Hammerafc Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Football fans are the devil! Well in Scotland we are according to Sturgeon, Swinney & Leitch. Feel like it was a decision to force the postponement of the Old Firm game and to hell with the rest of us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hopeful the Championship sides would vote to pause the season as well but that wasn’t to be. I seen the Celtic’s managers comments about playing in empty stadiums and it’s good to see someone at the top of the Scottish game echoing what many football fans think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The form we are in at the moment keeping going was probably a good thing as you couldn't guarantee it would only be for 3 weeks plus all the midweek fixtures to add for us.Saying that it would have been great to be at EEP on boxing day for another 3 0 win there and will probably have to watch one of the next home games on TV which is not ideal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farflung lichtie Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Couple of points from the post match interviews. Mike McKenna mentioned that we’ve almost reached the points target for the season (notionally 40 is absolute safety). This focus on each game at a time remains sensible. He did say that we could maybe relax a bit and also that we generally finish the season well. Encouraging prospect maybe for the second half as long as the absence of creative tension doesn’t work the other way. Also Pink made the point about how they always try and maintain, though longer contracts, a good nucleus of players implying that maybe some other clubs have too much turnover and this stability also helps the few new players coming in. This large batch of contract renewals lately emphasises that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Imagine the crowd we would have had in v Hamilton and if we had beat them and set up a top of the table clash v Inverness for a New Year game with no Prem games on too would’ve been pushing 2k. Mind we played Mo (who barely ever bring anyone) at New Year and had 1800 there in L2. This is once in a lifetime stuff this, might and probably won’t ever be in this position again. It’s so sad like. Thank you Nicola Sturgeon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gayfield Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Season Ticket Ballot Update Earlier today we began the process to dispatch the tickets for the Hamilton Accies match. The first 100 tickets were dispatched when we were then informed the game was going to be postponed and we halted that process. ALL Supporters who applied for the Hamilton Accies match as their 1st choice were successful as well as a number who applied for it as their second choice. We will soon be emailing ALL supporters who picked the Inverness Caledonian Thistle match as their 1st choice. The team are currently going through the ticketing process and tickets will be dispatched shortly. The remaining tickets will be put to a second ballot for those who missed out on the Hamilton Accies match due to its cancellation as a second choice. We are doing out very best to be fair and transparent and to give all our loyal supporters the chance to cheer on their team under the current restrictions. Many thanks again for your support.

lichtie23 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 It’s obviously very disappointing the game has been called off tomorrow but barring a 5 or 6 goal swing for Caley or Raith tomorrow evening our wonderful club will be top of the cinch Championship on January 1st. Let that sink in 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtiemike Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I think the people behind the scenes at the club deserve immense credit, for the last week or so with all the uncertainty but also the past year, a lot of these decisions won’t keep everyone happy but I think generally we get most of them right with the best intentions. The amount of extra work involved at the moment must be a huge burden for those with commitments away from the club. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtiedaft1993 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Looking forward to the inverness game on sunday as in hospitality so good day ahead and hope the team get a big result and push on for the title. Would be a major statement beating them and staking our claim that we can go all the way and win it be a tuff game, inverness form bit up and down at moment so not sure what team will turn up just hope we turn up and give it are all CMON. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
