Found this interesting wee article from 2004 http://www.wsc.co.uk/the-archive/30-Clubs/2065-the-moral-highlands As a matter of interest what was the average attendances of the two clubs in highland league? Article above suggests 2000 average in 03/04. Now we average 3500. That suggests that crowd figures have risen since merger and rise up the leagues. Now lets assume the merger never happened and Caledonian were granted entry to league. Would that team be in top league now with 3500 average crowds or would it be languishing with Montrose and East Stirlingshire with less than 500 averages. The history of both clubs will not be forgotten nor will the history making of the current club but without the two there probably wouldn't be a current club in its current position.

Dont think it would be a publicity stunt on behalf of Benni. He hates the limelight. Perhaps its the team supported by his new wife and Edinburgh lass Stacey Munro.

I very much doubt these ladies would be the type that enjoyed tea and cakes more like pints of lager and kebabs but you are right it's another way that new fans could be encouraged through the gates even if was only a few games per season Dougal No dougal. Strictly G&T or spritzers. They were formed about three years ago and chose a name that didn't clash with Accies. Since there inception they have been doing really well and could become a top league team soon. You should go and watch a girls game sometime dougal. Might teach you something about the game and how not to be a sexist arse. Oh come on Alex, talk about opening your erse and letting your mouth rumble! How is this sexist? In my book that line suggests female footballers are of a particular sexual persuasion. Therefore sexist

All depends on how the 'notice of termination' clause is written. It may well read that on notice of termination a sum equal to salary to end of contract will be paid. Usually this is paid as a lump sum as in £5 million to David Moyes but if the club doesn't have the cash at hand then they will pay on regular basis until they can sign of the deal. These sort of contracts also happen in other business. Usually for top managers. The thing about the Butcher case is that he wasn't sacked by the people who hired him but by the new chief exec who decided he wouldn't fit into her way of running a club.

Signed to U-20's a few weeks ago. 17 year old left mid

Maybe they actually have orders of a few hundred thousand more than 28.

Sorry Dougalbut your statistics dont hold firm. Indeed they are very much the sort offigures that the NO campaigners would churn out. I not you have conveniantly omitted a large proportion of the so called refuseniks. You've omitted the 2000 odd who help make up the home crowd whenwe face Aberdeen, Celtic and Rangers. The ones who could never get to games to watch their real team but, instead, joined in the fun and frolics of a Highland League game. Some of them use the merger as an excuse but in reality have no intention of following another team in the same league as their true idols.

I dont believe Ayina is holding out for more money. I'm more inclined to believe that he's just another journeyman player doing the triallist rounds, as many of them do, to see whats on offer. This is a guy who in five years has been at six clubs.

In Columbian spanish Jaime is pronounced high-me.

Might be related but Crawfords a Weegie and Ryans a Reekie

Considering the time and effort put in last year and this by both Ross County and Inverness fans for this match to go ahead and become an annual success dont you people not think its just a wee bit OTT taking the p!ss out of the guy. scubasteve, PM on way Unfortunately I'll also be at Starks otherwise I may have had a wee weekend in Sneck and a visit over the water.

We already have a mascot. Dont remember a train on the pitch when it was Scotrail. Nor a very large blood tester when it was Inverness Medical so why have a ham butty when its Subway

Have we re-signed Andrew?

Crazy how long we take to release new replica strips I would have thought like season tickets the priority would be to get as many as possible sold ASAP so the money is in the bank and could be made available to Yogi for squad additions or ground improvements Regardless whether it's the clubs fault or the supplier it's time for better communication between the two in future Dougal Dougal, and those who liked your post. Has it ever crossed your mind that we dont take long to release a kit. Is it not obvious by now that mid-July is the time we have released kit since using Errea. All clubs have a time of year when they release such. We choose July.

Tis alright. Plenty of taxi's around to the places LB suggests.

No problems with link. Self and Aileen paid now.

I can see him at Sky or BT as pundit for Rangers, ICT and Hibs.

Actually, Suarez apart, I actually quite like Uruguay as a small nation with a great footballing history punching well above their weight. A style of play taught by a Scotsman and a league system founded by that same Scotsman. I'd have liked to see Uruguay reach the final but I think they'll struggle for goals without Suarez. I can see Holland getting there and probably Brazil. I think, for quite a few of the Dutch players, this is the last chance to bring glory to their country so perhaps they have the greater desire. Been runners up on a few occassions so nows the chance.

Not sure we have copyright to Caledonian Thistle now that we've stuck Inverness in front of it. Besides rather than boo them perhaps we should get 12th man to persuade them to come support their namesakes.

Well Suarez has fekked himself right up now. At least a two year ban coming up methinks. Shame really cos I fancied Uruguay to get their third tournament win.

And yon wee brig is affy close tae the watter

Was there a merger? Oh I so there was!!! I'd very nearly forgotten.

Colombian or Nigerian

Pepper has signed for Morton but I see no mention of Greenhalgh.
