Shorty

If the quality of the programme would be anything like the match report on the club site for the game then we're not missing much. Reads as if it was written by my 12 year old cousin. Glad we have reports on here, way better.

Our Ross County supporting CEO is only replicating what happens in Dungwall.

At least we won't have to listen to Wilson ripping in to the club on BBC radio now.

That's two board members now who'd be able to name our players, so some progress.

The fact that our board members are bragging to people that they got Gary to sign an agreement not to speak about his departure publicly would make you think it has been done.

Renegade holds everyone and everything in disdane on P&B and social media, especially if he thinks the other big boys will like it and let him hang with them.

When you have a COO, who's no longer COO, but still getting a COO wage and now a CEO to pay for, then the money needs to be found from somewhere

Agree with what you say on Charlie Christie as it's about time he started to justify at least one of the salaries he gets from being at Caley Thistle. It should also be noted that credit for the development of these young players should go to Fiona and Ronnie who do all the work.

Yvonne Crook is married to a relation of the Chairman. Nepotism is back at Caley Stadium.

Surely not?

The only thing Gordy had to tell my uncle this week was that the club are looking to appoint a new president.

I look forward to away days more.

Saw someone post this on twitter

Cut the groundstaff a bit of slack. Hard to prep/fix a pitch when the board won't (can't?) give them funds to hire in the equipment or get the supplies needed. They spend an hour at home on their ride ons a couple of times a year and think they know better. Shambles.

There's been no football, but there has been stuff that could be communicated/reported on. The club have been desperately calling around and holding crisis meetings about the finances. Apparently we need a sizeable six figure injection to see us to the end of the season. The players moved out to Fort George full time on a two week trial. That could have made an interesting feature. Our chairman made a big thing about improving communication, but after the early flurry of promises (few, if any, of which have been delivered) all we've had is posturing.

We should have the exlusive meet and greet that season ticket holders were promised.

I wouldn't expect those benefiting to agree. Would you be happy to see people rattling buckets to pay towards their travel to a concert in Glasgow? It's the same thing. The idea that others should be expected to contribute towards someone elses travel to a football match is utterly ridiculous.

Surely you and the club aren't denying a charity the opportunity to collect funds by allowing a group to rattle buckets to subsidise their own past-time instead? If that's the case, then shame on you guys for asking and shame on the club for allowing it.

It may not matter what they eat after a game. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3023064/Hooray-eat-fast-food-exercise-Burgers-chips-just-good-supplements-workout-recovery-study-claims.html

If people are causing the club and volunteers constant additional work, behaving in a way that disrupts the enjoyment of others, is risking the club being fined and/or meaning there's damage having to be paid for, then I hope they are gone for good. If others who know who the culprits are have been banned and refuse to speak up to help the club and themselves then they can have no complaint. These are not the actions of supporters, they are the total opposite. So good riddance to them. Maybe travel numbers will increase now a disruptive element is gone from them and away matches. Maybe those who use the service would prefer to pay a couple of pound more instead of being held to ransom by what appears to be an increasingly unsavoury group. Whatever way you look at it, dealing with this issue is not a bad thing.

I don't know what the income level is, but if the drop in prize money is any indication then it can't be much these days. The idea needs a freshen up to get people interested. What makes it inaccesible is not being able to sign up online and you can't pay by card. The fact that someone is employed to run it and is not out there actively signing people up is strange. What are they paid to do? Also, I can go into several shops in town and buy a ticket for clach lotto, why not us? Since ICTFC was formed stuff like this has always seemed a bit like jobs for the (Caley) boys.

Instead of making the 50/50 more complicated we should replace the centenary club with something more innovative and readily accessible.

Caleyboy, you claim to be party to very specific information. Did the club tell you officially that they might struggle to honour your wages or is it just unsubstantiated gossip?

Maybe a good point and the reason why people such as Charlie Christie shouldn't be allowed anywhere near running the club. Although it could be argued that he didn't really hack it as a manager, then again the dwindling lotto hints that that's maybe beyond him as well!

Purchasing the shares from the hospice doesn't put a single penny in the club's pocket.
