  1. First Professional, First International, and a local boy. One of our best players from what I've heard
  2. Legend- Alan Hercher or Richard Hastings, maybe Pele, but I don't think Pele would come under the rules... Memorable Moment(s)- David Raven Semi Final, SuperCaleyGoBallistic, Europa League Debut
  3. Maybe it would make sense for the club to open up a shop in one of the many empty lots around town, the high street is usually packed with Tourists, so it'd get us exposure, as, an industrial estate, is hardly a tourist hot spot. We've got a similar situation to Stoke City, both of our stadiums are based in an industrial estate next to a major road. However, they have a club shop in the shopping centre, and when I visited, it was packed (not the store, but it did have reasonable foot traffic) and there was quite a fair amount of tourists. Not sure if it was cos they were a Premier League club or not, but having a club shop away from the stadium, is going to give us more exposure. Hell, Celtic had a club shop in the Eastgate, and we had a wee corner of the Victorian Market for a little over a month when we made the Scottish Cup Final...
  4. Nope. Was the First Round. Clach are also at Home next Saturday in their replay against Nairn, in case you'd (god knows why) rather an early Scottish Cup fix over a 3rd vs 10th clash. And for further info, the Second Round Draw is tomorrow night at 8 or 9 (According to the Fort William Twitter) on Sportscene. So, there's a chance our weans can be facing up against our other training team, Elgin. Clash of the Caley, if you will...
  5. Jokes on them, they can't play. Be sending them packing. Beat Arbroaths 36 goals... Also, we start in the Fourth Round this year.
  6. Yes and no. Their attacks weren't very edge of seat attacks. But we were just gash towards the end of the second half. WHY THE FECK DIDNT ROONEY JUST SHOOOOOT MUN.
  7. ...Five... Christ on a bike, have we given the Fort other things as well as our weans?
  8. Is it too much to say I hope we thrash them like Morton?
  9. Get Auntie Wilma in to back us with her half. ?
  10. What even happened to that 10k or so that went to the finals in 2015 and then the near sell out game vs Astra? I'd say barely over a few hundred still actually go, and we've brought in some new people since, it's shocking how many we've lost. (I assume) they've all gone off to C*unty when we went down (as we still had packed stands for most games, and not relying on the away support to raise it past 2000) and they were just bandwaggoning. As they have done for most of our big milestones (this year's Scottish Cup Semis comes to mind, haven't seen most of the support since) But I think it's more down to our lateness in getting a League side here. It took a little over 100 years to get a side established, whilst Aberdeen (the "local" SFL side) had the backing of the invernesians who wanted professional league football. The only way to win these people back is pushing for promotion, then work on becoming an established Premiership side, and continuously push for a top 5 finish, and if we're feeling daring, pushing for Europe. Otherwise, we'll be stuck with a dwindling attendance...
  11. I mean, at least Elgin is a shorter distance, plus relatively cheap Rail Fare...
  12. I mean, what can you do, I doubt all these lads are full time, so they'll have part time jobs back in the Sneck, and their ICT wages are probably only a few hundred a week. So, I see it's only fair (at their age anyway, as they're pretty much still kids) that it's down to mum and dad as to whether they can go or not, only other solution is for ICT to fund accommodation for while they're there, which I doubt will happen due to our financial status...plus the fact it's getting darker sooner and it's a 60 odd mile drive which even at the best of times is pretty bad, it's going to go wrong sooner or later as they'll be going out at whatever o'clock in the morning and then trying to get back the same night, then they'll be out again however many days later for training. It's a back and forth cycle that will wear them out constantly, they'll be tired after the match or training, and on such a boring seemingly endless road, it's not going to end well, especially at night...
  13. Sod knows where I heard it, but apparently Alan Savage is making a return as a shareholder...
  14. Fecks sake, Charlie
  15. Just takes the biscuit, doesn't it...
  16. Will this be a regular for Away Days?
  17. Caleyboy forgetting the benifits a loan to the Highland League can do to a player? Look at Graeme Shinnie. Went out to Forres pretty much as soon as he left the youth ranks, now look where he is, moved to a club that is highly favoured to go up to the Premier League and has 5 Scotland Caps under his belt. I highly doubt, had he not gone on loan, he'd be bored out of his mind with no game time, and end up not being probably one of our best (if not the best) academy product... Early loans are the best time to challenge players and make themselves ready for the jump into big boy football, otherwise, if it goes wrong, they could fail miserably and then the player is stuck going nowhere for the rest of his career...
  18. Was meaning Prince George. I know about British Colombia ?
  19. According to his Wikipedia page he was born in Prince George, BC (sod knows where that is), then lived in Vancouver before moving to Middlesbrough then heading to Inverness where he went to Millburn...apparently his parents were English, but IIRC, you can play for a country through the birth place of you, your parents or your grandparents...
  20. Great assist from Danny Devine. Never thought he'd be beneficial to us after he left...
  21. More than enough, but probably not to fill every exact position...
  22. Surprised Machado isn't in despite how well he played last week...
  23. Scenes when he gets signed by Man City and we become richer than Uncle Roy F.C. could ever dream of
