As things stand every away game I feel we are being kept in limbo because of the uncertainty of the situation... ie .. are we going /are we not . Is there really nobody in the higher ranks of the club with a contact to a large company who could go with begging bowl in hand and ask for them to subsidies buses . As has already been pointed out our rivals OTB can manage it . Who owns Weldex ??? Roy MacGregor ???

Invariably when we leave stadium for away games there is a minibus parked apparently unused. I don't know how many seats there are but I suspect there would be enough for the regulars who are keen to travel to support their team . The problem is who if it's not their job would be willing to take on the responsibility of transporting fans especially over winter period .Also do you not need a special licence to drive a certain size of vehicle ? As I've said above its a sad situation we find ourselves in but if that's the way it has to be I would be all for it so the few regulars like myself can get back to looking forward to our away days . I am not volunteering myself for driving but I'm sure there is someone more than capable maybe the Club could stretch to a small payment for their trouble . We are now clutching at straws but before we find another way of spending Sat. afternoons and fans dwindle even more lets try to find a solution . As this is second bus cancelled this season and we are not half way through I don't feel very encouraged .

What a very sad state of affairs . These are the fans of the team holding the Scottish Cup. Not a junior school team . It's shocking that this is what we would be reduced to .

Are tickets for R C game on sale ? .Appologise if I've missed announcement but I can't find anything about them on forum .

As a regular user of supporters bus I am very happy the way things are as all fans are catered for We could look at time of leaving depending on distance being travelled .ICT have a lot of young faithful fans who turn up every week where possible most of them are under age to go into pubs this has to be taken into account when making changes .As far as I know parents have to give consent for them to travel but who is responsible for them when we arrive at stadium too early and they can't or don't want to go to pub ? Our buses have always been run exceptionally well and Im sure the majority who travel have no idea of the work involved .Please do everything possible to keep our young fans safe .

Great news !! Hopefully some truth in it ,just to hear they are almost there is a bonus .

Get Harry Chibber on the board ,and the future will be bright !!!!!!

David Raven to the rescue yet again ......well done David !!!!!! Promising signs from team but as happens often just can't keep things tight enough to final whistle. The saddest sight was seeing Nick Ross getting his feet taken from him ,which could have been very serious . We are not a team to use dirty tactics and Nick is one of the nicest natured players we have had . He looked unscathed so I hope no damage done and hope we don't see a repeat of this .It was sickening !!!!

Yes this is very true I've done it ...but ...Gold bus or Mega bus doesn't go to Parkhead ,Firhill , Tannadyce, Rugby Park , etc. etc. By the time you get yourself to these stadiums you will be lucky to have change of £20 ...

So the adventure begins !!! Sadly I'm not able to go due to holidays but wish Team and all travelling friends and fans a very safe trip .Have a great time and take home a good result ...Haide Caley Thistle !!!!!!

Proves what a decent loyal boy he is .So pleased we won't play against him as fans do turn sour towards ex players. After his hard work and achievement with us it would be sad to hear him getting grief.Wishing you All the Best of Luck for your future .Thanks for the memories Marley they're here to stay FOREVER !!!!!!

If it comes down to preferential treatment (my opinion only ) would be .The die hard fans who travel the A9 and A96 to every away game whatever the weather regardless of results should be a priority .It would show a little gratitude from the club for loyalty .I appreciate it comes down to cost on a weekly basis .

This time last week Josh was an ICT player known mainly by his fans . This week there are not many in the football world who hasn't heard of Josh Meekings .Our Josh has made history .Go on now Josh and make history for ICT on the pitch .We are all very very proud of you.

If true no surprises there .

Don't know how true it is but one of the local journalists on Twitter naming Adams Snr as a panel member. Thanks to the panel for their common sense anyway. He was on Radio Scotland just now and was speaking in favour of Josh So you could be right .Maybe we owe him one

Fantastic news !!!! Thankfully the three panelists had a brain !!! We can all now get back on track and look forward to the best day out in ICT s history with no Celtic involvement .Delighted for Josh and Well Done to all involved in getting justice for him .

