The Mantis

Any sign of Scotsport highlights this week? I'm disappointed not to see the assault on Marius by ?Berra and the keeper sliding out of his box a couple of minutes later.

The worst team ever to play in the SPL...... ..... and Gretna are pretty shyte too :rotflmao:

I know Russeldinho's passing can be a bit wayward at times but I'd have him more or less first name on the teamsheet every week.

I nominate Wanderer and Red Card :001:

Aye, not seen the penalty on TV yet but we all thought Marius 'won' it. What about the assault on him after 5 mins though? Anybody seen it yet?

Just in the door and still getting my breath back. What a game, full of incidents and we showed real class and guts to win it after it looked like the Jambos had nicked a point. Top six and well worth it. A noisy away support, everybody's hoarse. 5 in a row, merry feckin xmas!

Takes me back. It's just like playing Football manager on the ZX Spectrum....

I saw another of yours, St Anthony's, playing the other week against my local team, Bonnyrigg Rose....

I hope you support your local team :023:

Aye you forgot Broonie!

Give them one for me!

Congrats Junior (and CCC). I remember that day we lost a goal in the last minute at Ayr and I had to give you an arm round the shoulder as you were nearly greeting :015:

I suppose his solo effort against Stirling doesn't really count either. Another example of his pace and power. I'll always remember him coming on against Hearts this year and Rangers last Xmas and being involved in the winner. More pace and power but always as a sub. Sadly that's what he did best- if he got a start he was usually poor.

I thought Barry was taking the bye kicks that day.

Alan Duncan :015: :015: :015: :015: Think it'll catch on?

Just a quick tuppenceworth before I go out.... I've got a lot of respect for Levein but occasionally he gets it totally wrong. Playing the big diddy up front maybe worked once but today he was either fouling or getting caught offside. They did get a lot of the ball in the second half but we always seemed to do more with the possession than they did. I can't remember Mikey having a save to make but they did get a few free headers off target. The fans were doing a lot of howling for handballs in the box as there looked to be one or two ricochets off defenders. However the players weren't claiming and the fans never gave the ref any stick at the end. Well done to the guys today, a really decent performance all round. If we're going to play with 1 up again we'll need somebody with a bit more pace than Marius. His first touch was good but he would waste it by turning into defenders instead of laying it off. Maybe it's easier in the Champions' League.

guess i'm missing something scotty!! I sincerely hope you are

Quite often we've been in the Clepington?? which is on Clepington Road as you come in off the A90 and just 5 mins walk away from tannadeechay. Last season quite a few of us were in the Dundee FC supporters club which is sort of down the hill from the main stand and in around here somewhere

As I remember it, we were complaining about being gash this time last year, and Stirling was a break from the pressure. Bring it on....

Fair to say that we were robbed in the first game at the Midden this season anyway, so that evens it up.

Sorted your post DavieB- my bad :010: :010: :010: Now my post :001: Linlithgow away please. Went there today- nice pitch, just like Stirling last year. My mate plays for them and he's gash so an easy win. Then P*r*ick or C(o)unty in the next round.

Highlight of the night- Motson after 25 mins pinning his hopes on Andorra :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

I feel obliged to point out that it was 4-1. These **** have never beaten us 4-0 though we have beaten them 5-1. Obviously we were the better team on the day but lost 3 quick goals just before half time while **** Hastings was injured. :023:

I still have that on video too. In the south Q Cup final, Whitehill Welfare beat St Cuthberts 5-0 down at Annan. Bobby Wilson was down watching them for this Scottish Cup tie and I said to him at the end he would only have to put out 9 men against them :015: Later on he confessed that he had to try hard to hide from the players how poor St Cuthberts were. I suppose that was just in case they all went out on the piss the night before.
