Thanks for the memories, the goals, the perfomances, the promotion and the greatest run of Away days ever - and say thanks to your management team, the players and the fans as well. Make the best decision for your career that you think fit but not for a pot of gold under the rainbow. IHE will simply fondly remember the goals and great moments that you gave to ICT and most fans will watch your future career and support you. But get us to a feckin Cup Final or Europe first ya ginger ****.

Should be instant. Check your junk mail folder though. I registered earlier this evening, and that's where the email went.

This is all Celtic's fault.

He does lead by example..... a truly inspirational captain.

Red and green dots are a luxury enjoyed by those who are incapable of assembling a coherent sentence and they should be done away with. Have a green one on me mate. Mine's a pint of Caledonian 80 at Diggers on the 18th btw!

Translation: "GIRFUY IHE!" I don't think all the negativity the club faced in this matter was just from IHE! Aye we may not always see eye to eye but we dont take the **** when it is serious. And good post Sorted - I hope that you are spot on but behind the scenes is a different matter - so me the books and I will eat a whole plate of Humble Pie.

The reason we have poor support at home games is the influence of the big two! Sadly enough for us there is quiet a few Glory Hunting youngsters and even older people in the city and we just can't convince them to come and support ICT as we can't guarantee glory come end of the season..however if I were a fan of any side of the Old Firm I would be pretty embarrassed the now!

I believe that this is true. No-one is perfect and we all make mistakes from time to time, but in general our boards (over the years) have steered us through some pretty tricky football and financial turmoils. I just wish that at times it had been done with less spin or at the very least spin that wasnt as shoddily created. Personally, I am not slow to give credit where I feel it is due, and conversely, I will dish out criticism as and where I also feel it is due. Based on the information we had available to us at the time, I dont feel sorry for criticising the club ... I am just happy I was proved wrong !!!! To put a positive finish on this - and it is something I have said before - I have always said that the club should just be honest with us. Give us the good news when it happens, give us the bad news when it happens, but basically give us the news (and truth) regardless of what it is. That way rumours get quoshed and facts come out and we can deal with them and then move on. The club went through a spell of 4 or 5 years where even the slightest bit of news should probably have come to us via WikiLeaks given how closely they wanted to guard it at a management level (despite it pouring out from other sources like a sieve). But fortunately, they now have an operations director who is customer focused, straight talking and more than willing to embrace the concept that fans can handle and process more information than they are used to giving out, and can also bring improvements to the table via fan/club partnerships at all levels .... hopefully that continues

Disappointed at the lack of humble pie munching going on in this thread (Scotty apart) but as usual, the opportunity to praise or apologise isn't as exciting as the chance to savage (no pun intended ) or lambast. Delighted for our club and in particular, our much maligned board. They stuck by their guns and ultimately, were proven to have told the truth. I hope our legal costs are huge and I hope the club pursues compensation to the very end. Our board get far more, way more, right than they get wrong. When you look around at the state of other clubs the length and breadth of the country we should be delighted to have what we have. Granted, like every institution, they get things wrong at times but for this poster, any mistakes made are far outweighed by successes. Do us good to remember that more often. As for Marius (nothing personal, only met the guy once) but like many involved in our game , the £ or $ or € comes first. He never had a burning desire to play for our club, couldn't wait to get away and took some bad advice. I await publication of the full judgement with interest (not on CAS site) as I'm pretty certain it will conclusively prove our board were 100% right and the player (and his advisors) 100% wrong. This will not be an "on balance" case. No doubt there will be more to come in the Scottish Courts but I have faith in our system too. Wait to see. Meantime, delighted that our cash (the money generated by punters going to football) will stay in our game and at our club , not lining the pockets of mercenary players or agents with no interest in our club. Well done George and Co!! PS. Make sure he coffs up for the parking charges at the airport!!!!

I don't think you can expect any more hugs from Marius after these comments sonny In a year of really good results, this may be the best of the lot.

We have been subjected to a lot about integrity recently, referee's inparticular.Yesterdays referee did little to champion their cause with his display. This is not a comment I would normally make, but what really gave me cause for concern was the booking of Miller. Miller ran almost the length of the pitch to offer his advise to the ref and it was as if it was an after thought that the ref booked him, had it been a caley player he would have been booked before a word of advice was given. The other thing that I found distasteful was a team of the talant of Rangers should rely on players who consider cheating a perfectly legitimate way to win a game. McCulloch built like a brick ----- house would have not of out of place in the Dying Swan. Although to far away to see it Bettie was no better believe. What we require is integrity within the game, Caley Thistle and its management team would be an example to all.

Craigy, you have used the term "honest mistakes" in your thread title and then in your post imply that the referee yesterday gave the penalty to Rangers because he's a Rangers fan and wants to see then in the Champion's league! How on earth do you expect anybody to take you seriously? How about using your own forum to suggest your obnoxious manager treats referees with a bit more respect instead of coming on here to have a dig at Rangers.

Bit of an update , Marius has today reviewed the decision from CAS with his lawyers and there is both grounds and avenue for appeal. Marius will be appealing

C'mon DC, Behave yourself....This is an absolutely massive fixture.

Translation: "GIRFUY IHE!" Looking for the green dots eh - can remember YOU having a lot to say at the time as well. Bring on the feckin red dots if they have to come - at least I stick by my principles ya CREEP - and lets not forget who almost took this club down the feckin tubes in the first place (and many posters agreed at the time)- and the other issues attached to those two seasons. And before the personal "insults" I was going to let this rest. But lets give praise where praise is due - the Muppets have learned from their mistakes and the fortunate intorduction of TB and a few other changes have brought this club up to SPL standard. They have learned from their mistakes and are becoming more and more "professional by the day" - can only be good fer the club. But some can blame the likes of me BUT we were in "CRISIS" because of inane decisions. So smack me with all the red dots ya feckin care to give me - cos if ya dont agree you are either deluded or feckin unaware of what happened. I hope that this post shows how much I actually CARE - I am eating humble pie but if TB hadnt come along and Brewster hadnt been pushed (by the fans)we may all be feckin starving.

As i said in the match thread I'm a Celtic fan, i thought that this would be relevant with yet another honest mistake in Rangers favour yesterday. I know most fans outside of the old firm think that the old firm always get all the decisions but i cant really think of any dodgy decisions that Celtic have benefited from over the last three seasons, now i know that they probably have benefited from some somewhere along the line but i wouldn't have noticed them as im biased in favour of Celtic however i strongly doubt that they or any other club in Scotland have benefited from anywhere near the same amount of blatantly wrong decisions as Rangers have at a time when it has been essential for Rangers very existence that they make the champions league. Now put yourself in the refs shoes, if you supported Rangers and you knew if they didn't get into the champions league they could go bankrupt would you be able to turn down a penalty claim from Rangers or would you find yourself looking for reasons to give them penalties or to chop of goals for the other team? Another thing is aren't refs supposed to be marked down for poor performances and be demoted if they keep performing badly?How then was Dougie Mcdonald allowed to keep on making mistakes in Rangers favour without being demoted?
