Two home games so far this season and on both occasions the attendance figure has not been published in match reports etc. Not even the 'official' SPFL web site can provide the figure. Surely there is someone there that count above 20 . Is someone finding it difficult with the count because they can't use season ticket holder numbers? How does the count work? Turnstile figure or guessimate? Note to participants of Gringo's NPL: Please be patient with updates. Until the club gets its act together regarding this issue it could take an age to produce. It's in their hands (and toes).

Batten down the hatches, it's going to be a stormy old season and we'll be playing against the wind in every game. Early days...but.

Daft as it may sound, that could work. Just imagine a little truck like that doing the rounds of the local area catching all the tourists. It quirky - tourists like quirky.

Good idea in theory but I can't see it ever happening in Inverness to be honest. Cost is the main issue here and I think it would struggle to get the punters through the door initially. However, if was to include other local clubs (not just football) then it could appeal to wider audience maybe? Could be worth a bit of market research..but that costs too.

It's because we are a Highland team and we were already winning. It's to give the Angus team a wee chance

"Ref! If I use this lotion would get all the shite off my arm?"

Our pre season has consisted of only four friendlies. Is this enough to get match fit for the coming season? 3 wins against HL sides and a defeat against a league side doesn't really fill anyone with confidence going into this Saturday game in the League Cup. To top it all we have string of injuries too. Saturday's game against Brechin City is going to be tough.

Apparently not Renegade. I've gone 31 years without one - ain't bothered me

You wait until she sees me

Dumbarton: There is a bar located at the ground but this is for home fans only. Popular with away supporters is the nearby Rock Bowling Club. This is situated a little further down the road from the ground, opposite the entrance to the castle. A bit further away is the Stags Head, which is situated opposite the entrance to East Dumbarton station. It is a good sized bar, with TV's and a pool table. (Source: footballgroundguide dot com)

There was a rumour that Derek Adams was interested but quite why he'd want to leave the lovely city of Plymouth for Aberdeen is beyond me.

I was just reading the same thing Sean127. Doesn't fill me with confidence either and certainly shows no ambition to climb straight back up to the top flight.

Beat me to it

Must confess I've enjoyed Championship football more than I ever have with Premiership football...but that's just my personal view. [This doesn't mean I condone the season tickets prices by the way]

One half would have to be in a shadow....I'll let you work out which one

So, according to those dates, we could be out of the League Cup before the SPFL Championship season starts

Are you drunk Alan?

Do you really think so? Or have you got your ICT PR hat on here?

Was Paul Sheerin in charge at Arbroath when beat them 7-1 in pre-season friendly back in 2013? Seriously though, although he has had experience as a manager I think ICT might be a step too much for him unless he has the right assistant at his side. And I don't think Maurice would be that man somehow. I just hope we make the right choice in the end whatever the speculation may be.

What an excellent article and 100% spot on for me.

Four year contract was an og in my view. As much as RF is (was) a good player and nice bloke he is not, at this stage in his managerial career, any feckin good. I fail to see how he could attract talent or motivate players to join ICT. I fear we will be relying on the very basics of local talent - fine if you're in L2 or HL - but not good enough if we want to bounce straight back up in to the PL. To keep RF on smacks at a lack of ambition and desire to me. We're going to be in the Championship (or lower) for a good while I reckon. Hope to goodness I'm wrong but I see no signs of me changing my mind just yet.

I'm not over confident that Maurice would be the right man for that role...don't know why mind...just doesn't set my pulse racing with excitement

Bag for life - I like that idea.
