I'll give it the benefit of doubt and chalk that down to the lack of match practice recently. Everything was just a bit flat. If we're still seeing the same after the next 3 or 4 games then we're in a bit of trouble.

That was a little frustrating to say the least. It felt that we were lucky not to lose it with both Hamilton and Doolan missing great chances. As with last week we completely lost our way as the 2nd half wore on. Any ideas what Roddy McGregor has done to be jettisoned to the bench? He was probably our best player earlier in the season so I find it odd that he's getting so little game time now when his skill set seems to be exactly what we need.

Very doubtful that we'll see anyone coming in at this stage. We're the only club in the division not to make a signing & strengthen and worst of all we've lost a key player in Kennedy to a rival. Finances and Geography obviously playing a part but I'd be very interested to know what the actual ambitions are for the season.

If you're planning on buying kids strips make sure you size up. I bought age 5-6 for my 3.5 year old and it'll barely last him the season. There's not quite as much growing room as I'd hoped (although admittedly he is tall for his age).

Worth the wait to be fair....

Your missing the point, I don't expect any statement to say anything. The club chose to put out a statement that made reference to forthcoming announcements on things- I'm just pointing out the fact that they haven't done any of it. Anyway, plenty of clubs are selling season tickets as a way to generate cash and allow suporters to show support. Have a look at the likes of Hearts and Hibs to see what I mean. New strips can also generate some revenue and lots of Scottish clubs have found novel ways to generate both money and goodwill (e.g. face masks). The club shouldn't be putting out statements to say they're going to do something if they're not going to do it. I also refer you to the statement on 12th May regarding the Record article to which nothing happened.

Club statement from 10/05/20 states that the club would be announcing news this month- with only 1 day left I'm fairly sure that they're going to miss that deadline. The same statement also states news on season tickets would be out within a week- also hasn't happened. Our CEO has also disappeared from the face of the earth....

Top flight clubs might vote for it but the championship clubs won't. Our name is mud- actually our CEO's name is mud and if it benefits him Championship clubs are less likely to vote for it. To say our relationships with the other clubs in the Championship are strained is an understatement. We've also not heard the last of WhatsAppgate either......

Quite the riposte to the Record article.

Yep, the more that seems to be coming out the more uncomfortable I feel about the position and actions we've taken. I see that our CEO has locked his social media accounts down which is interesting as he's had plenty to say so far. Im still giving him the benefit of the doubt as until proven otherwise we have to assume everything he says is exactly how it all happpened- however we can't say we weren't warned.

Nobody is coming out of this looking good.

I see that the final section of today's statement confirms the new Puma deal. It doesn't make reference to them specifically but rather a new technical partner as well as related improved online offerings. I'm glad to see this happening as in the current climate with no revenue coming in we need to try and find revenue from somewhere. A new shirt, more merchandise and some additional 25th anniversary goodies is one way to do this and encourage fans to spend some cash on the club if they can.

The only people who benefit from players taking a wage cut are the already wealthy owners and executives. It won't stop them furloughing non playing staff. Other than as a government deflection tactic there's not much sense to this witch-hunt on players. The players themselves have stated they want to help and some have floated having a % of salary deducted and put directly to funding good causes (NHS equipment etc.) This article is well worth a read Football 365 article

Final score probably flattered Hibs but we didn't help ourselves. Competed well for the majority of the match but undone by the speed of foot and thought by Hibs on the break - game was done when we went down to 10 men. Stupid, cynical tackle from Brad McKay. No need to do it especially after we'd just got ourselves back into the match. I don't think we'll be weakened by his absence. I know he gave the ball away for one of the goals but I was massively impressed with Dave Carson. He's improving with every match having stepped up to full time football - hopefully Welsh is fit to partner him in midfield for the run in. I really think if we get Welsh fit we're a shoe in for 2nd and have a chance of going up.

I'm also very heartened to see public displays of support from executives at other clubs for the statement- namely the excellent Alan Burrows at Motherwell and Leanne Dempster at Hibs.

Normally our club statements leave me utterly mortified but tonights is outstanding. Utterly magnificent take down of the SFA.

Not the first of our players to say the same thing so I wonder how bad it was to get singled out.

And what about those supporters who made neither due to not living in the country for example? It was a daft comment to make on Facebook by Jim Oliver, at best naive and at worst crass & insensitive. There's no such thing as a 'true' supporter, anyone who supports the club in any shape or form is more than welcome.

Legend: Charlie Christie. Moment: Hissy's header v Clyde. That changed everything.

I'd heard similar but dismissed it as the usual Chinese whispers. However, reading between the lines of the EGM notice it wouldnt shock me- certainly reads like a plea.

Away to Ballymena, Glenavon or Bohemians please. Any of these would be a 'home' game for me..... Waterford also acceptable at a push.

Absolute bobbins. It's been the same since the start of the league cup, 4-4-2 and hoofing it to White isn't going to cut it. Even the subs have been pretty much the same every week with barely any minutes for the youngsters.

If Mark Ridgers hadn't chucked one in that was a stick on 0-0 but make no mistake, we were terrible. Unless something changes this could be another season of grinding out draws. We really need Welsh back ASAP as 2 of Trafford, Vincent & Carson isn't good enough to get the ball to Doran & Walsh in good enough positions. Far too many hoofs up the park. Disappointing to concede yet another goal originating from our right hand side. He might not be directly involved but all too often Brad McKay is beaten too easily or out of position. Would like to see more of Roddy McGregor in that central position as there's a massive Liam Polworth shaped hole at the minute. Trafford, Carson and Vincent don't have the ability to drive forward with ball and pick passes in the final 3rd.

Who's David Dowling supporting this week then?

Very sad news this. Football in inverness owes a massive debt of gratitude to John for the amount of work he put in over such a long period. He must have helped launch so many careers at so many levels during that time. It was always a pleasure to play in his teams.
