dougal

I decided last night not to log in as I feared being banned due to the rage I was in I'm still seething but feel I can now get my point over without using to many expletives Was last nights result the worst result in the clubs history it must be up there in the top two or three if not? Let's not kid ourselves we were beaten by one of the poorer first division 1 sides who are all part timers if I'm not mistaken, guys who probably are posties, plumbers, bakers , traffic wardens,kfc employees and so on Whether Butcher has lost the dressing room I certainly am not going to speculate but there is something seriously wrong with either team morale or the tactics being deployed The league table doesn't lie and only highlights the crisis we now find ourselves in Worst result in 17 years ? Yes I sadly think it probably is dougal

Is that the tiny wee place where only one or two could get in at a time? If so i've never purchased from there before take it you rate the doner's in their Luke? They would have to be good to beat Max's in my book dougal

You could sign them in to the Portland Club, dougal. I hate to disappoint you danger but i'm not a member of said establishment Not a post of yours go by without reference to the Orcs take it you will be travelling to the game tomorrow from the Portland snug bar on the True Blue bus??? Anyway back on topic I recommend a doner kebab from Max's at the end of nights drinking in Inverness. After a few pints it goes down a treat with me dougal

A very lame attempt at fishing Alex Having said that you lot weren't called fools from up the hill for nothing dougal

Karaoke in MacCallums is a must, good ole highland culture dougal

I agree this would have been a far more accurate headline but lets face it journalists are good at twisting headlines From what I hear you weren't too bad at it yourself specifically at the time of the merger dougal

Maybe, but ?12 to sit in the Family Section, an area designed and priced for Children/Families (the clue is in the name), is pretty decent. It's a bit like complaining that First Class cost so much more when you have the option of a cheaper seat in Standard Class which, at the end of the day, serves the same purpose of getting you from point A to point B. Sweep it under the carpet as much as you want but the problem of ripping off the young fans won't suddenly go away ICT should be charging youngsters ?12 no matter where they sit in the ground and I include the south stand too for away supporters Encourage the youngsters not turn them away by inflated ticket prices dougal

Indeed I agree a simple short letter would have been a nice token and would have been if anything good PR by the club Maybe this and the reducing of costs for match day concession tickets(see other thread) should be now looked or at the very least reviewed Anyway highlighting these subjects on here can't do any harm maybe the supporters trust or whatever they call themselves these days can put them to the club at their next meeting dougal

I've been reading Pie & Bovril tonight and the Orcs are livid about the cost of concession tickets for the game on Saturday I've got to admit they do appear hugely excessive, surely the club should be reducing the costs of concession tickets as these are the fans of the future ?25 for a child to sit in the main stand is an absolute disgrace in my book http://ictfc.com/tickets/ticket-prices discuss dougal

I think having a mascot is really good for the younger fans especially at a small family friendly club like ourselves You need someone who acts and behaves like a clown and absolutely everyone laughs at rather than laughs with I'd say Chorley would be a good starting recruiting base dougal

FYI I have watched football over many years throughout the UK mostly England I admit but also a fair number of countries in Europe so I know when I see a dud or a player thats not up to it I'm therefor as qualified to comment on Tade as any yokel I admit its early days yet for Tade and I genuinely do hope he makes a name for himself up here in the Highlands but my initial thoughts on footballers are normally fairly accurate however I'll be the first to put my hand up and apologise if he proves me wrong Good luck Gregory dougal

Oh dear!!!! As far as I can make out both the above terms have been banned from Pie & Bovril so why not here? Lets hope Alex Salmond and his government eradicate this so called culture problems in the future and make Scotland a more pleasant land to live in dougal

Good news and the best of luck to him Maybe we should learn the words to the land of my fathers I reckon it would be a great song for ICT to walk out to at the Caledonian stadium, not sure the invernessian accent could master the welsh dialect though http://www.youtube.c...feature=related I wonder if Owain is any relation of Mr Jones http://www.youtube.c...h?v=fDWk0BCeblQ dougal

If I was Terry i'd fine him a weeks wages for his part in the disallowed goal debcale, he single handedly lost the club two points yesterday :irritated: I thought the club had learnt their lesson by signing lower league strikers(Barrowman) but it appears sadly not dougal

I think its worth pointing out that one Terrence Butcher made a very successful playing career out of hoofing the ball up the park with that trusted left foot of his so you can maybe see why our defenders deploy such tactics from time to time dougal

No I was off shore last week renegade so never saw the game, take it you rate him then? dougal

I wasn't at the game yesterday but saw the game on the garlic channel From what I saw I now have real concerns about this signing Is this guy a striker? It's not clear by yesterdays performance where or what position he was supposed to be deployed as!! You only have to read the views on pie and bovril from other clubs supporters to suss out that this guy isn't an Spl standard player Discuss dougal

Maybe one of the mods could please change the offensive word used by the OP in the title thread We don't need this old filth tit for tat point scoring terminology on this site Cheers dougal

Read my post again I did not call all ICT fans cretins i referred to the ones that drink far too much, cause bother and get ejected from the various stadiums around Scotland as cretins Maybe you should get the Mrs to explain other peoples posts like she does on all other football matters before you even think replying in future Oh and what irony IHE accusing me of being an Orc when in fact he is the biggest Septic on this site Just for the record I despise both sides of the Old firm equally dougal So, what you are saying Dougal is that, persons who suffer from congenital hypothyroidism (cretinism) drink too much, cause bother and get ejected from various stadiums. My wife, who supports persons with learning difficulties, takes serious offence at those unjust and unfounded comparisons. Thats not what i'm saying and you know it Alex On hindsight I shouldnt have used the word cretin without really knowing what the term meant so I apologise and I'll delete my posts Sorry dougal

I personally think the board should wait at least 3-6 months before entering into discussions with Terry and Mo about contract extensions We basically have a new untried team out their this season so surely waiting to see how good they gel should be the priority ,then providing the club is progressing sit down and talk money dougal

IMO I doubt Ross will play right back this season as he doesn't have the legs anymore With Grants departure the pressure on Ross in the middle of defence is going to be a huge and I have an awful feeling about the whole situation You only have to look at the Falkirk game when we got relegated three years ago to see how off the pace the big man was even back then Every one of us know we desperately need a new centre half so the question I ask is why doesn't Butcher??? dougal

Women's football I'd have been targeted by the red dot brigade had I started this thread slating a woman official so its only fair you get one from me dougal

I rarely agree with anything you say Ender but the Grant Munro situation makes me mighty angry and I believe Butcher has possibly made the biggest mistake of his ICT managerial career to date In my opinion Grant should still be at the club and in the starting line up every week All i will say is that its a big risk Terry is taking to treat the local hero so shabbily dougal

I'd hazard a guess that the pitch is waterlogged I see you still start amazingly interesting threads dougal

If I had to guess Cooking sherry would be your tipple judging by your previous posts :biggrin: dougal
