Ayr game on/off thread
well if the referee gets both managers to agree(over the phone i guess) then it would be postponed. otherwise if teh ref gives the game the go-ahead and Ayr dont make in time then ICT would be awarded a 3-0 win and Ayr would be hammered by the SFL for not making the k/o.

QOS- GAME OFF
from todays Sun Rae raps Chis slur Queen of the South chairman David Rae blasted Inverness CT chief George Fraser for blaming their weekend fixture K/O on Gordon Chisholm. The Highlanders claim Doonhamers boss Chis wanted an early pitch inspection and that the park was playable come 3pm. Rae said: "I want to make it crystal clear it was the official who made the decision to call the game off at 11:30 - not our manager!" Right let me get this straight; Originally there was a pitch inspection for 09:30 saturday morning(on that basis, Queens book an overnight stay in the Travelodge Arms). The ref was not informed of any 09:30 pitch inspection, so it was then arranged for 11:00. Pitch inspection comes and after 31 minutes the ref decides to postpone the game against the recommendation of probably one of the best Groundsman in Britain and the ICT chairman. Chis accepts the game is off and promptly accuses us of not switching the USH on earlier. Fraser then replies back that we requested a 12:30 pitch inspection so the USH has a chance to work in the warmer conditions(compared to the overnight temp). Chis(allegedly) refuses this and takes his players away in the huff. 14:00 arrives and Tommy and George both say that the pitch is perfectly playable by then so teh game could have gone ahead and not wasted the players' nor the fans time and money. Today Rae announces that it ws the official who called the game off. hallelujah its finally gotten through to them that it was the REFEREE who postponed it not INVERNESS CT. so maybe they can take their rant to them now.

Ayr game on/off thread
it aint the San Siro, all football grounds are cold, even in the summer!

Where is the money?
So how long do we run with that policy? As we all know, the last relegated team to win the First Divison was Hibs in 1999. By demanding that Butcher delivers where Jimmy Calderwood, Billy Stark, Jim Duffy, John Robertson and Stephen Kenny all failed seems to be setting a ridiculously high target. I thought it was St.Mirren???

QOS- GAME OFF
Because 3 more inches can be cleared from the pitch but that extra inch makes all the difference! Do you just make these things up? There was a lot more snow when we played Dundee on boxing day, it is more to do with the surrounding conditions if the game is off or not as the temperature is forcast to rsie. There is no set depth of snow that calls a game off. Yeh there is. try the Drumochter for that!
-
QOS- GAME OFF
Is that what your mate is saying? well BBC forecast says its going to snow heavier and more constant for the next 2 days so the game probably will be called off tomorrow rather than friday id think?

Ayr game on/off thread
been snowing since atleast 5am this morning and is still snowing as of this moment. it has been on and off but it has been quite thick when it has been snowing.

Where is the money?
Having now thought about the players that left in the summer, im beginning to wonder as to whether Garry Wood, Iain Vigurs etc actually had relegation release clauses in their contracts. Obviously if the club went down they couldnt support an Under 19's team and maybe these guys fell into that catergory in that situation. Surely if we stayed up then they would still be here no?
-
Ayr game on/off thread
well its not actually cold and it has forecasted to be above freezing so the USH(if it was to be switched on) will cope with it. Just depends really on whether Ayr can actually get up for the game?
-
QOS- GAME OFF
Ok then lets try and answer some; "we are run like a diddy club at times but keep burying your head in the sand it's nobodys fault bar our own." - True but thats more to do with the board than anything else "Then that makes it worse on our part diddy club are we." - in connection to the USH, again we are not obligied to switch it on so Q.O.T.S have no basis to make any complaint against the club for it "Maybe our joke of a club could have decided either we put the ush on or not" - See response above "Inverness Thistle failed" - Thats why the club merged with Caley and now its Inverness caledonian Thistle! "So knowing the forecast was well below freezing why waste money on switching it on in the 1st place." - no, the forecast was taht it would be about -3 and it was double that. weather predictions are not 100% right all the time. " someone putting 2+2 the gether and getting 5 and trying to deflect any blame" - cant remember what this was in reference to? " although our club has to shoulder some of the blame hopefully lessons will have been learnt" - Yep we do, we should learn that we should not switch the USH on AT ALL in this division. "sometimes we run like a diddy club" - Havent we crossed this ground already "stop trying to deflect criticism of our club silly gamble switching ush on Friday" - again not ICT's problem. we are not obligated to have it on at all. "money we can ill afford was now wasted" - Yes we have wasted a few grand tryingf to oplease that circus from Dumfries "the loss of income from hospitality etc and gate money will hopefully teach us a lesson" - i doubt we would have made much out of it. Most of our home support is mainly season ticket holders so the club has the money from that. Some hospitality will be lost but not a great deal. And considering that queens wont bring up much support on the saturday anyway, there aint much of a loss there!

QOS- GAME OFF
Queens can complain all they want but the fact of the matter is that they were presented with options. They were told that there was little to no chacne of the game being played(with or without USH) so why did they book an overnight stay in Inverness on that chance then? I would have had them up on a bus the saturday morning, atleast then they are only losing the cost of a driver and a bus hire rather than an expensive stay at the Travelodge Arms Hotel :P . Queen's can complain as much about Inverness CT & Dunfermline having USH but neither club is obliged to use it under the rules of the Scottish Football League(thats why St Johnstone will get hammered by the SPL for it). The SFL wont entertain any idea of subsidising any club with USH under their current rules.

QOS- GAME OFF
How simple do I have to make this and apparently several other aspects of this issue for you? There was NO 9:30 inspection on Saturday! The 11:00 pitch inspection was originally supposed to be at 09:30 but no-one told the ref.
-
Where is the money?
Yes, the clause states that they won't ever, ever(1) get relegated.(2) (1) ever! (2) subject to hell no freezing over Concerning the OF i dont know if thats fact or a joke? :P
-

Scotland Squad for Czech Republic Game
remember everyone gets a clean slate with Levein so maybe thats why and hes probably judging him on his recent exploits at Blackpool. Levein probably knows Kenneth could do the job under him.
