Caley boss raring to go

Inverness manager Terry Butcher was grateful for the international break despite it coming straight after his team secured their first consecutive league victories of the season. Fifth-placed Inverness are looking for a hat-trick of Clydesdale Bank Premier League wins when they host St Johnstone on Saturday. Far from being disappointed with losing momentum following triumphs over St Mirren and Aberdeen, Butcher feels the break has allowed them to re-focus. Butcher, who will have Kevin McCann and Dani Sanchez available after injury, said: "A lot of players had three or four days off and we had a golf day as well for the ones who can walk. "They have come back sharp and hungry. It has really calmed then down after the Aberdeen game and being in the top six. "We want three wins on the trot, we want back-to-back home wins because after that we have four away matches out of five. Training has been of a really high intensity, it has been a bit ferocious at times. People have been flying into tackles, which shows the desire is there. We can`t wait for the first whistle."
