  1. The board signed him.... yes and are still letting him hang on Hang on?!?! They are busy negotiating a new contract with the "fans favourite".
  2. When I was arranging shooting, I asked the difficult question, as to whether anyone at the club - players, board, staff, administrators - had Gaelic. I was told, as far as they knew, the answer was no. Perhaps this is an unbalanced state of affairs, but it has now been flagged up to the club, and they may decide to move, albeit gently in that direction. I thought Japanese was our second language :thumb04:
  3. Thanks Alex. YOu are not the first to say this. I will report it. G
  4. With the club's co-operation, I was allowed into the stadium to do some shooting for a short film "The Home Game". It has been entered into FilmG, a Gaelic film competition run by BBC Alba. It shows a day in the life of travelling ICT fans on the way to, and back from, the recent Hearts game. You can vote for the film, and check out some of the others. Vote for "The Home Game" here. Thanks to the Mackinnon family of Skye, and Mike and Darren at ICT for their help. A win for this film would be good publicity for the club and its involvement with BBCAlba, and I will buy you a pint in the Innes...
  5. I think you may be right. Much of our disgruntlement on here is the result of the sh1te played at home. We are not, yet, foot of the table, a situation which would only then cause the BOD to review the decision to continue CBs contract. While that state of affairs exists I seriuosly think the BOD will be satisfied.
  6. I'm not going to rustle my sweety papers any more, will that get us noticed? So you are the noisy b@stard, down the front! Some of us are trying to sleep, you know!
  7. Strange bit in the Courier which suggests that Rooney's arrival on the park was greeted by boos. True, but these were not for Rooney coming on, but for the extraction of Imrie whilst Barrowload stayed on. Is that everyone else's interpretation of the gesture?
  8. Special shout out for the Millenium Man. Last goal of the C20 and first of the C21. An extraordinary acheivement! Orra best Barry. I am sure you will make a success of whatever you do. You have been away once, and came back, so maybe again.
  9. Good on ya mate. Dont share your beliefs, but god on ya, none the less. I usually miss a few at the start and end of the season, due to summer things, but serioulsy wonder if I wuod not be better working in the garden or the shed and listening. It is quite a gamble at the start of the season...one which, this season for the first time, I feel sad to have made.
  10. Great goal, the way he kicks it just makes sure it turns a bit on the bounce, which deceives Boruc totally. Rankin also provides the second. What a loss he has been. Him and Robson, must be our two biggest former stars. And it is particulary enjoyable to see that clown Boruc getting one up, not least after his disgusting foul on Dargo. I am all for colour and character in players, but Boruc just seems so smug about it all. Nice to see that the Tic are beatable too. The ref just couldn't help them yesterday
  11. The Pimple makes a good observation, that negotiations arebeing opened to make Brew think about his options, strategy and career.IMHO he has been shown a heck of a lot of support by board, fans and team, and has fallen short of what he has the resources to deliver. If he is offered a contract at this stage, it will be a seriously bad decision. If he manages to keep us up at worst, or mid table or even, hope against hope get us top 6, well and good. But he has everything to prove. , If I did not have a season ticket, I can guarantee that I would have stopped going before now based on home form. If I am to renew, come June, I will want to have seen a good few winning perfomances... and quite frankly, I dont give hoot who the manager is.
  12. Good call. Lets just forget the footie and make Tulloch Stadium into akind of Ingliston of the North with markets and car boot sales and so on. Could be a great weekend's fun!
  13. Hastings is debatable. Some good supporting runs down the left but for me Duncan was average at best. Sorry! Agreed. Duncan can position hissel for a good tackle or interception and can be free for a pass, but cant himself pass water. A fatal flaw.
  14. Most of the palyers today were sh1te. YOu just knew that after a passable first half, it would be Levein that would have a clue as to how the second half should be played. Same old blah de blah. I could not understand the Imrie sub, if he made mistakes it was beacuse he was being stretched too thin. He was causing all sorts of probs in the first half. As above, the defensive positioning was beyond belief. As above, Barrowman has little to offer, even in the way of enthusiasm, whereas Rooney has more versatility and a good first touch as evinced in his well-taken goal. As above, I cant remember the last time that I thought Cowie was a knockout. Other than that, the usual complaints, but I though that Hastings did quite well. Home games sell season tickets, and the marketing deptshould be on Brewsters case. No way was there anywhere near the 3k gate today and it will be thus for the rest of the month.
  15. This is correct. Still capable of turning a game. If he wasn't here already we should be trying to buy him, from County, probably.
  16. Caught! Now that would be a solid defence.
  17. Was it not the Nairn Pipe Band? Think they disbanded after some political infighting over money, could be wrong though as is often the case. Think you are right there, 5th. A pipe band would be a great thing to reintroduce at half time, rather than some fat fool tring to kick a penalty. OI!! I'm doing it on sat!! Sorry about that, Joe. You are obviously not fat.
  18. OK I'll play. It is impossible to compare like for like of course, and we would have to say that any of the SPL squads would be able to hammer any of the previous ones, but where's the fun in that. So we just have to pick out our faves from the past and hope they all gel together. So I have put their best years against their names... Calder 2000) Tokely 2004, Mann 2003, Mann 1997, Golabek 2001 Cherry 1998, Black 2008, Sheerin 2001, Robson 2003 Wyness 2002, Dargo 2004 Subs - Wilson 2000, Brown 2004, Shearer 2003, Rankin 2006, Brewster 2006. Haven't bothered checking to dates, so sue me.

  20. Yeah, looking at the Beeb highlights. I would say that both Maloney and the other chap were offside. They are all interfering with play if that are in a postition to receive a pass, I would say. Cowie was also onside. Celtic getting the best of the decisions? Surely not? Nonetheless, cerditable performance, signifed by the fact that this thread is slow! A win on Sat would be the canine testicle though.
  21. I have never understood this rule. "If he wasn't interfering with play then wtf was he doing on the park." as the wise old man once said.
  22. The offside wasn't on the B'man, it was on the ICT player to his left who was carelessly a yard or two in front. Fair decision. Unfortunately.
