Mr Savage i believe has wanted administration from day 1 , he has put money into the club on the basis that he could see what's under the hood before buying it or attempting to buy it out of admin which I don't think is actually going to be plain sailing. Cva agreements or one thing but if you don't own any of assets which could use to raise £ against there's trouble. Much is made of the community trust and academy businesses being run as separate entities but without Caley Thistle there's no point in either as it's the clubs names there using .. providing a pathway to first team football etc ... its a hell of a mess administration may sort it or it may absolutely destroy it

Who knows its gives a month to find potential investors doesn't it ? Appreciate what ur saying regarding kicking a can down the road but there is literally no point having funds sitting there doing nothing if the club requires them

No denying that... that isn't the question.. the question is regarding the funds sitting in the stronger together fund .. the trust have done and continues to great work

ST can change the articles no problem and then put it to a vote to the people that's put £ in and it's job done not as hard as you'd think. In terms of the go fund me I think it's pretty much cast and died either the club finds £ before the next home game or its administration. Administration will be an absolute catastrophe people will lose jobs livelihoods and in all likelihood the club will enter liquidation due to lack of assets to obtain money from . That means the academy and the community trust becomes irrelevant as there is no progression line for young players as there is no club to link it into so there is a lot on the line over the next two weeks.

I think it's very telling that not one former player , manager , assistant manager etc has made any donations to this fund - there is something going on behind the scenes I believe which is stopping these individuals from donating, there was up roar ( quite rightly ) on here and on Twitter recently about Doran having to pay for his own treatment despite the fact he was out of contract however you seen players and former managers pump a few quid into his pot to help him . There is now a situation where the club have the begging bowl out on its knees basically and not one of them are willing to put money in in fact they are literally willing to see the club die than put money in . Very telling !

I'm sure the articles could be rewritten if it was agreed . Moneys no use sitting there if there's not a club to support . Fully understand and appreciate that the trust has and continues to do good things for the club it's more so the money that's sitting there collecting interest which the club could be doing with now which was where my question came from. Is there any one on the trusts board that could confirm exactly how much money is in the stronger together fund ?

Just out of interest is or have the supporters trust made a donation? Not calling anyone out just asking the question as they had a fund didn't they which was to put money into the club ... the time is now is it not ?

Certainly not the case having spoken to Robbo the club contacted him last week and he said he is willing to settle amicably but Certainly isn't chasing it as is mentioned .

Find it hard that the article has mentioned Robbos name when there is the likes of Barry Wilson who's owed 12k Billy Dodds 20k the list will go on but they have named dropped John for a reason .. who knows what that reason may be but just seems strange when there is more owed to other people. For what it's worth John offered to work his notice was told by SG no , he offered to reduce his redundancy terms was told no by SG , finger is being pointed at the wrong man here

We had the coaches up in Thurso recently with agcoaching.co.uk great day as per . 75 youngsters attended with around 8 being involved in the academy set up

Still waiting on new strips, still waiting on new season ticket card for my youngster , still waiting on confirmation on my offer of sponsorship, that will tell you where we are one would think

New strips due to arrive this week ?

Marks situation is awkward but in all honesty there's no way back for him here I don't think ... very vocal on social media and there's probably a reason that he's not signed for a club yet ... part time and set up of his own academy is a sensible way ahead for him I think. Pinning the hopes on former players won't take the club forward needs new players with a fresh impetus to take the club to the next level again.

Big Dunc saying today that new owners is becoming closer and closer and that when that's completed there will be scope to add a few players

Yes and no I paid the extra for the physical card

When are season tickets posted out do we know ?

The young media guy Liam is controlled by what he can and can't post by SG

His Mrs works for the club which is why he's wanting to stay which you can understand . Fair play to him for being loyal but I hope he's not led up the garden path

Certainly not signalling anyone out - the lad replied to my post so I replied to his ..simple as that. Your philosophy about bread is exactly the point I was making SG will get his £ regardless . Anyway here is hoping we have a decent product on the park which we can all get behind. Whether we like it or not folks gonna be here for a while yet

I honestly appreciate and understand your reasoning as I said I just don't agree with it . If SG was picking the team and was responsible for the performances on the park then yes I would agree with you however he's isn't big Dunk is, SG business dealings are from what I understand and read are poor and quite clearly there has been a lot of issues locally with businesses which quite frankly he deserves to be taken to task on . Indeed the handling of Billy Dodds and John Robertson by him was extremely poor . Whoever sanctioned Dunk to get 160k a year when Billy was getting 70k a year needs to be taken to task on as well as many other things . The point I was making was that IF the club are to be anywhere close to being successful this season the manager needs a budget that budget will no doubt come from what is taken in from ST and Merch while the new investment consolidates the debt to make it viable . As I said I appreciate and understand your and others opinions its ur money not mine I just want the best Caley on the pitch to make us successful and there's only one way we do that and that's putting our hands in our pockets and investing in our club .

I was speaking to you apologies I'm new to this - I appreciate your concern I have dealt with Scot on a number of occasions in fact I'm still waiting on a thank you for stuff I done for him / and the club . Putting that to one side for a moment - Scot Gardiner does not play for the club , he wears a club tie - he doesn't have an effect on any results which were achieved over his tenure. His wheeling and dealing has left a lot be desired and his communication skills is through a young lad via the media department so it's very sparse at best . However the point I'm trying to make is Scot is not alone in making a **** up of this and his mannerisms are very poor . After all that that shouldn't stop anyone buying a ticket or mech , the money doesn't go into his pocket it goes to the club - he's getting paid his wage for as long as his notice period allows , that's not going to change If you buy a ticket or not the only people that's being hurt here is the clubs ability to put a good product on the park and to negotiate it's debtors. If there was ever a time to support your team it's now . I do understand your reasons for not doing so I just don't agree with the logic... its like fuk ICT because of 1 man who's on his notice I just don't get it .

Not only does the players whoever they end up being but also the management team need the support to ensure that they have a fair crk of the whip . The club needs the supporters to step up and be counted

So just I've got this straight..instead of supporting your team in its hour of need your gonna wait until August all because one man's working his notice ...

Ah I'm with you . You would like to think folk would now support the club and buy there tickets. SG will have a month's notice for every year here's been in position so he's here until a minimum of August.

Quick look on the stadium availability when purchasing a ST online and a quick count will show that its roughly 1000 and counting. Enough of the doom and gloom and back ur team .
