  1. 1. How many roads must a man walk down, Terry, before you can call him a man? (And don't say the answer, gordyfromsneck, is blowing in the wind, cos that just shows your not trying.) 2. Your granny's cooking when you were a child. Heaven or hell?
  2. So that's it started then. Next?
  3. Comedy moment was when Proctor arrived and was playing RB against them - Tokers was suspended. The Smirrens booed him every time he got the ball until mid-way thorugh the second half, when some of them caught on. Poor Bambi - Ive just come here and already I am hated!
  4. People forget that a few seasons ago Les was nip and tuck with Jim Calder as 1st choice goalie. They swapped jerseys regularly, until that fateful day against Ayr, I think, when Les' confidence cracked and he couldn't save a penny. He was never the same after that, but may still have the knowhow to be an excellent goalie coach. And more to the point would probably be cheap.
  5. And Calderballs to come here? That would be interesting... I can't stand the guy but you can't argue with his track record. No. WGS has expresssed an interest in this post. I have it on good authority from a board member.
  6. We will not, of course be an SPl club next season, but starting as promotion favourites must gaurantee us some cherry-picking privileges amongst other clubs, including our Div 1 rivals. I would expect TnJ to use English connections to bring in some exciting new talents to the Scottish game. Looking forward to it.
  7. In which case Terry n June would do well to remember the "Curse of the ICT ex-managers", currently affecting Brew suffering untellable torments at Viccy Park.
  8. The first home win after TerrynJune took over. Killie I think. I just remember there being a sense of relief and optimism. Yeah, I know.
  9. As opposed to a consolidate-and-build policy, which was what we had last time we were shifted to Div 1. It is a risky strategy, but, by gosh, it might just work.
  10. I think this is wise and do-able. As has been stated elsewhere, never has a team been relegated on so many points, never so good a side. The more that Terry has to spend, and he will spend wisely, the better. But lets not go bankrupt eh? Top six, 10/11!
  11. Yes, indeed. Fun times ahead in Seagull Central.
  12. When the season started I recall myself saying to Mr Biro..."I think we will surprise a lot of folk this season". I meant it in a good way, but was really trying to cover up my shock at Brewster leaving us with no recognised strikers. This was his first and most fatal mistake.
  13. :D Really??? Thats a fecking joke This catering belongs in the first division. So they'll be with us then Who moved my thread and why. It ticked all the boxes!
  14. As of now, there will be no such thing as a friendly football match.
  15. hahaha div 2 beckons They are comitted to TnJ for at least another 12 months, is that not so. Otherwise, I think the whole SPL thing was just some sharks thinking that they could make some quick bucks, by gambling and failing miserably...per Livi and Gretna. The details will never be revealled, but if so, they shoud hang their heads in shame for the setback they have put the proud City of Sneck through, they should be forced to resign.
  16. Drnks allowed... Roscoe - 8 pints and a dram Foran - four pints and two drams and a packet of scampi fries Odiambo - Cuba Libra (x5) Foran - Sherry/dry/x2 Barrowman - ditchwater and champagne, neither shaken nor stirren Rest of the lads - two pints, bag of chips and taxi home Mind how ye go

  18. ?2.50! For a bloody ice cream! I'll take my own next time. Are you there, Donna's Ices?
  19. I have just wet myself. I tried to get to the toilet in time but couldnt.
  20. I would hope that Foran and Kerr stay, and think they might. Of the others, I would see Morais, Pavels and possibly Odiambo going, or at least being in demand. All three will be losses. Of the others, I cant see any going that I wold despair about.
  21. He is certainly more than capable of articulating his words into a form that footballers can understand and relate to. It's a gift not all managers possess unfortunately... hehehe on about Brew again eh. Very brave words from Yogi, and yes he seems to be one to whom stress comes naturally. I wonder how he copes now. He used to have a bar in Easter Road iirc. Best of luck to them in the cup.
  22. Not so. In the West, when one enters a purchasing situation one expects a) to have the prices displayed or be charged fairly. You are correct in that I never noticed that the prices were not on display, as they are in the chip van and snack bar, until I had the icy treat in my hand. Yes, I could have dropped it back into his grasping paw, but was so taken aback that I paid out. In my favour I would say that I expressed my discontent to everyone in the queue behind me. I am not sure that it is not illegal to operate in that way. Perhaps any legal eagles, or others in consumer protection can enlighten us. I know that bars must display prices.
  23. At TCS yesterday. Seems a bit daft him going all the way down South to play against us. Do you think he will be making a welcome return now that we are back at his level?
  24. But was it any good? It didn't help much, if that is what you are asking. But couldn't be arsked waiting in the tea queue with the BigMatchCharlies. The worst of it was that the prices weren't even displayed. An email to the management beckons.
  25. This was the topic of some conversation yesterday. When we were down against Hamilton a few weeks ago before the split, we were running the game with 10 men, and scored. Yet, yesterday, we waited until Falkirk pulled ahead, before we chose to mount a concerted attacking formation - 4 up front for the last 10 mins - and got more on target than we had in the rest of the game. Yes, the Bairns may have dropped back, but they still needed another goal t be safe. Attacking football is all about confidence, something that has been in short supply this season. Good strikers are expensive, hence there relative absence in the lower half of the SPL. Brewster's biggest error was the wholesale clearout of strikers in his early days, leaving us with Rory McAllister and Barrowload. Hopefully next season will allow Rooney, Wood, Imrie and especially Morais, if he's still here to play their own games and shine. Runaway leaders...
