ICT paisley, dont try and reason with the unreasonable. There are no "true" fans, or "hardcore" or "diehards"...there's probably a wee old 75 yr old man that has quietly been going to games since before the second world war, yet im sure because he doesn't travel to away games, he is a gloryhunter part-timer in some peoples eyes I supported Caley in the Highland league, and went to a fair few games home and way...big whoopie...im no better or worse than any other fan. Just a fan. Well done County! And yes, good on anyone who is big enough to know the Highlands vs the Glaswegians is worthattending when it doesnt affect ICT one way or the other!

I think the main gudgies at the moment have put a lot of work into this, especially cameraman...who owns the camera? That is a serious bit of equipment to be had...

We have a good record of buying young players who have been with big teams but then released. I'd like to see more of that, though competition is tough. LB, CB, AM, ST

BBC Weather Greenock seems to say there is a break between 4pm and 10pm in the rain.

Excellent resource. I love being able to see the highlights. Love it. Thanks to all involved, and well done the club and volunteers for doing this. It is a fantastic thing for the website, and the quality is excellent. (much doffing of cap....)

Most people talking on the subject were aware that DS had put a lot of money into the club, and also was the benefactor, and accepted that and were grateful. Yes, some were less rational but most of these gtf statements i ignore. Anyway, there was no witch hunt overall, unless you want to show me where, apart from the gtf posts, which are nonsense usually. Nobody was right or wrong after this statement, how could they be, there was no info available. The question asked by most was who owns the stadium? We have an answer, later than most would have liked, but the answer is now here, and so fears have been allayed. The answer is the end product, and i'm really appreciative of it

It's poor. It seems that Lindley's aren't committed to providing an acceptable service. The area manager said there would be changes/supervision, etc. Yet understaffing is what actually happens. Why are these people running it? Because they gave ICT the biggest cut. Poor show.

Its ok to use profanities, but you cant categorise people into groups nowadays. Religion, race, nationality, age, etc is a no no. If someone gets called fatty, baldy, or worse, it's ok, but not to use their nationality in a terse manner. Society is evolving, whether we agree or not. "Banter" is now illegal.

Don't agree with that. For well over two years there was no proof who owned the stadium, and nothing ever put into the public domain. Requests for information were ignored, and then supressed. The "hassle" you refer to was i assume not the posts CaleyD made on the forum, (as you could also be accused of creating hassle) but rather how it was used by the club to dismiss a volunteer, and for the Inverness Courier to run the story, with a club spokesman saying Don was dismissed because he was asking questions about who owned the stadium. It's all very well saying there was a lot of fuss over nothing after the announcement, as before you wouldnt be able to, would you?

15 pt lead...

As much as I am happy to get the information, the fact that it had been over two years in the coming, and towards the end invlved sacking a volunteer and a club spokesman embarassing the name of ICT in the press with a petulant defence, i'm afraid i don't feel ****-a-hoop quite yet. It remains as an example of the insular nature of the club, that instead of releasing this information from the get go, it took years and a silly dismissal of a volunteer to come out. However, it is here now. I am happy it is. I am relieved. But it had better be the start of ICT and all non-playing staff to start working on PR. There is a long way to go before ICT can be called proficient in that realm.

When it was mid-table I said here I wanted him to stay because I put a lot of stock in the charisma and personality of managers - O'Neill, Ferguson, Wenger, Mourinho, Pele, so that swayed me, plus Brewster had none of that, and I knew that the players had no inspiration under Brew - they do now!! It's personal for Butcher. Now ICT should be signing up the players asap. I'm a bit worried about that actually. Vultures may circle...

Adams talks about he sending off, the weather, but nothing about the actual result, ICT outclassing them. True managers such as Martin O'Neill would have said something like, "Credit to Inverness.." or "We were beaten by the better side on the day." not Adams though, talking about the weather after the game, as if ICT had nice weather and they didn't....*@?! ....oh, here's a better example than Martin O'Neills... "Ross County had their pride to play for which they did and I thought they really stuck to their guns and stuck to their task for their manager in the second half despite going down to 10 men." A real football man with class.

sorry is the game on the radio? If so where? Argh.....

At Walsall: made his debut in a 5?0 defeat to Brentford, gave away a penalty in this game with a bizarre handball At Sheff Wed: made his debut against Sheffield Wednesday, coming on as a substitute in a 2?1 home loss. He walked out on the club after another substitute appearance. At ICT: Took the money, and was rubbish, Butcher saw how bad he was and got rid, and now likes to have a wee cry to the courier At Ross County: Refused a contract extension, before sneaking back in like a rat, to open arms as would be expected, once a "#$% always a &*?! Has had 9 clubs, and i'd dare say 8 were glad to be shot of him...

