  1. Though I'm sure nobody will admit to it at the moment, his club's chairman has to be starting to get a wee bit worried about the manager's state of mind and some of the things he is saying. I know I would. I do not think his job is in danger presently but surely his old man or Roy MacGregor need to take him to one side and calm him down. He really is spouting nonsense. Two offside goals? No. He should think about how many minutes his team has led against us in three games this season. The answer is just one

  2. I honestly despair at the comments of the “voices of reason” on here. You guys must have been an absolute barrel of laughs in your youth. The smoke bomb (not a flare) was completely harmless and added a bit of colour to proceedings at Dingwall. I can assure you we got up to a lot worse back in the good old/bad old days of the eighties and early nineties If you’ve ever watched football on the continent you will no doubt have been impressed by the pyrotechnics and general mayhem that goes on inside the stadiums. Regardless of what clubs and the authorities say it’s instrumental in making football the great spectacle it is. The Northern Constabulary are using a totally harmless incident to justify over zealous policing of home fans who are probably the most meek and mild support in Scottish football. Let’s face it they collectively sh!t their pants when the old firm are in town and let them run riot inside and outside the stadium. The young lads in Section E are quite simply an easy target for them in comparison. So endeth the rant.... Old Heads Contre le Foot Moderne.

  4. Another new account here, however most likely a different view than others (older wiser head quite possibly). First and foremost, like many others have said reap what you sow. Now I am not that active on twitter, however it was easy to see on the lead up to the game at County that #SMOKEBOMBS were going to be used. First tip, if you want to get away with it don't brag about it on networks as easy accessible as the likes of twitter it will only come back to bite you on the arse as it has showed now. Some of those on here who are complaining about the actions taken have put photos up of the incident. Think lads, just think. Maybe the police did go over the top, however 7 officers in the grand scheme of things is not a large amount, filming yes a step too far however as someone has previously said this can't come directly from the club, they cannot make that decision. Caley are a family club and want to protect that reputation it generates more fans which in turn generates more income. Anyone seen to damage it will be sought out unfortunately. Easier for them to ban one or two 'troublesome' fans and gain positive publicity than losing a family of supporters. Every team has more boisterous fans, and almost every fan will do something in the safety of numbers that he/she wouldn't do in the street. It is the mob mentality and it has happened for many many years and will continue to happen (I myself have had a ban imposed on me that stopped me from following Scotland internationally). However you need to know at Caley you will be caught out, I see someone mentioned Celtic last night against Arbroath, when teams like this let them off they stick together and it is near impossible to tell just who has let it off and who is holding it. It's not worth the Police or Stewards time to go in and trying to find the main perpatrator. Obviously Caley don't have this, which is why IMO it was thrown on to the pitch against County because whoever let it off knew they would be caught within seconds. Now those who stand in Section E/G wherever, this isn't me having a go at you. I speak to a few of you and you do seem a good bunch, all be it a few who can't handle their drink but again you get those in all supports. Support the side, by having a good laugh not spending the night in a cell and having an expensive court case to pay out for.

  5. Oh yes it does. And as it is pantomime season I would like to put in a "plug" for Cinderella that is being shown at the Porthmahomack Palace at starring Laurence and Dougal.

  8. I thought it was laughable when the police started filming. They must think they're dealing with the ICF! It's even more laughable hearing folk defending the police actions! There is no justification for the heavy handedness shown towards the young ones who do their best to generate a bit of atmosphere at the games. So what if a smoke bomb was thrown at Dingwall. It was completely harmless, and caused no damage. And the 'idiot' on the pitch? Well, equalising with the last kick of the ball against your rivals in the cup might just be reason enough for those actions. Again, no harm done. I don't remember the same condemnations directed at the many hundreds who invaded the pitch a couple of times at Ayr a few years ago.

  9. It's not VP any longer so let's not call it that. The shadows are quick enough to slag us off about selling out 18 years ago so let's just remember they've just franchised their stadium!

  10. Their sleepy wee forum's fair getting a boost with all you guys in the past fortnight....... To be fair I had a look myself and most of them accept they've got a limited squad and doing OK considering, but one or two roasters eh. Every ref and linesman in Scotland's got it in for their multi-talented squad and plotting to stop them winning a clean sweep this season. They don't hate us much though.

  11. Excellent work and good to see that Scotland's top whistler Craig Thomson really did cheat C(o)unty at the penalty while wearing his ICT shirt under his ref's top (insert 'sarcasm' smiley in case Oddquine is about). Sheesh......

  13. I never take flares to a game. In fact I don't wear flares at all. Soooooooooo 1970's man. I don't mind being filmed. In fact I've even starred in a few low budget movies in the past. In one I had to go and fix this photocopier as these 2 secretaries in very short skirts were working late...

  14. Totally agree Chris, all the stuff with Vigurs was banter. He celebrates in front of us and gets dogs abuse. I celebrate in front of him at the end and get a bit of abuse back, all fair game I think.

