Kelty/ Is this a joke - merged thread

“I would ask the fans to rally round the club at this time and show their support by not only purchasing their season tickets but also getting involved directly with the club to see how they can help".

Many have tried - few have succeeded in recent years. 

 

Genuinely sorry that RM went before the CEO to be honest. He seems genuine, and we know he was a supporter long before he was the chairman. With him gone, the main problem still remains.

Yes.  Confirmed in the Courier.  No replacement.  Morrison says that is for those at club to sort out.  Interestingly he says he had already told the Board he intended to stand down at the end of June so you one would have thought a successor was standing in the wings.  He also says it is for those left at the club to decide the fate of the CEO.

Just when Ryan Christie is proving the value of players from Inverness.

Did he sack anyone before he left?

It was increasingly clear that Morrison wasn’t the right person to take us forward, but what we really wanted was an orderly transition to someone with a better plan and the money to do it. I fear we don’t have that in place and could descend into further turmoil, if that were possible.

The courier is also reporting that Park and ride scheme has fallen through.  Statkraft bought out the Red John scheme from ILI and have not been able to agree costs with the Club.  They have therefore walked away from the deal and are looking elsewhere.  That is yet another non footballing scheme which has failed.  It just gets worse and worse.  Suggestion that not receiving the expected payment for this may be the reason for not being able to submit the accounts.

Wish he had it in him to sack the CEO before he left …

[Yngwie]

Morrison still believes the Kelty plan is the best option for the club so there was no chance of sacking its architect.

Morrison said “I would ask the fans to rally round the club at this time and show their support by not only purchasing their season tickets but also getting involved directly with the club to see how they can help".  I will be more than happy to do that, but not whilst Gardiner is there and not until the absurd Kelty scheme is reversed.

Oh dear is not good news at all, if that is the £300,000 RM alluded to on the podcast then it sounds like we would have been depending on that to be a going concern. A bit unlucky for the club that this buyout happened, I guess. 

[+snorbens_caleyman]

I'll be happy to take over as Chairman.  I'm only 560 miles from inverness.

Or poor contract writing not to have the use of the car park secured in the deal.

[+Fraz]

Of Morrison, Gardiner and Ferguson, Morrison was the last one I wanted to resign. Gardiner should have been fired and Ferguson should have had some dignity and walked.

The scheme was always designed to be sold on to a developer, that's the whole ILI business model. 

This is another example of Gardiner messing up a supposedly cunning money making scheme. The guy has some midas touch.

I'll renew my season ticket when Gardiner and Ferguson go and the move to Kelty is scrapped

I can accept Ferguson if necessary but Gardiner and Kelty are non negotiable. Get Gardiner Gone

[Pele_Is_God]

If the move to Kelty is scrapped I would imagine Ferguson will resign anyway. If he is happy to stay on and work under new conditions, I would be fine with that.

[RiG]

Well, we're f'cked. If we don't go into administration before the season starts I'll be surprised.

Disagree…….. Ferguson has had 30 games plus 4 playoff games to keep us up as a minimum. ……… He didn’t. GTF, along with Bollan !!!!

[Hearach]

Won’t shed any tears if he goes but other two are more important at the moment

Unfortunately it seems more likely than ever before. But it’s what the fans want…

I'm not a fan of Ferguson but I think the reality here is that whilst we need the CEO gone and the Kelty deal reversed, we simply can't afford to pay Ferguson off.

At our current trajectory he'll be jettisoned with sweet FA, and can line up with the rest of the creditors...

[RiG]

Kelty move off?
