  1. Jhesus do you think that the rocket attack on the Air Malaysia plane will further delay the unveiling of the new strip. It is just like waiting for a Subway to be cut, filled and toasted.

    And the end result is just as depressing :-SS

    Edited to add:

    I meant as the rocket attack not the new strip

  2. Is it any wonder that we see so many kids and and adults too for that matter wearing the latest replica tops of the Old firm, Aberdeen and County in Inverness

    Ok it could be argued that there will always be an element of this but the club are doing themselves no favours whatsoever in this delay and it will effect sales or worse still make some kids by other teams kits.A one off delay I could accept but this is a recurring problem and needs addressed

    Dougal

    Foe once a comment from Dougal I agree with. ;-)

  3. We may have known the design but did we know the sponsors?

    I think that one of the problems with dealing with any kit supplier is the size of order. How many shirts are we likely to sell? 1000, 1500. Compare that with the figures supplied to the bigger clubs, both in UK and Europe, and we probably come in at the bottom end of the pecking order for printing.

    Kilmarnock haven't got there new kit yet either although they are taking orders in advance.

    We've known our sponsors for weeks now and as I said previously it should just of been a case of adding it to an already designed strip your argument is once more invalid

  4. In light of wars in the middle east and planes being shot down over the Ukraine is this really such a big deal. New strips will come when they come and when that happens we can all choose to buy or not buy.

    Possibly the strangest comparison ever

    Whats wrong with at least wanting a preview of the new strip especially when you have kids chompin at the bit to get it

    After all they, not you or I are the future of the club are they not?

    If their interest wanes then there is no future

  5. Im not on that particular fb page, however me an quite a few boys who were aged between 11-15 used to go to telford st in the Howden end and we still support ICTFC now, go to as many games as possible and furthermore have introduced our kids to the pride of the highlands and they don't support anyone other than ICT

    I still think our success at least crowd wise is about 10ish years away

    Now that is spot on. And the success has to be maintained. Are any of your mates influenced by their oldies to follow other teams ?

    Rather bizarrely no,

    Most of us convinced our ol fellas to go to the Caley Thistle games from the start and most of them only have one team now

    With the exception of one mind who still holds a torch for Hearts lol

  7. Is that for real. Is it our official outfit for the games. Looks like an advert for Brodie countryfare.

    It's what we'll all have to wear if the yes vote wins the referendum !

    What a complete load of drivel

    Anyway independence thread for that

  8. If the additional sponsor was scrapped just so that the shirts could go on sale 4 weeks earlier. How may extra would we have to sell to cover the loss in revenue. 2000 additional shirts maybe.

    Yeah because it takes weeks to print a sponsors logo on a strip !

    If we still used screen printed or stick on sponsor logos then you might have a point.

    He has got a point

    .errea know we gonna put a sponsor on the neck

    Said sponsor announced weeks ago

    Errea put it on neck of already designed strip

    Strip released or at the very least out for preview to get fans appetite up

  9. CaleyD you clearly dislike Dougal intensely but in this instance he makes an entirely valid point. The annual shambles surrounding the release of our strips is frankly an embarrassment to both the club and Errea. Ymip jr has given up asking when it's coming out and has splashed his cash elsewhere. Every club in the league releases their strip ahead of the school holidays and pre-season. Clearly the commercial department (sic) at ICT know better. Defending the indefensible.....as per.

    Not true...last I checked less than half the teams had new shirts for sale.

    No secret that our shirts were held up this season due to late change in sponsor/s. Not ideal, but it is what it is and I imagine most fans accept the importance of those deals to the clubs finances.

    Those who choose to ignore the info to hand (not just on this subject) and constantly try to stir the **** are, IMO, Trolls...and should be dealt with as such under the forums guidelines.

    Not true

    Currently

    Kilmarnock who are also with errea

    Aberdeen

    Dundee utd

    County

    Celtic

    St mirren

    St Johnstone

    And Patrick have all released theirs makin us in the heavy minority of clubs to not even preview ours

    Now I stop short of statements like it's pathetic but it's not great either

  10. Don't rate the trialist much tbh,

    First half stand out was Tansey, who was commanding the midfield superbly,

    Second half the team looked a lot more familiar with a good performance from several

    One point though was the amount of opportunities to shoot that were instead passed was a slightly worrying reminder of last half of last season all in all a good wee workout to get pre-season started

  11. Ouch

    Still can't work out who Douglas supports tho

    I guess after personal abuse like this tho the banhammer will be out. :-D

    I think I've cottoned on to who Dougal is actually. I'm not going to name names, but once you realise who it is, it becomes fairly obvious.

    Is Dougal,,,,,Laurence?

    Can't be surely but they are both entirely similar posters :-/

  12. Ouch

    Oh come on at least a clue would be good lol :-D

  13. Mikey Noble is basically reiterating what I've been saying for years and the usual suspects can't handle it despite it being so glaringly obviously

    So the likes of AC and Inter, Real and Athletico, United and City, Liverpool and Everton etc etc are all doing it wrong seeing their fans are from the same community

    As the years pass Bannerman just gets more and more embarrassing, my advice would be for him to stick to commenting on the commonwealth games , something he allegedly knows something about although that's probably debatable as well

    He doesn't know what it's like to be a football supporter and he NEVER will hence why he comes across as a pathetic little weasel

    Dougal

    Ouch

  14. Would love to have Hayes back but cant see it. Hayes is being used as a 'model' for the new Aberdeen kit this season so would have thought it would be unlikely they would use him to promote their new strip if he were to be leaving.

    Incidentally I think the Shinnie link with Aberdeen is pure and utter fantasy. Our chairman has already said it would take a very special offer to let any of our players move this summer. £30k is an absolute insult as far as Shinnies current ability and potential go

    And if ya read all the pi$h on the thread Billy goin too as a pair 150k. :-D :-D ma sides

  15. Some of those players would be rather out of our budget I'm afraid and I wouldn't touch El Hadji Diouf with a ten foot pole!

    We should sign the other Danny Devine though, just for the giggles!

    2 Danny Devine's there's only 2 Danny Devine's lol

  16. You obviously missed the part of the article on the club website where it states that it's the Subway brand in Scotland that is the sponsor and not a local franchisee.

    If you have any concerns or questions in regards to what the deal is worth and whether or not it matches up to the previous deal then you should call the club and ask for a meeting with the Chairman.....or you can continue to be a spineless coward who prefers to hide behind an alias having a pop at supporters, sponsors, the club and it's staff.

    So can we take it your real name is CaleyD then and that's not an alias.

  17. I've not branded a single person a hypocrite for voicing their opinion on the chants...only those who expect others to make official approaches to the club/CJT on their behalf when it would have taken the same effort to write an email directly.

    In regards to my criticising (or not) the chants people are accused of partaking in. It's not a discussion I wish to get into (publicly) with anyone posting on this thread.

    CTO (the forum side) has never been an official communication channel for the club....so those posting on here are NOT (directly at least) giving those at the club their views.

    In regards to people being lazy hypocrites....they should let their conscience be their guide. Some people who have posted on this thread have (and still do) lend extra support in a constructive manner, others are not in a position to do so...none of them have tried to twist, or appear to have taken offence with, anything I have said.

    Wow this is not goin to well eh
