Pre-Season Friendly/Testimonial @ Keith
I was talking to one of the linesmen and a Keith committe man in the pub last night. Charlie had a go at the ref at half time, asking about the first penalty claim that wasn't given. The linesman thought it was a stonewaller but the ref either didn't see it or was trying to give Keith a chance. I thought Keith were very well organised and it was a combination of giving away free kicks and pens plus tiredness that saw them off. Today Locos seemed to last the pace better but probably it was class that told in the end. I got some photies too but won't be putting them up tonight.

I know plenty Tims who don't rate Miller- with the quality they have in their (massive) squad it's not as if he has to even be a decent finisher, just the ability to put away one or two of the many chances that are laid on. It's pretty obvious to me that Kenny Miller's career has already peaked- either when Rangers signed him, or Wolves. If he was any good he would still be playing in the Prem. I can actually remember when Hibs farmed him out to Stenny. His two goals, both earned by his pace, were the only difference between Stenny and non-League Whitehill Welfare in a cup replay. Having said that, I'd sign him in a flash.

Apart from Barry's wallet being somewhat heavier, you could argue that his game has not progressed any more than if he had stayed here. When he left, we looked unlikely candidates for the SPL so moving away looked a good idea. However as Sophia says, he still has moments of madness. Maybe Pele would have got even more out of him than McCall or Levein or Brew.

Scotland U20
That was an embarrassment even without the mistakes by McNeill. We did look better when we came at them with pace in the passing rather than humping it long (where have we heard that before during last season :023: ). I suppose it was on the cards that when a nation the size of Japan got interested in fitba they were going to blow us away like most of the other bigger nations. I think if the ref had been European rather than Mexican he'd have done a bit more about the Japanese cheating and diving, there were times out there when it was like watching the Jambos :015: :015: He also seemed to have no idea about handball.

whats your average yearly spend on caley???
It's a shame mine doesn't all go to ICT. Most of it goes to the oil companies in petrol & diesel. Then there's the Ballinluig Motor Grill, Perth services shop and the FRB. Not to mention that mearlach Colin at the Innes :023:

Feck me that was quick! Well done ye auld git. Am I right in saying you could get multiple hits on the counter? Seems to work for me anyway.

Caley site (feeble excuse to increase hits)
Only a handful of hits to go before my site reaches 50 000 hits. See if you can get a screen grab with the magic 50 000 and I'll buy you a pint at the next game. In the event of a tie CaleyD is disqualified for using Photoshop :015: :015: :015:
