    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!

    The castle is surrounded with scaffolding just now and is due to open next year.  I am not sure how the end product will look and exactly what is going to be in it but have been told it's a fixed budget to do the work so we will have to wait and see what they come up with.

    They seem to have done a good job with the town house so fingers crossed the removal of scaffolding will show some good work.

    Agree with the road and the UHI comments but for me the biggest improvement was opening up the castle viewpoint. When you can get a view like this, its amazing to see how beautiful the locale is. 

    I really hope that with the courts gone they take the opportunity to double-down on the improvements made to the Town House to create an area that is appealing to tourists and locals alike with the Castle, Town House, Museum and perhaps some green space if they ever tear down Upper Bridge St. It would be amazing.

    RIP Eric

    I did not know Eric, but ever since TM4TJ brought him and IBM on to help with the stats and other background tasks, it has been great. His input and effort getting us up to date, was immense even though he was unwell. It speaks volumes about someone's character when they offer to do this type of unsung work and are happy to stay in the background and just offer assistance without any fanfare. I am also absolutely blown away that in the midst of his illness, he was still thinking of doing updates from the hospice. 

    My sincere gratitude goes to Eric for all he did, and my condolences go out to his family and friends in their sad loss. 🙏
