Team For Kilmarnock
Personally, I think dropping Munro at this stage would be suicidal, I know he may no' be playing 100% just now but Granty is one of those types who you don't drop.

Potential Strikers
In fairness Craig Bryson has been excellent this season

Up Front ?
Rooney is, in my opinion , our best striker. I think, for Saturday, I'd partner him with Foran. It would be tremendous if Butcher could develop a successful partnership up front at this vital time. I've said often before on these pages that I can't understand why Rooney doesn't get a regular start, I really thought Butcher's arrival would change things. It may be that Morais would be a better option than Foran but I'd like to see us use Morais' pace on the right flank. Foran is more liable to be able to look after himself up front.

Ian Black
Had the guy been, as you say "away" then we may well not have had our night on Wednesday ! Whilst ICT have made Black what he is, it's fair to say Black is one of the guy's who has made ICT what they are. Abuse him when he comes back if you want, but the vast majority of us will applaud him.

From A Different Perspecive
I was in the same position as you Bronson, sitting in thr Broomloan Stand amoungst "The bears" with my son. Although I should be the more mature one it was he who was desperately trying to keep me from blowing my cover ! When Rooney got his foot to a cross and blasted it just over I jumped off my seat, then gradually realised everyone in the near vicinity was staring at me My boy (12) then joined the huns in a chorus of "we arra peepil" in a bold attempt to cover me :thumb04: Regarding your thoughts on player performances Bronson, I think your being extremely harsh. The players played above their level, a fantastic effort. There is no way a team of Inverness' stature with the quality of player we can afford could possibly go to Ibrox (no matter how poorly Rangers play) and come away with a victory having not played collectivily very well .

Rangers -v- Ict : Matchnight Thread
I was there CMIB and honestly they were all fantastic, they ran their hearts out, closed everything down. Not pretty but, hey, there's no way where going to outplay them at their place. Ryan Esson was flawless, punchin when he had to. I could go through all the players but I'd just be saying the same thing....brilliant ! A couple of weeks ago I honestly had my doubts, but after watching that tonight, there is no way on this earth that that team will go down !!!!
-
Congratulations!
WOW !!!!! What a stunning victory, made all the better by our sheer desperation for points. Wasn't Ryan Esson brilliant, in fact everyman was genuinly superb, a really brilliant effort. My only regret is not being amoungst our fans, I was in with the Rangers fans, and quiet frankly it was torture ! Now I'm away to pour myself an extremely large Grouse. Altogether now..

Gers Wednesday
I'm going to manage to get to Ibrox tomorrow with my son and a couple of friends. Unfortunately, and I hate doing this, I'll be amoungst Rangers fans. Late notice so I'll have to buy a ticket at the ground. So I'll have to do the same as Caleylass did a couple of years ago and try and restrain myself when we score the winner ! COME ON THE CALEY JAGS !

When Will We Get Our Own Identity?
Sorry Birdog, should have said premier representitives

When Will We Get Our Own Identity?
I think there something in this Joe. ICT could and should play on the fact that they represent the Highlands of Scotland.

All-time Highlanders XI
Aye Kingsmills, Ted MacDougal, good shout ! Probably Scottish footballs most succesful Highlander. I remember him scoring in the Home Internationals v N. Ireland on the Wednesday night before the disaterous 5-1 game at Wembley in '75. I'm 99% sure he played in that game too. Also scored against Denmark in the European Championships at Hampden.
-
All-time Highlanders XI
I don't think Eric Black (Glasgow) or Steven Pressley (Elgin) could be considered Highland. I don't think the Highland line takes in Elgin and Black may have Highland connections but pretty sure he was born in Glasgow. Stewart Houston Man u & Scotland was born in Argyll though
-
Highlanders Or Mercenaries?
Agree Buckett. As well as all you say, I think it benefits the club to have as many local(ish) boys whom are really playing for the jersey as well as their living.
-
Don Cowie
Totally agree. In this day and age I think this a tremendous bit of business. I like the player but goin by this seasons form there is no chance that his departure could be the difference between going down & staying up

Odhiambo
So why does he put Tel at the end of his txts ? When he texts me he signs off Big Tel! Terry Butcher and Diego Maradona keep it tame Nov 20 2008 YOU put your left hand in and you shake it all about, you do the hokey-cokey and you score a goal, that's what it's all about, ohhh Diego Maradona! Big Gerry who works down the JobCentre told me to kick off like this. He's a colonel in the Tartan Army and according to him it's the footsoldiers' version of the Hokey-Cokey. As a fully paid up member of the" Tartan Army" I can confirm the song goes :- You put your left hand in, Your left hand out, In out in out and shake it all about, You do the Maradona and you score a goal, He put the English OUT OUT OUT. Oh Diego Maradona.....etc There are a few other verses involving other names, like Thomas Brolin.

Brian Kerr signs
Aye it's no' everyday Inverness sign a Scotland international ! Good news indeed ! Kerr looked good at Livingston and Motherwell but seemed, for some reason to lose his way latterly at Hibs. Potentialy another very good signing.
-
Mihadjuks
You're bang on CaleyD. Above all else, our financial state is of paramount importance, and anyhow, as regards Mihadjuks, it's a two way thing, he's got to make sure he settles into life in Inverness, before he commits long term. Having said that, in the case of Mihadjuks, now that weve seen him, it would be nice to get him on a longer deal soon, before the O.F. come sniffin around.
-
Who will be the 3 candidates?
Oh well, not my choice(if it is indeed Butcher) but I'll get behind the set-up.
-
Chris Sutton
Does anyone know if Sutton has officially retired? I know he had injury problems at Villa but I'm wondering if he's still able to play. If he were to become a part of our management team be it boss or assistant, he could, like Brewster was, be a very good signing. The experienced forward we crave ! Incidently I apologise if this has already been talked about, I haven't had time to trawl through all the posts.

Countdown Mark 2
Yep, I think it was Pat Nevin yesterday who was saying similar. Why why why, let him (C.B.) bring in FOUR players in the window and then relieve him of his duties. It's actually incredibly obvious but truly bizarre timing. Not at all fair on the new guy
-
Who's Your Candidate?
I'd like to register my support for Robbo. My gut feeling is that Ardiles could be disaterous. Butcher ? na, I just can't manage to like the guy.

New manager thread (merged)
Sounds like you know something..or is it an educated guess ?
-
Time now to draw a line.
Aye, that's a good post Alex. Although I never really joined in the "Brewster out" campaign, I must admit I'm glad that the whole thing is over now, it was painful. Perhaps he had "lost the dressing room" I don't know. We certainly did have good days under his leadership, but in football nowadays it's very much The King Is Dead Long Live The King.
