STFU

It's preseason so results are secondary and it was a decent day for getting out to put faces to new names in the squad. Although £12 for a friendly does feel a little steep. I don't think the trialists were as bad as some others are saying. Ojo was getting into dangerous positions with the ball but seemed a little reluctant to pull the trigger earlier. He seemed to be constantly looking for a final killer pass so that may be down trying things out and instructions from coaching staff. I'd be raging if he was doing that it competitive matches. The other fella didn't do anything I would consider out of place and seemed comfortable throughout. Billy Mckay will know what they were looking for so I trust he'll judge based on that but I wouldn't be surprised if both were offered contracts. The goal we conceded was a classic scramble and Munro was unsighted for the final shot and could do nothing about it. We weren't really troubled aside from that.

Winds gusting to over 40mph tomorrow should make the matches interesting.

That's why relegation clauses exist. I was more making an observation than a criticism as I get that we're still in a bit of a transition and some uncertainties remain, so we'll be proceeding with positivity, tempered by caution on the financial side. Signings so far all looking good. A couple more solid 'starters' and a few eager guys looking to get a spot and keep them on their toes and we'll be in good shape come the competitive games.

Good to have football again and it was a nice day out at Strathspey. Be nice for us to get back to having a fan pre season open day with a few things on in future.

Unfortunate, but also positive to hear there's work being done. Thanks.

Any hospitality options?

Not disappointed with the signings so far but that's a lot of 1 year contracts and with existing players also with a year left there's going to be an even bigger rebuild required next season. Maybe necessary if we get promoted anyway but back to where we are now if we don't.

We're still a league 1 club with limited resources. It's not going to take much to be a marquee signing at this level.

Nobody in that who should give us the fear. Hamilton, Kelty and Cove all with serious money issues. Any or all of them could be administration candidates next season.

I agree but I do think the level of discount seems a bit high. The idea of a loyalty discount system sounds good and might have stopped me breaking my continuity when swithering on renewal with all the bs last year.

They could half the cost of attending matches (not just us) and it would still be one of the most expensive forms of entertainment out there. What's needed is additional value in whatever way that can be provided.

That was the season that was. No words to describe how proud I am of the team and (post DF) management/coaching. Wouldn't wish what they've had to go through on any team (well maybe 2) but they will have learned a lot about themselves and what can be achieved by pulling together as a team. Avoiding the play offs means they will all now get a thoroughly deserved full summer break. Hope to see many of them pulling on the Caley Thistle shirt again next season.

From the Inverness Courier, it looks like we can offer existing players contract extensions even though we're still in administration. According to the P&J, Danny Devine is the first to say publicly that he intends to stay.

Morton or Montrose. They all smell the same to me.

...and Billy Mckay obliges.

Feel like we're playing well within ourselves. Get a third to kill it then a game against Morton for sixth place next week.

Club media went the same way as everything else over the last 6 or 7 years. Highlights have become sporadic and quality is atrocious even when we do get them. Hopefully it is one of the things on Alan Savage's list to be looked at.

Nerve racking end to the season. Easy to get caught up in the negatives and be critical but I'm grateful that we're even in a position to have a fighting chance.

Are there not rules about deliberately fielding a weakened team? From memory I think we had to defend a scenario where we played a youth team in a cup game?

I'm starting to feel sorry for you now.

Link for the podcast?

I acknowledged the fact that we have no knowledge on Kells ability to build a squad we don't even know what resources he might have to do so. Next season is still an total unknown on almost every front. Doesn't mean we can't or shouldn't compare his performance to his predecessor. Two different things.

Need to hope that Scooby Doo doesn't appear to rip off Savages mask revealing that he is really Makwana.

Votes are only based on the people in the room and proxies (?) so unless all 500 plus shareholders show up (and we already know that's not possible) at a meeting then we are rarely if ever looking at calculating percentages against all shares.

The 10 vs 23 games is why I used average PPG. If you want to go back and include 23 games for Ferguson then his average is even worse and only strengthens the case for Kell. I don't take anything said online to heart so you can sleep easy and not worry about upsetting me. Feel free to disagree with me any time you like and I will continue to do the same.
