Richie Foran is NOT out for the rest of the season and the club have no idea where that story came from.

I've also heard otherwise :(

Someone needs to tell Richie then, as he's not aware of it.

OK then, I'll tell him.

Today's Inverness Courier suggests that David Raven will miss the game tomorrow, through injury.
The latest SFA suspension list indicates that Ross Draper will miss our league game at Hearts 1st March. (officially, the first league game after 29th February)
Incidentally, from that same list, I noticed I'd made an error by previously stating (on another thread) that Andrea Mutombo would be suspended for our quarter-final cup tie.
I wrongly thought he'd 'picked' up two bookings in the competition, but happily, it's just one - so he's eligible for the Hibs game.

Why is it so difficult for the club to actually tell us what's wrong with our injured players? I have found the silence this season bizarre and a little bit insulting.

Do any journalists even ask the question of the manager or do they not even know who any of our players are in the first place! Apart from the infamous diving Draper obviously.

I get the whole siege mentally everybody hates us but we are the fans and shouldn't be excluded.

Celtic vs ICT team news:  20/2/2016

Club captain Richie Foran (calf) remains out while Alex Fisher (ankle), Josh Meekings and James Vincent (both knee) are unlikely to return for the Parkhead encounter.

Long-term absentee Aaron Doran (knee) is still out but goalkeeper Dean Brill is closing in on a return from his knee injury.

Inverness (from): OF Williams, Raven, Warren, Devine, Tremarco, Tansey, D Williams, Draper, Polworth, Storey, Mbuyi-Mutombo, Vigurs, Sutherland, Roberts, Ferguson, Wedderburn, Hughes, R Williams, Brown, Esson.

 

I asked for this thread to help CTO users keep track of the mounting injury list at the start of the season and the confusion it caused. The information is out there. I cross reference a few sites to check the information matches up. Admittedly I could be more regular with updates.

Admittedly it would be preferable to get it from the official site and straight from the club itself. They only ever seem to make new signing/contract extension team news on there though.

Anyway I hope this thread helps.

Keep up the good work Cap'n. Looks like the taxi driver that took Richie to Raigmore was right eenuff

I fine job you are doing too, I hope you don't think I was having a go at your efforts to keep us informed.

I'm just frustrated with not knowing what's going on with the players. I take it from the negative responses to my previous post that fans are happy with the current situation.

Just a question.  How is Meekings's injury progressing?  When Warren broke his leg at the start of the season we all knew he would be out for months.  If anything, he came back earlier than some of us thought.  But with Meekings, I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking that when he got injured, he might miss two or three weeks, a month at most.  But here we are several weeks later and no one seems to know just what his injury is, or how near to coming back he is.  Can anyone shed any light?

On 21st Jan he tweeted:

2 injections in the knee tomorrow, another step in the right direction hopefully! 

Nothing since

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hes hardy, a needle in the knee is a sore one.

If the story about Foran isn't true then are the club going to issue some kind of correction on it?

The press were corrected on it...again...last week.  This time by John Hughes.....5:49 into this interview.

I see Mutombo was not in the squad yesterday. Another one out injured?

Good stuff. I don't always watch the videos but nice to see the club dishing out some telt.

Mutombo, Foran, Doran, Raven, Meekings, Vincent, Brill, Fisher miss anyone else off that list who's out injured?

Callum Ferguson haven't seen him in ages

Mutombo got a knock in training on Friday and (as I understand it) a late decision was made not to risk antagonising it by including him in the squad.  Don't think it's serious.

Ferguson has had an ongoing issue which they have been working to resolve all season.  He's been on a new course of physio treatment which I believe is going well and he's started back getting game time with the development squad.

Hearts v Inverness team news:

Inverness boss John Hughes hopes to see goalkeeper Dean Brill finally end his 11-month lay-off in March.

The Englishman suffered a serious knee injury at the end of last season, during a clash with Celtic, but Hughes believes he is closing in on a return after rejoining the Highlanders' squad for light training. 

Club captain Richie Foran (calf) remains unavailable for Tuesday's Ladbrokes Premiership trip to Hearts. Alex Fisher (ankle), Josh Meekings and James Vincent (both knee) are all doubts for the Tynecastle clash while long-term absentee Aaron Doran (knee) remains out.

 

Inverness (from): OF Williams, Raven, Warren, Devine, Tremarco, Tansey, D Williams, Draper, Polworth, Storey, Mbuyi-Mutombo, Vigurs, Sutherland, Roberts, Ferguson, Wedderburn, Fisher, Meekings, Vincent, Hughes, R Williams, Brown, Esson.

Inverness have doubts over Alex Fisher, Josh Meekings and James Vincent for the trip to Tynecastle.

Fisher is nursing an ankle injury while Meekings and Vincent are looking to shake off knee problems.

Although I've not seen it reported in the previews on the usual media outlets (focussing instead on who's likely to be missing through injury), I'm fairly sure that Ross Draper is suspended for tonight....
Would obviously be a catastrophic blunder playing an ineligible player!
If it is the case, he'll be a miss. Although, always an integral part of the team, I've felt he's been particularly influential for us in recent weeks.

Just checked on the SFA site - Draper is suspended tonight.

Draper will be a massive miss tonight IMO. 

If that is the case I'd like to see Wedderburn get back in.  Thought he did well on the whole replacing Draper a couple of months back.  Hughes is another option.

I'd like to see Hughes given a try to see if he lives up to the big build up the Cambridge fan on here gave him a few weeks ago.
