The Mantis

Feckin hard to take.

I'll send a text to rattle her heid

He's fae Tranent for fexake. That makes him a Belter :015: Fer a Tranent man he's remarkably civilised :010:

Back when these Predator boots came out, somebody was asking Davie Cooper if he was getting a pair, as they helped you bend the ball. Cooper said 'What? If I wear these things the ball will be hitting me on the back of the heid!'

Do you no remember Richie scoring a peach against the tinks? OK it was a bit short of 30 yards but what a cracker....

Hide in the academy all night then and jump the wall :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:

Probably Dalglish. Wonder how Durrant would've turned out without the injury. What a talent.

You're missing the point here. ICT have lost managers to bigger clubs, not sacked them.

Exactly, in May 1994 (I remember it well), but the miracle wasn't born till August. Otherwise, good answer- if you keep doing the homework you'll go far :015: :015: :015: If you're a native Dundonian guid luck to you. By the surprising gaps in your recent knowledge I was coming to the conclusion you were a young Sneckite who had jumped on the Utd bandwagon. Luck plays a part in the cups so a Scottish Cup or League Cup is always possible for either ICT or DUFC (see Hibs, Livi, Gretna, Hearts etc). But I doubt even Jim McLean could win Utd a championship these days. The glory days of Aberdeen, Utd, Killie etc are only a blip when you look at the history, but their fans haven't realised it yet...

Have you not got homework to finish? a) United have won ZERO since ICT were formed so ICT have actually won more :015: :015: :015: :015: b) Utd were lucky to have a class manager in the 80s (before you were born if I'm not mistaken). So I've seen more classy Utd players than you ever will. United are a diddy team just like ICT, get over it or support the Old Filth. c) ICT have only had 2 1/2 years in the top league so give it time. Winning the Scottish Cup as a div 3 side is a big ask even for a miracle like ICT even though we reached the quarters in 1996. d) It's pretty obvious you've never seen Utd lift anything apart from tatties at the allotments behind the East Stand. e) Support your local team! f) Get a feckin life! g) Get that homework done!

Aye, Dave Mackay of Caley Animals fame. I've got 'hats' but find it a bit turgid these days. You've got a good memory :015: :015: :015:

Still nearly 4 months left- hope we can score another goal or two before then :017:

I mind the name but that's about it. Was it Michael Marra used to sing 'Ah think yoooor great'?

That's quite enough Heilandee, you've already upset FW badly on that other thread....

Play Mike till season's end then decide if he's our no 1. If Mike gets injured play Barry or Calder or Thommo or Nicky Walker or anybody. Dunfermline will never match our points total and probably St Mirren won't either.

Quite right! Support your local team I say! You'd think you would feckin know that Mr Arab4amonthortwo :015:

What about the band Blue (no not those other cnuts :015:). They were signed to Elton John's Rocket label in the late 70s. A couple of hits with 'Capture Your Heart' and 'Little Jody' and then sank without trace. I found a 'best of' CD a couple of years ago, and, yes, it was shyt :015: Anybody want to buy it?

That manny's a feckin anorak.

I knew that Fish once, kent his faither even :001: Mark Knopfler :017: :017: :017:?

I'm a bit peed off that it says no nicknames. Naebody uses my real name, except Naelifts who thinks I'm called Sponging Barsteward. Off to change my name to The Mantis by deed poll.

Getting off topic, but one of the best gigs I ever saw was The Stranglers supported by The Skids at Dunfermline Kinema. Saw Gerry Rafferty once, but Rab Noakes came on for 15 mins and stole the show.

:015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: She'll feckin kill ya! I mind oor Gerry had a few good tunes, The Royal Mile, Night Owl, etc but that album City to City was a stormer.

Radar Love it wis Dee. Mind that woofter that played bass for the Sweet- Stevie Priest?

Even if I liked those feckers I would never say it in front of Mee :015 :015: :015: :015: :015: Only good thing about Runrig is, Donnie Munro used to live near us and his crackeen wife used the same swimming pool as I did :crazy04:

Unashamed, light poppy shyte only. No serious, heavy rock/jazz/prog/rap/punk etc allowed. Only songs you're almost embarrassed to mention. Buggles - Video Killed the Radio Star Wall Street Shuffle - 10CC Almost anything by Blondie Goodbye to Love - Carpenters Matthew & Son - Cat Stevens Easy - Commodores Distant Sun - Crowded House Dean Friedman - Ariel ELO - Livin' Thing The Air That I Breathe - The Hollies Jet - Wings Waterloo Sunset - The Kinks That'll do just now... OK I cheated, there's a couple there I'm not embarrassed about at all :023:
