  1. He punched the fat git on a plane on the way back from a game in Europe IIRC.

    The 3-3 game it was. As I remember it Davie Robertson had a (perfectly good) goal disallowed, I reckon 95-6.

  2. Arrogant phudd. Colquhoun and Walker let him off too lightly. Maybe has loads of gossip and 'insider info' which makes him 'useful' as a journo but looking at him I doubt whether he ever played even amateur football.

  3. 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....

  4. 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:

  5. 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......

  6. 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.
