  1. I never saw them coming out either (too early to expect them) but suddenly they were all just standing there on their tod - it's true the Midden were out ages after.
  2. It was kinda gut-wrenching watching Denzil in action on Saturday. We haven't had much chance to see him play in the last couple of years, yet there he was, just like in the old days under Pele, which he describes as probably the happiest in his career. Linking up, doing all the trademark shuffles and suchlike. Sticks in the craw to see him doing that in somebody else's colours. Ach feckit, I'm away for another drink......
  3. They got humped at Dingwall once in the league wearing all yellow, 1992. Never wore it again AFAIK.
  4. They're mostly shite, but I did like Greg Lake back in my studenty days. I've got a good download from Lambchop called '**** Christmas'.
  5. As an old fogey I got some old stuff on CD (all these downloaders mean you can get CDs for about 3 or 4 quid at Borders). Old Stuff: George Harrison - All Things Must Pass Neil Young - Harvest, Rust Never Sleeps Nick Drake - Pink Moon, Five Leaves Left New stuff: Regina Spektor The Chair

    :thumb04: :018: ;) Another County reject to join Barrowman
  8. Wyness not good enough? He looked good enough on Saturday when we were being ripped to pieces. Maybe he's got a boss who values him.
  9. Quite a busy week for me so far. I would expect to get an email off tonight or tomorrow night.
  10. The highlights don't show what a bright start we made. They do show a certain Mr Wyness helping to rip apart his old club.......
  11. Well I see Elgin are oot anyway. 2-1 to the Sons of Spart.
  12. You old fecker, make that trip this season.
  13. I don't see anybody laughing. Care to expand? By your lack of a reply to my question on the 'genius' thread, I take it you missed that gutless performance on Saturday. I've seen ICT play regularly since the East Stirling game back in 1994. Till now there's only been one direction - upward. Brewster and his assistant will take us back to div 1 and oblivion, just like our near neighbours. By all means disagree, but stop the patronising drivel and back up your arguments with a bit of substance. For all your complaints about people ganging up on Brewster I think there are more like me who have found this season so depressing they can hardly be bothered so are actually letting him off lightly. Now where's those avatars? I'm getting one. The Mantis (PRO-ICT).
  14. Wot no Duncan? Worth mentioning McGuire had a good saving tackle on Denzil in the first half at 0-0.
  15. The forum is remarkably quiet tonight. The manager and the muppet assistant are lucky it was an away game with just a couple of hundred there.
  16. Well I'll be up next week for the first home game in a while, just for the crack and the laughs, and to celebrate getting the holidays the day before, so let's stuff the Dons. I'm no letting the manager and his muppet assistant spoil my weekend though.
  17. Were you at the game today caller?
  18. There were hardly enough there to get a decent chant going. Everybody was so cold and scunnered by the end they just filed away. Played well for 15 mins then lost a goal on the break when McGuire was exposed trying to match Dornan for pace. Apart from lacking a bit of fitness, McGuire wasn't bad. I thought Duncan was our best player. Rooney was completely anonymous. Barrowman tried a bit more than usual but that's not saying much. I thought Blackie was quiet today and picked the wrong pass a lot. Proctor reasonable at LB but a total lack of belief in the whole team once we went a goal down. I thought the midfield was invisible in the second half but mind you they hardly got any ball, what with the back four just punting it back to the Midden every time they broke up an attack. Total mince, even worse than the Midden pies. Should have stayed in the Alamo. Denzil watch - well marshalled in the first half by McGuire and Proctor. Second half he got room to show the skills he's undoubtedly got and he was playing deep and picking us off. Taking the pish basically. Ah well thanks for the tickets at least Denzil. Dargo got on but had little time to inflict any damage. That's another dire Saturday over then. We're going down. Brew has to do us a favour and go now or our dear wee club is set to do a County.
  19. I thought this was a new thread ;) :thumb04: :018: I recognised the Boddies being off in the Hunting Lodge and the Killie pies being lukewarm from a fortnight ago........
  20. I'm washing mine tonight so I can make it tomorrow. Mr Naelifts will also be in attendance.
  21. Well, well, well....... Fancy coming in the away end tomorrow?
  22. Who was your best mate at primary school?
  23. As you once said of a more primitive offering of mine, a thing of rare beauty. Well done Gordy.
