If they turned that area back into terracing I'd happily part with 300+ quid for my season ticket as opposed to the 200 I've paid at the moment for the bridge end. I always used to stand in that corner with my old man pre-sp hell and north/south stands.

Mibbee they listen to too much Runrig and have picked up the way donnie munro signs it. Btw anyone know if there's any pre-match entertainment planned

I've just had a look on the club shop online but there doesn't appear to be anything in terms of thecup final. Has anyone been down to the club shop recently? Have they got anything in for it?

The other thing I'd like to mention is the perhaps removing the number of posts people have on their profiles? And much in a facebook kind of way a tab to 'like' a statement? Quite often people quote a statement and add a few words of agreement in - I've done this myself. Oligarchical power struggles are at play already on this thread. The 'net would be a poorer place without CTO. ps can someone please remove this 10% warning off my profile please?

One aspect of CTO I find myself coming to rely on is news about the club. After relegation the amount of coverage we get, as everyone will be aware of, has decreased dramatically. Ergo, I find myself coming on here far more. I realise that a lot of people give their time and money to run the site and for that I thank them. Ultimately though we are operating within an oligarchical power structure here and there are those who have power and those who do not.

Being involved with football is a bit of a thankless task in many respects. I'm sure there are stresses on every manager to produce the goods. Totally off topic but I really feel for phil brown the hull manager at the moment.

I hope they survive. I've got a relative who plays for them and I enjoy the pre-season friendlies down at Grant Street. Keep us posted as to when the game is going to be played.

I'd be sad to see him leave but I would like the club to sign an imposing centre half who has *a bit* of pace in the January window. Imrie can be very entertaining at times and I always maintain he does give it 100% when he's on the pitch. I'm hopeful of a good showing from him on Sunday.

Walter Smith with McCoist again would please me. I thought they did a great job last time round.

It's a fecking joke! It's either a direct train at half nine or a two hour journey via Stirling, all after a night out on the Saturday. I am going, plus two. Altogether now: I'd rather be in Kabul than Dundee Rather be in Kabul Rather be in Kabul than Dundee You can stick your f*cking circles Stick your f*cking circles Stick your f*cking circles up yer arse. etc Aye a two hour train journey for 44 miles. Personally couldn't believe how crap the service to Perth from Edinburgh is on a Sunday.

I'm going + 5. Getting a lift up to Perth on Sunday - trains from Edinburgh are few and far between. Really looking forward to it. Hope the turnout is decent.

This is a wikipedia wind-up that's gone too far. Pat Nevin is 100% weedgie - i'd be surprised if he's even set foot in the Highlands. Barry Wilson is a Fifer although i think he deserved that status of 'honorary Highlander'. On topic, i think it's a real shame that we haven't kept an U-19 team. The cutting costs argument doesn't really wash as nearly every other team in the First Division has one. I think this is yet another example of short-term thinking from the ICT board. Short term thinking from the board?! Never!

A win on Sunday would certainly be a pyschological boost. And would send a clear message to all and sundry that we ARE title contenders.

The SFA are going to meet this week to discuss George Burley's future. According to the BBC he's going to be offered a package. I'm assuming by this that come a week Saturday we're going to have a full time manager. Will this make an impact on our promotion prospects? I've got good feelings about our next six games AND the rest of our season.

As well as video footage, the club is missing out on other marketing opportunties where we could be making money to invest in youth development and the first team. I recall there have been threads about this, though this is an issue which could be addressed. Fair play to Dundee for getting some merchandise out to celebrate the cup final next week.

28/11/2009 - Partick Thistle - Inverness CT win 05/12/2009 - Queen of the South - Inverness CT a draw 12/12/2009 - Inverness CT - Raith Rovers win 19/12/2009 - Dunfermline - Inverness CT win 26/12/2009 - Inverness CT - Dundee win 02/01/2010 - Inverness CT - Ross County - a win against the wuds. We'll have space to play and our pitch isn't a tattie field. I hope that for these games we get some of the top cat one refs like Calum Murray in. One of my pals who is a pars season ticket holder told me that qos basically kicked them off the park.

A win is a win... "lets all be negative!"

10 man Ayr from 60 minutes no less.

So long as it's negative it's acceptable on here. We should have scored more.

Thanks :) :) :) If there is to be a DVD (and I hope that there is) it will be a 10th anniversary edition and as the 10th Anniversary isn't until February, so don't hold your breath for news just quite yet. First chance to see the whole 90 minutes of the game will be at the dinner in the Drumossie on Feb 6th. See 'Still a night to remember' thread. We are hoping to release a DVD soon after, but there are many hoops to jump through yet before we can make any promises. I've got it on VHS. Could easily convert it to a DVD. But then that's probably illegal...

Ach,ye'll be able to wear them for bringing the peats in Hearach,Whit part of Harris ya from? hopeful we pick up three points today. Gutted as I've just woken up and missed the last train from Edinbrgh which would get me to the big snake on time for the game. I think we'll walk the cup final btw.

Butcher is a stopgap, his contract should't be renewed. He saw us as a road back to full time management and the board saw him as a "name" to appease the fans, how's that working out for them? SPL to SFL mediocrity in a matter of weeks. No new contract until he demonstrates a degree of consistency and only then after looking at all the other options available to us. You fail to mention that we were spiraling to SFL mediocrity before Butcher came along, he did almost turned it round with players he didnt know (or sign in the window). However as we have seen Butchers signings have been dropped like flies and the old players gradually being re-introduced, i think we are looking at a more positive side now and if he signs a decent defender in January to stop the leaks, we could have a decent run in to the end of the season. I'm in agreement with you on that 100%. We need a Dods'esque' centre half who can command. IF and it is a big if they can sign someone then that will make a massive difference. IMHO.

Not really a constructive comment. On what grounds? I'm probably of the inkling that we should try to get the current management team to sign for another couple of years. I like the fact that Terry gets animated during matches and appears to be passionate about his role. I'm not keen on him going public in regard to performances from Saturday.

I can help but think that the situation we're in at the moment in terms of management is the same as what Rangers were in when Walter Smith announced his departure before the end his last tenure. This had a really negative impact on his results in his last season. I can't help but wonder if this is the case with Terry at moment. I'm of the opinion that good managers motivate players through praise and building confidence. Stability is also key to this. In many ways I'm wondering if it would be better if the club either offers them new contracts OR come to agreement where we can appoint a management team on a longer term basis to give us the stability we need.
