    The problem with Inverness began when 3 clubs were amalgamated; Inverness Thistle, Inv. Caledonian and Inv. Clachnacudden. Consequently the public never really got behind the club and despite having a population of almost 70 thousand they really struggle to attract decent crowds.
    That being said, - living beyond your means in an attempt to attract a larger audience is no guarantee of success, - yet the same old - same old story is rolled out by Francis. The proof stares us in the face, - yet still some people would argue that it would be different in Dumfries.

    The answer is a resounding no, - we tried it once and were almost liquidated. The soution lies in fans contributing to a ring fenced fund for players, - which has been mentioned a few times on this board but I don't see Francis or anyone else clamouring to back that idea.
