no idea if its a good game or not but Alloa - Arbroath looks like a rip-roaring affair on paper at least ... 1-0, 2-0, 2-1, 2-2, 3-2 and all in the first 30 minutes !!

Just got back from holiday yesterday and headed to the lake for a much needed rest this weekend ! Isn't it funny how you need a holiday to recover from your holiday !!! According to the app on my phone, in 4 days at Disney and 6 days in Hollywood/LA we walked about 110 miles in total (I didnt hire a car - just used Uber/Lyft for long distances and shanks' pony for the rest) ... didn't measure the distance in San Francisco as my iPhone camera caught the dreaded OIS camera shake syndrome so it got left behind in the apartment in favour of an old Samsung phone (with a better camera!) most days but on the one day I did take it we covered 12 miles ! I think the little project that @CaleyD references might be able to accommodate this provided someone (or a few folk) were happy to do the data entry .... need to check the logistics as we would likely have to set up separate instances for Caley and Thistle but its probably do-able and eminently suited to this kind of thing.

ok folks ... back on topic please. the last half dozen or so posts have nothing to do with the subject. thanks.

This is really for the tech support forum, but will put it here as it may be relevant to people navigating the site in general ..... You can create your own searches and feeds and filter in/out the content you want or don't want or you can use the defaults under the 'my activity streams' menu. The default we set is to use 'unread content 2' . This will show all unread content since your last visit and index it by newest first. It does this as we have three search fields active (see below - 'read status', 'time period' and 'sorting' all have values. you can adjust this and save it as a custom stream which will appear in your new custom searches option. (see other image below). One thing that WILL mess up the (default) unread content function is if you routinely clear cookies after you visit and I have mentioned this to you many times. The system uses cookies to remember your login and to figure out when you last logged in to the site. If you insist on clearing cookies then change the time period to something like last 365 days instead of last visit and it should work better for you as it wont care when you last logged in/out. As I wrote this reply I have actually tweaked this for you ... the my activity streams will now show Unread Content (last visit) and Unread Content (all) ... set it to to use it as I have described. and then click the little checkmark shown to set it as your default.

ok I'll bite (a little). Disagree. Whilst Twitter and Facebook inevitably affected forums initially there is now a bit more balance. Forums have more structure and not everybody likes how it is hard to search or index things in social media. Forums now try to integrate more tightly with those media so they can co-exist rather than be rivals. People come and go. It has been thus for the last 25 years on CTO. I seldom read P&B but when I do I usually only last a few minutes before logging out. Each to their own though ? Contrary to the suggestions of some ... we seldom delete things, we rarely ban people and only close threads when they go off topic or are inappropriate. We have a very basic set of rules that have done us well for 25 years and if that means we also have standards then I wont apologise ! CJT has nothing to do with us. We have offered a platform for them to share info, nothing more, nothing less. The fact that some of the new office bearers are also posters on here is not exactly a revelation or a leap. I agree that there is a malaise in Scottish football but its been there for years. and the silly season at the end of the playing season is the worst part of any year .... look back at most seasons and its just as bad,

I haven't bothered to read the thread in full as I am on holiday in California right now but the rules are and always have been that personal attacks on other posters and staff members (past or present) of the club are not allowed and should be removed and posters dealt with. Other posters concerned about content can also use the report function if its not being attended to and they feel it should be ... I have spoken to one of the posters on this thread via PM (which is how I even knew about it) and the mods did hide all the crap from the thread so this is done as far as I am concerned. Aware that all mods are not active in terms of dealing with the stuff that arises - or the discussions that mods have about reports - and will deal with that on my return. I intend to trim the team quite a bit and may even look for some new blood .... I will use the site moderation activity logs to make my decisions. OK - back to vacation mode.

if you are volunteering .... no objections from me ! I have added them to our fixture list and had started adding them to the calendar but real life is busy ...

Because the club have not confirmed the squad details yet ... added them just for you The stats program used on ICTFC.com is owned and maintained by CTO and there are always gaps in the data in between seasons until we get the official info and pictures from the club and update everything. no conspiracies or news stories here .... just no confirmed data from club and I don't have all the contract details memorised !

I guess they just dont totally trust the technology over here then .... although it may also - in part - be a security issue too. As most of the professional leagues (MLS, MLB, NBA, and of course NFL) are American run then they have this over-riding 'september 11' mentality that makes entry to a sporting event almost tighter than airport security !!! The same rules apply in Canada despite the more relaxed laws. ... I am always that guy who the turnstile or airport gate or other automated entry method doesnt work for .... which reminds me we do have the automated entry to the subway (tube) here and that sometimes gives me hassle too !!!

Scanned tickets in all sorts of sports and events over here ... and whether its PDF, real ticket or a QR code on a smartphone ... the one constant seems to be that its hand scanned with a simple barcode reader. Dont think I have entered a sporting event or a concert without that. Only place I recall scanning any form of entry card or paperwork in an unmanned fashion is in a few airports where they have those gates to get from one area to the next and half the time those entry gates still dont work .. requiring manual intervention from the (usually bored) staff member nearby for just such an occurrence.

Davie has now completed his bike ride. Well done

Good luck to the new board. I look forward to hearing of the progress made and more importantly to hearing that they are all committed to working together to promote the interests of all supporters of our club. I also look forward to hearing that the three late nominations - subject to being deemed valid - are co-opted onto the board at the next meeting. The more the merrier. I also re-iterate CTO's offer to help in any way we can .... At least 5 of those 6 are or have been active members of the site so just holler .....

we'll be adding them to our calendar here (so typing them in for everyone) and there is an 'events' feed you would be able to subscribe to.
