THE SAVAGE TRUTH
2 hour 43 minutes Posted Oct 1, 2024 at 7:20 pm.
Headlines: Since last we did a podcast a lot has happened in the world. We talk about the big headlines: Trump, Oasis tickets, sausages and strictly.
Game by Game: Stenny and Cove: The boos rang out after the home draw with Stenny. We talk about what was one of the poorest showings this season, Lee tells us why he’s had enough, before we move on to Cove and a slightly better performance the week previous but the same result.
The Emergency Linesman/Assistant Referee: We are joined by the brilliant Jamie MacKinnon, who answered the call in the recent Cove home game and ended up running the line for 30 minutes! He gives us the lowdown on his experience.
Game by Game: Alloa, Stirling, and Queen of the South: A couple of wins in here but it feels like long ago. Alloa wasn’t too bad but we discuss how the points were thrown away.
Talk to Me: The Consultant Part 1: Savage in name but pragmatic in nature, Chairman of Inverness-based engineering recruitment business, Orion Group, former Chairman of ICTFC and now The Consultant talks about Investment, legal issues, crowds, the fan experience, land, and the council.
The Disruptors: The Cove game was interrupted by an injured ref, which put Jamie in an entirely unexpected position, but what other interruptions have there been in the beautiful game over the years or where have people popped up unexpectedly? Richie hart’s dog, Yogi Hughes naked, Darren Jackson, big holes, locusts, Tory politicians, Alsatians, injured pigeons, dead racoons, Gerard Butler, Nacho Novo, Rottweiler care, Henri Anier’s chat up lines, a big bag of condoms, and Jamie's Uncle.
The Supporter’s Trust: The Supporter’s Trust have had a long summer, having been heavily involved one way or another in the changes at the club, they’ve gained record membership numbers, been more public facing than any ICT fan group has ever been and are now running the bar at the ground. We caught up with Trust Vice-Chair Laura Grant.
Talk 2 Me: The Consultant Part 2: In this part Alan focuses on the Youth Academy, the return of old players, going to war, the club’s debt, his expectations on the football front, and ‘a reset.’ We then go off on a tangent and moan about the manager.
.00 THE A-WORD: We discuss Alan Savage’s recommendations to the board and take a very prophetic guess as to what they may be: administration, and what that might mean. What does ‘a reset’ mean in reality? Could we claw back a 15-point deduction?  We thought ‘something big is on the table’ and it looks like we were right.
Game by Game: We discuss who has the heating on before looking forward to Arbroath, Livingston, Annan, and Dumbarton
.41 Competition Time! The return of Competition time, in which you can win a kid’s 30th anniversary shirt. Courtesy of Mr Savage.
Final thoughts and bye for now
