  1. I find this whole situation very worrying. This to me smells of desperation and a current crisis financially. This is like trying to put a plaster on the situation here and now whilst at the same time giving yourself 15% less money which seems crazy. A club with no money that can afford to get 15% less from sponsors. There is so much focus from the club on the battery farm and with it seems much confidence that it will get the go ahead down the line. I think until they know 100% that the battery farm will go ahead then it needs to be forgot about and not factored into our clubs future. Its a very sad situation we find ourselves in and the outcome of this crisis might just be every fans fear unfortunately.

  2. Sean Welsh has been a great asset and player for this team. However he is 34 in 2 months time and has really struggled with injuries. I think the time has come to find his replacement sadly. We need to put faith in Duncan to find us a player of decent quality to replace him with. I wish Sean well if he does go and I thank him for the hard work he has put in over the seasons.

  3. Does anyone know when his contract is up ?. He has had plenty time to make improvement's etc at the club but sadly we seem to have fallen apart more than ever with him in charge. I can't see how he can maintain his position beyond the end of this season at the latest. Time for fresh ideas and a fresh start.

  4. This season is now a write off. There is no way the club can go into a new season under the current regime.  This club needs an urgent clean out and rethink. From Scot Gardiner down needs to be shown the door. They have had long enough to turn things around and the only turning we have managed is a complete freefall. Who do people see as the team to turn the fortunes of this club around and actually make football enjoyable to watch again in Inverness ?. In team I mean manager, coaches and someone at the helm of the club itself that can steer the club in the right direction.

  5. I have listened to the post match comments from Billy Dodds. One comment I just cant get my head round is, They, as expected had loads of possession. Queens Park are having a decent season I understand that. Its a Scottish cup game at home against a team in the same league and we are expecting them to have loads of possession. That sums up the shambles we are in at the moment. I really wonder what is getting said to the players before and after games. We have totally lost our identity since we got relegated. This is just not the Caley Thistle I have watched for many years and I fear those days might not return. It is sad to see the way the club is now especially on the playing field and I am not for one minute blaming on the players. A complete change of direction is needed in the summer and we have to put a strong foundation in place to try and build on.

  6. The time has come for a total clear out. Its not just Dodds that needs to go.  It is quite clear things are just not working and we are in freefall down the league. Rumours floating about that we are on the brink of administration is really worrying.

  7. Dont know much about this player but he once was held in high regard. Islam Feruz was released by Chelsea back in January. An ex Celtic youth who turned down a Celtic contract to sign up with Chelsea. He has represented Scotland at various youth levels from under 16 up to under 21. Might be worth a look to see if we can ignite the promise he once had.  He is still only 23

  8. Grim, Woeful, Disjointed and the list could go on and on. The fast decline of this club is so worrying.  For a long time now with yesterday confirming what i have said for months. No pace just nothing, No out ball,  No width, No urgency, No one willing to take a man on. No movement.  I have never seen things so bad at this club.  I am now going to leave myself open for criticism but i genuinely can see Peterhead knocking us out of the cup on Saturday.   

  9. One thing that has stood out for me both this season and last season is we are so slow all over the park.  No one  seems to be confident to take a man on with a back pass most of the time preferred. There is so little movement or runs  of players to open options up for whoever has the ball.  Going back to my opening the pace we play our football is far to slow. When we go a goal behind you expect a reaction and the tempo and attacking to move through the gears but just nothing happens. That is the stand out thing i have noticed for months now.   

  10. Very worrying times lies ahead i fear. Forget promotion its just not going to happen. If we can finish away from relegation at this moment i would grab it with both hands. The saddest thing for me is only going back 2 or 3 seasons we had a great team with some great players. Now we have the poorest team Caley Thistle has had for i don,t know how many seasons.  A rebuild of the squad has just been done at the club and without a doubt another one is required asap, Well at the end of the season. I think now is the time to start looking for the right players to get this club moving in the right direction again. Have a list ready for the end of the season. Sadly having a good think i honestly cant see many of the current squad i would be confident in taking the club forward again. Sad times and even worse the club has been allowed to go into free fall. The last 12 months is the worse i have seen since the club was founded.

  11. Looking at the comments over the last couple of days it seems Richie is still getting paid by the club. Sadly Richie as manager never worked out and i for one was glad when he was removed from his position. His removal however was left far too late and in my opinion this should have happened after the heavy defeat away to Hamilton.  There is talk that Richie will get paid for the length of his contract which i think would still have 3 years or so remaining.  This is purely rumour and not fact. If this is the case then surely the club would be better having Richie working in some capacity within the club. His management might have been a failure but i for one still think he could offer a lot to the club and the players. 

  12. I phoned the club to reserve my seat for Saturdays game. I was told i would have to use voucher in season ticket book. I said that is fine and was then told that i would have to give them voucher before i can get ticket. I again said ok i just want to reserve seat. Was then told no you cant reserve your seat without presenting the voucher so i explained i did not live near Inverness and i could not give them voucher. As i am not in Inverness before Saturday now i cant reserve my seat and have been told it might sell before i can get in and i might have to sit in another part of the stadium.  

  13. Just had a look at Falkirks website and their season ticket prices etc. One thing that stands out for me if i am seeing it correctly is under 12s are free in all parts of the stadium.  Only restriction is max of 4 kids per paying adult. A great way to bring youngsters into the game
