The cup run, especially the semi-final drama and the demise of Hibs

Were the golf stands built as a temporary measure in case we didn't stay in the SPL very long? Now we are an established SPL side, surely something more permanent should be, at least behind the home goal.

Having just read that Hearts have got rid of Jamie Hamill, Ryan Stevenson and Jamie McDonald, does anyone think any of these three would be a good addition to the squad? I think Stevenson would be good. I would defiantly go for McDonald if we didn't already have Brill.

I think a tour de Yorkshire would be a good pre season warm up for the lads as there are a lot of teams that would provide a good test for the lads like Leeds, Huddersfield, the Sheffield sides, Doncaster, Bradford, Barnsley, Rotherham etc. Plus I live in Yorkshire and could go to then all

Give him the summer to work on the team, get in the players he wants and mould them to his style of play. If after 6 games of next season we are near the bottle and still playing crap football, get him out!

If we had the money I think investment in the stadium would be a major priority. Caley park is a rubbish stadium, it's far to open to the elements (mainly due to where it's been stupidly situated) there is no atmosphere even when people do get singing, stupid uncovered sections of the main stand (never liked them, never will and god only knows why we went with that design, it's aweful) and the north and south stands are far to far away from the pitch and not steep enough to get a decent vantage point. Stands behind the goals like at raith rovers would be ideal but sadly we do not have the funds.

Very upsetting to here that she lost her fight with cancer. A great tennis player who will be missed by all!

Well, that was the 1st time I have wanted County to win. I would love Hibs the finish 11th as it really would serve Butcher right for leaving us.

Since Hughes took over, they way the team are being made to play is embarrassing. I think we need to start next season with a fresh pair of eyes at the helm as the appointment of Hughes was clearly a mistake.

Only 3 points between 7th and 11th and the goal difference is very close too! Exciting times. I hope Hibs finish 11th

I never wanted Hughes as manager in the first place but was always prepared to back whoever the board appointed but the honeymoon period is well and truly over. Hughes' tactics are woeful to say the least and is not utilising the players in the positions and ways in which they excel in. I agree that waiting too long for change is never good (as we all know from the Brewster fiasco). In the next 3 matches, if there is not a marked difference in tactics, with players allowed to play to their strengths and do what they do best, then I think the board need to cut their loses and let Hughes go.

He always seemed a solid enough player when he has played. Surprised he hasn't gone somewhere better than stenhousemuir (no offence)

Does anyone have a clip of forans overhead kick vs raith? I don't remember it

I think we have to go back to the blue and red stripes. The best tops we have had IMHO

I've got 5 or 6 in a draw somewhere, including the minging orange one - what was i thinking?

Winning the 1st division was very special but that was more a season of joy more than a single home moment. 1) Beating celtic 3-2 after being 0-2 down - Super caley went balistic once again 2) 1-0 cup victory against Celtic, wyness with the winner 3)Scottish cup replay against Dundee Utd - Think we were in Div 2 and took it to extra time after being 2-0 down with less than 10 mins left. We may have lost but what an occasion it was 4)Rankins stunner against the gers 5) First game in the SPL at the TCS

I think it is about time the Hughes rejigged the midfield. Playing Vincent, Tansey, Foran and Draper together just doesn't work. There is no width and no real pace. Once they get the ball they are always looking for the next pass and not looking to run forward with the ball, sometimes its almost as if they are scared to go forward and want to pass responsibility to someone else. I would like to see Hughes start with Ross and Christie in the coming weeks to freshen things up and add a bit of pace. He needs to resort to the 4-2-3-1 as it is clearly our best formation. I think Draper and Vincent in the holding role. Christie, Ross and Watkins ahead of them with Billy up the top. That would give us 2 very good passers of the ball with good awareness in the holding role with a pacey attack. With top 6 secured and wins not coming our way at the moment, would it not be a good time to shake the team up a bit?

Brill Raven Meekings Devine Tremarco Vincent/Draper Doran Shinnie Ross/Foran Christie McKay I would love to see Shinnie playing further up the pitch. He has great pace and can take people on. Christie has so much potential and needs to be given a game from the start to show what he can do. i think an attacking 5 of Doran, Ross, Christie, Shinnie and Mckay could have defences running scared. There is so much talent and pace there, the potential is frightening

First full season at TCS in the SPL, full ground against the OF and big attendences against Aberdeen with big away supports from OF, aberdeen, hibs hearts. Will be right enough

The attendance today was disappointng, 4000 would have been nice to see. I have been doing a little research into our average attendaces over the years. from season 1999-2000 to season 02-03, our average crowd was around 2100-2300. In our promotion season it was around 3200. Scrap the 1st year in the SPL as half was at Aberdeen. The next 8 seasons make interesting reading: 05-06 = 5061 06-07 = 4879 07-08 = 4752 08-09 = 4457 09-10 couldnt find 10-11 = 4526 11-12 = 4147 12-13 = 3891 I got this info from a number of websites but it shows the general pattern of decreasing attendences in almosts every SPL season. Are fans leaving as they dont like what they are seeing? Is it too expensive? Is it the fact that the SPL novalty has worn off and only Rangers, Celtic and County are going to pull in the crowds?

Hughes was never my 1st choice and even though results have been poor lately he needs to be given time. He has inherited a squad that was playing well but wants to put his own stamp on the team. He needs to be given time to bring in hi own players and create his own team. If the team is struggling at Christmas, then think about a change at the top. To suggest it now is just ludicrous

I thought that Devine was excellent in the final and i would love to see him start. I agree with people that Billy needs a rest but who is going to take his place? Id go with: Brill Raven Devine Meekings Shinnie Draper Foran Christie Tansey Doran McKay Subs: Esson, Warren, Tremarco, Vincent, Watkins, Williams, Greenhalgh

Lovely gesture for the club, let's hope we can show the team the support it deserves after what has been a great season. Be good to get 4500+

2 year extension. Great news

Great effort from the players and the fans were tremendous. Today we lacked to quality in the final third but I thought meekings and Devine were excellent. Great all round effort. I am a proud ICT fan
