The Mantis

OFSTED.

I mean things that keep getting mentioned on the "BBC" that have nothing to do with us, but they just forget to say.....

You just beat me to it Charles, I was going to say that Kingsmills would be along to put us right, but I thought they were both 'defamation' in Scotland.

How about a list of things we don't have in Scotland:

Vicars

St John's Ambulance Service

Barristers

RSPCA

More??

I'm sure I've been in that restaurant thingy before a game. It was walking distance. Is it like one of these Brewer's Fayre type of pubs?

He's changed his mind. It's Wattie Smith now  :001:

Mate of mine with Rangers connections is mentioning Billy Davies

That was Naelifts at Broadwood. I would never have the brass neck. The fecker was haggling with the guy at Falkirk on Saturday- 'Four quid? Tell you what, I'll give you two quid and say no more about it'  :015: :015: :015: He always used to haggle with programme sellers too.

I don't remember it being free. In div 2 we used to hand the boy a 20 as he never had enough change, they certainly never made much off our travelling support.

Is that you on top of the Cobbler in your wee piccie thing there Mantis?

Spent many a fine day climbing, summer and winter, there(some miserable ones too!).

Aye, got it in one Davie. Many good days out there masel.

I mind seeing Corcoran running riot when youse played Motherwell in the cup, but hardly heard of him since.

What, so Fletcher does the holding job now?

What about IHE and Cyril the Squirrel having a square go in the centre circle?

Was cleaning out a cupboard of old videos today, came across County (including a very young Barry Wilson) beating Forfar (with Bobby Mann and David Bingham).

Wyness is a lazy git and Dargos finishing looks like he has his boots on the wrong feet. At least Graham Bayne gives you everything he has in every game.

It's no good Rory. Face it, you'll never get back in the team now  :015: :015: :015: :015:

It's Brimsie McAllister  :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:

Signed by Greigy after getting 2 goals in a game that finished 6-3. Urq also scored a cracker of a winner after about 87 mins in the 1984 game away to Stirling. Albion had already printed the programmes since the Rangers match was on the following Saturday.

I'm pretty sure we'll be sitting opposite the tunnel just like the old days.

The terracing'll no be open unless we suddenly find a couple of thousand travelling fans, ie get about 50 buses waiting in the centre of Sneck with signs on the front saying courtesy bus to tesco.

Well you would spend the same amount on petrol getting here to Mantis Towers, Mantopolis.

But I know for a fact that caley100 got a nice prezzy on the 25th and he lives not far from you  :023:

- the 'compilation' DVD, if I remember correctly was advertised long before we had received an official communication from the SPL regarding copyrighted material and certainly before they started going after people in the courts.

And it was 'pulled' very soon afterwards, so no special treatment for me Mee  :023:

Aye come back ya grumpy auld get.

I've been rationing a bottle of 25 yo Caol Ila from last year but it's got 1 dram left in it, well till tonight at the latest.

I got a bottle of cask strength Benrinnes from Santa but there's a bottle of cask Clynelish in the queue first.

Bestest wishes to everybody on here. Won't be struggling up to the Sneck today so make it 3 points for all of us keeping in touch by text at the dreaded family gatherings  :014:

Can't decide whether that's teriboll or oribell  :001:

Fecks sake clacher, no need to rewrite War and Peace, did you start your new year celebrations early  :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:

All I was saying is, I disagree with this bit:

these guys have got a **** of alot more ability than him and are proving it at a level he couldnt hack it at.

Unless it was chibber you wrote all that for of course  :014:

so its water for me tonight and forever more

:015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:
