  1. Unfortunately we do have a few knuckle draggers in the stands whom make it their responsibility to pick on Vigurs or Polworth depending on the wind direction. Even the Pars seemed impressed on their forum: Topic Originator: OzPar Date: Sat 28 Oct 16:01 Mulroney and Polworth have been excellent for the highlanders and I would struggle to pick any standouts on our side.
  2. Only singing when you're winning
  3. Also worth mentioning Ridgers who looked confident and able in goals.
  4. Hard to believe after the team and Polworths performace someone should pick on this. No mention of some of the terrific forward balls, hold up play a distribution including the link up play sending mulraney off like a rocket. A terrific team performance, every player put in a great shift.
  5. Absolutely, he has them playing as a team and with confidence. How many times did the defence hold up the ball and play it forward rather than punt it?
  6. Aren't Gophers flag-waving American jingoists?
  7. Admittedly I did cower at home following the abuse I heard at the QOS game but I'll be back this Saturday! I would expect we already have a replacement? There just isn't any money to go shopping so we have what we have. I really don't think we are in a position to offer pre-contracts or certainly not to players the manager wants.
  8. I merely modified a post at the request of Bughtmaster. I do understand your sensitivity to the post though, perhaps you could defend your posts (which could often be considered inflammatory or derisory) rather than attack the poster? On topic, it would seem Polo Chic might have some insider information and offering a contract would be pointless if he has already planned to leave for the benefit of his family. It would make sense to move in January rather than May.
  9. Dodds was on Sportsound on Saturday and said Roy M reads the RC forum so its reasonable to assume ICT staff and players occasionally wander in here. You don't have to look far to see the inflammatory and derisory posts from some people on here. Also, the abuse both players get from some home fans is pretty sickening too, why would they want to stay at ICTwhere fans hold them in such contempt?
  10. Dodds was on Spotsound on Saturday and said Roy M reads the RC forum so its reasonable to assume ICT staff and players occasionally wander in here. You don't have to look far to see the inflammatory and derisory posts that fly about the forum. Also, the abuse both players get from the home fans is pretty sickening too, why would they want to stay at ICT where the fans hold them in such contempt?
  11. The two most vilified players in the team? I bet they're counting down the days!
  12. You can see the way they are becoming a team by the way they all celebrated the goal. Hopefully it will give Jake a huge boost too.
  13. Sad to hear, he'll leave us with some fantastic memories and good times.
  14. The chant "you're only singing when you're winning," comes to mind. There may have been legitimate cause for concern but calling for the sacking of a new manager of a newly relegated team with little budget after a few games? It's like some people expect results and when it doesn't happen, players get abuse shouted at them, the team gets boo-ed and everyone takes offence like JR had taken a **** in their dinner! Absolutely. It's now really important that the home support get behind the team next week and not resort to shouting abuse etc
  15. Well you give yourself a big pat on the back and have a word with your GP if you really believe that constantly attacking the club and team on this forum is finally delivering good performances. It is John Robertson and the players who are turning things around with massive help from the away support. It will be interesting to see what happens when they play in front of the boo boys at home.
  16. All credit to the away support, great job. Hopefully the home support will do the same next week.
  17. I hope those calling for the head of JR are feeling a little embarrassed now! Absolutely delighted with the way the team are going and gelling, all credit to the manager.
  18. To be fair, Tremarco is one of the few players the club has been able to retain. Personally, I'm looking forward to the return of Doran, another key player from the Butcher era. I think it's too early to tell with the board whom I think are going in the right direction given the situation.
  19. Might be worth putting something in the local paper as there are only a few folk active on here?
  20. Unfortunately there are people whom have their own agendas which conflicts with the progress of the club. I am certain JR is giving 100% and will prove himself given time and support.
  21. The real fans will get behind the club, there is progress being made.
  22. Not sure it would be as simple as that, who would replace him? How long would they get? JR took over at a very difficult time and he didn't bring a magic wand. The confidence of the remaining team was shot to bits, battle weary from relegation and headless chicken management. Players were brought it on a small budget so it will take time to turn things around. Hopefully the last two games are something to work on and gain some traction.
  23. Still waiting on your evidence? I believe its irrefutable? :D
  24. No as I've stated before, after having to tolerate the bile some fans were spewing at the QOS game, I stayed away. I have however, had a first hand account of the "irrefutable facts," from the technical area so I know exactly what happened in full. Pumpfake is not a supporter, he is one of the wee fannies who caused all the trouble and has a constant boner about it. If you look back over all his posts you will see he takes every opportunity to attack the club. He got his wee feelings hurt and wants revenge, that simple. He may have been banned or excluded and his behaviour and motive may be questioned but no matter what I think of him, at least his mother loves Pumpfake :D
