Caley

Looking at the figures, Clach seem to get around the 250 mark for home games. At an average ticket price of ?5 multiplied by 14 home games a season that makes gate receipts of around ?17500. Once the rent of ?14000 is paid that doesn't leave a **** of a lot to go round. I would be tempted to say the CGF should reduce the rent to help make Clach viable, but if they haven't paid any rent for 2-3 years then there's no point as they obviously can't afford to pay any rent.

No, it implies that we would be willing to sell him rather than keep him tied to his contract. I think the fee we got for Rankin was a good bit of business. He was a much over-rated player in my opinion, and was only in the team of late to get him in the "shop window".

I'd go with ICT Ultras or Caley Thistle Ultras. I definitely don't want any mention of clan in the name. To me it conjures up images of shortbread tins and Andy Stewart. Don't like the family either. I think Pat Butcher owns the copyright anyway. Bridge End Ultras really does sound like a mob looking for a fight. To the outsider, it has no connection to the football club whatsoever. Sounds more like a bunch of dockers dying to kick the sh1t out of someone. The tag Ultras is nothing to be ashamed of. Those that think of Ultras in a negative manner really need to get up to date. As Scotty says, the Red Ultras Aberdeen site is very informative. I suggest some of the "old farts" take a look!

A wee clip, taken from the back of the North Stand, of the teams running on to the pitch is on YouTube here for anyone that's interested.

Bayne starts, we play a long ball game, we are pish, we lose. Happens every feckin time Bayne starts...wake up to this Brew FFS!

I hear the boar is not to be messed with...

The most interesting part of the Courier story for me was Sutherland stating his desire to have the stadium moved to the Bught. I take it DS is a major figure in "ICT Properties". This all fits in with the "land prices will skyrocket at East Longman" theories on here so far.

That's a bit harsh. He hasn't really been given a chance to show what he can do. Judging by the video clips on his site, we might be missing a trick here. He looks to be a natural goal scorer. Does Brewster not fancy him because he thinks he's too small? The best natural goal scorer we ever had was also a bit on the small side. His name was Iain Stewart.

Tokely was poor today. On current form, I can't understand why Brewster sees him as a better option to Proctor. Slow, unfit and undisciplined. Maybe not kicked out completely but definitely deserves to be dropped.

Same to you CD, and to everyone else here, even the ones who p1ss me off :33: and the ones that I p1ss off. :017: Resolution for 2008 - be nice to everyone on this forum. :024: All the best for the coming year to every ICT supporter, whoever and wherever you may be. :party01:

The North Stand was pretty full for the Killie game. Will be interesting to see what happens on Saturday with this offer. I predict a sellout NS with the overspill going into empty seats in the Main Stand. Perhaps segregating the South Stand, so that the few Gretna fans are on the side nearest the A9, would allow for any possible overflow of fans to be accommodated on the other side of the SS? Not saying this will definitely happen, but it wouldn't do any harm to have a contingency plan.

If we beat Falkirk on Boxing Day, we'll have had a run of 6 victories and a run of 6 defeats in the first half of the season. Surely that would be a first?

It would look a lot better if you'd inverted the table before posting it! :023:

Well spotted. Those new specs must be good!

Very droll 4ize! Yes, we have certainly had some good fortune of late, 2 "good" goals disallowed for Hibs and Celtic for example. But the team spirit, work ethic and passion shown by the players recently has been superb. That comes from the manager - he believes in his players and they know he believes in them. That's where they get their confidence and self-belief from, which means they give 100% for the manager on the park, and that yields results.

Can't complain about the Rangers shop really. If we had an ICT shop in Glasgow that brought in money for the club we wouldn't be complaining about that. I do think you have a point about JJB though. It's a scandal that no ICT merchandise is present there. Don't know if it's the fault of JJB or the club, but maybe you should start a PETITION?

I can't make my mind up at all. One minute I'm thinking 3-1 to us, the next I'm thinking we're going to get a hiding. Let's hope we play like we did against Falkirk and Hibs, and not like we did against Dundee Utd and Motherwell. I'll stick with: ICT 2-1 CELTIC Niculae(35, 80) Riordan(66)

How about a links section that points to other SPL teams' forums? e.g. jambos kickback, welltrustfc etc. Always interesting to hear the opposing fans' viewpoint.

Interview here. Starts 2h 03m into the show.

Agree with all the above. Well done Mikey! :003:

No. Two clean sheets since Proctor came in at RB says it all. Could be a Caff/Dods situation all over again.

Well, calling Marius a ***** **** might have something to do with that. I'm actually surprised that you've not been kicked off here permanently for that one. I'd rather you weren't banned TBH, as we all enjoy the craic with you, but that one was a shocker.

Jesus Christ, can someone build me a time machine to transport me back to the 1990s when paying fans could sound off without the PC mob having a go? If a player is doing sh1t, feckin let him know all about it. If he's doing great, cheer him to feck. THAT'S FOOTBALL!. It's not a kids nativity play, we don't all have to applaud even if we think it's crap. You've paid your ?20 and if you think certain players are not giving you value for money, then you are entitled to voice your opinion.
