Well deserved and hopefully more to follow

Top Six, Like your response but am reasonably serious to the extent of making a suggestion - nothing more. Have taken up Ian Anderson's programme on the internet and listened to song again by a Howard Swindles - Fireside sessions and have enjoyed it even more. The verses make it and I assure you it is worth a listen. It is about 19 minutes into programme for anyone interested. I am eagerly waiting your own suggestion for a song.

On my way back to Caithness after that wonderful match last night I was listening to the Ian Anderson programme (after 10pm) on Radio Scotland when he played this song that had been sent to him (I think) written and sung by someone from the Inverness are (I assume). It was brilliant but simple. The tune was a slightly different version to 'when the saints' but it could easily be suing to that tune which I imagine everyone knows. There must have been 6-8 verses including references to that wonderful Celtic game including the famous headline; references to Yogi and Kenny Cameron; even references to Rangers and how now that they were playing in the lower divisions that was not very funny because we were loosing lots of money. The chorus was Oh Inverness, Oh Inverness, Oh Inverness we all love you We have a bridge and we have a castle Oh Inverness we all love you The 'Oh Inverness' part can be substituted by 'Oh ICT, Oh ICT, and it fits in just as well. I realise that the euphoria I experienced last night may have carried me away a little bit but I really thought it was a brilliant but simple song and would not need to be confined to the cup final.

There is obviously something wrong with my lap-top as it certainly does not show reports from all the U'20 games. I was merely praising those who attend such matches and are prepared to submit some info for those who are unable to attend these matches but I would still like the club site to provide more info in relation to the U'20's.

Well done indeed - if anyone was at the game is it possible for a brief report along with the team. For people living outwith the immediate Inverness area and not able to attend these matches it is very pleasing to not only see the results but find out the team and performance of fringe and youth players - which unfortunately the official club site rarely does

I have been an admirer of Devine since he arrived but I think his inexperience showed when he came on Sunday as for 2 if not 3 of the goals he was caught out of position probably by the speed of the Celtic attack and with just having come on to the pitch. Prior to that Warren and Meekings had been keeping a fairly tight rein on the Celtic players. I also felt that it was a risk playing Warren but the P&J report states it was an ankle injury and Butcher is quoted confirming it ia an ankle injury and saying it was caused in a clash with Meekings.

I have just seen on Sky news that Andrew Shinnie is one of the 4 nominees for Player of the year - great news not only for him but for the club as well

Acording to P&J today Liam Polworth scored both goals - one a free kick just before half time and then a penalty after Shane was brought down in the box. Hamilton had taken the lead twice. It also reports that Chris Hogg continued his comeback with an impressive performance

I hope Shane doesn't look at this site - if he does it really must do something for his confidence. I seem to have seen plenty others hammering high and wide and missing 'sitters'

Although team not known I can tell you that the scorers were - Calum Ferguson (2); Liam Polworth (2); Ryan Christie (Pen) and Dachi Khutsishvili. A good result

Just heard on MFR that the Uner 20's defeated St Mirren 3-2 today

Team line up and scorers (if any) would be a start. I really don't think that a report (brief if necessary) is too much to ask for and it would keep people liably informed of how the uner 20's are performing. Reports used to appear on the club site of the under 19's and reserves etc - even details of how some of the other youth teams were getting on.

I belive that the under 20's drew 0-0 with Hibs down in Edinburgh yesterday. Anyone got any idea of the team or how they played. I wish the Club woudl put a report of these games on their site.

Having attended the game it certainly looked to me as if Hospitlaity was in place as usual - numbers may have been down but it appeared to be functioning as normal.

I would agree with Huisdean - There were other teams who were equally as poor as us over the course of the season and yet they have managed to increase ticket sales. I would have thought we would have at least managed to stay about the same level as last season.

Positive from the match tonight must be that Garry Warren played for an hour and was steady and reliable throughout although he did seem to be limping slightly as he left the pitch. Gavin Morrison also gave a steady performance and could easily have scored a couple. While Jason Oswell was lively thoughout the match he missed a couple of golden chances and both Nick Ross and Martin Laing also had a good opportunity to score. Calum Ferguson came on towards the end and looked very lively. The worrying aspect in my opinion was the amou8nt of misplaced passes through out the match.

Has anyone any idea how this tournament went - disappointed that official club site, although advertsing that event was taking place, have not provided any details of results etc

Match apparently arranged against Wick Academy in Wick on 25 July at 7.30pm

Reference the suggestions of looking at Highland Leage players I would agree and have suggested this before. In addition to attending ICT matches I also go to some HL matches and I think there are some young players who could be given a chance. For the info of Alex MacLeod Shane certainly did play for Wick Academy and spent practically a whole season playing in the 1st team as a 16 year old.

With regard to the post from 'giveme a ccccc' in relation to HL players I made such a suggestion at a Supporters Trust Q&A session a few years ago (using Richie Hart as an example) and I was practically laughed out of the building by the panel. I still believe that an odd useful player could be picked up from HL teams.

I see that Hearts have a couple of 19 year olds who have just been released from Real Madrid (came through their youth system) on a weeks trial. One is a goalkeeper and the other a centre forward. If they are any good (and should be) I would imagine they would have a better chance of first team football with ICT rather than Hearts.

According to the Sun Swansea are very interested and it is claimed they are talking of 1 million while DU want double that!!!!!

Just saw on Sky Sports that appeal has been rejected

Final score was 1-4. A Shinnie penalty after Shane was brought down just as it looked as if he would score. Shane captain for the night and was impressive throughout. Kenny Gillet player for most of the match without any obvious problems. Billy McKay also played but on that showing does not look as if he is the answer to our goal scoring needs. A vergy good fist half showing from young Ryan Christie.
