Im not sure where you getting your distance from, but inverness to Glasgow is about 170 miles, Kilmarnock must be another 25-30 miles past that As the crow flies I assume - u got the point though I guess ;-)

Damn that 'Club 12' - we are back in the bottom six and the season has not even started.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/scottish-premier/table

Suppose if its on there it must be true. I cant even figure out what that site is about let alone the possibility that it would have info that nobody else has. Its even worse than football rumours. i wondered if anyone else had gone on there and thought WTF I actually thought it was a County site going by the content of most of the articles in the news section.... ....or of a similiar ilk to the old 'Inversnecky' site

It is on here that he is in discussions with County (rumour, rumour....) - but more importantly look at that Partick Thistle kit....see it could be worse.... http://thetannerba.com/2012/06/19/tomorrow-could-be-interesting/#more-1585 http://thetannerba.com/2012/06/19/the-2012-2013-partick-thistle-f-c-away-kit-isnt-that-something/

Meester Shiels - none of that 'sucking diesel' for you then this morning Let the train take the strain.... PS - Kilmarnock to Wrexham - 190 miles - Kilmarnock to Inverness - 134 miles - there is no need to go to Wrexham - a match against Lancaster City should sufffice (128 miles) - just think what you will save on fuel for your 'poor' club

Looks like it is a 3pm ko on Saturday 21st July....with Coventry also playing a game against Ross County at Clach Park on the 18th July http://www.coventryt...92746-31221759/

Scotty - is it one win in eleven so far but three players arrested outside pub in Houston on Monday evening - it wasn't an Irish one per chance - interesting season for TFC so far....

So Coventry City it is then at TCS - anybody remember that brown and pink away strip they once had. Every time I think of it Ian Wallace and Ginger Perm seems to spring to mind ;-)

He's the lad that played in last years trial isn't he with Andrew Shinnie - when is the 22 trial this year or has it already happened?

ICT v Club #12 ;-)

Eureka.... :-)

Combining the SPL and SFL is a good start - now where might this be going?

Gary Glen has joined Ross County after being released by Hearts - was he not one of our targets at one stage?

I believe sky will be showing Scottish football next year with or without rangers but even if they are able to get out of their contract somebody else will take it up as there is still a product to be sold. What would be the general response to the sky group if they did pull the plug on Scottish football as other countries/regional broadcasters have contracts with sky that are still active. How will Uefa view sky's involvement if this is actually a real story. People in Scotland cancelling sky packages at a time when money is tight is only to do with whether Rangers are in the SPL or not - I don't think so.

Has he been reading some of these posts.... http://www.gazetteseries.co.uk/sport/9761150.Football__Warren_is_looking_to_impress_in_Scotland/ Summer signing #1 on a one year deal - as the club has stated hopefully a few more in the next few days....

From the SPL web-site: SPL summer signings Signings made by SPL clubs so far this summer Aberdeen Celtic Dundee United Michael Gardyne - forward (Ross County) Mark Millar - midfielder (Falkirk) Brian McLean - defender (Preston) Radoslaw Cierzniak - goalkeeper (Alki Larnaca) Hearts Hibernian Inverness CT Gary Warren - defender (Newport County) Kilmarnock Motherwell Rangers Ross County Ross Tokely - defender (Inverness CT) St Johnstone Tam Scobbie - defender (Falkirk) Gary Miller - defender (Ross County) St Mirren Jon Robertson (midfielder) - Cowdenbeath Sam Parkin (forward) - Queen of the South Lewis Guy (forward) - MK Dons

I notice that the SPL U-19 exit trials for players who have not had their contracts renewed are taking place in Glasgow on the 27th June. http://www.scotprem.com/content/default.asp?page=s2&newsid=11434 Will this be another potential source of new squad players?

What's all this alledgedly from sky about one season without Rangers would be ok. Are the first seeds being planted to try and force the SFL to accept them into Division 1 with Dundee taking the step up?

Now Hearts are allegedly in the frame but Broonie is still convinced that Hayes will be joining them when his ICT contract expires at the end of June.

Would not be surprised if he ended up in the North East (England)....

Bump.... 1-1 at present....

Just out of curiosity what is the rough estimate for a minor stand structure incorporated into the current ground footprint along that side of the stadium?
