Excellent news, it should go some way to filling the deficit left by lower crowds and shortage of cup runs for the last couple of seasons.

You're absolutely right 5th Stand lets not talk about anything ever again since it's never the fans responsibility to deal with the issues... :thumb04: Who would replace them? The club will decide who to replace them with if at all. Who would you like to replace them if they leave? Totally different question. Here to help.

That's the one, the point I'm making is that we were told that the club was confident he would stay. He would probably have been our top scorer again last season and this if he'd stayed but that's pure speculation. Can't say I'm sorry he lost his shooting boots. ICT curse and all that.

Approached by who though? Paul Gadd?

I can remember hearing the same about Dargo.

Is it not the Manager's and DOF's responsibility to replace them?

BBC Website Last 5 matches: LLLLL :thumb04: Edit to add Must've been Billy Dods predictions.

For the avoidance of any further doubt, the type of expenses you refer to here are NOT included in the directors emoluments reported in the accounts. Legitimate business expenses (eg travel, meals, hotel bills incurred in the course of club business) are excluded. The text quoted above above refers to "expense allowances" of the type whereby a director is given a load of money to do whatever he wants with, with no accountability or receipts required, and is therefore indistinguishable from salary. One thing I'm not so sure about: is it just an assumption by CaleyD that the director receiving emoluments is actually and solely Bennett? I doubt very much if there's no accountability, we have a very shrewd board and they're not going to throw money away as is demonstrated in contract negotiations. So glad to be surrounded by some well informed supporters.

Cheers D that's as clear as mud. Anyway, it's not a salary it's an emolument (reimbursement of expenses). Note that expenses are included in that, ie travel, meals, entertainment etc., when courting (for want of a better word) prospective talents and/or their agents. Doesn't seem excessive in that context to me anyway.

As Inverness is now multi-cultural we should accomodate our Polish neighbours, how about Pole dancing too? And as Santa is coming soon, where's he from again? Lapland?

By definition "emolument" implies Grassa has to work damn hard for it, could it possibly be travelling expenses and accomodation while on company business? I don't know. Very few know and why should we! :018: Someone is lying, ask yourself who will still be here in a couple of seasons and is more likely to lose face if they lied. :thumb04: What non-footballing income streams do we have? A car boot sale? Glass half empty here too.

Spot on Alex.

Absolutely agree with you, why not have the facility to donate the change to whatever and the turnstile operator can tally it up at the end.

Perhaps. Where's the fun in that though?

I think you should take a flying f**k.

That wasn't a quote from pie and bovril it was an observation I made. 6 Invernessians arrested after the game for fighting according to todays courier. 6 young lads arrested,typical heavy handedness from the Inverness Dibble,Stenny fans were singing songs and trying to wind up the wine shed mob,the young lot walked past them at half time and the Stenny fans were noising them up,looks like the Inverness boys went for it after the game and showed the soft southern B*****ds that we arent gormless teuchters afterall,all 6 have been hit with banning orders by the local constabulary :018: Inverness Police get a grip,seen a lot worse at the start of the nineties good on the Clach young uns about time there was a mob doing Inverness proud again,shame they dont go to ICT maybe they would have a go at all the Huns and tims that sit in the stands without a word said when we play them Stand up for your City!!! Are you condoning violence at the match then?

Well that's what he should be getting now. Yes that's mature. :018: Care to argue your point in adult manner? Grassa doesn't need to be at ICT, he is there as a football fan trying to do his best for his local SPL team. When he started in the DOF position it was widely discussed on here that he was not drawing a wage, I had my doubts and still do but reasonable expenses are not outwith the range of the clubs finances and I expect that is what he is on now. ICT do not need a full time DOF and we don't have one. To suggest that his expenses would cover any increase in wage to retain players is not only erroneous but complete folly. Who's wage would it be next season? Mike Smith? And the next? Where would it stop? That adult enough for you? :thumb04:

Well that's what he should be getting now.

Seconded. 'Thirded' What ridiculous salary is that then? Evidence please. Anything more than voluntary work would be ridiculous. Here to help :thumb04: That's what he started as.

Seconded. 'Thirded' What ridiculous salary is that then? Evidence please.

story here Yeah I read the article and for the life of me I can't think of which Rangers player was at Euro 2008!!! The article also states Scottish clubs got a total of ?359,196, which, if you subtract the Celtic money (3272,989) leaves ?86,207 From the very same article.

Clicky Brilliant, why didn't we think of it first.

Thanks TABS love your avatar. I'm scared.

We're a' Jock Tamson's bairns? I'd be happier if Freddy Boswell was at the fore at the moment.

I'd be happier with that, if the team have the mindset that every game is an away fixture they'd be in a better mental state to play at TCS IMHO.
