TB and Attendances - Summer Football?
Let's make something quite clear....TB never slated the support. He asked if Inverness deserved this team....a question I have asked myself a number of times. Unfortunately for TB his comment was twisted by some of the national press and made to look like he was having a go at the support.

TB and Attendances - Summer Football?
The ticket situation you describe has been the case for as long as I can remember for games against Rangers & Celtic. It's also not unique to our stadium and is the norm throughout the league for these games. I believe it's also accurate to say that this is done at the insistence of the police. The reasoning seems to be that they don't want to risk having large numbers of visiting fans without tickets being left outside the stadium where it might create a flashpoint and/or need additional policing. Having tickets available for home fans only would only create a risk of (more) visiting fans ending up in the home end....again creating additional risk of trouble. With the drop in numbers and the fact these games haven't sold out in recent years, then (personally) I'm not sure it's still necessary. However, I do know that the club are in regular discussion with the police about how matches are covered....and indeed if some matches could be police free....so they are aware and actively looking to improve things in this regard. As for running out of hot pies, this was something that used to be a regular occurrence and has much improved in the last few seasons. From the little I know about food hygiene, it doesn't seem unreasonable that they would refuse to sell cold pies. I imagine the pies are originally prepared with the intention of needing heating/final cooking and temperature probes are used during that process which indicate that they do have some kind of regulation/guidelines about what temperature the need to achieve during that process before they can be served. Given the lack of complaints about these things recently then it would appear that the problem isn't systemic at matches these days and could be chalked up under the category of "sometimes chit happens".

Ooooh ooooh Gary warren
He was something else today, banging goals in at one end and stopping them at the other. Ngoo was lucky not to see a red card for lashing out at him, and I suspect he would have had it been the 30th minute instead of the 30th second of the match. From that moment on Warren had him in his pocket, much to the disdain of the Hearts Support. Future ICT captain, IMO.

Some very clever movement at set pieces for us today, especially when we had corners...keep an eye out for it on the highlights.

Dundee Utd Match - Ticket Offers
I'll get it confirmed, but I believe tickets need to be purchased from the ticket office before going through the turnstiles.

Our worst ever XI
No player who has been given his own song by the fans should ever be included in a "Worst XI".....that is the law.

Caley Jags Together - AGM
No reason why we couldn't look into that. We are concious that the more far flung supporters don't get too many opportunities to participate in these things, so that would be a good way to get round it for at least some of them.

Caley Jags Together - AGM
No way to ensure password remained with Members only (for the AGM). I know there's never normally anything that is super secret happens at AGM's anyway, but we do have to conduct it as a members only, confidential meeting.

Caley Jags Together - AGM
We can't stream the AGM as it's a members meeting and we'd be hard pressed to ensure it was only viewed by members only, but we can look to do something with the presentation afterwards....if not live, then we could record it and put on YouTube. With the league reconstruction presentation now replacing the planned Fans Question Time, we will be looking to do that at some point later in the season instead.

Butcher hits out at fans.
The stats are on the SPL website. Anyone that concerned about the accuracy of the C*unty figures could always submit a FOI request to the police as gate counts have to be reported to them.

Boo's to players !
What a crock of sh1t. Booing is a concious reaction to someone or something that you do not like, it's not some kind of deep emotional reaction. Have you ever boo'd a child or loved one because they did something to disappoint you? Thought not. If you have no emotional attachment to your team and view them as nothing more than a group of people who you have paid to entertain you...then I guess booing would seem acceptable.

Fraid the togetherness was "lost" today - there was dismay and disbelief evident on and off the park. But - yes - we have to stick together but please stop the happy clapping righteous crap - it costs some of us a load of spondoolachs to follow this team BUT today IMHO was as poor a performance as I have witnessed fer years. The tactics were the WORST ever. You were bragging to everyone that you got 10 free tickets....that would have saved you a few quid!!! Again a wee personalised dig when there is NO response to the comments about the game !! Purely an observation. I gave my comments on the game already.

Motherwell -V- ICT
Disappointing, and the first game in the recent unfortunate run where I would say we got what we deserved. Wouldn't argue with too many of the observations made by people who were at the game today, but it does grate when individuals seem to get some kind of perverse pleasure from seeing the team do poorly so they can get on their high horse. As for the assertions that the "Togetherness" is lost....not for me. I don't give up that easy on my team and I don't believe our team has given up on us. Thankfully the mindset that the team only deserve our support and backing when things are going well only seems to exist among a minority of fans.
