The Mantis

You can understand that, mind you. The poster probably never had pubes the last time they won there.......

BBC says 'Adams fumes at penalty'. Seethes or fumes? Which word is best Terry's a gent. OK we won, but still a gent.

Obviously couldn't just shake TB's hand and leave it at that, wonder what the wee seethe said before he ran down the tunnel.

Watched it back umpteen times on Alba. Kova possibly gets 5% ball, 95% Taylor's ankle, but he doesn't alter the course of the ball. That's a pen in most games though isn't it? Contrast with the Meekings challenge in the first derby when he gets 100% ball but a foul is given for 'follow through'.

Nae me anyway, I'm in Magdeburg, fecking gutted at missing the game Are we not now safely in top six slot after Hibs being beaten last night? I think we are Mike but Statto will be along in a minute to correct me As I just said on the other thread: Incredibly we are still not quite over the line, yet. If all remaining results went against us, we could be level on points with 2 other teams with 5th, 6th and 7th then determined by goal difference - which would almost certainly be in our favour anyway. If Dundee Utd fail to win tomorrow we'll be officially top 6. Aye I forgot they had played a game less. D'oh!

Cheers, thought so.

Even in today's Herald Adams was saying we were happy with a point 2 weeks ago. Did he ask us then

Who were Russell and Mike on MFR?

Watch this space

Interesting stuff RIG. I assume it was requested by a Newco supporter but it's a bit confusing working out exactly what was requested and what was clarified, and why there's matches from St Mirren etc.

Saving money after 2 ICT games up north in a row. Spartans 1 Whitehill 2. South of Scotland Challenge Cup semi - more or less replaces the old Q-Cup. Winners play Dalbeattie Star.

We heard that he had jacked in the teaching to go full time, so he was probably better than level 5 anyway. We've had plenty of players from levels 4 and even 3 who couldn't hack it in the SPL.

and what did he say ? will never forget the reaction anyway lol There's been a few variations on this - Scotty and others asked him before. This week he thought it was along the lines of 'don't ask him to spell his name ref'

not impossible but highly improbable. As Mr Bannerman hinted above, it would probably take a computer to work out the permutations involved since all 9 clubs below us are involved in playing each other. All 9 would have to pass us while at the same time taking points off each other. So my gut feeling is that Mannie is right. Almost as complicated is whether we can be knocked out of the top six by 4 of the teams below us. They only have 4 games left, apart from St Johnstone who have 3. If you make top six you can't be relegated anyway...... I've done it in a spreadsheet, and we can still be relegated. On a more positive note, we can still win the title too. But in reality neither are going to happen. Wow! Most other folk waste their working day on Facebook What odds (or more likely probability) does your spreadsheet give on us making top 6?

Dennis Wyness Ross Tokely Charlie Christie Russell Duncan Steve Paterson Will probably change my mind tomorrow. Btw not living in Sneck, finally bumped into 10CC at the C(o)unty game and asked him what he said to Boner.......!

Feck off back to Canada, aye those were the days.........

Watching the highlights, County have loads of empty seats in the East Stand, not just at one end as I thought at the game. There was also a section in the West stand right at our end with hardly anybody in it.

Having seen the highlights, Vigurs could easily have got a red for that. Raven was booked for nowt. Also TB stayed in his tech area. Adams came over. No need. The Meekings claim was never a pen. He turned side on and the ball struck his shoulder. His arm was outstretched though so if it had struck his arm further down it should have been a spot kick. I presume the other claim was the one down the Jailend which they never showed. Definite pen from ShinniestaLite though. Derek the Seethe is truly a horrible, ungracious little man.

^^^^^^^^^^ What he said

A lot of fuss was made about selling out the whole library stadium. Both the East and West Stand had empty areas at the corner flags, nearest to us, could easily be 100 seats each. Also the wendy house had a couple of dozen spaces. OK I suppose it's normal for a few people to buy tx then not turn up. Caley100 and i just sat anywhere as we couldn't actually find our seats in row D. Mine was D159 (Caley100 might have had D160) but i sat in D144 in an aisle seat. The last block nearest the wendy house had less than 16 seats in a row (I counted but I forget now) so 159 and 160 couldn't have existed. There was a RCFC fan and his girlfriend on the Innes Bar bus and they said their seats in the East Stand didn't exist either.

Ironically it could turn out that the very first time we reach the top six could be the worst time finance-wise (apart from the prize money). Normally you'd expect one of the OF at home, plus possibly Hearts, Aberdeen, Hibs. This year, if the fixtures go to plan, we could be away at Celtic and County, and the home games could be the likes of killie and st. Johnstone. Better secure that second spot then.....

Rene, I haven't looked at their sleepy wee board for ages. Deleted it from my faves. Back in the day it was good to go there for a bit of banter and a wind up especially since every second thread is about us anyway. A few decent posters but too many bitter wee chippy guys. You know there's a problem when some people seethe too much to even say our name - they call us 'THEM' or 'The Scum' instead! Of course maybe it's just Adams signing up under a dozen usernames......
