  1. Think he would love it even more if we can win the next game ...
  2. Good game. Was worried until the penalty award as Falkirk started well, but after that it turned our way. Daniel MacKay's header was a great one and the third goal from Billy was taken very well. Apart from Ridgers' moment of madness, which he made up for with solid stopping on the few occasions he was called into action, Falkirk didn't look likely to score. Still dont know how the second Shaw attempt that hit the post stayed out. Thought it would hit the inside of the other post and in to make it 0-4 but that's football for you. Welsh and Allardice solid in the middle. Lots of positives today.
  3. Good solid signal here in Toronto. Think I woke up the neighbours when the second goal went in though

  6. These two items are of concern to me. No regard for local businesses who will take a long time - if ever - to forgive the club and trust them with any business dealings, and then apparently no idea about the disconnect with fans despite there being plenty of evidence of this all-over social media, this forum, and elsewhere. Treating the trust like something on the bottom of your shoe is also not cool. They may not think that any one group represents all of the fans, and that is true... but when you manage to discount, trivialise, and look down their noses at all the groups at once then its a recipe for disaster and a far wider spectrum of users than they may think. Its all well and good that we have a cup semi tomorrow and we have been on an upward trend in the league but let's not forget it was not that long ago we were at the wrong end of the table, looking at the other end of the playoffs and were OUT of this same cup. Fortune favours the brave and lets hope we are very brave in these next few weeks, but we are still unfortunately papering over the cracks on and off the field.
  7. noticed that. Also see a couple of other faces in the white shirts who i recognise from school - Donald MacDonald in front of his brother John, think Claude is in front row as well and a couple of others i recognise but cant place names at the moment.
  8. Even canyon would only have been 15 or 16 in 1982. Was in my year at the High School along with Billy Skinner and a few others who were great footballers.
  9. She has not logged on here in a long time.
  10. Another north football legend, this time in the field of journalism, has departed us. Most will recognise the name Bill McAllister, from local journalism, especially his eloquent and flowery descriptions of Highland League football which carried on into the after-dinner circuit and to his column in the Courier. If you didn't know him, then you may have unknowingly heard him on the radio describing those games for the BBC in their Saturday Highland Leage roundup. He was tightly linked to ICT over the years being a friend to many at the club over the years and also working as media officer under a couple of different chairmen. According to the courier, he took ill recently and passed away today. https://www.inverness-courier.co.uk/news/highland-media-giant-bill-mcallister-dies-311327/ I have a few good memories with Bill, but I think one of the best comes from the Caledonian Stadium on a day where a few of the internet supporters were guests of then chairman David Sutherland. Bill was there too, and as 4:45pm approached he phoned local reporters on the ground at various HL parks and wrote his report for the BBC right there in hospitality. He ad-libbed his flowery descriptions while on the phone to the BBC and then came back to the table. Pretty impressive how he put it together in just a few minutes. A master craftsman at work. Condolences to Bet and the family.

  13. Just 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. https://www.inverness-courier.co.uk/sport/tributes-paid-to-inverness-caledonian-thistle-groundsman-who-311070/ https://ictfc.com/tribute-to-tommy-cumming/
  14. Anyone received the typical AGM package - accounts etc? I know nothing arrived here last AGM and wondering if they will once again not send anything out this time around?

  20. 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.

  23. I will likely require a proxy . Typically @CaleyD has gone on my behalf but not sure if he plans to go to this one or not.
  24. 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.
