The Mantis

Craig Nelson in his many guises but especially on May 15 2004 :thumb04: Willie McCulloch of East Fife (who remembers him?)

Cadgers Brae for us. Not really walking distance from the ground though.

The topic's about Brewster - get over it :D :P :021: :thumb04: :018: ;) :015:

Well at least yours is a sensible team unlike certain other dafties I still think Russeldinho's graft will be needed next week but we'll see how Kerr gets on if he's picked.

Not much sign of the staggies today?

Lucky it's TB that picks the team then. Duncan has to return after that garbage yesterday.

I think that's probably fair comment on the first half. TB spent the whole second half out on the track shouting at the players, probably because they weren't playing how he wanted.

Ya feckin beauty! Dynamic Earth

His predictions are usually right too!

He doesn't get stick on the park (well not much anyway). He's entitled to get stick here though as we question what he's costing us. Maybe it's part of the Brew master plan to get C(o)unty above us in the league.

What, showing Brew or showing C(o)unty :thumb04: :018: ;) :015: :D

Defending his selection in the team, or defending his 'simulation' yesterday? I can't see anybody doing the latter, except maybe Johnboy, & Stan who obviously has his tongue wedged in his cheek.

Just thinking aloud here - but the Midden have still to win a league game at the new place? League form is still poor. Form Table

Makes me cringe when people start counting points in advance. We already got bitten in the bum by assuming 3 points against Motherwell last week. Let's be honest, the next 10 games will be a tough scrap and dog-eat-dog. I think we've just got enough to pull clear but I'll be happy if it takes till the last week.

Scottish Cup attendances have been falsified since The Mantis was in nappies. See any number of threads on CTO. We do need to find another thousand fans for league games though, even if we do get a good bit more than Hamilton and that's in their first season up.

When you see a post from Renegade with Russell in the title you know what's coming. Just watched the highlights from yesterday and Russell can be ashamed of his conduct and his booking. Obviously Russell's not the best player in the SPL - Vigurs is like any other player: either getting carried away in an interview or misquoted. However anybody suggesting Russell doesn't do a job for us, especially in away games, either doesn't go to many games or needs his head looked.

Traynor still fancies us for the drop - just thought I'd mention it :thumb04: :018: ;)

I mentioned this myself. Was there in May when they beat MCFC 1-0 and the City fans made all the noise.

Young at heart though. Mind you, it wisnae me!

Not seen the highlights yet but I never thought Esson had much to do thanks to his back four. But ICT now, unlike under the muppets, are a TEAM. However anybody calling for Duncan to be dropped after last Saturday should have been there last night for their slice of humble pie.

Aye, great night. Happy days. Songs were great, nearly pished myself. Sounds like I was the only one singing 'Rangers till you die' as they all streamed out of the stadium. Must get my ears fixed ;) :thumb04: :018:

Ah, ze master plan :thumb04:

ICT managed to get the 10 000 seat rule overturned. It's time to work on the undersoil heating rule too. Instead of having it written into the rules that the club must have heating installed, just make it a rule that if they lose a match to the weather they get a heavy fine. Then they can do without heating if they like. Time to realise that parts of Scotland (eg Broadwood) get a lot of frost, others (eg TCS) do not.

Can't find anything but English football on the news of the screws site, obviously you must have bought it Bronson I think Imrie will have to spend a couple of years with us developing his game before he gets any moves. Can't fault the lad for confidence but he ain't the next Cowie yet.

If you'd offered me a point today at 3.00 I would have taken it. Let's start worrying once the 3 games against Midden, Falkirk and Killie are over. Motherwell are a good side.
