Sorry to go pre-merger but if you were a pre 1994 Caley or Jags fan then the journey has been incredible, bordering on the miraculous. A definite footballing fairy tale. There are still times that I need to slap myself to believe what has happened. Then I pour a voddie and watch SO many great post 1994 memories. Apologies but I think that Joonya's possible "problem" is that he and may others are NOT born and bred Inverness supporters. We have been through some bad times BUT the club were attached to us for eternity. Supporting the same team ALL your life says it all. Some people came across ICT as their rise started. Last season must have been a nightmare to them. To me we stayed in the Championship, won a cup and appear to have more about us. As for more nonsense about the Board. IMHO let them concentrate on the finances and the politics. The people who I want to hear from are Robbo and the players and NOT the board. And look at our management team. At least we know that 100% commitment will be prioritized. An old adage but some of the mercenaries that we have picked up in recent seasons simply did not know what "playing for the shirt" means.

For two seasons now I've struggled to find any degree of passion towards the club I once adored. In fact my last game was a 1-1 derby day draw on 18th March 2017 (my only game for that season too, with none [obviously] for last term!). It was as though winning the Scottish Cup and getting into Europe completely killed any ambition within the club. Losing the likes of Ryan, Graeme and Marley probably didn't help either. It seemed to me like Richie was sold down the river and whatever 'progress' the club attempted to make, it always seemed the 'cheap' option with no ambition or consideration behind decisions. To be fair, hanging up my boots and an ever reducing amount of enthusiasm for the beautiful game probably didn't help. This season, it seems different. Recruiting Barry as a coach, Scott as assistant, and Ryan Esson as goalkeeping coach, it all just seems to fit right for ICT. Hearing how the new recruits have fitted in is encouraging and even the new kit looks smart. The league itself looks like it'll be the most entertaining for years. It's got the feel of 2003 about it where any one could challenge for the title. I'm interested to see what others have to say about their ICT experiences over the past two or three years and what people's thoughts are for the future of this club. There'll undoubtedly be those who say 'support the club through think and thin' and I understand that notion. Sometimes, it's just not that easy.

Let's just try and win our next game. Reckon it may be harder than some folks are expecting.

Pretty straightforward, when you watch your side win, you are excited for the next game, everything is rosy. When you toil, you find yourself in a rage at games, it's difficult to motivate yourself to go. You question players desire and work ethic or the managers tactics. Either way, it's part of football. We as fans can't control it. We are extremely fortunate to have had the experiences we have. Looks just down the A96 a bit. There biggest achievement in a couple of decades is a draw with us! Life isn't so bad after all is it.

Shocking Political Feckin Losers

Ok, I am now really confused .... you deduct 0 points or 3 points, not 2 out of 3 points !!! .... If you are effectively calling the game an administrative draw and letting Hearts keep 1 point then surely Cove should get the other point for the 'draw' !!! This decision makes no sense almost any way you slice and dice it.

The only thing missing from the decision is awarding the deducted points to Cove, IMO. Mistakes happen and I don't think this was of such magnitude to warrant killing off their chances in the group stages. Only thing that is of concern is that every case such as this that comes up seems to be dealt with differently, and that inconsistency will ultimately lead to claims of favourable treatment...or otherwise.

It's supporting a football team not climbing Mount Everest.

Rumour has it that Kyle went through Sean, just back after a couple of years of injury hell, they did the head to head starey thing and that was about it. So, welcome Sean.

I suspect that they will forfeit the three points. If so, quite an incentive for ourselves and Raith Rovers.
