I Almost Lost My Bottle
We had our bags searched on the way into the Caley match this afternoon there was a bit of a fuss about the little plastic bottles of fruit juice that we'd brought for the Zedettes. We had to pour the contents into paper cups before we could go through the turnstiles.
I felt like a stronger drink as we got into the second half of the game and Inverness Caledonian Thistle were two-down to Falkirk. But then they staged the most remarkable comeback and ended up winning the game by three goals to two. We were all hoarse with cheering by the time we got into the car and listened to Jim Spence give the match report on Sportsound. He sounded as surprised by the final result as we were.
I was also surprised that there wasn't a bigger turnout of home suporters. Inverness are on good form at the moment, they beat Rangers last week and the weather is fairly good. The club work so hard to create a family-friendly atmosphere at the games, you wonder why there are still so many empty seats.
Of course, when you see the coaches heading down the A9 full of Rangers and Celtic fans, you begin to understand.
