existing major stakeholders, and also do actual due diligence on potential major or majority investors to make sure that their intentions and plans pass the sniff test, then it may be time to figure out who the best bronze worker in Inverness. It would have to be a group statue though as HMS Sneck has had many influential captains over the years... Jock McDonald steered at the start, Dougie McGilvray then set us on the road to the SPFL, David Sutherland kept us alive when we hit financial issues in 2000, and now AS is steering us through a dangerous and rocky coastline and deserves his place in that list. Plenty of others who also helped along the way in different and sometimes unsung ways.

Maybe we end up with too many individuals to pay credit to so perhaps its easier to just put stickers of certain individuals who didn't live up to the hype in the urinals? That would also appeal to IHE as we recall the red/black painted urinals at Telford St back in 1994 ....
