Lewis has retained a smile on his face throughout his injury torment. Being so positive bodes well for him in the future.

Not in the wrong but the question to be asked is how he could have presented his point better to stop hares running. Even that may have been problematic if his source was very reputable and he did not wish to breach a confidence. That said, we are where we are, and on the face of it there are perhaps legal issues being ironed out. With regard to shareholders who haven't so far responded then it may be that case law would back the Administrator's in arguing that they had done everything reasonable to trace and inform all shareholders. Happy to be guided on that.

Pleased for Jake and Ben but especially for Lewis. He has been remarkably positive throughout the period of his injuries and it will be an inspiration to see him back on the park for the Club.

Jake Davidson?

Alan Savage in the P and J today quoted as saying ' “We’ve now reached 95% backing from shareholders (for his offer) and it shows people are getting right behind the club again. “We’re getting closer to the finish line, and I’d encourage the few who have yet to sign their forms (for administrators BDO) to do so in order to allow my deal to happen.” Trust share transfer was key moment The supporters’ trust, who have 730 members, have a shareholding in the football club with enhanced voting rights of approximately 10%. A special general trust meeting was held last week, after which a trust statement said: “We are pleased to confirm that the resolution to transfer the trust’s shareholding in the club to FC Inverness Limited was agreed. “This transfer is subject to the club exiting administration, with the CVA meeting of creditors taking place on May 22. “A lot of work has clearly gone on behind the scenes to resolve the issues that have prolonged administration, relating to the disparate shareholding, the loans and the ownership of the car parks. We hope that everything comes together on May 22 with the CVA being agreed. “Credit must go to Alan Savage for funding the club through the difficult administration period and having the confidence to look to buy it.”

The way Ross County are playing we could be playing them in two years either in League 1 or the Championship.

The Administrator's progress report is now on the Companies House website - https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/SC149117/filing-history

Had Alan Savage not stepped in and used his own money to stabilise or attempt to stabilise the ship, yesterday's result would not have happened. We are still 18 days away from knowing if there are impediments to coming out of administration but the feel good factor after yesterday really augurs well for the future if we finally make it. With regard to teams we might meet next season in Division 1, Peterhead will be tough. Assuming they do not win their appeal, Hamilton in their new home could be interesting. Will Airdrieonians triumph against QOS or Cove or Stenny - I suspect QOS might stop them. Would certainly cut our travel costs. Annan are quite strong but could Elgin finally make some progress up the Leagues? A great local derby if they do. Again, would cut our travel costs. And whilst on the subject of former Highland League sides in the Scottish premier leagues, let's say a prayer for Ross County if they lose to St Johnstone away next week.

Three. Govan kiss for Gardyne.

....plus Keith Bray from Dunfermline and James Nolan from Man U. Not forgetting Connall Ewing from Ross County.

Ben Brannan was part of the Kilmarnock team tonight that beat Dundee in the Scottish Youth Cup Final. It was Ben's cross onto the head of Keith that started our 3-0 win against Arbroath on Saturday. A tremendous loan signing for us.

Dumbarton proved that. Still a very nervy situation for ICT depending on what BDO know behind the scenes.

P and J reporting 'English Premier League and Championship interest in Musa...' This would be a tremendous achievement for him if it materialises.

It will be interesting to see if 'Big Dunc' has the decency to contact the Club and say 'well done....great achievement in the face of adversity. Best wishes for next season.'

To all of our supporters not at the game, this is what happens when a fully grown man gets too excited....

At least Dumbarton are taking Annan seriously...https://dumbartonfootballclub.com/match-preview-dumbarton-vs-annan-athletic-2/

Hobson's choice.

Presumably this process is why exiting Administration probably seems unlikely by the Montrose game? Were you given a timescale by which to respond?

Very important we come out of Administration tomorrow and sign some top class players who are out of contract and needing critical game time. Must play for peanuts.

We do not want the SFA to tell Arbroath to put out a strong team next week although our home form is currently very poor and we will no doubt underestimate them after their Annan thrashing and lose regardless. We are almost certain to assume Dumbarton beat Annan, get that completely wrong and find Wullie's boys overtake us again. Annan will almost certainly win both of their remaining games. Our best hope is that Montrose lose next week and in our final game down near the Basin hope Gardyne scores a genuine own goal for us after 90 minutes of shear tension and no goals.

Squeaky time. Annan will feel very confident after a result like that. Charlie will be gutted.

Annan walking it 2-1.

...Longstaff...

World beating Morecombe, under Ross County's favourite son, heading for the drop.

In 2014/15 we had Ryan Esson, Cammy MacKay and Josh Meekings!!
