Great thread this. We first purchased one of these new computer things around Christmas '98 I think. It was my eldest lad (Techno Gringo) that found a Caley web site so I had a look, as you do. I signed the guestbook and mentioned that we were coming up from Coventry Nil (don't think it was Coventry Nil at the time as they were managing to score... :biggrin: ) for a game . Scotty responded to the post and seemed amazed that anyone would travel that far to see Caley play. He invited us to go along to the Caley Inn before or after the game for a beer and chat. We went in after the game for a quick drink...the quick drink, I believe, lasted most of the evening. It was here that I met Scotty, Big Stu, Calum and Dom (whatever happened to him, he was always with Calum) and also Don and Bridget who owned the small pub. The Caley Inn at that time only used the small bar downstairs. Further trips to games always started at the Caley Inn and many site users met here before and after games. From here many a friendship has grown and also CTO has provided a long list of great times and yet more friends. I had the pleasure of meeting many CTO users over the years and have also been on many social outings outwith football. Over the years with more and more users finding the forum it came to light that I wasn't the only visitor from afar and a few were found in the English Midlands. Get together's were made in Brum with Mr & Mrs Paulibee and King Beastie which caused many a sore head. CTO has been a great roller coaster of a ride and its a real pleasure to be part of it. Long may it continue and long may friendships be made.

Would have made this one if it wasn't for attending a wedding. All weddings on football days should be made a criminal offences punished by the issuing of an Elgin City season ticket.

Hello Steph
So sorry to hear about Alison, I didn't know she was suffering from cancer so it came as bit of a shock. Would dearly like to attend the funeral but it may be too short notice re work etc, unless, of course, I can swing it with the boss. Please send details when you get them and I'll see what I can do.
Thanks
Gringo

Many happy memories of away days and a few at home with Alison and Iain. Only the other day I was sifting through some photo's and came across one with a group of us in the Cottage Tandorri restaurant in Inverness celebrating either someone's birthday or a Caley win! Wonderful times and a memory we will cherish of Alison's smiling face. Our hearts go out to you Iain, Craig and Lesley and the rest of the family on your sad loss.

I'm sure Harry, but you stuck by your hunch and grabbed the points. That's 'well played' in my book.

NPL Match 5 ? Review Down to earth with a bump. As expected with a result like this, points were few and far between for the NPL punters. However, there were winners....and quite a few losers. No maximums anywhere for this game. Harry Chibber stuck by his hunch on the Main Footy forum predicting ICT would lose this game. He was the only one to predict this and grabed points to put him joint top.

NPL Match 3 ? Review A terrific result for ICT at Tannadice but no so good news for the NPL punters. It?s always difficult to predict this kind of trouncing especially away from home, so, consequently, there were very few points on offer in Game 3. There were no max?s in the Correct Scores section. There were no points at all in the First Scorer section. Andrew Winchester grabs the only points in the Crowd Section.
