SPL ponders expansion plans ....
Sweden play 30 games in a 16 team league, I'm sure fans would be willing and able to shell out more per game if there are less games to pay for and Scotty's idea about a revamp of the cups could make them more interesting (qualifying leagues tables? More teams in the mix?). I''m sure it can be done. I'm sure fans wouldn't be willing to pay more money for less games!! Not a chance of it actually. The prices here are way over the top as it is, we used to charge ?25 for main stand in the spl, there is no way fans would be willing to pay more and get less games!

SPL ponders expansion plans ....
There should be a playoff now between 2nd bottom in the spl and 2nd top in the 1st. If a team runs away with the 1st division or is rooted to the bottom of the spl, like Gretna and Livi have been in recent years it kills all excitement at the bottom of the spl/top of 1st. Even when ICT were in the spl I thought there should be playoffs because if you finish 2nd bottom of the league a playoff is the least you deserve

Merged: I BELIEVE.
We HAVE to beat Dundee, don't think a draw will be good enough. But if we beat Dundee then QOS midweek and Morton the following sat we will be sitting at the top of the league! Easy!!

Ayr game on/off thread
well if the referee gets both managers to agree(over the phone i guess) then it would be postponed. otherwise if teh ref gives the game the go-ahead and Ayr dont make in time then ICT would be awarded a 3-0 win and Ayr would be hammered by the SFL for not making the k/o. What guff, if they are stuck in snow, cant get up the road then it would be replayed. Teams have been stuck in traffic quite a few times before leading to games kicking off late or being postponed and replayed. Do some people just make things up here as they go along?

Ayr game on/off thread
Its been snowing most of the day and the roads are awful, I'm expecting this game to be called off. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/8536970.stm A9 closed, snow gates shut overnight tonight, trains disrupted...no chance of game going ahead.

QOS- GAME OFF
Because 3 more inches can be cleared from the pitch but that extra inch makes all the difference! Do you just make these things up? There was a lot more snow when we played Dundee on boxing day, it is more to do with the surrounding conditions if the game is off or not as the temperature is forcast to rsie. There is no set depth of snow that calls a game off. Yeh there is. try the Drumochter for that! Not on the pitch, its the surrounding and road conditions that will get this game called off. The pitch shouldnt be frozen and the snow can easily be cleared

Next Season's Shirt
I seem to be in the minority that likes it that we change the design of our strip every couple of years, it's good to have a something different now and then instead of having the same basic design every year. I also prefer the plain, non stripe, strips that we have had.

Where is the money?
All this is coming from people 'beleiving' this or that or they have heard this or that. I really cant see a club like ICT no having relegation clauses in their players contracts, you would expect it to be a given. Also I was told what Barrowman was on in the SPL and what he was on in the first division so it would seem his wage was reduced and he wasn't a player signed in the last half of the season. I know this is also something I was told and not hard fact but it was one of the players who said this so I wouldnt expect it to be rumour. But again everyone has this information from word of mouth or a 'belief' that there was no clauses and no one knows for fact so I don't think we can really asume they are all on the same wage as last season and it is almost 'beyond belief' that a club like ICT wouldnt have relegation clauses.
-
Where is the money?
Just becasue someone replied saying that doesn't make it true. There is no way the players are all on the same pay as they were in the SPL. There would have been relegatin clauses in the contracts and I'm sure almost every player has suffered a wage reduction.

I blame Craig Brewster myself.

QOS- GAME OFF
Was actually pretty sunny here today although a bit cold. No snow at all anymore. Would say there is no chance at all of the game being off.

Next Season's Shirt
We are going to get a generic kit like that one. They have other ones on their website in different colours, one with a really dark blue and red. That red would look better than the more maroon colour of that one.

Re-arranged games?
http://www.scottishfootballleague.com/res/...%2017-02-10.htm Show the full list of rescheduled games for all divisions. By the time we play Dundee on the 6th we will have played the same amount of games and if we can win all 3 games then we will be a minimum of 4 points behind them!

Team for Queens
You do remember he was put on at left mid before and it was awful!! He was all over the place, couldn't play a pass, was putting the ball straight out of play. Never again please!
-
The Final Run In
:D Eh!?? Your not sure our players want to beat County at all?? What are you talking about? Also ht QOS are 1-0 up against 10 men so at the moment they would go 1 point against us with a game in hand still so the game on sat is just as big for them and they really need the win as well to keep their challenge going. If we are going to win the league we have to win on sat and will be a real test of our challenge for the title.

Shinnie going on loan
I dont think this is the time to be giving inexperienced youngsters a game. Would do him better going out on loan until the end of the season and gaining some first team experience.
