The Caley v Rangers under 17s

Inverness based Rangers fans will be frantically Googling their youth team players and the words to "The Billy Boys" so they can showcase their support for Ra Peepul.

The weight of the world is on Caley Thistle's shoulders.  If Rangers win, it justifies the colts in the competition and would intensify the demand for colt sides in the league system.  It is imperative, for Caley Thistle and for all of diddy Scottish football, that Inverness Caledonian Thistle win - and win well.

Shouldn't put pressure on ourselves like that.
They're just another club that we need to beat to reach a Cup Final.
Got to hand it to Rangers its millions being spent developing other club's future players.
So take a look this a shop window for next season as most of these players will be freed in May.


Shite.

He is absolutely correct. It’s embarrassing enough that rangers colts could even make it to the semi final, so for the best team left in the completion to lose to them would be beyond a joke. He didn’t even mention how utterly unbearable Rangers fans in Inverness would be (not that they aren’t already to be fair) if we get papped out of a cup semi final by there kids.

If we do lose this we deserve every bit of abuse/ridicule we will get from the rest of Scottish football for failing in our duties for the good of the game.

And that's true, of course.  Doesn't make it bad, either.

We will very likely have to bring in nearly half a squad in during the summer, I couldn't care less where they came from and probably nether would JR as long as they are the right players and are highly motivated to succeed. Inverness just seems like the right place for young players if they are prepared to put in the graft and learn.

Yes.  In contrast getting players beyond the colt/U19+ stage is near impossible at Ibrox so it's a good thing that our younger players are in the challenge cup - even if just to put them in the shop window.

Very good post m8, even if it is on that site.  The weight of the world is on our shoulders.  It is my hope and all those who are right-thinking, that good prevails over evil on the Lord's day.

Raith must be up there with the team we've played most in the cup in our history? 

Them and Celtic seem to have a magnetic force they draws them to The Caley when those balls fall into the bowl. (Obviously on this occasion it's clearly Raith we will play should we progress).
