will be looking forward to seeing if he squares up to anyone will never forget the game against hibs when he squared up to Rob Jones..... one of the funniest things i have seen in a long time up there with the time JJ took a lump out of our dugout

I feckin love TB. Hope both Rooney and the gaffer are still at ICT for (at least) another couple of seasons.

I hope he gets a warm welcome, I didnt have much time for him, he did however as said, played for the shirt. I will give him a clap when he comes on and join in with any positive chants towards him if there is any. I hope also that we do not have the same "toxic" chants towards him as Doogie had.

Well if I was in attendance I would be starting off a song of "Black,Black,Ian,Ian Black" from the North Stand" - acknowledging the response with raised hand applause and recognition - and then start off a chant of "Ian Black, yer such a feckin p****,Ian Black yer a horse's erse". I am shure that Blackie would appreciate the humour - even if the Stewrads didnt and I ended up in the Innes at ten past feckin three again. In all sewriousness Ian Black was a mini Tokely during his spell at the club and IMHO he died for the shirt - that gets him mega respect points from IHE.

I reckon that there are some women who would love to see Terry and Rooney somewhere feckin else next year

TB knows that we are unlikely to get that big a transfer pot for Rooney at Xmas and I am shure that he doesnt want him to walk in the summer. But from what I hear Rooney is actually a decent lad and feels he actually owes something to ICT. He also knows that he, as TB also points out, will still be a squad player yet at many of the places that he would wish to move on to. He must also be buoyed that he has got back in the international reckoning. Get him on a 2 year contract asap - he will repay it without doubt. My Stoke Boss stll is adamant that Stoke have first refusal but Adam wouldnt hit their first team yet anyway. As fer Nick Ross - why do so many have a downer on him. He looks a real prospect to me - of course he has beefing up and maturing to do - but he is as good a prospect as Barry Robson was. And way ahead of the likes of Rory. For once Scotland are getting it rite at Under 21 level - they are going fer talented individuals (OK mainly) who have SPL experience.

It is quite handy as the gate that they take yer money off you is the same gate that they throw you out of.

Nick Ross.

Seems like they've been going to 'start' negotiations for the last few months as it is. I won't be holding my breath over a new deal though. Any agent worth his salt would be advising the player to keep his options open till January. Unless Rooney LOVES it up here of course.
