Surely we could use him as a squad player at least? If Black and Cowie are offski there's a hole in midfield and he has an eye for the goal.

My man i have no control what happens in the heathmount :thumb04:

I believe Scotty is spot on in his analysis of the situation. No one has a better poker face than Grassa.

Beginning as in beginning, middle, end. We are now approaching the middle of the season.

1) Charles Bannerman is not the BBC although he does work for them part time. He is as entitled to voice his own opinion here as we are although in this case he hasn't. 2) This forum is not operated by or controlled by the BBC. As for impartial have you heard of Billy Dodds? 3) What Charles quoted was comments made during an interview with Graeme Bennett and not "Grassa's opinion clearly".

Why should Charles come on here stating Grassa's opinion clearly why not come on here stating Blackies opinion clearly after all the BBC are impartial Out of order. Charles does not represent the BBC on here He was simply quoting what was said during an interview with Grassa. Take a look around you, Black will probably be away at the end of the season or sooner. Charles and Grassa will still be here. I know which version I believe. Rubbish he was quoting a BBC article on here Get to the point caller.

That statement is in effect defamatory. All I have done is to have quoted ICT's Director of Football and his account of the manner in which events unfolded. I think you got caught in the crossfire Charles.

That's a nice pedantry hat you've got on... :thumb04: I thought you'd like it.

?250K til 2010 equates to the same deal but for one year instead of two.

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?

Why is there not a whoosh smiley?

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?
