PRESS RELEASE

The Trust Board has issued the following statement today.

The board of the ICT Supporters' Trust last week contacted the ICT club board to express their concern regarding the current situation at the club. A meeting between both boards was also requested at this time.

On Friday of last week, the Trust was contacted by the club stating that George Fraser would like to meet with Trust Chairman, David Sutherland. This meeting took place that afternoon. A frank and forthright, but friendly, exchange of views took place.

It was clear at the time that the football club board remained fully supportive of team manager, Craig Brewster. Indeed, that is obviously still the case.

However, the whole board of the Supporters' Trust regrettably feels that the time has come for a change in team management. We are worried by what they have seen on the pitch, the club's proximity to the bottom of the table, apparent low morale, and no sign of a turn around in fortunes. Last Saturday's defeat to Aberdeen further strengthened these concerns.

Many different fans are sharing these concerns and have talked to us about them. Some have provided suggestions about what we as a Trust should or shouldn't be doing at this time. We are listening carefully to all these ideas as well as considering others of our own and will decide shortly how we wish to proceed.

Do continue to give the club your support. If you do have concerns, do not express them in a nasty or aggresive manner as we believe that right now it will be totally counter productive.
