  1. In terms of loans, remember that Sean, Roddy and Wallace will be back soon.
  2. Morton sink to the bottom.
  3. Robbo got us into the Premier League.
  4. Will he stop the Dick Campbell wise cracks? That is the question.
  5. From a personal perspective, to have Scott Brown as our next manager would be quite an achievement. I never really liked him as a layer but his career has moved on. Interestingly, he signed a new 2 year contract shortly before he was sacked by Fleetwood after they made a very poor losing start to the season. They remain second botton to Cheltenham who have yet to score a league goal after 9 games! So he would feel very much at home here in the Highlands but with him being back in Scotland the Inverness players would be bursting a gut to start getting results again.
  6. Born in Dublin, O'Dea played for Home Farm before he was signed by Celtic as a teenager.[1] After making his way through the reserves and academy side, he made his first-team debut for Celtic in the Scottish League Cup against St Mirren in September 2006.[2] A month later, O'Dea made his league debut against Inverness Caledonian Thistle,................................
  7. Davie Carson was turned inside out for the goal, Mark was very slow to react. Beyond that the highlights showed some effort on our part to score. In some ways it would be nice to hear someone in the club mention relegation is clearly a possibility if we continue as now. That would recognise the situation. My concern is that the Cup Final created an illusion as did Billy becoming all time top scorer.
  8. Roll up, roll up, roll up ....for the great points give away. Something has to give fairly soon and if it is the 'ICT points give away promotion' again the Club has to act. With Ayr losing last night here's hoping that everyone wakes up to day for at least 100 minutes of playing time...and more if needed. We are surely not as bad as the current perception indicates.
  9. In terms of change - i.e. giving one or two people notice - we are quite rightly in the dark in terms of privacy. Unless there are some tangible performance clauses in contracts or notice periods are short, it is probably unlikely that we can afford to change things within management. We do not appear to have leaders on the pitch. Sean Welsh is prone to injuries but offers motivation. He has been missed but additionally we need someone like Bobby Mann to act as an anchor and motivator. Is there anyone out there....?
  10. 4th August 2023 Manager Billy Dodds says Inverness Caley Thistle are a scalp for other teams now. Billy Dodds believes Inverness Caledonian Thistle's cup exploits last season will have others looking at them as a scalp in the 2023/24 Championship. 2-0 with Arbroath winning...........
  11. We normally provide longer contracts to Managers after reaching Scottish Cup Finals and then so far get relegated. We can but hope that if results remain poor and without a string of injuries that there is some wriggle room on ending Dodd's contract. Something has to change soon. Arbroath play Queens Park next Friday so a point for them leaves us where we currently deserve to be. We have two weeks to put in a decent performance at Airdreonians. It is unlikely that we will hammer them.
  12. Dodds did say pre match that once we cut out silly mistakes we will give a side a good hammering. Still a minute or two to achieve that today.
  13. Two visiting Dutch visitors concluded that the referee was poor. We cannot blame him for our 70 minutes of lacklustre play. However, hopefully that is the end of our pre-season friendlies or else we will be bottom after the next two away games.
  14. The compilation video is quite some piece of collating for whoever put it all together. It is quite interesting to see how many headers Billy has scored. A great achievement. Ross County were not expecting his volley. Looked fantastic from behind the goal.
  15. Our first success this season - keeping the score down to 1-0 and eliminating Dundee from the competition. Max Ram back and a few others getting invaluable experience or game time. In retrospect it might have helped if the Club had made it clear that because of the Cup Final players were required to have 28 days rest...and that as a result, the League Cup was a bigger challenge for us this season because of the Cup Final late date in the previous season.
  16. Pleased that Big Harry has been signed. Big challenge for him but his height up front changes our attacking options.
  17. I was not present on Tuesday night but swearing at staff in some workplaces is deemed serious misconduct.
  18. We have recently seen too much emphasis put on Billy beating our scoring record. Great....but.... For the bigger picture let's hope two poor defeats and a less than convincing win against Bonnyrigg create a big wake up call before we end up bottom of the Championship after our first three games.
  19. These were the days 'In 1990 Caley scored a penalty shoot-out victory against Airdrie in a third round replay at Telford Street and in 1991 they held St Johnstone to a home 2-2 draw. They lost the replay 3-0 but the thousands of fans who went south that night to Perth sent out a strong message – Inverness could support a Scottish League team.'
  20. Potentially Luis is a good signing. Let's see if Big Harry is offered a contract today.
  21. Disaster. Our only hope to progress in the League Cup this year is that Dumbarton fielded an ineligible player.....
  22. The club are giving him an extra week on trial owing to him having a strain. He was a spectator on Saturday. I believe I read that in the Courier which had this headline ..for subscribers Inverness Caledonian Thistle are delaying decision over trialist By Andrew Henderson - [email protected] Published: 22:30, 13 July 2023 | Updated: 11:22, 14 July 2023
  23. Aaron and Lewis Nicolson were the best yesterday. So far the first three games this season have confirmed the young talent we have within the club. Dumbarton on Tuesday will be tough.
  24. Despite his pedigree, I thought big Harry did well last Saturday. Ross Draper bounced off him in their first challenge. Big Harry certainly looked strong in holding up play and potentially could be a good squad member. We will need to work on his fitness for the Championship and give him lots of heading practice if that is a weakness.
  25. Good luck to Tom. Just shows being a professional footballer is not always glamourous.
