Libero

Wendy house has been taken down IIRC

Looks like Reguero might learn pretty quickly that the grass isn't always greener on the other side. Look at Tuffey, he moved away for first team football and has barely featured at all, think he has played two first team games this season

Todays P&J is reporting that MK Dons had scouts up at the weekend watching Doran. With him still to sign a new deal it is a little worrying that clubs are sniffing about. He had a good game on Saturday other than a couple of wayward shots. Still a very important player for us and one which we could really do with signing up to a new deal asap

Heard that Ferry was on around £2-£2.5k at Swindon so possibly out-with our price range unless he was willing to take a price drop I read that Scott Arfield was released and while I would love to see him up here, there appears to be a few clubs after him. One being Coventry who would not only be able to offer more money but would link him up with his old boss Steven Pressley

Do you know for certain that McInnes hasn't spoken to Pawlett in a more suitable setting to let him know what he really thinks? i.e. away from the glare of the media Of course I don't know, I'm all for a manager protecting a player in the media when it is warranted but for him to back a player in public and berate him behind closed doors would be hugely hypocritical and in my opinion hugely unprofessional

Surely a new manager would want to enforce to his players that these sort of shenanigans would play no part in his regime. All he has done is pave the way for his players to do it again. Epic fail for McInnes on this one if you ask me

Todays P&J says that Gibbons has returned to QPR as well

Butcher "very excited" by potential new players: http://www.inverness-courier.co.uk/Sport/Football/Butcher-very-excited-by-potential-new-players-18042013.htm

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21881457 Well done OTJ

as much as I despise it, that is exactly what motivates most footballers nowadays

Yaaaasssss!!

To be honest I would be happy with Warren, Meekings, Hogg and Devine as CBs for next season. Whether Hogg and make his way back to the first team and recapture his best form remains to be seen. I certainly hope he does. Anyone even know what is wrong with King? I cant remember the last time I saw him in the team

Draper deal not signed yet but looks pretty close: http://www.inverness-courier.co.uk/Sport/Football/Draper-set-to-stay-with-ICT-04032013.htm delighted to hear Draper is one of the players set to re-sign with us. He's been a great signing for Butcher and has been one of our best players so far this season

2 year deal signed ya beauty http://ictfc.com/news/club-news/823-garys-staying

I see Terry and Kenny have differing views on the potential shake up of Scottish football. A bit surprising to see our manager and chairman publicly coming out to the media divulging contrasting views. So whos stance do the CTO massive back? Terry or Kenny?

6 goals in 3 games for Higdon against us this season. You would think by now we would realise that he needs to be nullified!! whether it is man marking or doubling up marking on him

double FFS. 3-0

FFS

We really need to start taking our chances. that has been the biggest disappointment of the last few games for me. If we dont start taking them then our slide down the table will be rapid and with so many teams close together on points then all it would take would a couple of more games without winning and we could be mid-table or worse

IMO Shane is a tough player to categorize into a position. His heading, strength, shooting and (for the most part) dribbling are all pretty good however his touch and hold up play let him down. If he could improve his hold up play then he would turn out to be a good target man forward however at the moment i think he is more suited to being a winger. I remember his goal against Motherwell at home (a couple of seasons ago IIRC) when he was playing on the right wing, he beat a couple of players out wide, drifted in and unleashed an unstoppable shot past the Motherwell keeper. That sort of play led me to think that coming in off the wing was his strongest asset, unfortunately due to other players doing better in his position and showing more consistency Shane has been consigned to being a bit part player. I think given a prolonged run in the team or indeed any team then he could refine his skills and become a good SPL player, its just unfortunate here at the moment that we dont have many back up strikers to Billy McKay so we cant loan him out to get playing time and also the form of McKay/Shinnie et al is keeping him out

I'd have started him over Ross for that position yeah. I presumed Foran would have fallen back into that position with Ross taking a more wide midfielder/winger type role Might all change now that Foran is injured

Fans taking their shoes off to display their feelings is quite a good one Take your shoes off for the ICT Take your shoes off if you love...... Take your shoes off if you hate.... etc

Shane Sutherland was our scorer against Celtic U20s, Danny Devine played in the game, thats about all i know

story in Welsh press now: http://www.dailypost.co.uk/sport-news/wrexham-fc/2013/01/03/danny-devine-looks-set-to-choose-inverness-caledonian-thistle-rather-than-wrexham-fc-55578-32535903/

WTF!!
