""I just listened to the words and how they sort of fitted in to what the club is all about, and what we are trying to do. I played it to the boys one day in the dressing room before a game and it went down really well. I was really pleased because they understood the meaning of the song and we just used that as our song going forward. That's what we are trying to do - climb up the table, trying to get back to where we should be.""
""It's been a roller coaster.""
""We're going to have upsets along the way, but we've got to keep going.""
Inverness Caledonian Thistle faced a liquidation threat since October due to debts and risked relegation last season. The club exited administration last week and sits behind the league leaders only because of a five-point deduction imposed for financial difficulties. Head coach Scott Kellacher introduced Miley Cyrus's "The Climb" as a pre-match song after hearing its lyrics and feeling they matched the club's aims. Players embraced the song as a dressing-room ritual to reinforce persistence and ambition. The team seeks promotion to the Championship after relegation in May 2024, having started the season on minus five points following prior penalties.
