Caley Mad In Berks

Must say I would have expected a statement on the club website thanking Gary for his loyalty to us over the past seven seasons. Our best ever signing in my opinion. For him to just go without even a mention seems a poor way to treat our club captain. I did think he might have had a chance of Rice's job, but apparently not. Good luck to him wherever he ends up. Top man.

Yes, an absolutely outstanding performance from Scotland, and richly deserved. One to tell the grandchildren about.

Callum Ferguson scored two more goals last night (7 Jun) for Cascadia in the CONIFA World Cup.

And he scored his first goal for them last night, 3 Jun.

Graeme Shinnie also played, for the full 90 minutes I think.

His overseas experience didn't amount to much. He got fairly little match time whilst he was there, and even that was mostly as sub. Although I quite liked Nick, I can't see him improving our sqaud greatly.

I have always liked Warren. In my opinion he has been the best signing the club made in the last decade or so. My reading of the report indicates to me that the club is treating him entirely fairly. Whatever transpires I wish him all the best for the future. Top man.

I wish her well, and we now seem to be very adequately covered at 'the top end' business wise which I hope will provide long term stability. I'm assuming we are sorted on the football management side too, although I'm not sure how long Brian Rice's contract is for. So, maybe just the playing side to be firmed up on, with one or two suitable new signings, or loanees, and we should be well prepared for the new season, and be able to have a concentrated crack at promotion right from the start. I feel a lot more confident about 2018/19 than I did a year ago. If we can keep the momentum going which we discovered in the last third of last season, there is no reason why we shouldn't do well, despite the Championship now being considerably stronger than it was in 2017/18. Onwards and upwards

The convent at the corner of Southside Road/Culduthel road was indeed a primary school from soon after WW11 right through to the mid/late1950s.. It had two classrooms run by Sister Agnes, for the younger kids, and Sister Mary Frances for the older ones.

A lot of talk about Mutumbo in this thread. I'm not sure what has happened to him. I know he joined RNK Split in Croatia in 2017, but whether he is still with them is unclear. Split's results are easy enough to find but finding their goalscorers in 2018 is extremely difficult. The usual websites I used when I was following exICT scorers more diligently than I do now don't seem to include them. And Mutumbo's Wiki page doesn't appear to have been updated in a year.

Still, I think his (Tansey's) penalty record has been the best that ICT has had in the past decade or so.

In fact, I wouldn't be that worried about any of our former players now at County, taking a penalty against us, apart from Tansey, who was decent.

Yes, I agree with Caman, discipline should be better. We just need Polworth and Warren to keep their cool and it should be miles better than this season. Couldn't be a lot worse mind you. I think it was the main thing which contributed to our dismal first half of the season. So, onwards and upwards!

I was disappointed to see that Cove lost their 2nd leg play off final to Cowdenbeath yesterday, after being ahead at one stage. I would have liked to see another HL team make it to the higher level. It looks as if Cove not only lost the match, but also their cool, having 3 players sent off in the 8 minutes of injury time which was played!

Or, as we used to say in my youth, "It's no there noo, it must ae shifted"!

Don't know if Grant is past his best now if Falkirk are releasing him. He was certainly a thorn in our side in our famous cup final victory.

Great that we've taken it to the last day. Too much to expect that Dumbarton can do us a massive favour., but.......... "the fat lady has not yet sung"..... So I live in hope. What pity we could not have performed like this earlier in the season.

What a sickener. Bad luck lads. Now we really do need the miracle of all miracles

Good for you Mike. Enjoy. I' m currently on hols overseas, otherwise I would have joined you for this one.

Well, how great was that? Dumbarton must be sick of the sight of us after these last few weeks. But how ironic it would be if they could do us a massive favour by beating Dunfrmline in their final game. Assuming we beat the Pars on Sat, that would allow us a slip up in one of our last two games. but better of course for us just to win all three of our last games The dream lives on

His new club, ACS Sepsi, don't seem to agree. He hardly gets a game, even as sub. unless he has a long term injury, of course.

The dream lives on. I'm actually out of the country for the next two weeks, but you can be sure I'll be following our progress online. Vital that we win the next two and then we have a fighting chance. Who would have thought a few weeks ago, that we'd even be daring to dream like this? Best of luck lads.
