  1. I had a quick look Laurence but can't find any bigots having a go at you personally. I see one or two questioning your views but nobody's calling anybody names, apart from yourself. I suggest you use the 'report' button in future for specific users, rather than just rant at all the users, aka 'you lot' .
  2. Moyes? Big drop in wages I spose but then he's earning feck all right now!
  3. The Mantis replied to Big G's topic in Caley Thistle
    He's a qualified PE teacher as well isn't he?
  4. Not another Marks & Spencer thread
  5. Hope this link works. Thanks to Seoras for pointing it out: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152480115868688&set=a.10150137255263688.328968.669063687&type=1&theater
  6. Mind you one of the reasons he got relegated with us was not seeing off Hamilton at home post split.....
  7. What Johndo said plus best pie award
  8. Dont think we need to threaten Mantis. Doubt many will be there next time. Havent been kept back in for yonks now. Stewarding probably not quite as draconian as in the past but theres not doubt its the worst away day in the premiership. You will be missed at Celtic park -the whole 4 of you lol You bet we'll be missed Georgie Boy. Think how much the average IQ is gonna plummet.....
  9. Crowds may be on the low side but no it couldn't. An average gate of around 3,500? Usually around 200 in the south stand and when we get our higher attendances like 3.5k there tends to be 500 or so away fans, aberdeen celtic county etc Main stand only takes 2200, 1700 covered.
  10. A flash of the immortal Davie Cooper in the build-up here
  11. Giving your age away there (unless there's a Ted McMinn video out there somewhere )
  12. I think that was Wilson Robertson. ;-)
  13. Followed by 'he's fat, he's round, he's worth a million pound'
  14. The wee guy with the shorts up to his chest
  15. I think you should offer some of that in-play betting to keep the fallers interested. How many corners ICT will win. How many bookings. How many minutes till Billy scores again. Which club will be our glamour friendly. How many post-split games Naelifts will make it to.. Errr, hold on..... Which joke is the elusive 'Mantis third joke'? Does it involve a bus or is that the mythical 4th joke?

    For the record, can I just say that Kiss is garbage.
  17. http://youtu.be/net4Xw-Y-fc Hi Dougal, I'm sure it's hilarious but just to warn you I can't view it as I'm on holiday in the west of Lewis and the internet is hopeless. Home in 2 days:-( any burglars out there, my house is full of consumer goodies including a 42" Panasonic and a 27" iMac, and my home address is Global Energy Stadium, Dingwall, Midlothian.
  18. Dont think we need to threaten Mantis. Doubt many will be there next time. Havent been kept back in for yonks now. Stewarding probably not quite as draconian as in the past but theres not doubt its the worst away day in the premiership. Maybe I made it sound more like a threat than I intended...... I just meant that CFC might have been willing to make a goodwill gesture. Sadly, brushing us aside 6-0 wasn't enough for some people. It's a symptom of the mindset of OF fans that we're seen as supporting one side or the other. That's the only explanation for it, drums are associated with 'orangeness' and also we play in blue.
  19. One argument for having Deek's XI in the top six
  20. As regards the drum, there's probably a case for writing to Celtic FC with a hint that a future boycott may be in the offing. Don't know if they kept you behind at the end but I've not been there for a couple of years after we were kept in for 15 mins after a routine, boring 3-0 defeat, and also the time before that. Also I think Johndo or somebody else got ejected for very little, while the fans to our right were allowed to do as they pleased. That and the restricted views and the difficulties parking without getting annoyed by wee neds just about did it for me. Before Dougal comes along and brands me an 'Orc' I tend to avoid the other place too, though I was tempted back last year for the league cup game, and also the win in our relegation season which got us off the bottom. Not been spat on (yet?) by the Rangers lot, as against twice after beating Celtic.
  21. That's 13 points...... Yeah, getting 4 home games is a real bonus
  22. Atletico Madrid in the 60s had a player called Ufarte. How we laughed, with something called puberty still on the distant horizon. How the commentators got in a twist inventing new ways to pronounce it.
  23. TWO sendings off? Is he meaning Shinnie? The man's a fool. Even their fans admit they were second best on the night.

    Lets all laugh at Cownty
