    Tommy Cumming - RIP

    in Caley Thistle

    Posted

    tommycumming.jpgJust read on courier website that groundsman extraordinaire Tommy Cumming has passed away. Very sad news.

    A definite character who kept our pitch in perfect condition for years. Had many interesting conversations with him over the years. (just dont mention undersoil heating!!!) . I have one specific memory of him being very nice to my son when he first visited the stadium ... giving him permission to ignore the 'keep off the grass' sign and walking with him on the pitch, then giving me a row when i followed ... my son loved it and I knew he was on the wind-up (i think). 

    Team will wear black armbands this weekend and observe a minute of applause. Definitely merited for the huge contribution he made to our club. Condolences to his loved ones. RIP Tommy, you will be missed.

    Site errors

    in Technical Support

    Posted

    unfortunately, nothing I can do to fix it.

    Seems to be ad related (possibly due to browser settings, browser extensions, or other security software designed to block ads) and only happens for certain people (not everyone). The 'error' is not a server-side issue that I can troubleshoot and fix, and it is also not logged as a software error in the software logs.  Unless someone wants to finance the site to pay our running costs, I simply can't get rid of the ads. When enabled I have little to no control over what the ads are for as they are contextual to the end user. The only thing I can do is block all ads of a certain type - like we did with the 'vignette' ads that everyone complained about but again, blocking each type of ad has a financial impact (about 25% in the case of the vignette ones).  Its a balancing act on my end.

    One club with three histories

    Who was to know the pyramid would open up and allow teams to reach their true level though, at that time it wasn’t really believable. 

    Possibly a controversial opinion but IMHO: (Caley + Thistle) > Caley or Thistle in terms of the progress the combined teams have achieved in the last 29 years.

    • Non-League to premiership in 10 seasons
    • Scottish Cup winners in 20 seasons
    • Into Europe by our 21st birthday. 

    If we had been able to go it alone then I believe both Caley and Thistle would have progressed, but County (had they got in) would have eclipsed us thanks to the financial help from Uncle Roy. It has taken the combined efforts of football people from both parent clubs, as well as sponsorship and governance from business and benefactors of both. Had both clubs gone it alone then that would have been fragmented, the stadium would not have happened, and the central belters would have found a(nother) reason to keep us out, or at best, down in the lower leagues which might have been the natural level for either or both. 

    Together we are stronger, have forged our own new history as a combined club, alongside the history - not to be forgotten - of the parent clubs that pre-dated ICT. I say that as a Caley man who lived in Dalneigh and would go to Telford Street on a semi-regular basis, work and money permitting.

    Told me they weren't getting any more strips in (Presumably this season) as it was bespoke made or something. 

    Good luck. 

    They really should use the term "limited run" rather than bespoke. A football top does not fit the definition of 'bespoke'. The trend is to use that word nowadays to imply exclusivity or artisan crafts and that doesn't fit here!
