Adding 2 + 2 together and making 5 maybe but I see Balatoni has left Killie, could he be a possible signing target or is Brad Mackay a done deal? Also reading this guy is being made available for loan. A bit injury prone but could be worth a punt?? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37218234

RF on radio today saying he expects 2 or 3 players to sign this week!

Draper Mulraney Doran

My first sight of ict under new management today and have to say I was a bit shocked at how poor we were. Thought the game was crying out for Richie foran.... the player! Was it a mistake for him to retire? His influence on the pitch was missing. And what exactly is Rice's roll now? Last season he was the one shouting instructions from the technical area but today seemed to take very much a back seat. Is it the case that he's only present because the club cannot afford his severance package? As for the game itself; - it was very noticeable to me how often we were easily out -muscled on the ball by the Dingwall players - Fon Williams had his poorest game for us. He's got to command his area more - Draper was easily our best (only) player - Liked the trickery and pace of mulraney when he came on - Good to see doran back - Very poor crowd, both home and away - the referee.....Totally inept If we're going to continue playing the direct style of football seen today then I think we should be playing 2 up front. On today's evidence I am very worried for this season. Please ict make me eat my words!!!

Great to see the stripes back (and front!). Agree with others that the white collar looks a bit naff. Maybe a black collar would've looked better?....... Is there any black in the strip at all? Have to say though that quality of the carbrini strips makes errea look like world leaders. My youngest has had the away strip since xmas and already all the sponsor lettering on the shorts and all the small lettering on the shirt have come off. At least with errea the sponsors livery was dyed in to the fabric so this couldn't happen. With two kids to kit out and strips being released every season we'll be giving this season's a miss I think, unfortunately, due to the expense and (poor) quality.

Meh. It'll be 'predominantly blue' anyway ffs !

Dumbfounded! We have just 8 players contracted for next season (and even one of those is suggesting he may have to leave!) yet we're not offering a contract to a proven defender that has publicly stated he wants to stay !

Woaft !! That's a pretty stinging criticism of the manager from the chairman, along with delivering a demanding expectation of no worse than a 7th place finish this season and top six next! Awaiting developments.

Disagree.... The atmosphere was great when dave rave appeared in front of the north stand for his warm up! Tonight has totally reaffirmed my belief that josh is not a right back. Get him back alongside warren, get raven back in his rightful place and with Tremarco at left back, who's been improving week on week, we have one of the best back fours in the country and a solid foundation to build from for next season.

Can't help but feel disappointed at losing both. Vincent will always remain a club legend in my mind for scoring the cup winning goal, and Williams, as mentioned above is such a versatile player to have in the squad. It's galling to see an entire team of former players regularly playing against us now: Reguero (think he's at Hibs?) Shinnie Robson Hayes Rooney Cowie Williams Vincent Ross Mckay Ofere Meanwhile we have just 6 players secured for next season! .......and I was thinking this season was difficult!!!

I'm really looking forward to Saturday's game now. No pressure on us to win whatsoever - whoop whoop !

......and scored with his clearance! Then his goal celebration would've included sitting on the crossbar !

Inverness Thistle FC was founded in 1885 and their registered colours were red and black. It wasn't until 1889 that Crown FC was somehow incorporated into Inverness Thistle. Later still, in 1895-96, Union joined with Thistle. Thistle did play initially on what is now the site of Millburn Academy. Crown played at Cameron Barracks, and Union played at Needlefield on/near Longman Road. Apparently the Needlefield pitch was a temporary measure until Kingsmills Park was prepared.

To be fair to Storey he's not really being played as a striker lately. He's being played out wide?

That one's not my video. Though I do have another couple (last ever derby, and Jags last ever game) but as yet haven't managed to transfer them to pc/dvd.

Just for you Deano ......https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phhs3DjI7Kc

Surely long overdue that that article be removed! What purpose does it serve now, 22 years after the merger?

Well don't tell me what happens.......I haven't watched it yet !

Welcome news. Hopefully the out-of-contract players will follow suit and we can have stability of the squad for next season !

Much much better performance today. Deserved more than a point. Great to see GW back too.

Disgraceful performance!

Now that the managerial merry-go-round has (temporarily?) stopped, can we please get as many as possible of the playing/coaching staff signing contract extensions. If this season has seen a bit of a rebuild job I hate to think of how next season could pan out with just four players currently signed up?

Fairly sure north and south stands are 2500 capacity each. Main stand 2280. And west terracing around 400?

So, we have just four players contracted to the club for next season ! Interestingly the management team are also out of contract at the end of this season. Can we expect a mass exodus come January/May ?
