ICTFC Sporting Director John Robertson has today appealed to anyone who may have information on any Inverness Thistle players or management who were killed in the Great War 1914-1918
John said: ”We have been handed a document that records the name rank and date of death of 12 former Inverness Caledonian FC players in the Great War but despite contacting several agencies we have only managed to identify a couple of ex Thistle players who died serving their country.”
“We are very aware of the tremendous history that both Caledonian and Thistle had and what to embrace that going forward as we believe we are one great club with three great histories. We will be looking at various projects going forward to honour our proud history and on this one we need help.”
“To that end, I would like to appeal to any family, friends or relatives of any Caledonian and Thistle players who died to please contact the club with their information as we plan to make sure they are never forgotten.”
“Any information can be posted to myself at the club or emailed to admin@ictfc.co.uk”