  17. A couple were Christmas shopping on Christmas Eve and the whole place was heaving, packed with other last minute shoppers. Walking through the shopping centre the surprised wife looked up from a window display and noticed her husband was nowhere to be seen. She knew they had lots still to do and she became very upset. She rummaged in her handbag and found her mobile phoned then used it to call her husband to ask him where he was. The husband in a calm voice replied: "Darling, you remember the jewellery shop we went into five years ago, where you fell in love with that diamond necklace that we could not afford and I told you that one day I would get it for you...?" His wife's eyes filled with tears of emotion, she began to cry softly and stifling a sob she whispered: "Yes, I remember that jewellery shop..." "Well," he said, "I'm in the pub next door!" .......

  18. Vigurs goal is superb, but I don't think he did himself any favors with the celebration. I did notice he was pointing to his name as he strode back for the re start too. To read that he'd also gestured to a fan at full time too is a disgrace. He's become some what of a Dougie Imrie character for me - All that talent, but his attitude, ego and arrogance let him down

  19. For once I agree with Dougal, particularly with his final sentence. Once people get a reputation, it's very hard to have it eradicated and for people to change their minds. Personally, I thought the majority of times Section E (formally Section G) were chastised, it was uncalled for and heavy handed. There were, however, times that it was necessary and justified. The smoke bomb at Victoria Park may not have been ANY of the Section E crowd. But with the bad reputation they'd gained, particularly in the Mike Smith era, there is really only going to be one group in the whole stadium that's going to be watched more closely than any other. Banner for the original fixture - Fantastic idea and appreciated by every single ICT fan (and no doubt the club too) Smoke bomb for the original fixture - Not so much a good idea, and one that has brought about the 'bad' tag for certain sections of the support, regardless of if it was them

  20. Well I am on ma way home on the train. As far as I am concerned the better team won and we are in the next round. In the first half, until Vigurs scored as good a goal as you can get - as in the first game - we were a class above and if we had hit a second we could have waltzed it. County were really up fer it and showed that they had far more to prove than we did. The conditions favoured the underdog and affected our footballing prowess. Some of our players had an off day but - feck me - at the end of the day it is all about who scores the most goals - and we feckin did. That was County - in the second half - at 150% and us playing at 70-80% - so what does that tell ya. Plus we would have capitulated before and despite putting on an apparent remake of the Alamo - it was more like feckin Bannockburn. And we played the same starting eleven again and we kept our winning run going. It will be a different story when we feck them on 02/01/2013.

    • Dundee United 1-1 Inverness CT - Report
      Hopes amongst the Caley Jags support were at rock bottom ahead of this one with the threat of relegation looming large. With all hands to the pumps, Shaw, Boyes and Ujdur were brought back into the squad whilst not really 100% fit. Shaw started as did Pepple and Boyes with Billy Mckay, Lawal and Danny Devine dropping to the bench. Cammy Harper was given the Captain's armband today. It's a daunting task going to the lions den to face title favourites but underdog is our preferred tag. Anyway, 252 of them turned up at Tannadice in eternal hope and Duffy heightened the intensity only for Louis Moult to level things up. That's how it ended, a result we would have bitten your hand off before kick off.

    • Inverness CT 1-2 Ayr United - Report
      Having sat through one of the worst games for many a year there is little to hope for now apart from Arbroath to keep losing because we certainly appear to find it difficult to win. We have no game changers in our squad and our manager is playing the wrong type of anti-football to help our cause. Big Dunc thought we were the better team. Pleeeeeaaase, give me a break! We were second to everything and Ayr were always one step ahead of us after the first three minutes. SHOCKER springs to mind.

    • Inverness CT 0-0 Airdrieonians - Report
      These two sides looked as though they could play for the whole of March without scoring. In terms of opportunities, the hosts probably shaded it, but when we did miss the first defender, crosses invariably went behind the incoming strikers. On the one occasion we got on the end of the ball Billy Mckay's flicked header was cleared away from goal by Kanayo Megwa.
      Not the worst 0-0 draw ever, but scoring opportunities were at a premium. Neither keeper was overly troubled and this game had scoreless written all over it given the evidence of the first twenty minutes.

    • Inverness CT -V- Airdrieonians - Preview
      Promoted Airdrie are sitting in fifth place in the table, just below the play-off places with former Caley Jag Nikolay Todorov getting amongst the goals and he will provide a big test for our central defence. We have found Airdrie a difficult proposition at times this season but we did win the last home encounter against them.

    • Morton 0-2 Inverness CT - Report
      What a start for Inverness and Billy Mckay, who answered his abusers from last week by opening the scoring in the second minute, firing into the top corner after an assist from Cammy Harper. Robbie Muirhead looked to respond but Mark Ridgers was equal to his effort in the fifth minute. Ten minutes before the interval Sean McAllister curled in a low free kick from the edge of the box to double our advantage and open his scoring account at Inverness. Plenty of bookings but no further scoring saw Inverness pick up a vital three points in the relegation battle although we still remain in ninth spot but only two points from Dunfermline in fifth.
