Team for Annan
I'd go with that, but swap Esson and Rooney over. Butcher for Duncan and Malpas for Stratford.

Inverness CT 1-3 Dundee United (FT)
Much better showing. Terry probly gave them whatfor after the other night. Nothing to add on the above, the new lads looked the business and if TerrynJune can get them working well together, we will see some happy sights next season. What about Lionel in Central Defence? dint he do well?

Dear Mr Butcher
Yeah! Butcher and Malpas must go! It starts here!

Delusions of grandeur
As frequently shown IHE has it right. We are a Div1 team until shown better, we have no right to be anywhere higher than bottom. Everything has to be earned. Much of the tone in here sounds like the the squabbling of children who have had there toy, the SPL, taken away from them, and don't know what to do next. Forget last season. The cloth has been cut for this new suit. Now is where it's at. Enjoy.

Matchday Thread: ICT -V- Montrose
I was relentlessly optimistic last time this season and I see no reason to break with that, so no bad notes today. The team seemed to come into their own in extra time, with Cox in particular putting himself about great style, the new Blackie. The RB Stratford didnt seem to do much wrong, and on accasions worked well with the no 7, in fact they both seemed to read each other better as the game went on. Lionel and Russel looked very animated. The no 11, Hayes? looked serioulsy threatening. Foran showed flashes of class. Nice seeing Richie getting a run at midfield. But - I should have guessed I couldnt do it... No finishers. Rooney seemed to be pulled out of position often. No one coming forward to help. Roy looked knackered. Supersub status beckons for him, again. Rosco gets caught out at centre, just doesnt read the game. Where Big Bobby had a few distribution tricks up his sleeve, Rosco has one. Where was The Eagle? Crap game, on paper we shoudl have buried them by 20 mins. If Terry can get the best perumtation out of that, then things may be well, but again, I feel it wont be pretty. Bring on The Arabs.

Radio Broadcasts at SFL Games
Would there not be problems for away games, presumably negotiations would have to be done on a per club basis. Wouldn't it be great if the whole SFL could come on board? Mind you, I suspect such organisation, would just be a gateway for big business. I would be delighted to pay a subscription, if I could get a streaming commentary on away games, especially, if I thought that the club could benefit from any excess beyond costs. Great idea, I will follow this one.

Clachnacuddin 1-6 Inverness CT (FT)
Quite a good ploy for Butcher though. He gets to see all three of his keepers in action. ICT had two keepers in action? No wonder we won!

A Message For Morais
He would probably find English easier to understand. In his interview after Partick we all expected half broken english and instead we got the most english accent possible. He speaks English with an estuary accent. I met him at Blockbusters where he was flicking through the adult section buying some ice cream. He is surprisingly short. Shame he has gone. He could have been the new Bingham.

Foran Wants 20+
Foran will score Odi will score Rooney will score Barrowboy will be found out

Mike Smith
I have had very brief dealings with MS, and can say that in my experience he was professional and honest. Think of him as having nothing to do with the football and as a business manager. And in that he has performed well.

Who'll Be The Top Scorer Next Season?
I think it will be that Irish Striker, Owen Ghoal.

Is Every Player To Ever Play For Ict
Haha. I saw Mike Teasdale in Elgin a few weeks ago, he was blowing his nose. Hope this helps.

Good on both counts.

Fan Tactics For Next Season
Classic blast from the past that!! runnys and stickys, Last touch or power counts... this is whats missing in todays football!! Not sure what "last touch" or "power counts" are, please explain. I recall "3 corners a penalty" and "headers, flicks or fancies" though.

Who Would You Bring Back?
At their best Barry Robson Paul Sheerin Brian Thompson

New Signings By Next Week
It sounds a bit mercenary, but for several reasons, there are many benefits in our being relegated the same season as the Stanta collapse. Ill wind etc.

May Not Be As Bad As We Think
I personally, am sick and tired of all the bitching and moaning over the least little thing, especially when it degenerates into personal attacks on named staff members or assertions by posters that this person or that person isnt worth their wage when the poster has feck all idea about what that staff member actually does. They might not get everything right, but I dont think any of them are doing it wrong on purpose, and I dont think most of us could/would do any better. Well spoken Scotty. There are a few folk on here that are quick to offer opinions on that which they know feck-all, and I dont mean footie. Bring on some blooming football, then we will have something proper to complain about.

Pre Merger?
I am a glory hunter and have only supported ICT since they got into the SPL, and now they are not in it, I will stop supporting them. btw this thread mings. Can anyone guess why?

Wood and Vigurs (including assault charge)
IF any football player is found guilty of a racist attack then it might be quite hard for a manager to integrate him into the multi-cultural makeup of the modern team. Therefore, he would not be a viable proposition and the manager would have done good business in letting him go. This would also make his employment in any other club quite insecure, no matter his talent or potantial. Also one of the posters on that teams website might have heard it alleged sometime ago that the player was a bad lot from a bad family in Kirkcaldy.

Disillusioned Or Not? (merged)
Didn't write, didn't phone! They just don't care.<sob> Get real! There are people with work to do over there, they cant tell us everytime someone goes to the bog! We have had news on Coxy's signing, the BOD changes, friendly fixtures, and the league dates. Surely that is enough to keep us going!