It's Celtic !!!!! Had they been given it and Ryan saved it . They would have got a second bite at the cherry Ryan moved too soon or some pathetic reason to con the ref !!!!!

We appear if all reports are correct to be getting a lot of sympathy from all over from other clubs . Would be good if they come along on the day and give us their support and help us on the way to lifting that important piece of silver .Because try as you may Celtic you can't change the fact we are In the final and you're not .Get over it you shower of spoilt brats . High time someone had the balls to put a stop to the hold they have over every decision made whatever Team its against .HEAD UP JOSH WE ALL LOVE YOU AND KNOW YOU ARE NOT A CHEAT !!!!!!!!!

It is only a sending off if deliberate. It's only Yogi's opinion but it certainly makes ICT look more than a bit naive in the media handling. Surely Yogi should have been briefed by legal counsel before undertaking an interview of this sort for flips sake! If this is the attitude John Hughes is going to meeting with God help you Josh !!!!!

This is my first comment for a long time but like everyone else on here can't believe this decision. Just heard John Collins on news staing that if they had been given the decision they would have won Says who John ??? It's like dealing with kids in the playground .Why do Celtic think they have the God given right to win everything ? I attend all home and away games and if this decision is not overturned God help the refs because I can honestly say their are decisions missed at every game and this is going to open the floodgates like they have never been opened before. Now I think as fans we have all to get fully behind our team and give them all the support we can because in the end of the day we are going to Hampden and Celtic are not. The SFA have just proved what we all suspected how they don't want teams from the Highlands In the League . This is such a sad situation and Josh is not a nasty player it would be criminal if he misses the biggest game of his career.With that in mind I would be more than happy to make a donation to the Club to with the cost of this appeal .If anyone knows how this can be arranged please advise .

Looks like no stone was left unturned on Sunday at Parkhead . What a horrible day out .!!!!!!

Hearach, that is by no means a rant that is a very accurate account of our visit to Parkhead yesterday... I too witnessed the incident with the child and tried to stress how dangerous it was to the police in attendance , but came away absolutely disgusted at there attitude as apparently its quite in order in Glasgow to jump up and down at the top of a concrete stairway with a child on your shoulders and not holding on to him ... As for the Green Brigade Im afraid they ruined our fans effort of support .As a fan I don't suppose My voice will be heard but I would hope the club could speak on our behalf or there is no point in us attending .The incident of the drum just sickened all on our bus I was heart sore for the boy involved as he is a very quite polite young boy who attends regular and for a lowlife to do what he did is just beyond comprehension.I know including myself that there were fans on the bus who would be more than happy to donate towards a new drum for him .Whether he would want to take it to matches well that would be his choice and nobody could blame him if he chooses not to. I hope he has not been too traumatised by it.

Well said Dougal ...then maybe this thread wouldn't have been in vain.

Izzy, I'm sorry if you accidentally misread what I was saying,but a couple of points. I have made it clear that I would have found this offensive and acted (as I have previously done). You must also realise that the police will only act if there has been a complaint in this respect. It seems there was none. The teams that you think we bear no comparison to are football teams who have fans as well, of all types who can be offensive as well.. I have a long background as a professional in mental health, and find your (erroneous) implication that I would minimise the effects by "making excuses" a bit - to quote you - offensive. I did not mean to offend anyone Davie and I apologise if you have been offended .I take your point about the Police and had I been closer I would have said something .I can't imagine how offended Richard Brittains wife feels and its her I was speaking up for . I too have worked in Mental Health Davie and this is why I feel so passionate about it. Reading OTB there are fans on there stating how there are a few of our fans going to get our club into trouble with that particular song. I hope I have explained myself and my apology is accepted, but my views on the original post does not change.
