In my humble opinion, based on my understanding of the definition of Racist...then no....its not racist, as he is not expressing an opinion that the people he takes the p1ss out of are inferior to him! I am sick of political correctness, its grossly misused in society these days!

My only concern about the Setanta collapse, is for the tasty chic that used to go around with the cameramen at games.

How did you manage to swap em Maimie? Am lumbered with 3 seats for u2, and i really wanna be on the pitch. Althought...they are decent seats it has to be sed.

There is also Gumtree and Craigslist you could try!

Just watched the Eric Joyce interview. Talk about poilticians answers! Seems you have to have quite a deceitful nature and general contempt for your constituants to be an MP. So much for the Criminal Investigation too. Upon further investigation....it seems it is merely a token gesture, hounding a few scapegoats to appear to be doing something. It merits far deeper scrutiny than it appears we are going to get. :)

The Buckie game i reffered to was in INverness...maybe it was in retaliation for that incident you reffered to DC, or perhaps the cause? I too remember the QC finals in Nairn and Elgin. Among the leaders/characters i remember in them days, were Scobbies, Mackies (RIP) Canyon, Claud and the likes. Were you pally with them?

Interesting you should say that Gringo Jnr...for...i was ripped apart the other night, coz I buy my kids sweets and i give them puddings. To put it into perspective....they get ONE sweet per day (like a pack of smarties) and ONE pudding a day, after dinner, which this weekend, is strawberry cornettos. But....she views that as not nescescary and spoiling them, so...a reason for her to pick a fight! I think she is a deeply unhappy person, and it is not going unoticed by the kids. JUst to back that up...she spent 4 yrs training as a nurse, landed her first proper job, and hadnt even managed a full year...before having to cut her hours to 20 per week...as she was struggling! So thats not a good sign

Nah.....the Buckie skirmish was a midweek game if i remember correctly. Loads of cops and police dogs ended up on the scene. The Blue Toon took place in sneck too. we chased em down towards Clach Park for some reason. Ad just like to add...that i wasnt really involved, more just an curious bystander. i always did let my nose lead me into bother

Thanx for all the support people. Im humbled. Id just like to clarifty tho....my ex isnt a bad mum as such. She does do fun stuff with them that i cant...like takes em to the beach......taken them abroad and stuff. But it is interspersed with behaviour i find hard to accept at times. i just wish she was more in touch with her motherly insticnt more than any of that other stuff. I remember her saying she wasnt wanting to have the same relationship she had with their mother, but, things are fast heading that way and she cant seem to see it. I wish she would get it into her head that they only get one childhood, and that shapes em for life But After our youngest was born...she changed beyond all recognition. I dont know what happened. She just seems to have lost interest in a lot of things. I dont understand it, as she has landed on her feet, got a rich boyfriend, who bought them a fancy house, and even a horse ffs.....all stuff she used to dream of.....and still she aint happy! We have an older son too.....who isnt technically mine, but i been his dad since he was four...and he has sed he would much rather live with me also. Its kinda sad that the kids feel this way. Ad be over the moon if the adored their mum too, but you would have to question why, kids that hadnt seen or heard from their mum in 10 days, are in no way pleased to see her....more upset about having to leave here. Honestly....i dont think ad stand a chance......all i can do at the end of the day, is continue what i am doing.

Being honest folks....the kids arent in any danger or anything where they are. They arent around drugs...or beaten or anything, Its just...well...their mother hasnt got as much interest in em as she should. So they arent really at risk And basically...the courts wouldnt entertain me based on that, judging from what i have read so far. They love being wi me....where they get loads of affection, attention if they want it and the freedom to be kids with me. They would be far happier here. (One time...even a nursery worker at playgroup said that to me) This morning..i said to Lewis...if he had one wish in the world, what would it be...and he said to stay with me.

Simple......TB leaves...we get compo.........and we make Robbo manager again! Ad be happy wi that:021:

I will be rosscoe....wen the time for munch is upon me. Will skip the chips...way too much for me, but will have coleslaw tho! A large kebab does me two days. I love cold food from fridge...tastes even better! And yeah Wyness101......that is indeed Maxx's your thinking off!

Well.....in an old book (might have been the Inverness Caledonian centenary special) or In A Different League by Rod Clyne (which incidentally...i believe now is worth a princely sum), it mentions a midweek game around the 80s, where there were 82 in attendance. Me and my mate were among em! I was Caley daft. Would sometimes go down on a sunday to help clean the ground, in the hope of finding a programme from the day befores game. More often than not, i did. Would reguarly attend training on a Monday and Thursday night and go chase the balls for em, and get rewarded with half an orange with the players at the break. I am like you DC....part of my passion for football went wen the merger came, and i dont think it will ever be recaptured to the same degree. Also got caught up in a few scraps over the years. Running battles with Buckie and Peterhead spring to mind, and yeah...Elgin was my most hated team. Funny how now i couldnt give a flying hoot about them. I hate Ross Co now

Thanks for that TM4TJ....gave Maxxs a phone.....they can Deliver my requirements between 5 and 11pm for ?7-70 in total Phoned that crappy 1st pizza direct.......for the nearest equivalent....would have cost me ?9-50. Coz they have a min order value of ?7 and the fookers lost the order...coz wat i wanted cost ?6-45! Sod Em! Maxs will be tastier anyhoo

Ok folks...was in town today,returning home from aquadome with kids....and i had a brainwave....well...more a hunger pang really. I started having a real desire to have a Kebab. So....my usual place (the last 2 times i had them) was Maxxs in the bus station. Went there.....closed, and i mean looked closed for a period of time. So...racked my brain, thought...the place on church street beside Ashers....went there, closed. Majorly Peed Off! So....where in Inverness does Kebab home deliveries (if anywhere) and if you could give me a price...EVEN BETTER! I am now determined to get one somehow. PS...am in Cradlehall Cheers!

Many thanks for your input people. got some thinking to do now. DewsburyDude....i might be in touch yet. Now i have slept on things, and the dust has settled, am a bit calmer. Doesnt change the fact that the wee ones are desperate to live wi me tho. Having looked into it a bit...it seems to have to be really bad for the kids for the courts to award custody to the dad.

Are you able to share how he managed that? Was it that the mother was just an unfit mother or was it just deemed that the kids be better with their dad?? Im curious to how he managed to win. Am at the stage where av had enuff of sitting back!

I was wondering...are there any single dads on here who have won custody of their Children?

Yeah Stevie, i would have rather kept Danny at the expense of Mike Smith AND Grassa. Danny is highly regarded.....the other two ICT could manage just fine without IMHO

The important thing is you support them now K. Hopefully you have the bug now and continue to back them even tho they have regressed for the first time ever, even tho its better fun in the lower leagues!!

Just got to wondering...before ICT came into being, where did your football loyalties lye.This isnt about Caley vs Thistle, Am just curious as to how many on here were actual regularly supporting (in the financial sense) Inverness football pre merger. Or, if you like...trying to to sniff out the glory hunters Or maybe you couldnt be arsed with the standard of footie on offer pre merger? If you came to support ICT, but have no link to Inverness...whats yer reason? I was a keen Caley fan since late 70s

ok...cool...so....what are his expenses likely to cost? can an educated guess be made based on any official figures?

Just came out in the news that Scotland Yard are to launch a Criminal Investigation into MPs expenses. Al wager.....it will waste yet more bucketloads of money and sod all will be done at the end of the day. And as for that publication of expenses yesterday....what a bloody p1ss take that was! So much for "transparency" eh!

I thought our DoF basically was on an expenses only agreement as it was.....which i thought totalled about ?50 000 last year?
