I would vote for independence

The atmosphere is never going to change...unless the reserved apathetic nature of locals changes

If you plan ahead a few weeks...you can get inverness to glasgow for about £20 return on Trainline.com

When i went to see u2 in 2009....i was furious to see that the booking fee increased in line with the price of the ticket. Some mugs were paying £150 for a ticket, with as much as a £6 handling fee charged on top. DISGUSTING (but thats Live Nation for ya). Why should a £150 ticket cost any more to "handle" than a £50 ticket? Pure SCAM!!

I hope the management team have players in mind should any departures be iminent. Seems to be the fashion to leave transfers to the last minute, meaning if you have a thin squad, and that happens...could really leave you in the doo doo for the rest of the season. If i was a manager...id want all my targets in asap, so hopefully we would get a whole extra months worth of points on the board

Forgive me if i am wrong...but didint the club invest a substantial amount on a substantial drainage system for the pitch a few yrs back?

I have even spoken to County fans who say they didnt know how Ross County attendance figuers were arrived at, as they reckoned attendances were always a lot less than publicised. Im sure...i might even of heard that County aoutomatically add in all their season ticket holders on top of the actual attendance...so some people are counted twice

Some people on here have short memories. With 2 highland teams in the SPL it would bring another derby into the sights of TV execs generating more income, more advertising, a general football buzz around the area creating more new fans for both teams. Why would a ICT vs Ross County derby in the SPL be any more appealing than say Motherwell v Hamilton from last season. ICT and Ross county are diddy teams when all is sed and done...with VERY limited appeal..so why people think it would be so appealing outwith the 6000 or so that would turn up for the game, is beyond me

Maybe its like Facebook. When someone gets involved with a partner, they tend to disappear off the face of the earth?

Al take a draw. TBH....last i heard it was 1-0 to hibs...then i never heard we had equalised....so finding the score out was a bonus

You mean...the likes of Rangers and Celtic, who want to play in Europe every season, yet moan about a 170 mile trip up the road

Look how many on here who were creaming themselves when County got to the Scottish Cup Final....and vowing to lend them their support. Never have i felt so dissapointed in ICT "fans". Maybe im an old fashioned "fan" but in my day...you chose a team and stuck with them, and you certainly would NEVER turn up to support your local rivals at any game...let alone a Natioanal Final. I m not a subscriber to this whole support the Highlands team mentality that seems to be rife up here. And i am 90% certain that IF County made it to the SPL...ICTs income would take a hammering!

Awh man....i struggle with change :wacko:...still.....c'est la vie

County second half of the season will crumble, im pretty sure of it. Personally....i dont want to see them anywhere near the SPL as ICT are currently the biggest draw in the region...last thing we need is to be fighting for scraps with another team! Yes, we would get two good gate reciepts twice a season, but i fear the overall drop in revenue should county also make it to the spl would be greater!

I don't misunderstand you. This is the catering company's fault, not ICT's. I have no evidence that they doing this "on the cheap" and with all due respect, neither do you. Your monkey comment and caps are just plain childish - if you want to contribute to a debate fine, but debate that ain't. I think the fact that our Highland League neighbours can out do (or did previously) an SPL club on the quality of fare on offer is a strong indication that ICT are cutting corners with the catering. I was watching The Hairy Bikers the other week there...and they were at a football clubs who use local traders for their catering. Many were similar sized clubs to ICT and they all had top quality nosh on offer...from LOCAL businesses.

Oh Tree...you misunderstood me....when i refer to paying Peanuts, i refer to ICT MOST LIKELY doing it on the cheap with the choice of caterers, and the monkeys are those running the show.

Ah...the age old catering issue raises its ugly head again. The old Saying..."you pay peanuts, you can expect to get monkeys" springs to mind

What do you want a Celidh band for? Go for a good local band called Rant....they ply stuff like Red Hot Chilli Peppers and The Clash and stuff like that :)

Id imagine Ross Co would have to have at least 6500 seats elsewhere in the stadium IF they didnt want to change the jail end from standing

I was wondering this myself. Id have thought it would be several quid cheaper to stand than have a seat. Im kinda hoping this would be the case...as i might be able to afford to go to some games a bit more if it was the case

I wonder how mmuch they would charge to stand in terracing. SURELY it should be at least ?5-6 cheaper than sitting?

Thanx Don, not sure what was going on...but it works now

I got to thinking about one of my pointless questions. But, i was just interested to see where you think ICTs natural level is. Do you think we are pucnching above our weight...and are most at home in Div One, or are we underacheivers who Should be Top 6 regularly. Where do you see ICTs overall position in Scottishffotball. Personally. I think we SHOULD be viewed as an SPL team...but i see us probably as a bottom 4 SPL team

One swallow, a summer does not make! Its Rangers we were playing. We ALWAYS lift our game against the OF. It is by no means a yardstick with which to judge the team. They need to treat EVERY team as though it is the OF they are playing.

Ive gone to change my site avatar and it wont change at all....i have tried changing the pic a few times...it stayed the same...tried deleting it it stayed the same pic as before, i tried logging out and back in, still wont change. Any ideas?
