***Please note: Once again, we may be unable to offer live updated scores or stats from this game as it is blocked outside the UK and therefore unavailable to me or any of the other members of the "Overseas and Overlooked" group. If this is the case, the chatroom and this thread will be available but reports, stats and POY Polls etc will be published later.

In fact, it is likely that I wont bother going anywhere near a computer at game time as every single SPL game is blocked outside the UK tomorrow and I cant face 2 hours listening to repeated mutterings of "We are sorry, due to contractual reasons, we are unable to bring you the current programme. Normal service will be resumed soon".

Despite polite emails from both myself (several months ago) and at least one other member of the overseas group (over a week ago) asking polite questions about ICT establishing its own service for both overseas and indeed ALL fans, not a single email sent to ICT on this subject has ever been responded to (in contravention of their obligations under the club licensing scheme I might add) which is particularly galling given that its not just teams like Celtic, Rangers and Aberdeen who offer services available to ALL fans worldwide (or even in the UK), but also teams like Kilmarnock (who use the same provider as ICT), Falkirk (who have their own service) and even EAST STIRLINGSHIRE !!! (http://www.eaststirlingfc.co.uk/vidDatabase.php)

The BBC may be the bearer of these bad tidings but its Happy scrooge day to the SPL, ICT and every other team who needlessly block their games to people who have no alternative way of obtaining them ....

Winning (at home) and losing (away) v Falkirk is our lot at the moment.

Its great isn?t it!

Says a lot about you RIG, that you can summon up the energy to defend such a ridiculous quote.

Come now Sophia - surely that borders on personal abuse and we all know you don't like it coming your way so why dish it out if you can't take it?

When your opinion is consistantly negative even after 5 straight wins. Surely a 'fan' should be supportive of the team. Just a thought...

Everyone is entitled to their opinion whether you like it or not. I don't agree with a lot of the negativity on this site at times especially given the run we are on but I do agree that this result is more "the norm" for us. We aren't going to beat Celtic that often, and maybe you could argue Hearts as well, so you could argue it was something of a freak run we were on.

We don't have the greatest record against Falkirk, either Home or Away, so losing was no great surprise and therefore is more a return to the "normal" results that we have had against them in the past. Close games that can go either way that are often decided by one goal. Seems a pretty standard ICT v Falkirk affair to me.

Look at our record this season, almost equal number of wins and losses with the odd draw. After a 5 game winning streak a loss was going to come around sooner or later and, for want of a better phrase, this loss almost "fits in" with our season so far.

RiG,

I was actually commending you. Perhaps my focus on the written word was a little blurred by the sherry.

However, it?s good to see we agree.

for sure....

Yes, and I'm expressing my opinion. Gotta problem with that?

You are posting your usual 'holier than thou' comments though...

No. I fail to see why someone on this site should be attacked simply for posting their thoughts. Everyone is entitled to post what they think. If you don't agree with it fine. You don't need to get so worked up over it and start insulting them.

So when does 'expressing your opinions' become 'attacking someone'? I'd like your definition so that I know for the future.... And I've not insulted anyone.

What are you two squabling on this redundant old thread for..??

Remember 'tis the season of goodwill.... :018:

The topic of the thread's not the issue. RIG's constantly self-righteous attitude offends me just as much as the initial reason I posted. F@@#$  :001:

If you honestly cannot see where you've had a go at another fan in this thread then there really isn't much point debating this with you.

Everyone is going to have different opinions to one another, especially on here! So quit with the self righteous junk and accept that one ICT poster did not see the loss at Falkirk the same way you did.

If you wish to complain about any site users then the process for making a complaint are detailed in the Forum rules.

If you just want to argue with another user then take it to PM and save us all from having to suffer it.  That goes for EVERYONE, moderators included.
