No it isn't. ICT are the only professional senior football team in Inverness so if the good people of Inverness, if they want to save their team, then they do need to get off their arses to support ICT. Even in the Championship, Dunfermline, and now Falkirk get much bigger attendances than us and both these clubs have had similar problems to us. Why should that be the case?, cue the usual comments on poor this and poor that. You either support your team or you don't. To late to support your team once it's gone. We seem to have a large element of "support " who are never satisfied with the club and always have an excuse for not attending games.

Comfortable win in the end not helped by a dreadful referee who denied uz 2, probably 3 stonewall penalties similar to the Stenhousemuir fame. We're certainly not getting any breaks from the referees just now. Players gave their all today, just a huge pity more of our so called fans couldn't be bothered to get off their arses to comexabd support the club.

While understandable fans want answers to many questions over what has gone on, surely the focus, for the foreseeable future has to be how the club comes out of this. I couldn't get a ticket for the meeting bit saw the list of questions from the supporters trust. If they thought they could all be discussed and answered last night, they were on another planet. Yes, the questions need answering and the board should be given time to deal with this. As I have said though, that cannot be the priority right now, saving the club is. As for Messrs Bennett and Fyfe being directors, they need cleared out, especially Mr Fyfe as he has done nothing for the club as far as I can see. As for us fans, we really do need to turn up in far greater numbers than wr have been and buy merchandise to support the club financially. You Hever know the merchandise may become a collectors item

I fear the club has made a grave error here if Gardiner's contract was watertight. They must have known that, if it was, we would have to pay what was remaining on his contract. It would have been far better, perhaps even easier if they had gone down the disciplinary route and sacked him that way thus avoiding paying compensation. Whatever happens, the club and supporters must now do everything to destroy Gardiner's reputation, within the law of course. I'll start by calling him a corrupt, devious and dishonest b*****d.

That's the spirit eh, don't support your team when they really need you. Ownership of the club, board membership will be sorted out one way or another but do many of our "fans" actually want the club to survive. Will you be one of the fans watching from the bridge again?. I really do wonder if many fans care whether we survive or not but as long as "they" win the argument and get the board and CEO out, club fail to find a new owner thst they like, they will be happy as they have won.

So sad. I knew Johndo from the old Academy days, he was in the year above. I too remember the mock election Johndo won, his theme tune being Alice Coopers I want to be elected. Played football with him as well and was certainly led astray on school football trips abroad as well as in this country. Hadn't seen him for a few years but he still was a great character. RIP my friend and condolences to your family.

Good "team" performance today with everyone playing their part. 3 good goals and it should have been more bar the woodwork and a couple of poor passes from Billy in the second half. Encouraging performance played at pace at times and no little skill by the team.Shame so many fans have spat their dummy out and won't go to watch and support the team. So many posters on here saying they won't buy tickets, attend games while the board are still in place, Fergusons comments blah blah blah. Would you rather the club went bust. I think the fans have probably achieved as much as they can, scrapping Kelty move, chairman and CEO resigning so now is the time to get behind the team and give them your support by attending games. Fully expect a big pile on now from the usual suspects telling me I'm talking nonsense but don't worry, I won't be reading or responding to any replies and comments. All I'll say is be careful what you wish for.

While I fet that many fans are reluctant to renew season tickets, bottom line is the club needs money to survive. If fans choose ge pay at gate option, many will not attend every game if that happens thus depriving the club of revenue. Difficult as it may be, fans at some point are going to have to trust the club and put their money where their mouth is. While administration may solve many problems, it is not without risk and costs.

Perhaps to make sure they got the appeal correct?. Doesn't alter the timescale fir hearing any appeal as assume the planning authorities would have to wait until the timescale for appeals had lapsed.

Unless you know this for a fact, stupid pointless comment. There are too many snide comments like this being made on here without any substance behind them. Even if directors were going to Germany, this would have to have been planned months ago before all this happened.

My thoughts are similar but, on the other hand, if we don't get some cash into the club, it might go into administration anyway. Will take the weekend to think about this, buy a lottery ticket and If Scotland win, will seriously consider renewing my season ticket!

I think there needs to be some realism here. The fans have demanded, and got what they wanted. Gardiner is leaving and some are unhappy that he is working his notice. Well he either works his notice or we pay him off so either way it's a cost. As I said in another post, fans now need to start putting there money where their mouth is, in buying season tickets etc. Club need to get these season tickets on sale ASAP to generate some revenue. Some fans won't of course until everything is resolved to their satisfaction but by then it maybe too late. I also have a nagging doubt that all the anger generated by fans over the issues will actually be transferred into revenue for the club.

