The Mantis

Innes Bar. You'll recognise me by the lack of a pelt.

I don't suppose there's anywhere on the net you can access the commentary from BBC Radio Scotland? I just had a notion to use it as a ringtone :015: :015: :015:

Mr Job: Fawlty Towers was the best ever but you wouldn't ask JC to do stand-up at short notice either.

Why all the fuss about Barrowman? So far he's done no more than Iain Stewart.

More important matters: Macaroni Pies :021: :021: :021: :021: :021: Steak & Gravy Pies :021: :021: :021: :021:

There was a lot of talk of the gudgies being glad we left Cowie alone and took Rankin. Cowie's settled in very quickly too. Is it Chipper they call him? We'll have to get him a decent nickname. Mind you his old man was keen on winding up the Caley support :015:

Oh aye, care to share? I no longer know anything about the make-up of RunRig though I did once upon a time in the early eighties when there was still hope for them :001: That Calum bloke was a PE teacher with us away back then. And if you were lucky you could catch a sight of Donnie Munro's gorgeous wife in an equally gorgeous swimsuit at a pool near Dalkeith :010:

Mmmm, Haggis Chick or fish, Johnboy? Tough decision :023:

I take it that was you posting on SoS this morning RiG (on the Hearts-Hibs love-in thread :015:)

No replays in the League Cup, so get ready for a long night and pens if necessary :017:

I think people are taking The Office a bit for granted. It was made 6 years ago and was pretty ground breaking at the time.

Yep, well done to the wee County over the bridge. Top of the Highland League!

I think this is the first time I've ever been able to quote myself :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

One thing I've discovered about Tumilty- he's very strict and doesn't seem to want any banter a la Willie Young. He's the guy who sent off Blackie at Falkirk (mind you so would anybody else). I think he's got the makings of a decent ref though- he's still pretty young. BTW Tumilty was the same ref who was in charge when we beat DUFC with a Dargo goal right at the death. I met him that night at a birthday party, that's how I remember it. So if we get a late goal every time he gets us, he's welcome :022:

What a day I had :crazy07: :crazy07: :crazy07: :crazy07: Great craic in a full car coming up the road. A bottle of Ross-Shire's finest from the supporters' trust (cheers DJS), the messiah scores a late winner in his second coming, and I get my text read out on Traynor (what do you mean "who's the Mantis" you blimp :015: :015:). And I got a shot of Peter Paul's camera while he went for a pie. :015: :015: :015: Chances are I'll be on TV at the winner too after a crazy run down the front, what a sensible, respectable old chap :023: BTW ICT must be the only club in the world where the photographer gets his name chanted "Peter Paul, Peter Paul, Peter Paul":021: :021: :021:

Naw Dee, Mrs Mantis is though.

Is that based on inside info or just opinion? He's made one sub appearance this season.

Yes, I wondered when somebody would mention Haggis Chick :015: :015: :015:

:rotflmao: Or Hello Hello, or Hail Hail of course.

Everybody knows you bring your own little bit of sunshine to the Sneck :sunny01:

You should be happy enough with somebody inheriting your foreskin :014:

Rangers just equalised, sounds like a good game...

I thought Shakhtar were a joy to watch, shame the tims never even turned up :015: And yes, I think Rangers will get rogered tonight and finish bottom.

I'm sure there's a saying somewhere about pride comes before a chicken or something :029:
