A vital and most welcome boost to our coffers at this most difficult of times. Once again. Thanks to the Hearts fans who came up with this wonderful gesture and everyone, Hearts fan, ICT fan or no fan at all who has contributed in their own modest way. There is much to criticise in Scottish football but it is also important to give full praise and credit where it's due and it is most certainly due here.

Just read article on Hearts fan site about a wee girl gave her pocket money to her dad for a ticket. This is getting really huge and loads of coverage. Might even get a mention from Sportscene.

Over 9000! A windfall of something between £45k and £90k with two weeks to go. https://ictfc.com/virtual-ticket-sales-go-over-9000

Craig Fowler. Fancies himself too much in my opinion! I agree, the others are pretty good.

Indeed, and regardless of how many games we have in hand it's better to have the points on the board.

If Robbo had any sense he would be training the youth teams to copy his signature and get a wee production line going.

Thousands of signatures for Robbo to do. He is going to be in some difficulty in explaining himself when he turns up at A&E with repetitive strain injury to his right wrist.

I'm a South London based ICT fan and I've twice unsuccessfully tried to come up to watch Caley play at your ground, last autumn because of Covid [I was a bit optimistic] and in December 2015 when the match was called off due to high winds [when we landed the night before I don't think the plane was horizontal until we touched down!] Edinburgh is one of my favourite places in the World [after Inverness of course] so I will still keep trying. Interestingly I am also a Crystal Palace fan and we both shared a manager in Craig Burley, who experienced torrid times at both clubs..Palace virtually ended his career, although I think he had personal problems. Palace have been in Administration three times and nearly disappeared in 2010, so I have empathy with Hearts own recent troubles. This has been a brilliant initiative fantastically supported by the Hearts fans, and shows the better side of football and fans in particular. I think you guys might get promoted this season, maybe with a good run and momentum from all our postponed games we can attach ourselves to your coattails and come up via the play-offs.

If you want to be pedantic then it is recent ticket sales for a home match in Inverness. In fact, for any sporting fixture in the Highlands and a magnificent effort from Hearts fans, our fans and neutrals alike. The next target is to surpass our record ever home attractive of 9,530 against the Dons when the Hill of Dung was our temporary home. Continue to spread the word, with over a fortnight to go I am sure that we can do it and generate more much needed income at such a difficult time.

We are in danger of hitting the bottom today should Alloa beat Arbroath. Only goal difference will be in our favour. Should Arbroath take a point we will be second bottom, now there's a sobering thought.

It got a mention on A View from the Terrace last night. The guys were not very complimentary and two of them are Jambos.
