You've beaten us once in Inverness in all competitions. That one win was in January 2003 and Stewart Kean scored the only goal.

 

Thanks for sharing. Spotted myself in that footage.

Absolutely awful camerawork in that clip.  Wayyyy too zoomed in.

Anyway for this game in 2020, if Sutherland is back perhaps we'd benefit trying a 5-3-2.  I think MacGregor is still better off the bench and looks pretty ineffectual out wide.  I'll give Mckay another chance...for now and move McHattie centrally (where he seems better), giving Harper the chance as a wing back.  Then when he goes forward McHattie can shuffle over.  Something like this - 

Ridgers

Duffy Mckay Deas McHattie Harper

Vincent Welsh Allardice

Sutherland Keatings

We're not. We normally had a couple of cameras for home games for our own highlights but I guess they aren't any good for streaming games so we've gone for this SPFL "approved" Pixelott system. They had a test stream the other night against Cowdenbeath that seemed to generate mixed results. I'd definitely be logging on early on Saturday to see how it's working.

I was quite disappointed to see us going with the Pixelott camera.  Once again I imagine we're going with the cheap option.  Tuesday was okay - but it was nowhere near the quality of a proper camera.  It also managed to miss the first penalty and stuck some graphics on top of a couple of the ones after.  We've always had a proper cameraman in the past.  Why change now?

As I say I can only assume that they aren't good enough for streaming for whatever reason. I've no idea what the current equipment is like and whether it's good enough for streaming. Something the guys can ask Gardiner if he pops up on the ICT podcast again I guess. Here's hoping Saturday goes well but I am expecting problems...

Absolutely abysmal record considering how many times weve played there, and how many times Inverness have won at Somerset.  Score draw this weekend I reckon.

I'm holding off with any prediction until I see if we manage to bring in a couple of signings. 

Doesnt matter - its Inverness away so we arent gonna win whoever we sign haha.  And I'd be disappointed if we lost with the current squad....

I suppose... which is the unhappier hunting ground? The Caledonian Stadium or Palmerston Park?

We will win at both this season - bookmark this post.

We’re not doing too good on the injury front either! Hopefully we’ll get our long awaited win at Inverness, anyone know when we last won there? 

Jesus Christ got a lift over that day.

Is Zanatta injured  ?

 

Calves were a little tight , was rested to ensure  he did not miss more than one game , he has trained with team this week so far and should be back in squad on Saturday

If it's "good enough" for your own highlights then it's good enough for streaming. It's far more likely Inverness either don't want to front the cost of setting it up themselves (especially if the operation would be entirely commercial and they had no volunteer supporters to help with it) or had nobody appropriate to deal with it. The SPFL system is basically effort free from the club and although it's relatively expensive compared to doing it yourselves, the costs are deducted from income so don't need found up front.

Thanks. That would certainly tally with the clubs modus operandi these days...

Caley Thistle have a media team and a guy who seems to specialise in being the camera man. They’ve broadcasted matches abroad before on the club channel using the regular camera. As you say though, the SPFL set up is effort free which is very much the club’s way of doing things if they can get away with it.
