Sergei has a Cup Winners Cup Medal playing with Dinamo Kiev who beat Athletico Madrid 3-0 in 1986. Not Champions League but worth half a point.

I do understand that but as things stand the ICT Battery Co now has two private individuals as Directors and one who represents the football club. From that point of view the football club no longer has control in terms of voting rights. I was not aware that Cameron had become a private individual serving on what until recently was described as wholly owned by the football club. You will recall that in November 2023 THC was aware that 'In addition, the applicant’s Site Selection Statement advises that the key rights and agreements for the proposal are held in the name of ICT Battery Storage Limited, which is wholly owned by Inverness Caledonian Thistle Football Club.' Cameron was a Director at that stage and we now know he was a private individual. Based on what you say, relying on what Morrison said in the podcast, not updated yet on Companies House, that ICT Battery Co is no longer owned by the football club.

How do we account for David Cameron being a one third shareholder when Companies House show that he resigned as a Director of the football club on 5 March 2022 ? See https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/SC149117/filing-history And how do we know that the Club have moved from sole shareholder in the Battery Farm to holding just 1%? Is this belief based on a fact that has not currently been communicated to Companies House in the delayed Statement?

Nicola Drummond, Planning Consultant, used to be a Planning Manager at Highland Council. When the Company was set up the football club was sole shareholder. Initial Shareholdings Name: INVERNESS THISTLE AND CALEDONIAN F.C. LIMITED Address CALEDONIAN STADIUM STADIUM ROAD INVERNESS SCOTLAND IV1 1FF Class of Shares: ORDINARY Number of shares: 1 Currency: GBP Nominal value of each share: 1 Amount unpaid: 0 Amount paid: 1 However, as you can see from Companies House an update is over due. https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/SC732789 There is a belief that Morrison may have bought a share in the Company for £250,000. However, as things stand it looks like David Cameron may have control over the Company unless it has been restructured to allow a non ICT Director to be on it i.e. Morrison. Behind the scenes this looks as though it confused Nicola as to the applicant.

Presumably time to close this sad thread and move on?

Remember that Morrison resigned on the 30th May 2024, one day before the accounts were due to be signed off. What did he say or do in those final hours?

Accruals involve certainty. Therefore the battery farm and car park issues would not have guaranteed income in the 12 months after closure of the accounts. If you cannot see the chicken you cannot count it. The Scottish Cup Final was on 3rd June 2023, but in the lead up to it there was certainty on prize money and TV income. The Accounts closed on 30 May, 2023 (later changed by a day).

Charles you are a famous author and award winning athlete, can you not spare a dime at this difficult time?

After a long wait by not just supporters, but staff and the mass media, the Board through Ferguson has spoken. After yesterday, it looks like Ferguson is not that optimistic about the Club's liquidity position. If Ujdur has been sold that upsets me. Ferguson did not seem to like him or was restricted by loan agreement restrictions on not being able to select him. If other Clubs want our players and offer cash, that's a no brainer if the Board is bluffing about the likelihood of new investment. Will Brooks be sold? Since relegation, we have witnessed the big clear out. Billy and Danny have a year left on their contracts as indeed are other players in the new squad. So fast forward, and part time football without new investment is easy to facilitate and the only sensible option to remain in existence. When Ferguson said 'You know the position of the club, that is where we are' he clearly does not know that people DO NOT KNOW. The club beyond him remain tight lipped. Someone somewhere is funding what is happening currently. As a reminder, it was Rae who appointed Gardiner 'Graham Rae, Chairman of ICT, said: “Scot has attended a number of our games this season and I have always been impressed with his knowledge of the game, both on and off the park. He has a wealth of experience in the football and business world and is highly regarded in the game.” '

If the Club had any decency it would put out a polite statement that encouraged existing ST holders to renew by 2 July to secure a small discount. We can but hope that after today's friendly that some sort of humanity exists within the club and something emerges. There is an element of guilt in not renewing but significantly more anger and distrust. It seems silly that the Club do not want money or that it remarkably is actually about to solve some financial problems. Accounts still over due with suggestion this might be problematic with SPFL Licence.

