  1. Off to Stevenage on 3 year deal.
  2. My father, a season ticket holder since 94 and at Caley before that, has just told me this will be his last! How many more are there like him?
  3. David Davis is returning to Wolves, It was his decision.
  4. I am sorry, the buck stops with the manager. He is a clever operator who has many of the fans and the media eating out of his hand. But the table or the goals against record does not lie. We have a management team who were international defenders, but we could not keep a clean sheet against 11 traffic cones! I will continue to back them and the team, but lets cut out the nonsense and stop thinking we are in a false position. At the moment we "talk" a great game, sadly the manager or the players don't back it up.
  5. French left back joins on 1 year deal after being released from Barnet.

  7. It's disappointing ICT don't seem to want to embrace the idea of web highlights, for what ever reason. Even more frustrating as people have offered their time and expertise. The idea of involving the media course at Inverness college seems to be a very good one, beneficial to both parties. As I have said on a previous thread I feel the SFL need to examine the use of the web to increase exposure of their product. Tv companies are not going to show the SFL, the budgets are not there. But with co-operation from the member clubs a web based goals round-up is a possibility. It could be produced at a fraction of tv costs and could add a valuable revenue stream.
  8. On the evidence of the season so far we will be involved in a relegation scrap. I still burst out laughing at the managment, players, fans and media, who not only talk about us being promoted, but being one of the favourites! Have a look at the table, it says it all and has done for weeks. We are simply NOT good enough.
  9. I wasn't there, but I am told by those who were he was very poor. However booing individual players from your own team is completely destructive. Fans have every right to be frustrated at by all accounts was a terrible team performance, but picking out individual payers, booing them during the game and as they are taken off ! something I have never done or ever will do.
  10. The club should be looking at putting match highlights on the web, it increases profile and could act as another revenue stream. I am afriad fans who don't make it to most games are in for a stark reality check on media coverage, NO SFL highlights package has been agreed with the broadcasters (STV BBC) the odd live match will be on BBC ALBA as last year. It's just not cost effective for the tv companies to show an SFL highlights package , so it's up to the clubs and the SFL to find other ways to get their product out there, surely every club should have match highlights on the net? The league could then look at establishing a highlights package exclusively for the net, at a fraction of the cost of a tv production? Just a thought!
  11. Earlier this week, as someone who has given up one of his two season tickets, the club sent me a christmas card and a letter asking me to buy a half season ticket ! If it wasn't so sad it would be funny! I feel I would have a claim under the trades description act. My admiration goes to all those who are still attending TCS, you deserve so much better.
  12. As has been said there is no room for sentiment in football, but I can't help feeling this is yet another blunder! The fabric of the club is being ripped apart, we seem to be stumbling around with no plan or direction. Never mind I am sure freeing up Barry Wilson's wages will alow us to get Ritchie Byrne!!!!!!!
  13. We can't see a game out, and never look like keeping a clean sheet! I laugh when other teams say in the media Inverness is a difficult place to play! 5 league wins in 10 months would suggest If I was opposition manager I couldn't wait for the next trip up the A9
  14. Very weak defence, and the most inexperienced forward line in the SPL, We were always going to struggle this season Will we have any money to change things in the Jan window AND would you trust our Manager with the cash ?
  15. Superb result this afternoon Every player did their bit, but I thought Munro, Imrie and Black were outstanding! Barrowman looks like the poacher we hoped he was, BUT we still need to strengthen up front and at the back. Get the cheque book out before the end of the window and we can all look forward to the season.
  16. I simply can't believe any "deal" with Marius was only verbal. If it was, then words fail me. But yet again ICT are made to look like a shambles I am afraid from the outside it looks like many of our activities off the field are strictly Highland League never mind SPL.
  17. First game was at Telford Street in the late 70 's Caley v Nairn, for some reason it was a lunchtime kick off ! Stood in the Howden End and had a sausage roll from the shop, I was hooked on both after that.
  18. It's up to him what he makes of the move. He was once one of the "big earners" at Pittodrie after getting a "silly" deal in the days of Ebbe Skovdhal. But his career has stalled badly and now he has to show what he's worth. But unless there is big turnaround on both sides he will be a ICT player by tomorrow.
  19. Tell me if I am wrong ? but when Marius was presented to the media, it was David Sutherland who was at his side talking of the signing taking us to the next level. it's just one sorry episode after another at the moment, and I am afraid we are a laughing stock AGAIN !
  20. Nothing wrong with a few memories, some of the happiest times I have had watching football was while standing in the Howden End. Talk to any manager or player from the Highland League days pre 93 and they will mention what it was like facing a Caley team in full flow shooting into the Howden end in the second half. I miss those days and nights at Telford street, it was my football education. But times move on, and now I worry about getting a result against Dundee United, Aberdeen, Hearts rather than Elgin City , Keith or Brora!
  21. For me one of the main problems at the moment is the lack of pace ALL over the pitch, We are so ponderous at times it is absolutely frightening!
  22. it's back to the start of the season defenders who can't defend and a "shot shy" forward line. game over after 5 mins !
  23. Like so many games this season, a complete shambles! Don't care how bad the refs been, YET Another team come away with a victory without having to work for it We are now adding needless sending offs, to needless penalties, laughable defending and comical goalkeeping, why don't we just give teams a couple of goals at the start of the game and be done with it. Thank god I wasn't there, not sure many others will be at at the St Mirren game either
  24. At the moment Marius reminds me of Bingham, but without the goals ! ( a crucial difference) It's obvious he is a talented player, I think he just needs one in the SPL and he can kick on. Not sure he was ever going to be a 20 goal a season man, but the bottom line is when you play up front and don't hit the net your going to get criticised.
