Treatment of disabled fans at TCS
What, so being disabled (but confusing everybody by not making it clear in your earlier rant) entitles you to post a lot of sarcastic tripe? You're as bad as any of the 'adolescents' you're lecturing. Just for you, here's my favourite ancient joke: What's the difference between a Ross County fan and a pint of Murphy's? (hint- one of them isn't bitter)

crapest ground in scotland
You're probably right, ours is pretty crap for the EssPeeEll but a lot of visiting fans like it cos it's unusual and charming and all that cack. Plus this season they usually get a result to cheer them up...... Worst in Scotland though must be Central Park. Closely run by Cliftonhill and the Recs. One December I went to see ICT at Central Park. I think Santa on his sleigh in the High Street got a bigger crowd than the game.

Player Sponsorship
Me Guzz. Also Foggy and Compo I would imagine.

Caley Jags AND County in the SPL
I just don't think the market for football in the highlands is that big. There's only room for 1 top class side and that's speaking as somebody who loves the derbies. A few years ago when we were selling our best players and were struggling financially it looked like they might take over our position but it wasn't to be. We turned it around. Hate C(o)unty? Don't be daft. We are bigger and better so they hate us. Bitterly. That's how it works. For 12 years now they've been trying all kinds of propaganda, eg HFA, inflated crowds etc, to talk themselves up. All this while throwing money at the problem but now the chickens have come home to roost. But for a couple of circumstances it would have been Elgin anyway.

Favourite last gasp goals
The Blue Brazil game was actually 4-3 not 3-2. I remember Jimbo saving a pen against DUFC in the cup but not Rangers. It was a win at Stenny that set up the Rangers game in 95-6 when we were in div 3. DUFC was in 97-98 when we were at the arse end of div 2.

Who is going to the funeral next Saturday?
Quality IHE Don't think I'll be able to make it next week. Maybe I'll just send Robbo my tie in the post.

I met Mr Tumelty last night at a 21st birthday party. Amazing coincidence....... That was his first SPL match.

The Berwick 17...
OK, got it thanks to Ballistic Broadfoot. 5/8/95 Coca-Cola Cup. 1-1, 5-3 pens. I was in Ullapool en route to Lewis. 6/8/03 Bell's Cup. 0-1. It seems I was off to Shetland next day but cannae remember how I missed it other than domestic strife AKA Mrs Mantis
-
The Berwick 17...
Feck me. Now I'm confused. We lost on pens at Berwick in the league cup one August, right? Hendrie was manager. So when was the other game? More recent I think.

Caley Jags AND County in the SPL
WTF??? The Ajax fans have loads of insults but 'tinks' isn't one of them AFAIK. Oh wait a minute, you mean your WEEEEE team
-
The Berwick 17...
Nope, missed that one. Sitting in the ferry queue at Ullapool while they said it was going to penalties. Then on the boat, no radio and that was before I had a mobile. Had to phone somebody hours later. Nowadays I'd have Caley100 and Naelifts sending me call-collect texts every ten mins just to take the pish. Now, how about the Palmerston 28? I was there in a full carload. Wanderer, Naelifts & Roy.

Black injured - again
Oi! Feckin watch it or you'll get some rum in your nip. Rod's working and I've got a fair bit on myself so I probably won't bother this week.

Motherwell v ICT
Tidied it more like :shock:

Motherwell v ICT
Russeldinho MOM IMO :D Also thought Granty was rock solid. Hard working but not very inspired performance overall I thought. Poorer than usual travelling support, only 1 bus. 150 tops.
