I'll see Kilmarnock and raise you a Europa League draw song:

How could we forget this. 3-0 down at Kilmarnock and who else would start a conga........ Absolutely brilliant. Some guy! Jump to 1:40 and all will be revealed

I agree with your post, and he will indeed but let's keep this thread about Johndo. Sympathy and memories. Anything else can go to its own or another pre-existing thread.

This just happened to pop up on my timeline today. 9 years ago. "When I die and they lay me to rest, gonna go on the piss in Bucharest"

Absolutely gutted to hear this. I didn't know Johndo super well but I'd chatted to him fair a number of times, particularly at away games. He was a character that was larger than life and one you just don't forget. ICT is diminished by his loss, my heart goes out to his family. Wherever he is, I hope he finds his way to Telford Street and the Howden End is there, plus plenty of Vodka! RIP sir.

The saddest of news and my thoughts at this time are with his family, and with everyone close to and friends with Johndo over the years. For those who played football in Inverness "back in the day" everyone seemed to know everyone, particularly their peers across Inverness regardless of which side of the bridge you were from, through School football, Boys Brigade, Street League, Youth League and beyond. it's poignant to see the old photos presented as a tribute and to read all the memories.

Sorry Don.....you're beat. A one-off. Certainly enriched my life.

Pretty sure the board won't have any idea either

Still waiting on new strips, still waiting on new season ticket card for my youngster , still waiting on confirmation on my offer of sponsorship, that will tell you where we are one would think

I know IHE was properly ICT most fanatical fan, however without being crass, I just hope the club don’t have the temerity to take advantage here and issue some half assed sympathy note to curry some (false) credit. IHE will be remembered long after this board are long forgotten!

Quite a few in the League Cup last night: Graeme Shinnie for Aberdeen, George Oakley and Jay Henderson for Ayr, Roddy MacGregor (2) for Queens Park, Nathan Austin (2) for East Fife and Jordan White for Ross County.

Jeez, it's so difficult coming to terms losing a mate and fellow Caley / ICT fan, Johndo seems to have been all things about our team over the years. So sorry for the family. He will be badly missed, hope he meets up with Big Stu and Bronson.

A huge character leaving an even bigger hole that can never be filled. RIP IHE.

So sorry to hear of the loss of Johndo - thoughts are with his family at this very sad time

So sad to hear this news. Rest easy friend. Met him , purely by chance , in a bar before Hamilton play off away game and he was in great form. Condolences to his family.

I remember him as a young lad from Lochend and played football against him in the Welfare League. The last time I saw him he was being escorted from the ground by security! He will be so sorely missed. My condolences to his family.

What awful news. Such a shock. I usually only met him in pre or post match pubs, mainly at 'away' matches, all over the south of Scotland. I had left Inverness by the time Johndo had become a stalwart in the Howden End. He will be greatly missed. Condolences to his family. R.I.P. I'll raise a 'vodie' or two to you this evening.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Johndo in person but the passion in his posts on CTO were fantastic from his match day reports the last one from Annan only 10 days ago to his fun threads like Panto time a Christmas and even his passion for Olde Inverness always with a bit of humor. We will miss him on this forum and my thoughts at this sad time are with his family and friends.

There's nothing more that I can add to what everyone else has already said I, like everyone, am truly stunned and saddened by this news. My thoughts go out to Johndo's friends, family, and the ICT community for this massive loss. RIP IHE

Devastating news and my thoughts are with his family at this time. It's a hard one to process and as much as the fecker could make life tough for those running the forum at times, it was impossible to dislike him. As with others, I have so many memories and so many stories. Although I'm not sure all of them are for sharing If I had a stamp, I'd lick it in his honour at the match tonight. Rest well you loveable, difficult, old barsteward.

Echo the thoughts of others and wish Mark, as well as any other players pushed out by this Junta the very best for the coming season and beyond. Hopefully, some of our most loyal servants can be tempted back to a coaching or other role within the club at some point in the future when we re-establish a forward-facing community club ethos.

I favour a 5-4-1, with a full-back, winger and striker in the midfield, plus a non-scoring forward up front. We need to get a load of loanees in though, otherwise the players will waste the ball by shooting. For goodness sake, keep that ball in your own half where it can't do any harm!

So sad. I knew Johndo from the old Academy days, he was in the year above. I too remember the mock election Johndo won, his theme tune being Alice Coopers I want to be elected. Played football with him as well and was certainly led astray on school football trips abroad as well as in this country. Hadn't seen him for a few years but he still was a great character. RIP my friend and condolences to your family.
