From what I've seen so far this season I am extremely sceptical about this statement.

Could the game on Saturday be at risk? Pitch has been saturated for some time now.

Game off due to a waterlogged pitch.

Great news. I was very sceptical about his signing but he's been fantastic for us especially since the Dumbarton debacle. We could probably cope without Mulraney but not without Donaldson. Humble pie tastes delicious for times like this!

Livi (in)famously don't utilise their USH for games at lower levels by all accounts.

Massively disappointing news. Was looking forward to this game. With the rearranged fixture just a couple of days later means it will be another game I'll miss this season

Pitch inspection this afternoon.

The departures of Eldson and Raven were all but confirmed by JR in the Highland News. http://www.highland-news.co.uk/Sport/Football/John-Robertson-plans-January-swoops-at-Caley-Thistle-06122017.htm

I stand corrected I missed that post from Renegade. Why on earth was someone giving Raven abuse!?

No one was booing Raven at the game on Saturday.

Heard that Coll Donaldson and Brad Mckay are set to guest star in the next series of Geordie Shore.

A quick tally up shows that this is our lowest scoring start to a season (or rather after 15 games) since 2008/09 with just 17 goals scored.

Hopefully you know a few hundred that will be coming along to make up for the shortfall in crowds! An expensive round in the Caley Club awaits

He seems to have completely disappeared off the face of the earth. Is he injured just now? Some rumours going around that we're trying to get him to leave but we can't agree a deal to terminate his contract.

Dull, dull game. Looked like we had a good claim for a penalty in the second half but we created precious little for most of the game in keeping with the last few weeks sadly. Whilst we look much more solid ta the back and won't concede often we are not scoring many goals at all. Bell and Baird are our best combination up front but unless we can try and play balls in behind the last man or over the top for them to chase we see to struggle to create many openings for them. Too often crosses were floated high into the air for them to challenge for rather than fizzing a low ball across the goal. Given that they were dwarfed by the Queens defenders those high balls almost never led to anything. Oakley is a useful option off the bench but I don't see any of these guys getting the goals regularly enough to really fire us towards the top of the table. On the plus side Donaldson and Mckay kept things very tight at the back and Raven along with Tremarco offered decent support down the flanks. Vigurs took a long time to come into the game with a number of slack passes in the first half and a seeming reluctance to rectify his errors by winning the ball back. Supporters bar was really good, very warm and friendly atmosphere. No pies by half time though which was ridiculous and they didn't even have steak pies which should see them docked points

This is exactly the kind of response the club will have been hoping to see from more fans. "Can't blame us at least we tried". Fact is that Raven has been treated pretty shoddily by the club for a long time now and to offer him a contract knowing full well it wasn't even close to what he was looking for is another insult as far as I'm concerned, a piece meal offering. They'd have been as well not offering him anything and just letting him go in January.

It's a resource issue to get the highlights up and whether it's just goals or some more highlights. I'm sure there would be plenty of willing volunteers to help out but no requests for assistance seem to go out.

McAllister has zero interest in going full time. He is quite happy playing part time with Peterhead and doing his plumbing gig. As for Raven it's a very bad move losing him. I know money is a big issue but part of our good form was down to his return to the side and now we are losing him just as we go on a decent wee run. Getting rid of some of the other dross in the squad to keep Raven would be my preference. Sadly though there was no chance he was going to stay and take something like a 50% salary cut. Rumours are he will be off to Dundee United.

Found a bit of time to update this for the last season or two. Quite a worrying drop off in average crowd this season compared to the last time we were in this division. There's obviously a fair bit of the season to go but a drop of 1,000 from our average crowd compared to the last time we were relegated might set some alarm bells ringing financially. Note this is just for league games. Switched the colour schemes around - yellow is Division 3/SFL2, green is Division 2/SFL1, red is Division 1/Championship and blue is SPL/Premiership.

Bumping this as Robbo has said that the club will be losing 2 - 3 players in January. I'd imagine these would be Raven, Eldson and Susan. Hopefully it doesn't include Donaldson as, despite having much the same reaction as Renegade above when he signed, he has shown himself to be a pretty decent defender and I hope he can stay with us a bit longer.

Well no obviously not and that isn't what I've said anyway so I don't know how you've come to that bizarre conclusion.

Well you are unlikely to get an answer to these kinds of questions on here. Certainly not speedily anyway. Go straight to the source and you might have more luck and get an accurate answer rather than someone saying "I heard it was this..."

You could always ask the club? If they do another fans night head along and ask them there or write to the Chairman.

Clearly the SFA think a lot of McKendrick. He's been sent down to League 2 this coming weekend. That said he will somehow act as the 4th official in the Rangers v Aberdeen game tomorrow night. I suspect that geographical reasons rather than ability might be the reason for this.
