No public money controlled by Hollyrood. Robison cant guarantee that HMRC wont settle for less than their owed by HMFC. Even Salmond seemed to be suggesting that HMRC should take recognitcion of HMFCs problems. Should ANY taxpayer settle for less than we are due?

He would wouldnt he given that he created the whole HMRC situation in the first place!

I think this question is best adressed after Saturdays Pars game.

You wonder why the attendence was so low? Well this story from someone I know might help. This person doesnt support ICT or Celtic but fancied watching a game. He went to the ticket office well before the game and was refused a ticket since they said he wasnt on the database althoug hes been to game's before. Then the ticket office person asked him, accusingly he felt, why he wanted to come to the game anyway. By the way, this wasn't somebody who arrived in green and white smelling of drink. He is a very senior professional person who works in Inverness but was refused entry and his motives questioned. I'm not sure if hell be back either.

Probably not since their meant to be flying up on Friday.

Difficult one to call since its all down to money. If there was going to be any danger of relagation which Im becoming more sure wont happen then would definately want to beat them in the league. Other than that its a case of what would bring in more cash, the extra league placings from three more points or the procedes from one or more extra rounds of the cup.

Ross County also have there own Acadamy and this is what he will be speaking about. This is often confused and taken as County claiming ownership of the HFA although Im sure this is an ambiguity County dont discorage.

Barrowman on fire? Didn't happen very often during his ICT days!

So these will be there because their goals against the OF then?

I heard on Radio Scotland this morning that the Junior FA have knocked them back for promotion even though theyve won the league because they havent got a pitch. I thought they were looking at the Highland council getting them a pitch at the Bught. I think they cant get the Meeting Park for the whole season because the cricket gets prioraty. So it looks as if cricket is more important in Inverness than having a football team in the junior Super League.

I dont for one minute think this is a carrot or was ever intended as one. Do you not think its more likely that TB made what he genuinely thought was the desicion but he immediatly realizes theres quite a lot of reaction against it from fans and so on when its made public. Then this is stoked up even further such as on this forum and by Grants goal and great performance so hes maybe wondering if a change of heart might actually be a decent idea. Also who knows what the reaction has been within the club.

Have to agree unless the short contrat suits both parties. Realisticly is Rooney going to sign up for more than a year here?

No its actually the TV companies.

TECKLE!!!!

Yes well thats something you would be very familier with isnt it?

Mr Milne, it seems, wants a 10 team SPL! http://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/Article.aspx/2062520

So Craig and Archie knocked it back. No surprise there then. At there time of life with there careers just about finished Id imagine they are quite delighted with there deal at Motherwell, sitting nice and handy in the top six with the fans loving them and with a good set up nice and near home. Why on EARTH should they want to go off up to Aberdeen sitting right at the bottom of the league and with no money and with a set of fans who will turn on them within half a dozen games if they dont start shooting up the league. I sometimes think Dons fans live in phantasyland. They still think their a big club and that managers will knock each other over to get in the door at Pittodrie. But what has realy happened is that they have slowly drifted down and down and are only a shadow of what they were. In that process they have gone through a shedload of managers and some of them quite good(such as Calderwood and Smith.) But because nobody has delivered what the Dons still seem to expect they have all got the dunt. You realy have to ask if the Dons job IS actually all that bigt a deal for any manager.

Watch this space.....

So it looks like the same thing as Shearer slagging off Pele the other week in the Sun. Just a stunt to plug his book and taking the most contravertial bits to get people to buy it.

In our six season's in the SPL have we ever had more than the 14 points we have now after 9 games? Any statto's around?

Tell you what i reckon. Mahonio is starting a whispering campaign on here to undermine Butcher becaus he wants the job himself!!!! The quote is a dead givaway, isnt it? Mahonio is your man! Either that or Terry should be REALLY worried becaus "mahonio" is actually DAVID F SUTHERLAND in disguise!

And with a million quid loss to get back up to the SPL Terry just raids his Monopaly set for the cash does he?

I took a look through one or two paper's and it was all the same. These were not reports about a match between two SPL teams. They were reports about Celtic. Interesting one in the Sunday Post where the reporter did go as far as to make comment about Johnny Hayes's early efforts down the "left flank". Jings crivens helpmaboab - that would be CELTICS left flank then! Says it all but I realy dont see anything worse in what was in the papers yesterday than in days gone by. PS - Celtic arent the champions.
