    OK clue time - The Trossachs. Street View has it.
  2. The Mantis
    Even further
  3. The Mantis
    Big performance required tomorrow. Arbroath, Morton, Ayr all facing difficult away matches.
  4. The Mantis
    Maybe you’re right. I went back as far as page 60 but nothing similar there.
  5. The Mantis
    This is a looong way out of Sneck. Might take your mind off the team though
  6. The Mantis
    I’d even take the Pele years in div 1. We could beat anybody then. I’m nearly greeting at the state our club is in.

    Hoping. I've got hundreds of memories watching ICT since 1994 but if I go over the past 4 years all I can come up with is Tannadice in the Cup.
  8. The Mantis
    For me I just don't feel we're ICT any more. I've had this feeling that we're just another club since 2016. The magic has gone. This must be how it feels to support all the other clubs.

    A bit strange that Grant took about 10 minutes to do this as even a blind man knew that McCann would have them trying to keep possession at the back - even the two commentators were predicting it pre-match. But early on they just left us loads of space to get on with it.

    Yip, appreciate that. When I say a fit Doran, I don’t mean the player who has filled a jersey but has struggled through games when he’s obviously not fit. His whole career has been a bit tragic, although if it hadn’t, he wouldn’t have been with us. He’s still only 29, but I’m slowly coming round to the view that maybe we should cut our losses.
  11. The Mantis
    We'd be a different team if Doran and MacDonald were fit. It is what it is though.
  12. The Mantis
    Funny that, because I was just thinking earlier that it would be a nice little earner if I put a fiver on a draw each week for the rest of the season.
  13. The Mantis
    I think Arbroath will be right back in there. Although you could argue that they faced a QoS team today who seem to have found some sort of miracle.

    Better second half but still underwhelming, a bit embarrassing really shelling it up to Shane. Also really annoying how they always go back to Ridgers even when there's a spare man. He's a decent shot stopper but inevitably his distribution is poor so it's just squandering possession. Have to say Alloa very rarely resorted to the long hoof, far less nervous looking in their own box than us.
  15. The Mantis
    The boy got away from Brad there. Wonder if Devine is carrying a knock or McCann has just dropped him.
  16. The Mantis
    What’s Duffy doing over there?
  17. The Mantis
    Great goal. Out of the blue. Have to admit I was about to post that they were all over us. Hope we can build on this.
  18. The Mantis
    Looked like Alloa were happy to let us have it in our own half but not surprisingly they’re pressing harder now and we’re struggling to cope.... oops there’s a goal.
  19. The Mantis
    Ditto
  20. The Mantis
    Looks OK to me Robert. Had to re-register but looks like I'm on the right screen for when it starts.
  21. The Mantis
    Hopefully he’ll be cup-tied anyway although I wonder if there’s any precedent for this if it’s played after next season starts.
  22. The Mantis
    Surely he can score his customary goal on Tuesday before he goes. Apparently he's the no 1 danger man to the Rovers fans whoever he's at. Surely a shrewd piece of business that they should have done years ago... weaken your rivals like the OF have always done
  23. The Mantis
    (Cough... B*ck*e first ) Agreed. Carson is about the nearest, apart from maybe Devine. But that challenge on Craig Gordon was pure mental. Allardice is a big strong boy who can put himself about in midfield but he's rushed into a few rash tackles, he needs an experienced head alongside him talking him through it, and I'm not sure Sean Welsh is doing that, but happy to be proven wrong. But when Welsh hasn't played, he's always had another rookie alongside him. If the rumours about Keatings are true I feel we just have to stay up and give these young lads a chance to develop as the core of the side next year, along with any 33-year olds we can sign for the short term. I've felt for months that the playoffs are unlikely, 5th is about the ceiling for us this season but it could be far worse.
  24. The Mantis
    Wrong forum bud.

    :notembarrassedanymore: This is what I have... checked it on FF and Chrome too
