And we are still looking for 1 more player according to that article.

[GATEPOST]

From @bbcsportsound :Caley Thistle sign 20 year-old Aiden Chippendale from League One's Huddersfield Town. He's a wide player, who can also operate as a striker

[DALNEIGHCALEY]

Another kid !

[RiG]

I think Butcher and Malpas had a lot of youngsters at Motherwell when they were in charge there. Seeemd to do all right for them. Hopefully the same will be true for ICT.

I don't think we'll go for Tevez now. Balotelli?

[DALNEIGHCALEY]

You can forget about Andy Little as he's signed for Port Vale .

[BornCaley]

according to Inverness CT Fans FB page we have singed someone called Aiden Chippendale from on loan Huddersfield Town!

He's a natural Left winger who can play as a Striker!

Sorry i could'nt think of a male stripper or Cabinet joke to make!!

Hmm...relevant "one liner"

Confirmed on Official Site - ICT get a Woody!!!

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

5 foot 8 inches tall - I suppose the plan is to get him to sit on McKay's shoulders and play as a target man.

Would be great to see us get a proper striker in but i thought we were just looking for 2 new signings? Balotelli would certainly raise our profile

But do you think he'll make the bench?!

[AJS]

Quite satisfied with the buisness conducted today, suppose if any players are required there are a number of players released from their deals today so picking up free bes would be another option if necessary.

[BornCaley]

According to the Huddersfield fans Aiden Chippendale goes by the name 'Chippy'

Wow! Is there no end to the inventiveness of those tykes?

We'll know soon enough if he's up for it and we've already got a local in the cabinet.

Boom boom.

Unless this was a really late one, it looks like this didn't happen .

[Scarlet Pimple]

I would just like to chip in if I may and advise that the Pimple Organisation has heard that this new gent has a mind to stay in the Highlands and intends to become a piece of the team's furniture so to speak.

[PullMyFinger]

Maybe we're due a cabinet shuffle?

[bauhaus]

If 'chippy' appears a bit brain numb from the Terriers fans, we can certainly improve on things with David Davis, suppose we have a lot to play with......double Ds

[Libero]

I really hope the new signings adapt to the SPL very quickly and make an impression, todays papers are saying we are likely to be without Doran, Hayes, Cox and Jones until December!

[bauhaus]

maybees Tel is going to show a wee bit of faith in the youth system here. I do like Liam Polworth, and although still very young, he has a lot about him to admire. He has excelled at each youth level so far, and stood out at each level internationally. If your good enough, your old enough. Noticed that during pre season he was also out with his dad training with Clach doing their full pre season at night after he had done Caley's. Fitness wouldnt be his shortfall

[Tichy_Blacks_Back]

A number of players have been released from their contracts in the last 24hrs so there may well be new faces at several clubs before the next SPL round of matches....

[bauhaus]

Take a look through the divisions in England and see how many clubs have just released players, with no ongoing club. Some big names, lots of experiece, and without a club they can sign for anyone at any time.

Some clubs even released as much as ten or twelve players from their contracts. Im sure some would rather have a wage than be on the dole. Opportunities if the ex pats put their money in, if we need alternatives later

[Council Juice]

Lets hope Chippendale can be our Rescue Ranger, especially seeing as we didn't sign any Rangers kids! (If you're older than 30 or younger than your early 20s you might not get this reference. See this See linky

And with that we've already got a song for him too!

On another note, does anyone think that although Terry has a fairly sound policy of finding young hungry starlets for relatively small wages down in England, we do lack many players with actual SPL experience? Or do we have a large enough backbone of SPL players already to need to worry about this? I'm not sure at all really.

[+MrCaleyjag]

I suppose it depends on how you look at it with regards experienced players or younger players? There's got to be a blend and possibly Terry is looking at it from the angle that a typical starting eleven would include Esson, Hogg, Tokely, Foran and possibly Tade as well then that would be enough experience to be then complimented by younger players, also taking into account that Ross has a fair bit of experience now even though he is still young.

The problem may come from injuries occuring to the senior players in the squad, lets hope though that this doesn't happen. He is possibly thinking longer term here as well and if these guys impress there could be every possibility that he may try to bring them in on a permenant basis all boding well for the future of the club. Buy them young on the cheap and sell them on later and make a profit, it's the only way really we will grow financially as a club at the rate we want as fans.
