The Mantis

Ach I feckin know he missed a few, I meant that night at F*rh*ll when he showed Dennis & co how to do it.....

As long as Fat Boab doesnae take to actually swimming in the sea, there's enough rising sea levels as it is.

What about Foxy's miss against Partick at 2-1? I'm sure we could have won that feckin cup last season if we'd got past those feckin hammerthrowers first :015: :015: :015: Mind you we could have let it go to a replay first then taken the Setanta money, if the feckers could learn to take a penalty like Barry Wilson....

He's a feckin Mantis :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:

How about changing your username to Arab4ayearortwo :023:

Blubble, blubble, blubble, blubble, blubble, blubble, blubble, blubble, blubble :009: :009: :009: :009: :009: :009: :009: :009:

That would explain why everybody prays for an trip away to Rangers or Celtic then :015: :015: :015:

It's been pay at the gate in the past. We get a big section which holds about 2000.

Don't really see what you're on about here, semi-final money is split 4 ways, earlier ties are shared.

Unbelievable- it's now 3-0 and possession is 61-39 in favour of the Pars. How bad can Rangers get? Doubt if the pars have scored 3 goals all season.

Nobody's mentioned Bayne hitting the post. Is that off or on target? But despite IHE's old mate the headless chicken moaning on the Binos forum about the lack of shots, ICT spent a lot of the game trying to walk it into the net, to copy what Dargo did with the first goal :001: :001: :001: They spent the second half in search of the perfect one-two...... I think Ayr charged us £10 last year, can't remember P*rt*ck though as my memory banks have obliterated all that, had to look up a book to check that we actually played the feckers. Anyway as somebody said, the clubs arrange it between them and I don't grudge £15 at Cup time. I think drawing Stirling paid off for us as they tried to play football against us, and it was a good pitch, as CC said in his interview. Those P*rt*ck feckers last year were more streetwise and **** Campbell just tried to stop us playing, that's usually how you beat a team from a higher league (mind you Morton did it the right way yesterday). If Albion do go up they might be a bit lightweight for div 1 and Moore might have to dig in a bit or take a few hidings. Revenge for Albion beating Caley 6-2 back in 1990, and also for Allan Moore being on the winning side in Caley's last ever Cup tie in 1992 :015: :015: :015:

OK, never realised the away stand was smaller. But still you're saying it was only about a third full? I reckon there was a section to the north end that was empty but walking about at half time there was hardly any space.......

Well obviously everybody's still on the road tonight. Just before I go out a special mention for the 3 Raith Rovers fans in our end today. The story is they thought they were playing Stirling in the league today....... surely a wind-up ? Also Johndo borrowing the loudhailer at half time to shout over to the binos who banned him from the website :015: :015: :015: :015: Mind you I think his timing was bad as there was music playing......

Yep, Denzil :allhail: All the moaners should remember that not so long ago it was a big deal for us to play the likes of Stirling in a league match. Now we're averaging 4900 in the SPL and they're getting 950 in div 2. All the CC critics have got nowt to complain about this week, a totally different performance and attitude from last year's sloppy displays against Ayr and P*rt*ck. The players did what they're paid for. Also- the crowd was announced as 1500 :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: Usual Scottish Cup fiddle. AFAIK each of these stands holds 1250. The home one was full so they let the overspill use the terracing. We must have had about a thousand in our stand. The true figure is about 2200. The only question for me is, are ICT being fiddled or are ICT in on the fiddle? :004: Anyway they're oot so I suppose they have to make a few bob. Roll on Deveronvale or Plastic Whistle.

Brilliant day out- Naelifts would have loved it :023:

Aye we all knew you'd be right Soolivan :021: But it was my reverse psychology that talked up Stirling and got the players fired up :001:

Your problem's with RiG's choice of phrase then, not with the rest of us :017: Also you're concentrating on the deals of last season, whereas most people's problem seems to go back to when ICT were in div 1. Anyway, no hard feelings, Utd are a good side now, time to get my coat on and off to Forthbank.

Sorry, but that's being a bit economical with the truth IIRC. There are others, less senile, who will remember the details better than I can but good old ET did it all on his lonesome? No vote? EDIT: Anyway, maybe he was driven by guilt from unsettling our team in div 1, and his 'temp help' McCall saying publicly that he's 'been in for the boy Robson, and will be back for him in the close season'? I'm not bitter, I realise it's just business, and anyway a lot of the animosity on here seems to be against Brew, not ET. I think the problem is yours, you just want everybody to like your cuddly wee club :015: :015: :015:

Well the Herald interview is nothing like that, sorry. Much as I hate the Sun, that bit you typed does actually have a better flow to it, while the Herald bit is all broken up.

And the signings?

You sound a bit that way yourself :023: I forgot, who were the 2 average signings?

You'll be looking for one of the old gits then if you don't know yourself?

Bit sad to see Russell Duncan taking Stirling for granted today in the Herald. Can't find it online, but he's on about how they fear nobody but Celtic in the cup, and 'if the draw goes our way we can go quite far.'I'm sure that'll be one for the Albion dressing room wall..... Last time that happened it was Charlie saying we could extend our 8 game unbeaten run for a good bit longer (before losing to Hibs next day). Before that it was Partick in the cup, and everybody on here talking about Hearts in the next round. One game at a time as they say :018:

More women then!

Culpable homicide...
