I would hope so too,now this is the kind of project the Supporters trust should be getting involved in IMO I think the kind of seating/terracing in that photo would be ideal for both the north and south stands at TCS, we must try and get some atmosphere at our home games and I can see this helping so fair play to the Septics for approaching the SPL with this proposal You will no doubt still get some folk against this but we could move the wifees and old yins to the main stand so it keeps everyone happy dougal

100% approval from me Yngwie IMO one of the few positives so far this season, I just find it surprising its taken the club this long to sort out the event, think most of us realise that the departure of Grant Munro is the main reason why we now have the worst defence in the SPL I'll certainly attend the game but I will give the dinner a miss I don't want to be bored to tears by members of the ICT supporters trust All the best Grant and Russel you both fully deserve the recognition dougal

Golobart going back to Wigan would certainly be a positive IMO , I know that sounds harsh but I honestly don't think the lad is ready for the frantic style of Scottish football his match losing mistakes in the few games he's played already back this up I'm afraid there will be more of these howlers before he adapts to the Scottish game, having said that what could he have possibly learnt at Wigan which is a rugby league town? He's certainly won't have learnt anything from Gary Caldwell other than how NOT to defend, maybe thats the style we are seeing? dougal

The more I hear about the supporters trust the more it seems to resemble the WRVS are both organisations connected in some way? dougal

Poor first half reasonably good second half Think everyone including myself would have taken a draw before kick off so a point gained in my book Jury still out on Tade though despite his goal, his lack of ball control scares me at times dougal

Sadly this now seems to be the norm at TCS We definitely seem to have a lot more wifees or tartan rug brigaders in our support than other teams in the SPL the question is why??? You only have to read the North of Scotland Cup final thread, the ICT supporters club seem to have been baking cakes at half time I know i'm repeating myself here but stadium location and layout is also a main factor in my opinion, an enclosed stadium with four sides is far better at keeping the atmosphere within the ground Atmosphere will never improve while we remain at the dump dougal

Far too early to give my opinion yet sooz, I'll wait till the run up to Xmas before i'll comment that way they should all have played more regularly and settled in My real worry is the majority are inexperienced kids while we punted experience(Munro and Duncan) dougal

Fair enough Tug, green dot right back at you dougal

You are starting to sound like a Septic fan Alex I'm certainly no fan of said referee but its wrong of you to say he has some sort of anti-ICT agenda dougal

I haven't done a Poll for absolutely ages so here goes Not sure what forum this should be in so mods feel free to move it if you want but it effects all ICT fans on here IMO Whats everyone's thoughts on this reputation voting system on this site? IMO it seems to have been shamelessly stolen from Pie & Bovril but I stand corrected if i'm wrong What I want to know is what exactly is the point of the whole thing? As far as I can see certain users(me included) get targeted by the red dot brigade, while certain other users and their amigo's just green dot each other no matter what they post Surely it would be better for each individual poster to see who is dishing out the green or red dots, that way there is no secrecy and underhand voting I've voted option 3, keep it going but change it so it lets us see who is green or red dotting each post The mods certainly seem to be able to see who dishes out the green and red dots so why can't we???? Thoughts dougal

I very rarely agree with anything you have to say but you are spot on here Green dot for you 12th Man The longman site is the worst possible site to have a football stadium, I just can't understand how ICT got away with it due to its close proximity to the A9 and the crazy congestion it causes on match days dougal

Bit of advice sotonict I wouldn't put your mobile number up on here, ask folk to pm you that way you hopefully won't get targeted by weirdo's I'd steer clear of IHE if I was you as there is always a danger you'll either not get into the ground or get ejected not long after the game starts Get a ticket for the main stand as there are a lot more knowledgeable football fans in there like myself dougal

Don't see whats remotely positive?? All you Bannerman,CaleyD and that strange finger fella have achieved is to stir/wind up some of the pre-merger fans and open up some of the wounds that were healing quite nicely till this publication was put on line I tip my hat off to you if this was a fishing trip though as you've certainly had a few bites I've ran out of red dots but you'll be getting one tomorrow when I log back on dougal

Since when did Stevie Tosh or Robbie Williamson become ICT legends????? seems a bit of false advertising went on I attended Grant Street and thoroughly enjoyed the football despite Clach getting turned over 1-4 by a very good Turriff Utd side I wish Clach all the best for the remainder of the season, some very good young players in their team and I will definitely make the effort to see them more this season dougal

I agree the black sleeves look ridiculous It would have looked slightly better without the black but its too like an Orc away strip for me dougal

In my opinion "Against all odds" always seemed a strange title to me, more fitting would have been "Pro-merger Propaganda" Again IMO a very one sided view of the merger written by a self-confessed pro-merger author, wouldn't it have been great had the Caley and Thistle fanzine guys got together to give their sides of the story, at least then we could have both sides to mull over??? Anyway I'm off to download the new chapter lets hope theres not too many spelling mistakes dougal

Aye, grouse shooteen is all perfectly ordinary guys wi' Unvarness ocksents kumeen off shift at the Sports Centre or a factory doon the Longman an' driveen up the moors in their Ford Fiestas an' they're dooeen it all in the name of konsarvayshun and employeen locals with not the slightest hint of enjoyment at blasting away like maniacs at defenceless birds. And of course - not a toff in sight..... IMO you should stick to the Athletics Bannerman and leave the football and grouse shooting to the ones who have much more an in depth knowledge off both sports Anyway is it no time you changed that shirt and tie that you wear week in/ week out in the local rag :biggrin: dougal

A bit of an own goal by ICT hosting this match on Friday night as its a kick in the teeth to Clachnacuddin who are playing Turriff Utd at the very same time We all know Clachs situation regarding money and there struggle to get punters through the turnstiles therefore this fixture should have been moved to a more suitable date They may well be legends but I won't be there as I will be going to Grant Street dougal

Just back in from the pub No negativity from me tonight, I thoroughly enjoyed the game today, entertainment was served up by both teams, I thought it was a very open game and we deserved the three points I've been one of Tade's critics but i'm genuinely delighted he got his first goal despite a couple of typical Tade comedy moments, hopefully the lad's confidence will now grow seeing he's hit the back of the net Not read any of this thread so has anyone heard how Foran is and what extent the injury is? dougal

Downstairs of the Market bar would your best bet you should be able to find a friend in there with similar banter Tha Leejun!!! (aka God's Waiting Room) Saturday nights even more so. Even I really feel quite young when I go in there. I can only assume you got your in depth knowledge of grouse shooting while in said establishment 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
