  1. Tyldesley- what a twat. Russeldinho, sorry I mean Ronaldinho, is lining up a free kick and he compares him to Johnnny Wilkinson :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:

    And not once at the end did they mention the Arse got a free kick for nowt.

    I've got nothing against Arsenal or any other English club but when these twats get going you just root for the oppo.

    Now the English national side- that's another story :016:

  2. mmm, seem to remember a few hundred Partick fans, Livingston Fans and St Mirren Fans doing it on our patch when they won the league !!!

    I must have missed the £ivi fans- that's the problem with having all those players on the pitch :015: :015: :015: :015:

  3. I have to confess I rather enjoyed it too. Unless Mileson did a real snow job, he comes across as a genuine down to earth fan and sponsors loads of teams.

    Let Gretna have their spell in the sun. Even if it's embarrassing that a wee team with no fans can reach our national cup final.

    Of course, it's easy not to be bitter when, unlike other teams, Gretna have never whupped ICT by 5 goals :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:

  4. Brewster was probably our best player and he raised the fitness levels after Robbo, who was reputed to be lax on fitness. He also changed the diets etc.

    But I think as a manager the verdict is 'not proven'.

  5. Mantis - is that no a wee bit harsh! We read what he posted and laughed.

    We took it completely tongue in cheek and an attempt to defuse the situation Jnr started?

    His tongue hasn't spent much time in his cheek before though has it! Let me say I was alerted to it by another admin and that's how I called it.

    Maybe you're right, but only the lad himself knows- let's see what he posts next time.....

  6. No, we were just talking about that yesterday, the Pars have never beaten ICT since div 1 days.

    Yesterday was like so many other Pars/ICT games at EEP. Pars had a strong first half, really fired up, no real idea though, ICT a bit lucky to be 0-0.

    Second half, ICT lift a gear, score, Pars heads go down, could have been 3-0 at the end.

    Never mind though, the Pars live to fight again next year, always good craic between both sets of fans, thank feck for £ivi :015: :015: :015: :015:

  7. Yeah, I had heard Dunc was a Howden Ender before, and I saw him on the terracing at TCS, before it was TCS of course.

    I think the tinks usually claim Charlie Kennedy as theirs. I actually met him a few years back but never thought to ask. Bit of a coincidence- the guy who was my best man had Charlie as his best man.

  8. It was a cruciate ligament injury. Aug 99. Ross went for the ball. I still have it on tape somewhere. His eyes follow the ball but it was a clumsy tackle. Rossco was new to div 1 and was off the pace if you ask me.

    The Midden players all surrounded the ref and pressured him, also the North Bank were going mental. We were the wee team with only a couple of hundred fans so he took the easy way out and produced an instant red to get them all off his back. Early in the game too.

    Since then the neanderthals boo any ICT player wearing no 2 whether it's Rossco or not.
