12th Man

Good to highlight that, JagXE might be worth checking as its just as important not to take it if its not required. Or keep it in the safe and take a driving licence card instead

Shame to hear he's gone but he's a professional footballer and needs to play football. There's usually a revolving door for players at Dens so he's done well with a 2 year deal. Hope to see him back wearing the red and blue again someday.

Oh no! I've booked flights to Budapest

I can only go by what I've been told by the social club.

Marrlon is the sole supplier and that sounds a bit fishy. I see theres another scarf out as well

Hi Jodie, Thats a good question. The Social Club charge £4 return for a bus ticket, in the middle of winter they also run at a loss if they cant get enough on board, if a game is cancelled before KO the bus company still has to be paid for bus hire and the bus drivers wages. (If the clubs on your route everyones welcome on a matchday) Dows bar run a bus at £3.50 return. ( all welcome ) I was in school with Norry who used to run the Smithton and the bus hire wasnt cheap, it was heavily subsidised by the pub to encourage people to come in and spend their money and also to do a good turn for the community. It ran a good while ago I think it was £3 back then or the price may have incorporated a few beers and a pie. The Blacksmiths have agreed to subsidise the transport but even then bus companies arent cheap and the difference of £30 between bus companies could be the difference of it running or not, some have already priced themselves out of it being viable. So basically I need as much help as possible to help promote it, even if some of ICTfcs media satellites, twitter, CJT, were to help promote it, and prove that there is a true sense of togetherness amongst the club and fans, I maybe even start up a Culloden Caley Jags supporters group to help fund it for a very small joining fee. Even charging £3.50 and the bus being subsidised, I still need 37+ people on a bus to get it to run, if a bus company could knock a bit of their prices then it could run with 28+ on board which would be more workable and would hopefully encourage locals to follow ICT if they can hop on a bus and be taken straight to the stadium. The other option Jodie would be to pay Stagecoach £3.70 for a day ticket and get the bus into town and walk to the stadium. If you are interested in this mode of transport then please get in touch. On this thread or send me a personal message on this forum.

I've got my transport sussed. I'm being delivered by DHL

It certainly brings a smile to you face to think that the 2 Highland league local clubs have brought the Scottish cup home to Inverness. A thought worth savouring. The foundation of both clubs and all the fans who have followed since then, has resulted in over 15,000 seeing our great team lift the cup. Highland league to Europa league, wow. Instead of chasing up the abstainers of years gone by, I would rather look after and appreciate the existing fans young and old of today and the years to come.

Seeing as County play at home on opposing dates. I thought it would make sense to contact them regarding transport arrangements, so if we are stuck I can get the loan of a Massey Ferguson people carrier with driver.

I'm assuming the sequence of home and away is still up in the air. Sounds like a good idea though.

At the minute a few tandems are required and thanks for bumping the topic.

Don't get so sensitive Donny. Graeme isn't famous any more because he's left ICT end off. They are back in training at the end of the week, I heard its got something to do with Shinnie teaching the squad how to play football properly.

The guys a legend and should have won 2 cups if the Ref had noticed foran get pushed over in the box in the league cup. So he's moved on to a club that their fans chucked a cricket ball at him in a final last year. I think you'll find he's respected more in the Highlands than Aberdeen. Don't be so touchy and go and post on your own forums

The Graeme Shinnie chant. Your not famous, your not famous, your not famous any more !

Im surprised the Thistle contingent havent mentioned that there isnt enough black in the strip. Hes been a great player for us over the years and never gives up on the task. Hope he gets his chance playing for Scotland. No rest for the wicked, I believe he will be back at work in a couple of weeks for training.

Just kind off looking for levels of interest at the minute to see if its viable. Who is genuinely interested in frequently using a supporters bus for home matches, departing from The Blacksmiths Culloden an hour before KO. Which will leave enough time to have a pie and a pint in the ICT bar or pop into the club shop etc. and will return 15 mins after KO. I would like to charge £3.50 return a head for all ages, to cover the bus hire if the numbers add up. So if you would like to ditch the car and have a pint or two and travel in good company. Or if you are fed up with getting the bus to town then getting a second bus or walking to the stadium. Or perhaps you just like the idea of hopping on a bus locally and being taken right to the front of the stadium and back. If there are enough supporters, supporting the supporters bus then I plan to get one organised for next season. So please send me a PM if you are genuinely interested in frequently using this mode of transport for home games.

Thats pretty good, so 1st time season ticket holders can get it even cheaper if they buy it before Saturday afternoon and also guarantee being able to purchase their seat for our first European home match.

Does the early bird discount apply to all fans or just the ones renewing?

I pulled in at Ballanluig to spend a penny earlier in the year. There were 2 men standing at the back of a car struggling to get the screw cap off of a container of screenwash, after returning from the cafe these two guys were still trying their best to get it open, thinking to myself these guys are going to be here all day, I took it off them unscrewed it and gave it back. I drove off thinking, Im sure Ive seen that guy somewhere else before. Cant be sure though but he certainly looked familiar.

Baubles

And this one follows

I stuck some brief clips on youtube but this ones better

I was told by a reliable source that there wouldnt be any preseason if we made it into Europe, however at the time I dont think the person thought we would be winning the Scottish cup and getting an extra 2 weeks to prepare. Aberdeen would be good for both parties and playing against Elgin would be good for our fan base through there but apart from that Im assuming other friendlies will be with the reserves and trialists.

No probs
