RiG 3,416 Report post Posted March 1 News like this always hits home harder with our small but tightknit support. You would struggle to find a warmer and friendlier ICT fan than Simon. He was a lovely guy and will be missed terribly by friends and family. Rest In Peace Bronson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tm4tj 2,075 Report post Posted March 1 A privilege to have known Simon through ICT. I'm finding this sad news difficult to take in and it will be worse for his family and close friends. Rest in Peace Brosno. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yngwie 3,793 Report post Posted March 1 What awful news. I knew him only through this site and from meeting occasionally at games or in the pre-match pub. He was always friendly, passionate and humorous, and his drunken late night posts on this site were legendary for many years. RIP Brosno. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alternative maryhill 538 Report post Posted March 1 I know Simon had a lot of close friends who post on the site. It was a privilege to get to know him through them and to stay in the same house for a few unforgettable days in Bucharest. What brilliant company he was, and what a kind and welcoming guy. Thoughts very much with his family and friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kingsmills 5,586 Report post Posted March 1 What dreadful news. Another much valued and respected member of the ICT family gone far too prematurely. I can't add to what has already been said but fully endorse every word. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaleyCanary 408 Report post Posted March 1 This is harsh news to take. Bronson was one of the original Highland March crew and I'm not sure I'd have got through that first trek without his laughter and personality to help us through the tough bits. He had a heart of gold and I used to love his late night calls when he'd phone up three sheets to the wind with the latest joke he'd heard in a pub somewhere that night. My thoughts go out to all his family and close friends. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Joonya 289 Report post Posted March 1 As CaleyCanary has said, Bronson was part of the original Highland March back in 2003 and was indeed part of its conception. He was also so welcoming of me when I moved from Coventry to Inverness nearly 14years ago, and though I seldom saw him in recent years, he'd always be full of smiles and laughs whenever our paths crossed. A real ICT-nut and true legend. RIP Bronson x 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gringo 632 Report post Posted March 1 My Facebook Post from earlier today..... Words can not explain how I feel right now. Today I heard of the passing of one the nicest guys I ever met whilst supporting Inverness Caley Thistle. He was a laugh, a true Caley Thistle fan, a gent and was always in awe at my (our) long distance journeys that were made as a family to follow his (our) team. He was also a founder member of the infamous Highland March and also became the saviour of it too on that very first event. I shared the support bus with him on a number of occasions we're we talked football and rock music. From those halcyon days of the HM, the fun in the Innes Bar, the home matches and the away matches on the supporters bus I will never forget you Simon MacDonald ‘Bronson’ never. With a heavy heart I bid you farewell my friend and may you rest in peace now. My heart also goes out to all your family and friends. A pain unimaginable right now. I hope my words ease that awful pain somehow. 6 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
