Terry Butcher questioned if Inverness deserved a team challenging at the top of the SPL after only 2,500 watched them draw against Kilmarnock.

Terry Butcher: Appeal to supporters

Driving wind and rain, and competition from television coverage of Real Madrid and Manchester United in the Champions League, did little to enhance the crowd.

But Butcher was disappointed with the 2,529 turnout for his side, who sit second in the Scottish Premier League and have scored 62 goals this season.

However, they have the second lowest average attendance (4,017) in the SPL, greater only than St Johnstone and less than their Highland rivals, top-flight debutants Ross County.

Butcher, who was annoyed his side had failed to see out a deserved victory after Borja Perez earned Killie a 1-1 draw in the final minute, said: "I honestly don't know how much more we can do.

"We played some of the best football of the season.

"I know it's difficult weather, but I don't know how much more we can do.

"Does this city deserve a football team like we've got? I don't know.

"We cannot do any more - second in the table, could have gone three points clear of our nearest rivals for second place with eight games to go before the split."

m curious as to what image Real Madrid are trying to re-establish as I always thought their pre-Jose image was one of a bunch of a classless bullies tapping up whoever they wanted while living it large on borrowed money they're never going to pay back.

aniel Storey generally did very well, going against the City won it last year so they're bound to win it this time grain. As for John Nicholson, I wouldn't trust him to predict correctly what day of the week it will be tomorrow.
