More on this later — right now, I’m in no state for writing. Five years and 190 matches in the top flight have come to an end for Caley Thistle. Ross Tokely’s sending-off in the first half had us at ten men, and though there were chances, Micheal Higdon had the only goal.

There are days that you can do no wrong, and it was that kind of day for Caley defender Ross Tokely. Winning everything in the air, perfectly timing tackles, and sinking the winning goal in a relegation six pointer. Those are the kind of days you remember.
Caley looked the better side for long [...]

The date is: 1-May-2009
Caley Thistle is: 4 points safe, sitting 11th above only Falkirk, and two points below Kilmarnock, St. Mirren and Hamilton.
We head to St. Mirren for the start of the post-split season tomorrow. This season’s final five matches are essentially a month-and-a-half-long relegation playoff, with five of the bottom six sides in [...]
