The Mantis

Eliza in 'older than Mantis' shocker (but younger than Bannerman).

Oh yes it is :moon03: :moon03: :moon03: :moon03: :moon03:

Aye but we like the average waist size to be below 65 too.

Let's not start all that 'the first division is better than the SPL' nonsense. That's the sort of garbage the C(o)unty fans come up with. The SPL is the only place to be.

The guy who wished him dead was not an ICT fan IIRC, just a visitor from another club. I think Brew's effect will be to get us above Gretna, which will be mission accomplished in my eyes. We can worry about the long term later on. Who knows, maybe his layoff from management has given him time to rethink how the game should be played. The last manager where we didn't moan forever about dull route 1 football was Pele. I respect the views of others who say they won't be back, but it's a game of fitba FFS.

Me & Naelifts- and I believe the Wanderer from China will grace us with his presence.

Missed the game today, and apart from the result it's just as well. My mate Dougie was going up. He only got to Ballinluig by 1.30 and turned back. Anyway, they should put one of those playercams on Russell. He gets through a feckin unbelievable amount of work. But you're right. He can't pass.

Bit of a contradiction n'est-ce pas? BTW anybody would become a monk if they only had Dundeh hairies to look forward to for the next 4 years

I'll try emailing the BBC. Edited- ah well at least they're acknowledging the problem.

Can only get the Hibs game at the mo :019:

Had one or two 500 errors myself this week. Have to say the functionality on this site is sooooperb though, keep discovering new functions (including the one just above!). Haven't heard Feyenoord crowing about TJE site for a while either, seems pretty basic compared to this.

Lothian and Borders crew can usually manage to fill a car :crazy07:

That Europe thing will never catch on :015 :015: :015:

I travelled up for that East Fife game (think it was a Cherry o.g.). I remember standing there as a goggle-eyed teenager and getting some old buffer to sign my copy. It's Mainwaring BTW :004:

Back in 1975 on my crappy record player I thought he was singin 'Before he got his hands across your stapler' :015: :015: :015: Dragged Mr Naelifts along to see him last year.

I hate to be pedantic as you well know Mannie, but it's actually 801 extra pixels :blah01:

Fresher's week is fast approaching. The wee Arab will soon lose his cherry and everything will be OK.

He doesn't need a number 2. He IS a number 2 :004:

Hello, good to be back.

'Allo. Well the time's gettin' hard for you little girl I'm a hummin' an' a strummin' all over God's world.

Management trainee, Brown Brothers Ltd, Aug 1976. ?2076 p.a. But I did get 75p a week as a paperboy around 1970.

The thought of Pele at ICT gives me a warm glow :010 :010: :010: :010: :010: That guy gave us some of the best days of our lives. Who knows what state his head's in these days? What do the Tete-de-Pierre fans think?

Somehow Alan I get the idea they will be unfamiliar with the concept of 'Methil'..... I'll bow to Scotty's Superior (sorry, bad pun) knowledge and give my tuppence worth. I stayed 3 weeks in Kitchener, Ontario, which is a sort of twin star with Waterloo. That meant Niagara, Toronto and Tobermory on Lake Huron were all quite driveable. The Skydome is a magic experience, especially at night. Almost as good as Dens Park. I have to say Kitchener was the epitome of bland but never mind. I was encouraged to drive 10 hours north to Timmins where apparently the flat scenery of Ontario would change, and this was the home of the unknown Shania Twain who I was assured would be the next big thing. However I think we will visit Montreal or Vancouver for a big anniversary sometime.....

I agree with ymip. Fat John, Skinny John, Barmy Army
