This is the thread about the team formerly known as Rangers and the new team called Sevco 5088 Franchise Newco Newcorpse Zombie FC 2012.

I grew up supporting the club when crowds of 1500-2000 were the norm. I think im fairly right in saying the first home game after feb 8th there was an attendance of 1700 or something lol. Saturday was the 1st time in 8 years we dropped below 3000 and only by 52 or something. I see some people have joked about people not making the game bcz of being at the kirk, well i know of quite a few where that was indeed the reason. I had work along with no doubt a few others. Not to mention that its a month before christmas and folk are obviosly saving and lastly, it was on the telly! I'll worry if our next home game is below the 3000 mark but, for now, im not to worried! On the thing about Invernessians not supporting us. I disagree, i think theres a fairly large home support or a large number of locals who wish us well. Its just peoples expectations have changed and just expect us to be in the SPL and the 'new' novelty has gone. There is no rush to go watch us now. (Thats why i think there was a massive home crowd for the derby, its been along time since there was a derby). Likewise we now expect to see 3000-4000 at TCS when its not that long ago that was unheard of.

Did someone say sickie?

Perhaps their brains have been muddled by the use of the products that made them the money.

Perhaps he's a referee?

Invernessians have little interest in ICT , our support is made up of incomers in the main .

I'm going to be totally honest with you here. We're probably not going to sign Starvin' Marvin the Ethiopian from South Park. He's still got 18 months left on his contract and South Park want too high a fee. Looks like Marvin Andrews signing might not be until January now. He can't get someone to look after his cat. He will be free for weddings from January as well KB. ;)

Starchief, you're wrong on both terms as the correct name of "Dusseldorf" is Duesseldorf, although I know quite a few idiots from there, too. KB, the more I think about the size of Herzogenaurach compared to the next big city (Nuremberg) and take the raltion to Inverness the more I have to admit you're right

That figure, Forza Cale,y was achievable on occasion when Caley and Thistle were in the Highland League. Mind you , in them thar days, an adult could get in the stand for 2 shillings and sixpence--which seemed like a heck of a lot of money to a wee boy like me at that time. Stratospheric actually. Mind you, players could be transferred for pittances--one player decided to go to Elgin for 50 pounds more in his pocket, fer goodness sake.

it may be you haven't a clue Alex

With the rightful demise of Rangers, its just as well that our neighbours across the bridge got promoted, otherwise our average home attendance would be even lower than its current pathetic level. I just can't understand the apathy in Inverness towards ICT and SPL football. I can't believe that it harps back to the 'merger'. Someone on here hinted that Inverness doesn't deserve an SPL team. I'm beginning to think that has got more than a grain of truth in it. After all the trauma of the merger in the early 90s and the brilliant performance working our way up through the leagues in about 10 years, it is an absolute travesty that the bulk of the indiginous support apparently couldn't care less.

Well I never believed in that psychological crap anyway !!!

The pages got a bit sticky ... he replaced it with an Escort
