"The ICT Thread - From the Premiership to the Seaside"


Recommended Posts

Gardiner sat on 7,000 unread emails before he left.

Most likely from suppliers wanting paid, match going fans asking questions about what was going on and even businesses interested in advertising and investment during our plight going unanswered.

What a colossal c**t of a man.

More importantly the club is moving forward financially, slowly but surely.

Next the club needs to get that free loading print journalists with their photographers enjoying free parking, free entrance and free teas and pies to start paying as they bring nothing to the game but profit to their paper.

With ten of them at a game, at least, I reckon that's at least £50 a man, thousands over a season.

The club is crying out for fans to buy STs and merchandise yet their happy to allow freeloaders.

Every penny counts right now Mr Savage.

 

 

Not really realistic to ask journalists to pay to get in, not many folk that I can think of pay to get into their place of work

Thing is the fans were well aware of Gardiners egotistical approach to us and his bombastic attitude, now surely the Board should've had an inkling and conducting an appraisal on his daily duties and events.

70 Thousand e-mails hidden from the board is gross misconduct.

The stadium is not their place of work  my point is that print journalists profit from the game but put nothing back in, You don't see their owners queuing up to help Caley out financially.

A few years back Rangers were getting pissed off with their numbers at games and proposed a £25 charge per man to their editors and of course a huge row was raised.

Cheap as chips marketing and publicity imo.

Old-bigot's network at play or not, I can't believe Sir Alex sticking his nose in to try and save the woeful Dunc's job. Unfortunately Mr Savage seems a bit star struck so is going along with it, for the moment anyway. There must surely be sounder reasons for him not getting the boot than that.

Savage from Savage.....................pity he missed the opportunity to use your final quote TBH

Hopefully they discover something more than just incompetence and we can see the Savage V Gardiner court case as we seek to ruin the man through financial damages

Not so sure as at the Scottish Open at Castle Stuart one year Alex Ferguson and Alan Savage seem to having a good friendly day out  definite connection.

The way he said SAF said to call him Alex made it sound to me like it was the first contact they'd had but fair enough if not. Can't see any other reason for him trying to save Dunc's job than the Ibrox connection though. Whatever the reason it's further proof his judgement of managers isn't exactly at the same level as his team management.

Savage said his expertise was confined to the employment agency business and didn't extend to property. Maybe the same applies to his nouse about football management.

What's the opposite of going bust, because that's what we're going. Lol at the absolute violation of Gardiner in this video.

Love this. A man with a lot of positivity and motivation to turn the ship around, slowly but surely. 

Gardiner really is an absolute serpent. 

Wishing ICT all the best. I wouldn't wish this on any fan of any club. Except Rangers.

Sir Alex is well known for sitting around calling other football folk in his retirement. Duncan'ts agent presumably is aware of this and called in a favour.

In an universally acknowledged decreasing dying industry where the only market is the elderly and the rest scan social media.

Extremely low marketing and publicity in a shrinking market though the scoops would have you think otherwise.

TV media journalism however pays well, maybe not enough, for the privilege, while last century's freeloads.

He 80 odd, he's probably getting Duncan mixed up with Darren.