Well the fans have got what they wanted, the removal of Mr Gardiner excepted. As such, we, the fans need to now put our money where our mouth is and buy our season tickets/merchandise etc. In return though, the board need to get someone from the Supporters Trust on the board to demonstrate they will listen to fans at long last. To reiterate however, fans need to back the club with the same passion they displayed over the Kelty move and also financially.

Therein lies the problem. He is an absentee chairman who has let Gardiner dictate things. No-one will step forward to replace him while Gardiner is there so the chairman has one simple task, sack Gardiner and maybe someone will take over. This would also get some fans back onside.

Wouldn't be surprised. Young players were already told to train on their own, away from first team, by Ferguson. They were therefore becoming very disillusioned. As for this ridiculous proposal, well I'm afraid that's me done with the club. I was at the first league game in 1994 and a season ticket holder for over 20 years. I cannot realistically renew my season ticket after this.

Make no mistake, Hamilton are there for the taking but only if Ferguson picks the correct team. As people have already said, People and Lawal have to start and Longstaff needs to be dropped as he is offering nothing. Not convinced that Macgregor is the saviour some posters think (they're going on past reputation imo) but if things not going to plan, he needs to ge brought on earlier than he has been. If Austin Samuel's is fit, I would be tempted to throw him on later in the game as he has real pace which we lack. We also need to go at Hamilton from the off and put them under pressure as I think they will struggle. Their pitch certainly helped them last night as it was awful.

What's the issue here. As a season ticket holder, I'm happy to pay for the play off games. I certainly had no expectation that it would be included in my season ticket. I guess the club have got it wrong in terms of what they stated but given we need as much revenue as we can, so you need to pay. As an aside, interesting to note from the Courier article how the Championship have been stitched up by the Premier league.

I think the criticism of Ferguson is way over the top and, realistically, the club cannot afford to pay him off. Without doubt he has made mistakes but he is learning his trade and his lack of knowledge of football at this level didn't help. There gave been signs in the last few games that he was starting to make things work. Don't forget the mess that Dodds left with no real strikers apart from Billy, who let's face it, isn't as sharp as he once was. I think we will win through the play offs and if we do, the hard work will start to get a team together next season. Don't forget, some posters on here would have been happy with Imrie as manager.

Yet again absolute joke of a linesman and referee have cost us. Referee and standside linseman are simply not up to standard. Will we ever get a decision as it also looked like we could have had a penalty at the end of the first half yet inexplicably the ref gives a foul to Morton.

We haven't played like this for at least the last 6 games. Players will go for it I'm sure, just need that bit of luck that was missing against Raith. I do genuinely think we are playing better recently but it's taken far too long for that to happen. Need desperately to get the first goal tonight.

What exactly will a boycott if spending with the club achieve. It could seriously damage the already poor financial position of the club. If it succeeds in removing the CEO and Chairman, then their replacements will inherit a much more difficult situation and so the finances worsen even more. The club needs investment for sure but how we get that I don't know. Greater fan investment similar to what happens at Hearts would be great but, being realistic, cannot see the numbers adding up for ICT. Maybe there is a simpler solution to all this and simply more of our fans could actually turn up for games instead of endlessly moaning.

Deserved win in terrible conditions at times. Thought we played at a better tempo today and created a lot of chances. Arbroath were poor but some of our interplay was really good and sharp. Samuel fully deserving of MOM but was kicked and held the whole game with no protection from the ref. Officiating was really poor again, do we actually train referees any more or are they just allowed to make up their own decisions.

Not the same thing at all. I don't park at the stadium because I think £5 is ridiculous and also getting out of the casr park can be time consuming. It's also easier for me to get home by parking in the Longman. Happy to give the club money buying food, merchandise etc but draw the line at paying £90 minimum a season for parking.

Totally agree. It's the same with not keeping at least one man up the park when the opposition had a corner. All that does is that if we clear the ball, it's going to come right back into us and also invites more opposition players into our box. Basic basic tactics that Ferguson needs to see and change.

We are not quite as one dimensional dimensional as stated. There have been signs in the last 2 games of what we are trying to do but the problems are further further up thee field as little or no support for Billy or McAllister today. Anderson tries and does well but Gilmour Gilmour sits far to deep at times. As for Shaw, what has happened to him?. He has been dreadful yet never seems to be subbed. Definitely missed Samuel today and that might have made a difference. Must win game coming up next week so Ferguson needs to start earning his money and stop the baffling substitions.
