a 4th consecutive season in the Championship, and Dundee United, being promoted to the Premiership. This was officially confirmed on 9 May 2020, after the SPFL announced there would be no league reconstruction as there was not enough support from Premiership sides. Inverness finished their season on 10 March with a 3–1 home win over Queen of the South. On 10 May, a strongly worded statement was released by the club, which agreed with multiple other clubs statements of the SPFL bullying clubs during the Season Ending Vote, and that officials were turning a blind eye to all reported cases. In early 2021, John Robertson left on compassionate leave due to a death in his family, and was subsequently replaced by interim manager Neil McCann, who took Inverness out of the relegation playoff zone into the top half and competing for promotion playoffs. Mascots In recent years, the club have embraced the trend of adopting an official mascot. These have included: ICaT – a play on the initials 'ICT', ICaT was designed from the winning drawing in a competition amongst Inverness school children. SuperSub – a Submarine sandwich in a Superhero costume was retired after Subway cancelled their sponsorship. Nessie – a 'Nessie' costume wearing the club's home kit. This creation has been rebranded as Lionel Nessi, in reference to international footballer Lionel Messi, and debuted at the 2018 Scottish Challenge Cup Final.