Where does Stuart Garden Arbroath's former goal keeping coach fit in?

Good to see that Scot Gardiner has updated the players for 2024/25 with Alex Samuel back at the Club....https://ictfc.com/team/inverness-caledonian-thistle Wonder if he will play against Clachnacud

If the club grovel with an appeal to supporters for someone to play in goal against Clach and for someone to be a substitute keeper, do we have anyone?

To directly quote a recently non retained player about Fergusons very authoritarian management style - which does not work - 'its my way or the highway.' As we now know, that is it.

If the Company is not a going concern legally, the Directors should stop trading.

Mark, Roddy, Lewis - makes a mockery telling supporters we're going to train in Fife because of the high cost of providing accommodation for players in Inverness - these three do not need accommodation and I bet NONE will be replaced by better players.

Always thought the plan would be to sign Cameron and then sell him for a fortune. However, playing without a recognised goal keeper could be risky.

Two interesting books on Amazon. 'Where's Scot? Is he under the stairs?' ...sorry I meant Spot. And quite interestingly 'In search of Duncan Ferguson....' https://www.amazon.co.uk/Search-Duncan-Ferguson-Crimes-Footballing/dp/184596392X Will the press be gathered at Fort George tomorrow?

Gardiner is experienced in football management but according to his Linkedin profile his formal education was only at Craigie High School. He does not state that he is professionally qualified in terms of Company Law or Accounting but that does not mean he is not. It is not clear what Morrison's formal professional qualifications are. A key person at the football club would have been Ian MacDonald, their Company Secretary, but he resigned on 26 April 2023. Companies House, however,was not notified of the termination until 10 January 2024. Therefore it is likely that professional advice since 27 April 2023 was outsourced, possibly to A9 Accountancy Ltd. Legal or Company Secretarial advice was probably from a separate source. One can see that the Accounts for year ended 31 May 2022 were submitted to Companies House on 28 February 2023. The Accounts were compiled by A9 Accountancy Ltd, Inverness. Described as Independent, Paul Capewell from A9, gave an unqualified statement as Auditor that the Directors considered the business to be a going concern until 31 May 2023 i.e. for the next 12 months after the previous accounts. The current remaining directors therefore got themselves between a rock and a hard place until we hear otherwise. On a separate matter Companies House state that INVERNESS CALEY THISTLE CONCERT COMPANY LIMITED is due to be dissolved on 27th June 2024.

.....of a chance to re-sign an International under 21 player.............and SAVE on accommodation costs.

The Board of Directors at ICT would like to thank the fans for their continued incredible patience at this difficult time. Just as a reminder, the LOYALTY period and EARLY BIRD date for discounted season tickets is 2nd July 2024. The Club has arranged three friendlies before the start of the Cup matches and is optimistic that we will have enough players soon. Contrary to some comments in the social media Board training does not start today.

14 years with the Club, badly injured playing for the Club, given false promises on operations to repair a serious injury, also due a Testimonial Match I think. Absolutely loyal and dignified human being. Contrast that with Ross Morrison. A very wealthy man. Just before Xmas 2023 he agrees a standard security with the Board over ICT FC assets etc. Then goes on a tirade against Highland Council because the battery farm was the route to pay off debts - clearly he had a BIG interest in this!!! Oversaw some last minute disasters. FORCED to resign by fans. No final dignity. P45s now sent by electronic means but nearly always after a letter of thanks, collections, and farewell drinks or party. Not a good image for a Club which clearly cannot see how damaged the ICT brand is.

Was Billy in the goalkeeping jersey? Ferguson will want to drop him further back to improve playing out from the back.

'....we now respectfully ask the supporters to rally around the team and the management, and a squad which will feature more Inverness and Highland players than we have had for many a long year and if ever we need the fans, it is now.' Maybe the Trust could ask the Club which team and management including squad we are rallying around. How can we currently rally around ......silence?
