Had similar thoughts as well. I haven't renewed this year for the first time in at least 20 years (probably longer) and got nothing from the club. The year Rangers were going to be punted after being liquidated someone from the club phoned to see why I hadn't renewed but nothing this year. In fairness, a call wouldn't have changed my mind. I'm not renewing due to a new addition to the family but it did leave me feeling a little undervalued as a loyal fan for many years.

Obviously depends on the ground, form, transport links etc. but normally there will be anywhere between around 100 fans up to a couple / few hundred. A lot of ICT fans will end up in the central belt after leaving the Highlands for jobs or tertiary education so for a game against the likes of Partick Thistle we might take a pretty good crowd along. I think there's definitely been an increase in our away support over the last few seasons. More of the Young Team head to away games now I think (possibly for the reasons above) which is good to see.
-
They have also won something like 6 games since January. Make no bones about it, League Cup Group Stage / friendly (call it what you will), last nights result was exceptionally poor.
-
£330 for the North Stand? Ooooft. That seems higher than it was in our Premiership days. Obviously costs have gone up but that's a sore one for fans who missed the early renewal deadline.
-
As @Satan says maybe it'll look different in the flesh but for, based on the photos, it's an absolutely atrocious kit. I'll give the club the benefit of the doubt and say that releasing it yesterday was merely a coincidence but I have my doubts.
-
From what I've been told it was on and it wasn't contingent on anything happening with Mckay.
-
Fairly certain the Lafferty deal is off.
-
Club seem to be hinting that Billy Mckay will be signing an contract extension.
-
So one guy (Ofere) from the last decade based on a very small sample size of around 10 games? Not exactly much to write home about. Certainly doesn't give me any confidence that we can pick up a goal scorer late in the day especially with the paltry wages we are likely offering these days.
-
Like who exactly? Billy Mckay is our most prolific goal scorer in recent memory and no one has scored more than he did last season than since, erm, Bill Mckay in 2013/14. Jordan White was close in 2017/18 (IIRC) but apart from that we have lacked an out and out goalscorer for the best part of a decade.
-
He's not been mentioned at all recently either in terms of players who have been released or players who were offered new deals. Apparently an Ayr fan has said he was serving ice creams at a local fun day down that neck of the woods. Probably a good indicator of where he's at right now.
-
These guys haven't left Partick Thistle to hang around in the Championship for another season (unless it's to sign for a big player which we certainly aren't). Turner is more of an 8 than Allardice anyway. Docherty would have been a good replacement but he also left Thistle and has signed for United.
-
Confirmed that Shaw is under contact until 2024. https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/sport/football/inverness-caledonian-thistle/5851333/nathan-shaw-hailed-for-making-potential-count-with-bold-move-north-to-caley-thistle/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social

What the f'ck is going on here?! Hoping this is an end of season reflection type post.
-
That is also true!
-
I do agree with a lot of this but sometimes you have players who are more valuable to the team than any final transfer fee we might get for them. Could we realistically have afforded to lose Allardice last season for the sake of a few thousand pounds? For all the criticism he got from others (including myself) I fully agreed with Yogi's ambitions of trying to at least make sure the club got money when they lost players like Shinnie, Watkins etc. easier said than done of course though.
-
We're not going to be able to afford the development fee they'll be due for him.
-
League Cup group games haven't been included but normally have lower ticket prices. The game against Cove last summer was £10 for adults.
-
Pretty sure he is under contract until 2024.
-
Fans might be a bit more sympathetic to the club if it had done anything but erode trust between the two groups over the last few years.
-
Scott Burns in the record. However, to correct what I've said it's reduced terms his been offered. So wages could be fine but contract length might be an issue.
-
Offering Mckay reduced wages to sign a new deal
-
What the hell are we thinking here releasing players by email?
-
To be honest I don't know but there did seem to be a pattern where the second seed played the first seed away in the last match of the round of fixtures but that didn't happen last season IIRC although we did play Livi away it wasn't the last match of the group. I wouldn't be surprised to see Dundee being one of the away games and knowing our luck it will probably be Airdrie away as well...
