Ken Ross

The club have just announced Keith Bray has signed for Dunfermline, the good news is he is staying with us till the end of the season. I’m assuming he was out of contract at the end of the season and we would’ve lost him then so this way at least there a few more pennies in the bank and hopefully a sell on clause or two.

I’m sure I saw a tweet from him today to say that he had just been sacked from that job.

There were many calls for Morrison to go mainly because he employed , defended and trusted Gardiner.Gardiner will go and the details of his contract will be confidential as would any contract covered by the notorious GDPR regulations. Nobody was giving the board credit for cancelling Kelty,.the credit goes to the pressure put on the board by the Trust , the fans and forums like this. I agree if Ferguson had any kind of morality he would be gone and his utter absence in all of this makes me wonder about what his future is. Someone earlier put forward that a drip feed of season ticket money might not be a bad thing to keep the board on their toes. I hope we are both satisfied sooner rather than later. When and how you spend your money is entirely up to you .

I can’t disagree with anything you have written and as we both know it will be up to the individual. Hopefully we have received a fee for Harper with maybe some add ons as well and this will help keep the lights on for a wee while. In the statement it said the team will be highland based and allegedly consist of local talent so the plan for the future should be based around developing our own players and hopefully moving on the “stars” for fees. In the past too many have left with not a penny coming back to the club. Alan Savage has secured the Academy for the foreseeable future so that would seem to be a plan coming together. If David Witherspoon wanted to train twice a week in Inverness and keep fit with St Johnstone the other 3 days I would be open minded to that sort of arrangement for the right player.

So Morrison has gone, Gardiner is going and Kelty is dead in the water. If I remember correctly those were the three main demands from the supporters in this forum and also the wider community. To get Ferguson out at this moment in time will cost a fortune that we just don’t have currently. I too am frustrated that we don’t have all the information we could have but I also remember being totally misled by Gardiner and his pals when they announced plans and cash windfalls as facts long before they were signed and sealed, so if the board aren’t giving much away just now maybe just maybe they are waiting until the deals are done and signed and written in stone before they announce what’s happening . If we don’t buy our season tickets and merchandise then we all know what will happen. I’d rather lose money trying to keep the club alive than have the money in the bank and sod all to do on a Saturday afternoon. Doubt I’ll make many friends with this but it’s way I see it.

It's good business practice if you know what the likely demand will be for your product, therefore taking advance orders allows ICT to provide a more accurate order to Puma. I would imagine that there would be different pricing for different quantities of shirts and again if you have a good knowledge of demand it is more likely that the best price for the correct quantity can be achieved. Less overstocks as well.This is pretty normal practice especially where bulk orders are concerned.
