These 1 year contracts are absolutely about managing costs and budgeting.

Tell you something. Never thought I would see the day when the official ICTFC would be used to take a shot at the administrators of the club. Can I throw some money in too Savage? Would love to own a bit of the club. -
Does anyone have the inside scoop if the black kit is ever going to be back in stock at sizes most people can wear?

Really good to hear non-playing staff are being retained. I would be interested to understand who the players that have been made redundant are -

Whilst I am not clued in on whether or not a Football Club in administration has different rules to a company in administration (or looking to cut costs, aka, make redundancies), whilst the larger earners are the ones that you typically do look at removing from the books, you cannot be made redundant during the process solely based on how much you earn. I think it's important to remember at this time that whilst we may be fans of the club, there are actual employees whose livelihood are under threat here and are entering a difficult period of uncertainty, stress and worry. I do hope that all staff, and players, who lose their jobs during this event are taken care of, offered support, and provided a respectful package. -

Woah woah woah Scotty. I know this is your site and all, but you can't be out hear calling Major League a crap movie. Anymore of that nonsense and I'll be having to come to Toronto to have some stern words. Some very stern words. -
What is the feasibility of actually removing the North and South stands and returning the West stand to terracing? Does anyone know? Back in the days pre-premiership, I loved being in the West Stand, it was my favourite place to be.

I am pretty sure any chance that we had of moving to a better stadium was scuppered by Tesco (and the councilors who were in Tesco's pocket) when Asda were looking to buy the site and build us a new stadium as part of the deal, akin to what happened with St Mirren in Paisley. However, I would argue that the location of the stadium is a plus for us, the views are great, ok it can be a bit cold, but anyone who has sat in the away section at Pittodrie can attest to how cold that can really get.

You can't make people redundant, then hire people in those same positions.

Club Statement "The board can confirm that the time for any interested parties to offer for the Club has come and gone. We are currently looking at our position and will make an announcement in the coming days" More purgatory I guess. -

I assume that we are going to be getting some news today either way? -
We got Livingston away
-
Yeah really hoping they restock this away shirt. Best one they have had since the Black and Red and we all know how they bungled the stock for that one.

Holy ****. I've just seen this. Johndo was one of the first of the ICT fans I went to an away game with. He couldn’t have been a kinder or funnier man, and treated me like I’d been going to away games with him forever. Every memory I have of him is positive and happy, from Ayr away in The Ship when we went back up, to having the daftest Voddy and Coke crawl from Easter Road back to Waverly. If any of his family are on here, my heartfelt condolences go out to each and everyone of you. The (Immortal) Howden Ender will never die

Big Tokes definitely making his pitch for the job when it becomes available.

It's great that Aaron has had his surgery, but looking at the comments from other professional football players on his post tells you all you need to know. The reputational damage that has been done is going to take years to overcome.
-
Ah ok, And if by magic, the FA have just posted a warning about Flags for England fans.
-
I find it strange they won't let you in the stadium with it, I've seen plenty bigger flags on the TV.

Wow this strip is a stinker.

Season Tickets + Resignation Confirmation
EvilWhiteStripe replied to EvilWhiteStripe's topic in Caley Thistle
I don't think Ross County are a fair comparison for ST prices considering that Roy just pumps money into the club they can afford to have cheaper season tickets. -
https://ictfc.com/club-statement-2024-25-season-tickets/ I will wait to see what is happening with our club and confirmation that Gardiner has left the building before I renew Well THAT Club Statement didn't say an awful lot! Scott Gardiner still in residence. We'll have lots of Inverness/Highland-based players this coming season. Now please cough up and buy your season tickets. And some Puma gear! No actual confirmation that we'll be solvent next season. But that's not really any of our business, is it? Yet again we're told nothing, but expected to cough up for season tickets without knowing; if we're entering adminstration, which players have been offered new contracts, which players have left, is the manager being kept on, when is the ceo actually leaving the building, who are these Inverness/Highland based players you mention. . . . ? The level of contempt the club has for its fans is unbelievable! I think it’s more the case that there’s not a lot they can say just now whilst discussions and deals are still in progress. “hugely positive discussions currently ongoing with a number of potential new investors” I don't think they would be selling season tickets if they did not expect to be solvent, as that would be a serious matter the directors - wrongful trading under the Insolvency Act. Anyone else think that pricing structure is bizarre? Compare to last year's prices. Main stand prices lowered especially over 65s in main stand whilst almost the same for North? Lowering the old 16-21 ( formally 16-25) even further looks like SG revenge on Young team to me. At last a statement. However, in terms of due diligence, I think supporters need some answers before we invest. 1. Can we see the accounts for 2022/23 please? 2. Who has currently signed for the Club. 3. What is our Management Team? I would respectfully also ask if a Trust Member will be on the new board even if new owners emerge. Not a detailed statement but I’m just happy that it sounds like we will have a team to support next season Would I be right in saying that if you did buy a season ticket ( once more detail comes out ) using a credit card then you would be able to get a refund if anything does go t*ts up ? . Doubt it . I’ll be holding off for now and see when the ceo resign date is before parting with anything . What a crap statement to put out after all this time No I think he/she is correct. You are protected if credit card and over £100. They will take our money for season tickets and then hit us with news that Scott Gardiner staying on in a different role. Article today regarding similar situation at Reading FC. Quote below from their supporters trust, STAR. “We recommend that anyone purchasing a season ticket considers using a credit card for added security. “If, for any reason, the Club cannot fulfil the season ticket, paying by credit card ensures that you would receive a refund (pro rata) under section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974.” Statement issued by our Supporters Trust asking fans to renew season tickets. They seem to have been able to obtain more information than is in the public domain in arriving at that stance.
