Can the folk in the north stand do this too

Hibs are not running buses. Will be interesting to see what the away crowd will be. Safe trip to everyone who can make it and are going.

This is a colossal week for us now. Losing to Hibs would be embarrassing and failing to beat the wee team on Saturday would be a very tough one to take. We need the three points and to put a dampener on their parade. Let's burst their party balloons and get a win. I'm glad JH went to the match yesterday. I really hope he can do it this week and get the players giving 100% in both matches from the kick off. I just hope we don't dilly dally about at the back, fail to get forward and end up having a solitary shot on target. C'mon ICTFC, let's do this - they're winnable matches. I'll finish on this quote from Pep Guardiola's biography: "I hate tiki-taka. I always will. I want nothing more to do with tiki-taka. Tiki-taka is a load of ****, a made-up term. It means passing the ball for the sake of passing, with no real aim or aggression - nothing. I will not allow my brilliant players to fall for all that rubbish"

We're going down. Really upsetting to see us regress so much, especially after last season.
-
Time for Foran to get involved. We're in a relegation battle.

RiG's flat for 8am

Pretty common to have mergers. IIRC, Aberdeen FC is a merger of two clubs - one called Bon Accord, I think. And Ross County is the result of a merger of Dingwall Victoria and another club.

They're calling us Caley on BBC Scotland.

The bookies usually offer 12/1 on us for the celtic fixture.

Odds on a draw are 6/1 and it's 1/6 for Leigh Griffiths to win.

I'd be genuinely intrigued to know the extent to which stewarding issues have had an impact on our attendances in recent years.
-
The idea of having representatives for different age groups is a good one. A lot of SNP branches elect 'champions' for different groups - older people, young people, etc. This is something CJT could perhaps emulate.
-
The population of the Highlands in 2011 was 232000 though. Granted, the wee team have some support, but we have supporters who travel from Skye, etc.

So TV companies are more important than fans who attend matches.

There's not a chance I'd part with my thermos. Bovril out of jar in a thermos is immense - and probably safer than the polystyrene cups they use.

Could the ban on flasks be abolished? We've probably got the coldest stadium in the top flight and being able to get a hot drink without paying rip off prices would be good.

I was speaking to a Partick fan earlier. He went up to the match because it was pay what you can. He said he paid a fiver to get in and wouldn't have gone if it hadn't been pay what you can. He said other Partick fans were paying 10/15/20 quid. I took a season book this year to help the club - especially in the hope of seeing replacements for Shinnie and Watkins (a tall order). However I won't be renewing next year as I've barely made it to a match. I can't justify spending £300 on a season book I've barely been able to use. I wish the clubs would approach Scotrail to see if they could introduce supporters services. For example, for the match against Hearts next week, people travelling from Edinburgh Waverley would either have to catch the 0633 service or the 0833 to make it to the stadium on time. Coupled with the fact that it's £52 return, it's not feasible on top of paying £20+ for a match ticket. The implications of fixtures being televised is also a major headache. ICTFC fans who live in other cities have to plan travel in advance but it's difficult to do this when fixtures can be altered only 6 weeks before the original date. Could the clubs thrash out which games they want before the start of the season and then publish the fixture list? Lowering the price for all fans (home and away) for televised matches would also be good. Hypothetically, let's say we have 19 Premiership home matches. 5 are shown on BT Sport / Sky Sports and they have been selected before the season starts. (Working on the basis we get rid of the split at the end.) Season ticket (adult, North stand): 14 untelevised matches at £18 each = £252 5 televised matches at £8 each = £40 Total of £292 Non-season ticket prices could be set at £20 (untelevised) and £10 (televised). I'd follow Partick's example of U16s go free. I'm unsure if pay what you can is effective or sustainable. I heard someone paid 7p to get into the home end yesterday. From my perspective, knowing the prices for match tickets in advance would be a big help. There appears to be simple solutions to combat falling crowd numbers but nobody seems to be bothered about doing anything.

The pies at Ainslie Park are £1 and a bovril is £1. Realistic pricing, IMHO

Spot on. Harry Gow for a fresh roll before the match and take it in with you.

I would hazard a guess and assume this is the case.
