How about Channel 4. Alex Thomsons SPL.

Unfortunately it may well do!!! One of the negatives of being in the SPL. I just don‘t know.

They arent contracted to this season

Looks like Graham Spears has to eat another hat!!!

Chatted with him at the stadium yestetday. He said he is just about there.

Happy with that. Good to see that it was a sell out for the Kingsmills Suite as well. Didn‘t hang arond for the Q and A‘s though. Anything interesting?

Half time 1~0 ict. Foran penalty. Playing not too bad. On the deck football so far.

There was me thinking there would be music uploaded to the highlights to drown out my conversations and random outbursts!

Since it has upset so many gudgies, it will always be the global energy stadium to me.

There‘s still tickets available for Saturdays hospitality. For anyone going to the game spend that extra fiver and buy a couple of drinks at the kingmills suite as well!

Wish i‘d headed along now! Ten goals on Saturday will make up for it.

I hope theres no trouble tonight. There was a pitch invasion at their game last week. The game was suspended whilst the farmer gathered all the cattle again.

Does anyone have the hospitality details for saturday? Cant find the link and wondering what ive purchased for sn extra fiver lol

Just booked my hospitality ticket for the Coventry nil game. For an extra fiver it is worth it!

Possibly to do with the mess of the pitch afterwards?

Done. Worth completing.

I got to 1.12 before stopping the video. How slow does he talk?! lol

Maybe it's disgruntled Caley Thistle fans not happy with the lack of stripes. In all seriousness this doesn't surprise me. The capacity is 6,000 with 2,000 for away fans and 4,000 for home fans. This would indicate they have sold nearly 3,000 season tickets. Their fans come out of the woodwork when they are doing well - remember the 20,000 'supporters' at Hampden. The SPL is new to them, and it's an exciting new experience. They seem to have a lot of new supporters who only started going to games within the last year (and of course their Scottish Cup Final as well).

No idea but if there's no money then Butcher may have no choice but to go for a cheaper option (if he is cheaper). However, as other folk have said I thought King was excellent at Elgin and exactly the type of defender we were needing at times last season. The fact that Gillingham paid £200,000 for him and their fans stating that they will miss him etc is a positive sign. Hopefully he has got through his injury - if so then he would appear to be a fantastic signing.

Funnily enough we only made 1 substitution against Elgin. Albeit it was an inspired one, with Nick Ross coming off the bench to score. This made me think that possibly the starting line up from the Elgin game will be the starting line up for the first game of the season. Most of us have moaned about not having enough local lads. Well we have quite a few now! I'm pleased to see that a few of the new signings are more experienced in age so we will hopefully have a good blend of experience (albeit not SPL but still good standards) and yoof.

Was there not an agreement at one of the recent meetings that any SPL club that gets into financial difficulties as a result of Newco not being allowed in would be shown leniency? i.e. budgets have been set and if a team go into administration because of espn pulling out (for example) this season they would not be punished? Or was this just a proposal?

Just purchased mine from the club shop. Now I see it up close, I really like it. The black and red stripes are not solid lines, they are all jaggy. From a distance it looks quite plain but up close it is really smart. Here's a fundraising idea - lets smash our record for most tops bought in a season!

Absolutely - just as the ball is leaving his foot. The ones against County make it extra special.

I must say as well, that of all the grounds I go to, Elgin are always the most unwelcoming. Bitchy, bitter comments towards fans and the team the whole match. It's not a nice place to go to. They're still stuck in the past thinking they were watching Caley.

Good idea but we probably wouldn't be able to use the pitch at TCS. A neutral venue such as Grant Street could easily accomodate us though imo.