Before the 2nd Div with County he played 50 games, for 7 different clubs and scored 3 goals... At County, in the 2nd division of the SFL, he got 24 out of 33 At ICT, he was more consistent with his entire career, i.e. awful, which is actually, what he is. He will be a sub anyway? May not get the chance to boo him! He is away down the Phil McGuire road

In which case... To Family Ness: You can think it, You can know it, You can see it in Dingwall, But you'll never be able to say ".....". You may say Gitan, or Gitano and Nomad, But you'll never be able to say "....."

To Family Ness: You can knock it, You can rock it, You can come to Inverness, But you'll never find County in the SPL. You may see Caley, or Dundee and Queens, But you'll never see County in the SPL..... To Que sera sera When we were just in 6th place I asked Terry, what will we be Will we be promoted, will we be rich Here's what he said to me. Que Sera, Sera, Whatever will be, will be County are Sh&*!, you see Que Sera, Sera 2-4-6-8 Motorway 2-4-6-8 ain't never too late County and Brewster *uckin' it up on the night 3-5-7-9 top of the league on time SPL football coming up with the morning light

Its a lot, no matter where. If we try to look at it from ICTs perspective, i'd imagine its like this... Darren is tasked with maximising matchday revenue, minimising costs and labour. Best way to do this is to outsource catering. Lindleys offer best deal, so ICT takes it. The issues with fans is irrelevant. The only concern is to tick the box, and present the figures to the board. You can see why it's been done this way. Fans complain, ICT has no obligation to respond to these, as it is a specialised market. Some token efforts are made, but within the constraints of the contract, which has already been put into the accounts for 2010/2011 so no chance of reneging now. Its not a futile topic, but it's hardly viva le pie revolution either. At the end of the day, the board want figures, graphs, flowcharts, breaking points, etc, not customer satisfaction surveys. It's just not important. If ICT was a shop, it would have been closed by now, such is its customer care. I'm not meaning to be harsh to any one person, or attacking anyone, it's just the way things are, at 90% of clubs.

Hey....lets not forget how they worded that "Deal"....the price of ?4 is SAVING the fan 90p. So we should be thankfull!! At the end of the day, cinemas/theatres/funparks/trains/airports, etc, all do the same thing. Captive audience, entertainment atmosphere, it's par for the course. Under Lindleys... Things that will happen Burger Van more accessible A bit more supervision on queues Local staff Things that might happen May get "hawkers" to ease congestion Things that will not happen Prices will not go down Glasgow Industrial Estate pies will stay Local Pies will not be offered Noone will ever be 100% happy I still think ICT should be supporting local businesses. After all wasn't ICT helped by Tullochs...surely they should be passing it on?

Frm ScotPrem website Safety Clubs must satisfy the requirements defined in the Stadia Handbook. Seating All SPL clubs must have, by no later than March 31 preceding any season and for the whole of that season, a stadium with no less than 6,000 covered seats for spectators. Winter Protection Clubs must also have adequate winter protection to help prevent postponements. Adequate winter pitch protection is defined as undersoil or underground heating. Not sure about the groundsharing but i think not.

Spot on, Kirishma.... Unfortunately there's a school of thought in the Highlands that Anything that comes from the Central Belt, just has to better than Anything that's on offer here. It is complete and utter bollox.... the converse is much nearer the truth. Indeed. And that is why the "community club" tag doesn't describe ICT. How can businesses in the Highlands expect to survive when they have barriers of entry to local markets? It beggars belief. Thing is, these award-winning local pies cost, what ?1.20-ish according to their sites. There's no excuse for ignoring quality local produce unless your bottom line is cash. That's the case here. I can understand ICT want a return/profits but surely heating pies in ovens and boling hot water could be done locally and with local produce. Edit: Remember: Pars Pies won no awards this year, and got 10th for their sausage roll in the Sausage Roll category. So take that with a pinch of salt, and maybe some Tommy sauce too...

The Area Manager said the pies at ICT were runner ups in the national pie awards 2009. This is true however it is a bit of a mickey mouse award compared to the British Pie Awards. Ironic thing is, this year, the same award they aren't anywhere to be seen on the awards apart from 10th for a sausage roll, while Forres have the best pie! The real awards have McDougall and Hastie as n.o. 1 British Pie Awards 2009 Winners: Clach FC (McDougall and Hastie) Joint Runners-Up: Reading FC, Ipswich FC Scotch Pie Club 2010 Winners: Murdoch Brothers, Forres Runner Up: Bon Bon Cake Shop and Tom Courts Wouldn't it be great to have two types of pie, one from McDougall and Hastie and one from Murdoch Brothers - supporting food from the Highalnds, supporting small Highland businesses. Instead we get pies from an Industrial Estate in Glasgow... verrily, that is the way of the world. Shame though.

Wikipedia has Neil Lennon as caretaker manager Mowbray spent ?10m on Fortune, Fox, Sung Yong, Hooived and prob another ?3m on undisclosed signings, Rasmussen, etc. They are deep in the mire unless those signings start performing...the biscuit tin must be well and truly empty It's great!
