Every time this topic comes up I always suggest this one : No one ever plays it though!

Can I put it to you that you can't revive an old regional language, all you can do is slow down its inevitable decline.

To the tune of Songe Bob Squarepants We play at the stadium down by the sea Ca-ley This-tle, Tokley Munro Shinnie Gillet (who's he?) Ca-ley This-tle, It isn't a fortress but once was a dump Ca-ley This-tle, We could be winners or we could get humped Ca-ley This-tle, Ca-ley This-tle, Ca-ley This-tle, Ca-ley This-tle, Ca-ley This-tle, Ca-ley This-tle, Ca-ley This-tle, Ca-ley This-tle, Ca-ley This-tle, Ca-ley This-tle!

highland cathedral !

Yes Ryan Esson has been in excellent form but so has Cammy Bell, Someone who is considerably younger and is probably a good prospect for the future. Thats why he gets in first IMO.

That's how i read it. St. Mirren Park will be deathly silent without Rosscoe.

Hopefully she'll call it being off...

Let's wait for Miss ICTs input n we will go with the opposite ;-)

Well after tonights results. I think there is one place to fight for. I presume the following will pull away 3rd - Hearts (good strong sqaud) 4th - Dundee Utd (starting to find form after slow start, plenty games in hand) 5th - Killie (despite losing sammon have good creative midfielders to pick up enough points) Leaving ourselves, motherwell, st johnstone and aberdeen to fight it out for final place - we have added to our squad and kept rooney, two postitives - motherwell have lost blackman - big loss - st j - similar squad - aberdeen - kept maguire added blackman and a few experienced players but furthest behind going to be close, unfortunately if i was a betting man i would go with the dons to pip 6th place on final matchday.

It's true.... Great signing. This will certainly help us through the Tokely and Munro suspensions. Read all about him.

There is sooooooooooooooooooo much money swooshing about in the pot (that's crappy red case the chancellor carries, duh) that it's not worth arguing about. The world would be cheaper to run if we all spoke the same language, used the same currency and moved left handed people to their own colony, but we don't do that. Why pick on Gaelic all the time? There are many other things, that cost a lot more that we should worry about. How many kids up and down the UK learn History? Whats the point on that? Why do they need to know whats happened? How many learn music? There's LOADS of musicians already, so we don't need to waste money on that. If we are to get absolute value for every education pound spent, students just need to learn to count to 1'000'000, learn the oxford dictionary, and maybe driving lessons. No one needs anything else, as they can learn it on the job. Anyway, why should MY taxes get spent on teaching people to be a better employment prospect than me? That's backwards.

This! :twothumbsup:

You want it, you pay for it.

I tried to let go...but Gaelic is such a bugbear for me :P Gaelic is not "our culture"....it came over with the Irish. As i have sed numerous times....Pictish, Nordic,Old English and Cumbric ALL predate Gaelic in Scotlands history, but we dont see money being thrown at them or demands being made left right and centre in support of them languages...yet they are every bit as relevant in Scotlands history.

Can I put it to you that you can't revive an old regional language, all you can do is slow down its inevitable decline. My eldest daughter was in a class of 5 when she started Gaelic Medium. My youngest started in a class of 18. I think your point is pretty fair and accept there is a battle to be had to revive but I feel it's worth it. The interesting part of this whole debate is the fact we have one. It really should be a "no brainer" that you support you culture. It is in most other parts of the world, why is it problematic here? We find money to kill people without difficulty!

I dont think anyone was interested in Rooney at all , looked more like ICT trying to cash in on his early season form and engineer a transfer .

Every one of those games are winnable

Highland Cathedral is a wrist slittingly dull and lifeless song! As i have sed before, I reckon...given our location....we should run out to Waterfront by Simple Minsds

It definatley shouldnt be anything to do with traditional scottish music...... just because we're in the Highlands it doesnt mean we have to live up to the usual stereotypes. What about Ecstacy of Gold by Ennio Morricone or Dont Look Back into the sun by the Libertines? Would love a muse song but it would be more suited to an evacuation of the planet and setting up a new civilisation than a football match!!
