Programme has now sold out online and is only available at the stadium tonight.

The page is now up and running at http://ictfc.com/caleyjagstv - remember that you need to be registered with the site and logged in to view the page. Once the live stream is complete we will change out the live player for the on demand player on the same page....if all goes as planned!! I'll say no more than that, but if there's any questions or you spot anything odd then let me know. Thanks for your patience and assistance.

Good news about Big Tel being in attendance. I (along with most of you I assume) felt quite let down by the manner of his departure to Hibs, but I got a chance for a chat with him at the Scottish Cup Final....where he bypassed everyone else in the press area and came straight to speak to the ICTFC guys/girls....and I think he genuinely still holds great affection for the club.

With the tight turnaround for us to get everything in place to stream the Rangers game (Outside UK & Ireland) I've not had a chance to sort the new online home for it, so we'll be keeping it basic for tomorrow night. If you are planning tuning in then you'll need to register an account on ICTFC.com to gain access. Payment is taken via PayPal....but you can use your card if you don't have a PayPal account (instructions are given). It'll cost you £5 for the live stream (introductory offer).....and all being well, we'll also offer it On Demand in the UK after the holdback time....which I need to triple check, but should be midnight for Friday games. Oh....the match will also have our own commentary on it. We're not set up to offer commentary only in the UK for tomorrow night, but do intend to make it available in the future (for a small fee). I'll paste up the links here, on the front page of ictfc.com and via social media as soon as possible tomorrow.

Clearly a discussion that would be better suited to the UK Football section of the site as opposed to hijacking what could, and should, have been a far more interesting discussion about a milestone match for ICTFC....and the 999 that have come before.

All testing has gone to plan, just got to put together the pages for it on the new website and we'll be good to go for tomorrow night. I'll post more info later.

What is it they say about a fool and his money?

Works for me.

Different schedule this week with it being a Friday Evening match.

No confusion.....the match that's been included by the club, and not by others, is this year's Challenge Cup match. It's one that falls into a bit of a grey area for inclusion (or not) due to it being a senior tournament.....but with an age restriction for Premiership Clubs.

Can't sign for another club until the window opens again as he wasn't a free agent when the last one shut.

It's in hand.

Thanks guys....we'll do more testing tomorrow night....this was just a basic test of the actual stream and confident that's solid.

Test stream running above.....we'll let it go for 30 mind or so....let us know if you are receiving loud and clear.

I can't take credit for the potatoes analogy, unfortunately

Yup, covered that in my last post "with an on-demand option being made available for UK viewers after the hold back period" It's likely to be on a game by game basis for the remainder of this season to allow us to find our feet....and because it will take some time to formulate the subscription service.

Beat me to it...lol

Obviously the pre-Christmas update didn't happen, but the club took a huge step forwards in regards to developing it's online offerings with the installation of a high speed line at the stadium during the past week.....and we'll be working hard over the next few days to try and get ourselves in a position to launch live streaming with the Rangers game on Friday night for overseas fans, with an on-demand option being made available for UK viewers after the hold back period. We'll be doing some testing Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday evening so keep your eyes peeled on here for information on how you can help with that by patching in to streams and giving us feedback on how it functions etc. We have made a start on the second part mentioned in my last post above by adding 2 new volunteers to the Media Team. Liam and Sean have been with us for a couple of weeks now and are quickly coming up to speed....in fact I can say with some confidence that they have already passed the point of being time consuming (through the need to be trained etc) and are now productive members of the team. As well as assisting on match days with the first team, they will also be covering development matches as and when available. Priority will be on our home games to start with, but that will extend to away games more and more as we build on their skill set and ability to function independently....it all just takes a little bit of time.
