The Mantis

Yip Yip !

An epic. Devoured it at a sitting though. Yip yip.

Alba Cup final 2009

Shoes off day!

Watched it on teletext 😂 Wouldn’t have travelled up for a midweek game on a school night at that time. Probably started with the United replay in 98.

😂 Where did you get your hands on that footage? Never seen it before. A great performance against a decent Dees side with Jim Duffy, Morton Weighorst, Gerry Britton, Neil Duffy and George Shaw. They had beaten us comfortably in the League Cup 3-0 at Dens.

The one blootered over was Davie Brennan. Caley got him from Shotts Bon Accord. The other one looked like Paul McKenzie and so did the one in normal time. Either him or John Scott. That earlier one looked tailor made for 10cc to take mind you, as he won it. The goal we did get is a reminder of what a classy player Danny MacDonald was. His career was tragically ruined by injuries.

Maybe put up a few movies when I run out of photies. I can think of one where you feature prominently

Just when you think you're running out of pics, you discover another folder...

Jock lives! Good to hear from you Jock 😎

Sure, it's been a shambles but the impression I get is that people from the outside are pointing the finger at Scot Gardiner as he has previous and apparently is a diehard currant bun. We're just seen as the mugs who took him on despite all the baggage, and (it has to be said), we were well warned. I am not judging him - just saying how it appears from things I've read.

Away man, that’s the sort of paranoia that Bannerman used to spout. At least when Fergie did it there was a point to it. If you read Pie & Bovril it’s the away trip of the season, even for Morton and Queens who regularly get thumped. It’s no fun for midweek replays In winter and the like, I’ll grant you that, but to say “most” never liked ICT is absolute nonsense.

That’s what I thought.

If that's the one that ended 6-2 I don't think any highlights exist. Christie and Robertson were the scorers and it was played at Brockville as Caley weren't obliged to play on the plastic at Annfield.

Thought that was Cowdenbeath for a minute 😂

Best one yet guys. Never realised two footballers could be so diplomatic but still tell you how it was 😉

At only 43 age is on his side. Hope he can make a full recovery.

Anybody guess what the bottom one is?

Probably says as much about me as Sean Welsh but I never saw him at all this season 😂

Especially when you remember that the 31 were probably the entire Dee support that day.

Been having a look at your channel. Terrific stuff. And lots more to come. What an amazing history the club has packed in, especially in the Cup. Just been reliving the Partick game from 2002 from my own stuff, what a game and great coverage of the team travelling down from a snowbound Inverness.That team would walk the Championship nowadays. Also the Clyde game in 2004.

Polly's finest hour 😎

Shifted from another thread. Old age doesn't come itself as you may or may not be aware 😉
