  1. Well it's not Robbo then. No real loss with GB leaving.
  2. Very blunt statement indeed. The old days are gone and I look forward to the new dawn. No more on this topic for me.
  3. Great news and I am well surprised. Future coach.
  4. You are mostly wrong to be fair but I agree with you on the Sevco job, once an Orc always an Orc in my opinion If Butcher does well at Hibs he will be the main man to take over from Sally who can't cut it at the top level Terry and Mo are taking a risk but they are right to state they are moving to a superior club, whether some of us agree with this or not we have to look at the facts 1. Our stadium is a joke compared to Easter Road, the atmosphere generated at both Edinburgh grounds can be really good compared to our sole less gaff. Both Easter road and Tynecastle are relatively city centre locations that embrace the local communities and bring the punters in. The Caledonian stadium embraces nothing other than the chilling wind from the Moray firth and the waft of turds from the dump 2. Our training facilities are shambolic, for a top club to travel 11miles or so to Fort George is not good enough, it's time our board have a look around Victoria park the next time we are through to see what excellent set up and facilities they have and see if we can possibly replicate something similar or be it maybe on a smaller scale 3. Our fanbase is also shameful, Butcher fired the warnings already he rightly stated this season on more than a few occasions that our home crowd is quiet and pitiful in numbers. It's sad but its true we are second in the SPL and in a semi for a cup yet we can only muster 2000 home fans through the gates. He sussed that the fanbase has now reached its peak at present and I think this was one of the main reasons he jump ship As usual the happy clappers won't like the above but it's time we all faced up to harsh reality, Terry and Mo have moved to a superior set up and by doing so they are furthering their managerial careers something we all would have done if we were all to be honest Unless the club change the direction they are going and address the above points they will be more Terry Butcher situations in the future I just hope the players can carry on like they were albeit without the gaffer but I do see an exodus in January and I'd be very surprised that Terry doesn't come back and raid the club despite what's being said in the press Dougal He knew what he was coming to when he joined, he didn't seem to mind then. Our ground is our ground, it won't change whilst numbers are low. We need to try and turn that to an advantage. Hibs training facilities are good indeed but are also 11 miles from their ground so distance my arse. Can't say their facilities have done them any good. Ours makes our team have to work harder and be fitter. Do remember most of the facilities in Dingwall are shared. We all knew he would leave but not in these circumstances. I am pretty certain he will regret it more than us!
  5. He clearly hasn't done his homework on Hibs. Those players will not take being worked hard. John Collins quit as they refused to train the hours he wanted. The players went to the chairman and he sided with them. It won't be different for TB.
  6. I think he will be away in January as he would probably sign a pre contract with Hibs anyway so may as well get some cash. Shame as I would like him to be the new mans number 2.
  7. No chance of this happening. The club rightly have said if you are interested then send a cv. Who does he think he is, Graeme Souness! It is similar to the Warnock thing, Lazlo is reminding people that he is out there looking for a job.
  8. Happy with the date as I can make it now but the kick off time is a disgrace. I can't think of a league cup semi that the BBC has broadcast live having a 1215 kick off? Certainly 1400 and 1500 but never 1215. Has that got something to do with the fact normally the semi involves the old filth? There is no logical reason for this and a good explanation is needed. As it is the SPFL however, there will be no logic!
  9. Glad I didn't call my wee boy Terry after all! Thanks for the roller coaster but I now hope you fail miserably and get sacked within the year.
  10. I will stick with the Larsson suggestion I made on the other thread.
  11. Jim Jefferies or Henrik Larson for me.
  12. Bt2 is on and free. Beer ready!
  13. If anyone has a live stream link they could pm me that would grand!
  14. Looks like only bt1 and bt2 is still chargeable.
  15. Not a big game for ICT. Around 900 is plenty. Don't want them getting extra pennies to their fighting fund. £6 million debt and all that.
  16. Totally agree with Joe. We spent long enough being the plastic Huns when it was Rangers and now it is the same with Sevco. Don't give me the rubbish that the guy took it as it was our team colours. It is taken knowing it will offend and we don't need our club being associated with the negative connotations. There are sadly racist bigots that follow our club and follow EVERY club in Scotland. We don't need you and Scottish football doesn't need you!
  17. We also play on the previous Sunday so makes no odds really if its Tuesday or Wednesday. Would like our game to be the week after in fairness etc.
  18. August or September 2008.
  19. Missed a great chance but good see him play.
  20. Great day at Gateshead and met some great fans. Biggest surprise was walking into the stadium and bumping into Garry Warren! What a gent he is.
  21. Please put me down again Scotty. I will sort out the cash one way or the other and will let you know.
  22. Chris Hogg played some pre-season games for Gateshead, but didn't get a deal in the end. Hereford gave us Ryan Esson and Marley Watkins, and also took Dan Stratford off our hands, so I know who I'd be supporting! We could make up the entire away support!
  23. The fact we only have 2 new players in the first 11 says a lot. There is consistency that we have not had for years. Add to that, Vincent being a far better player and a far more interested player than OTJ we are in a great place. Long may it continue.
  24. Gateshead v Hereford with Capital Caley and Red Card this weekend. Something different.
  25. When I first herds this I thought it was crazy but I very quickly changed my mind and believe it is a good bit of business from ICT. At least this is voluntary. How much are we FORCED to give Celtic when they played at ICT? This was also the same for Rangers when they existed. Did the Hearts fans show blind faith for Vlad? Certainly. They were going out of business anyway so anyone with cash was a messiah. Did Hearts cheat by brining in 2 players before the semi? Don't be daft. Should they have had considering they were skint? Certainly not. Was the Wilson ban issue their fault? Who knows, they appear to to have gone on them advice of then SFL. Did they cheat us to win? No, we fecked up against 10 men. Dragon, you opinion is your opinion and it is great to have a strong mindset. I just look at our club and if the gesture makes us a penny extra I am happy.
