    I actually filled Les up with Vodka and Coke last night and he told me that it's going to be "Torridon and the Staggies" performing "We're On Our Way" live with a medley from the Dingwall Gaelic Choir as a supporting act.

    How may gallons does it take to fill Les up?

    The 2 pitch invasions during the game, have been included in the referees report both clubs may now be punished by the SFA's disciplinary committee.

    Normally in these circumstances, a copy of the referee's report is sent to the clubs involved and their comments invited.

    The clubs have 14 days to respond and the matter will then be dealt with by the disciplinary committee at the next meeting

    From speaking to Jimmy Falconer yesterday I believe this to be correct and ICT are bracing themselves for a fine. More pitch invasions this Saturday and the powers that be are likely to be throwing the book at them. So don't do it.

    Police and stewards in Inverness are likely to be more prepared than their counterparts in Ayr were. If fans do come onto the pitch they will probably grab some of them who could easily find themselves ejected from the stadium (at best) and possibly banned from returning. Even if they don't get a hold of you straight away, there will be photos galore of the offenders all over the web and the club might act later.

    Maybe you think I'm scare-mongering but this advice comes from years working with the Supporters Trust and seeing the difficulties fans get into when they either break the law of the land or the rules that apply to football stadia. In some cases, they have been put through absolute hell. Don't let it happen to you on what should be such a great day.

    I'm with Scotty on this one, and whilst I chose not to join in the first twice I was on the pitch at the final whistle.

    It probably shouldn't have happened but it was always going to and it did....so it's a "hey ho" as opposed to "bah humbug" from me.

    It didn't really cause any delay, the fans were on, celebrated and off and it took no longer than player celebration and return to the centre for the re-start. Ref didn't look particularly surprised or perturbed and stewards handled it appropriately without creating any undue problems or carting anyone off....which might have happened in many other places we've visited this season.

    All I would add is that I hope the fans don't get carried away when we start pumping the goals past Dundee next week. Let's keep the partying to the stands until the final whistle and give nobody any excuse to rain on the parade.

    Agree totally with CaleyD's last paragraph.

    I do fear that ICT will need to be seen, after the events at Somerset, to do their utmost to make sure there are no pitch invasions during the Dundee game. Two pitch invasions in consecutive games, no matter how good natured, will be frowned upon by the powers that be.

    So I would not be surprised to read next Saturday night of fans complaining about what they consider to have been heavy handed policing and stewarding during the game. I'm not sure that can be avoided. I would also expect the players to be given advice to not over celebrate goals and certainly not get anywhere near the perimeter wall which Eagle and Morrison did at Ayr and led to folks coming on to the pitch.

    Be careful folks. People have been led away in handcuffs after pitch invasions at Caledonian Stadium before.

    Remember the last day at Hamilton? We took at least 500. It was a six pointer. It was freezing. It was lashing. We got soaked at the BACK of the stand. We got humped. Oh memories!

    The smell of sweaty socks with shoes in the air..........

    I raised this issue at the club today and they have had discussions with Ayr about this.

    ICT fans will be allocated the western end of the main stand and the covered terracing behind the goal at the railway end of the ground. So it all looks fine.

    In fair Dublin city

    Where the girls are so pretty

    I first set my eyes on big Richie Fo-ran

    Now he drives his Range Rover

    The Kessock Bridge over

    To laugh at Ross County

    And all of their fans

    And all of their fans

    And all of their fans

    He laughs at Ross County

    And all of their fans

    I love the fact the Chisholm is recalling Mickael Antoine-Curier from the Accies at the end of the season. Here is a player who was considered surplus to requirements last summer as Dundee would inevitably saunter to the Division 1 title without him. This says something, surely, about the arrogant way in which Dundee approached this season.

    Three months ago I thought it was impossible

    Two months ago I thought it was unlikely

    Six weeks ago I thought maybe we had a chance

    One month ago I knew we were in with a really good shout

    Two weeks ago I thought we were favourites

    Last week I was concerned we might lose momentum but we didn't

    Today, to all intents and purposes, we are Champions.

    These last few weeks have been an absolute blast for Caley Thistle fans. A superb comeback from the team in the second half of the season. There were plenty opportunities where they could have lost their bottle - but they never did. Brave, confident and skillful - you can't ask more of a team.

    Hearty congratulations to all players and management.
