INVERNESS CALEY THISTLE were in crisis mode last season as they suffered relegation from the Scottish Championship after entering administration amid major cash woes.
But it's not all doom and gloom for the Highland club as they've since been crowned kings of Scotland - for having the cleanest TOILETS at their home ground the Caledonian Stadium.

Data compiled by comparison site SeatPick, calculated the average rating for Google reviews specifically mentioning toilets across the four leagues in the SPFL pyramid.
Stadiums with fewer than 100 Google reviews were omitted, leaving a total of 23 in the final analysis.
And coming out on top with perfect scores are the homes of two clubs who have both been struggling with financial worries in recent times, including Inverness Caley.
The Caledonian Stadium earned a perfect five out of five score from one review, alongside Broadwood Stadium - now home to Hamilton Accies - which received two perfect scores to see them share the bragging rights.
But Accies technically feature at the other end in the unwanted list, with New Douglas Park - now home to Clyde FC - being rated as having the DIRTIEST toilets of any Scottish football stadium.
The North Lanarkshire venue received a damning 1.33 out of five from four reviews, highlighting the need to improve the standards of facilities.
That ground is then followed by Premiership stadiums such as Dens Park and the Almondvale Stadium, which both take second and third place with scores of 1.89 and 2.32 respectively.
Partick Thistle's home ground Firhill and Pittodrie make up the top five with scores of 2.45 and 2.65, while New Firm rivals Dundee United come in sixth with Tannadice given 13 reviews with an average of 2.81.
Celtic Park and Hampden are both in the top 10 for DIRTIEST toilets too as the Hoops' home ground comes in tenth with 3.39, while Hampden is placed eighth with 3.06.
McDiarmid Park and Somerset Park make up the top 10 in seventh and ninth place respectively, with scores of 3.04 and 3.13.

In terms of the cleanest venues, along with the Caledonian Stadium and Broadwood, there is also praise for East Fife's Bayview, Morton's Cappielow and the Falkirk Stadium.
Bayview is third with 4.85 from two reviews, Cappielow has been given a strong 4.5 from four reviews and Falkirk earned an impressed 4.39 from three reviews.
Discussing the findings, CEO of SeatPick Gilad Zilberman said: "Stadium facilities play a crucial role in the overall fan experience at football matches. Our study shows significant variations in toilet quality across Scottish football grounds, with some venues clearly needing improvement.
"Clean and well-maintained toilets might seem like a minor detail, but they make a substantial difference to match day comfort, especially during half-time when facilities face peak demand.
'The study also revealed that newer stadiums generally scored better than historic grounds. Most venues with ratings above 4 were built or significantly renovated after 1990, indicating that modern design standards may include better toilet facilities.
"An interesting pattern emerged from the data showing that Scottish Premiership teams feature prominently among the worst-rated facilities, with four of the top five poorest toilet ratings belonging to top-flight clubs.
"This suggests that even the highest level of Scottish football doesn't guarantee quality amenities for fans."
