It would be cruelly ironic if we did miss out on bringing European football to Inverness as a result of that late drama on Saturday. An Inverness boy (Armstrong) assists a Caithness lad (GMS) to score the winner!
-
Talking of the merger, there's an interesting article in the Sunday Mail today. I suppose it adds a bit of perspective if our European push ultimately flounders! http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/inverness-caley-stalwart-charlie-christie-1882945

Does this mean that the retained players have been promoted to the first team squad? Obviously Polworth and Cooper have played for the team before and can be considered such. Calum Ferguson has probably been elevated to first team, but like Martin Laing this season, will be on the bench at times. And Jay Cheyne has been playing at Buckie Thistle, so not sure if he's ready yet for the step up. But it's good these decisions have been made early so our squad can take shape in good time for our assault on Europe!!

Yeah, the young Georgian lad has had a few good reports on the U20's thread. Hopefully, Alex MacLeod's post above is correct regarding not releasing goalkeeper Mathieson.
-
Scotty and me of the same mind! I just posted but was beaten to it!
-
LOL ^^^ The same thought had crossed my mind! Neil Doncaster and David Longmuir will have to have a penalty shoot out or play rock, scissors, stone (best of 3)...

Only a few months ago he was considered hot property, too! Hope he finds a new club for next season. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11795/8193896/A-host-of-clubs-are-chasing-Inverness-Caledonian-Thistle-attacker-Kyle-Whyte

Thursday 18th July

It's great that Terry's got the lovely 'problem' of having 3 good centre-backs to pick from! In saying that, as happy as I am with the defenders we've got they've still shipped a lot of goals. I've just checked, and despite being on the verge of an unlikely European spot via a 3rd place finish, we conceded only 1 more goal the season we were relegated. We may well end up with more goals against as we've still 2 tough games to come!

I think Higdon deserves the award. He's been scoring a load of goals. The previous best return for a non Old Firm player was 21 by Anthony Stokes in his Hibs days. Billy McKay has surpassed that also but Higdon's total makes him worthy winner.

1st May Highland League Callum Dingwall (Clachnacuddin 1-3 Formartine United)

I was wrong to quote 30! Sorry! I was mistaken! We've played 25 guys (the likes of Oswell, Blackman make up the numbers) with 5 different others on the bench who weren't used! (Mathieson, Christie, Whyte, Hogg, Laing). But why let the facts get in the way of a good story!
-
Probably another 15 players!!! Don't want to sound negative but we only have 11 signed players at this time for next season. We've used 30 this season...a team for the SPL needs 18 just to fill the bench and likely 26 for a squad. If we qualify for Europe, then next season starts on 18th July...with maybe a 3 week pre-season, which would have to begin at the end of June...i.e..NEXT MONTH!!!

Full Time: Dundee United U20's 1-2 Inverness Caledonian Thistle U20's Shane Sutherland got the winner! Well done, lads!!
-
Chris Hogg sent off! Dundee United score from what I assume was the resultant penalty. 1-1 with 15 mins left.
-
I wonder if he's waiting to see if we qualify for Europe?!
-
U20's away at Tannadice today against Dundee United. Last away fixture in the league with a the home match v. Aberdeen next Tuesday wrapping up their season. https://twitter.com/dundeeunitedfc is providing updates to the game. Kyle Whyte has us 1-0 up at this time.
-
Their stadium and the TCS would appear to be UEFA Category 3 venues so County wouldn't have to use our ground!
-
Good piece of work that. I'm still smiling at use of the phrase 'well-endowed' to describe our abundance of centre-backs....!

Scottish football awards season 2012-13

Butcher now leading at the time of this post! -
Yeah, he's very highly rated. He's contracted at Morton for next season though so would require a decent fee as he's only 23.
-
Leigh Griffiths, Michael Higdon, Niall McGinn and Andrew Shinnie on the shortlist. It'll be the first time since 1989/90 that a non-'old firm' player wins it! Tough one to call. I can't see McGinn getting it as his goals largely dried up, whereas Higdon's been banging them in all season.
