Scarlet Pimple

Mostly it's bafflegab-- a phrase coined in the dim and distant past to explain balderdash dsigned to confuse. Smile.

Renegade--I feel that you like controversy. Good on yer--you have every right to express your opinion, although to be fair it is more of a question than an opinion is it not? But don't apply to the Diplomatic Service since I hear they are fresh out of Application Forms written in sulphuric acid which you have requested--Agent Orange accessed their data banks and filched this gem from the Employee files. Oh by the way just to cheer you up, if ICT (oops "we") win on Saturday I will stop referring to ICT as ICT and will substitute the word "we" instead as you requested. However, this is conditional on the fact that prior to Saturday you will not post any more challenging, controversail nerve-jangling posts. Agreed? Now I assume that you don't mind if I use an emoticom now to truly evince my invincible feelings ? :024:

Did he not kick one off the line as well?? From the video highlights the guy seemed cool, confident and played some really fast football going forward--- put some nice balls into the box too. Very impressive stuff. Put Lionel on the left wing and tell him to run like fun.....can't lose. He is too big and fast to stop and he can cross a ball. The way Falkirk played last saturday , so lethargic and insipid, he could be our winner.

Rangers should crush him with the size of the fine..unbelievable . High time video was introduced into football. It is very successful in the very fast -paced North American National Hockey League and rarely used ironically. But it is there to adjudicate if necessary.

I've stopped biting my nails, I am just picking at the skin surrounding them now. Oh shoot I've just looked down and some are bleeding..... I could never go to this game __ I think my heart is in great condition but why tempt fate....eh? ;)

IHE--when I suggested that you splice the main brace what I meant was get back on the fo'castle of HMS Sneck and steer the good ship to calmer and safer waters. And there you go--what do I get...? And where did you park Sneckie fer heaven's sake--I need her to ferry me to the annual reefer party at the Hall in the Fort tonight. A lad who also thinks that when I say reef the main sale he runs off at the toot and gets into my reefers. Sigh--life can really get tejious .....eh? :(

Well I am really annoyed with Renegade. He let the cat out of the bag and that after swearing him to secrecy. I have long been of he opinion that Lionel should be transferred to the left wing out of harm's way and in that position he would cause consternation in the opposing defences with his strength and flair. And there Rennie goes telling you this salient fact as if it is his own idea. Jepers--that's what I get for coming on here late..... :(

You mean Roscoe enjoyed attempt to kill Cerny or you enjoyed the game? Betting is that it is the latter.....

Johnboy . That is what I figured--should have finished bbetter against ten men....... Sigh ..Still not out of the woods. Nail biting end to the eason then.

Jock Watt--how's the weather in Aussieland?

No body in the chatroom --must be all at the game.

6.25 a.m. herein Westyern Canada--early rise. Urg!

If it is not legally-binding then why is it referred-to as "a contract" ? Look up the definition of a contract --basically it is an offer requiring an acceptance.If it is not in writing then there must be valid witnesses to the agreement validated by some form of attestation( e.g. Notarised); but if in writing the signatories to it must be witnessed by certain specifically designated types--e.g. a Citizen of the realm-- it must be dated and requires the signatures of the offerer and the acceptor and contain the terms offered, or these terms changed to suit either party but with the specific changes initialled by both parties signifying acceptance. Maybe there is a "get-out" clause in this case allowing either party to be released from the Agreement at will but that would sem to be a rather pointless exercise so it would appear , at first sight, that both parties are legally bound by this typw of agreement . Need to read the Terms though.

EH????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Can't think of a thing to say against Mr Butcher. And if we can get through this season still intact as an SPL side I for one will consider the second half of this season as a resounding success, taking into account all that went before. Next seasson will be the test--for both T Butcher and the team. No doubt there may be the odd new face in the team but I dont think the money can be there to make wholesale changes., unless some usefuloney comes in from transferring existying players. So If we can again get through next season with a few outstanding performances along the way, a regenerated defence line and a forward line that gets better and better as the season advances then that will be a very satisfying year for ICT and me.

Eh em sorry but eh kent make it---Zoom Airlines did not pay their fuel bills and were grounded--permanently. Sigh! Life get's tejious don' it?

If Falkirk go down what are the bets on John Hughes going down with them. That would be a shame.John Hughes has put a power of work into this club since he went there, is always up front and directly honest and a person I have no doubt the players can trust. He deservs more than a thank you and a polite kick in the rear I think. If it were to happen I wonder where he would go.?..Falkirk's loss might be some other club's gain--he is a very passionate, knowledgeable football person .

A stalwart indeed.

Shades of Gretna.

The difference can be summed up in one word--character. The question is " does D Imrie have it ?'

What if he went to Methil and fell down the defunct Wellesley Pit on a sight-seeing tour and was never seen again? Nah! I think he should take the Liberian job--his life will be much more exciting--sand, sun and more sun , lots of colour --John would fit rightin since he is a flair man with lots of colour.. And forby if he went off on a vacation on a Liberian Tanker his adventures would never end--hi-jacking by pirates, ransoms, rotting somewhere as a prisoner of the pirates, being sprung by an American Marine raid in the wee small hours of a bright moonlit night, falling in love with his cell mate, an Arabian Princess thrown indelicately into the same cell whilst awaiting deliverance by the payment of ten million dollars by her Dad the Sheik of El Alamein -what a life eh? :thumb04:

Regrettably that will be a very expensive 2 years. And I agree with Caley D's comment above. If Mr Barrowman needs the ball to be played to him in a role as a poacher and the chances of his being successful in that role this season are remote what is the point of retaining him in the team? Sorry but we need a player up front in his position who is willing to work for the ball in stead of waiting for it to be played to his feet. And that means that he will have to get back to forage which is a pipedream.

OOOH! We are getting testy today aren't we? I agree with the lady though--- that ironing crack was uncalled for and NOT very gentlemanly. The problem with Lionel, spelt with an "e", is the same as the problem highlighted in the movie "The Sound of Music"....what can we do with a person like Maria? Every time he is criticised for making a boo-boo he saves a certain goal with timely tackles or a brilliant header past the left hand post (this one courtesy of the BBC highlights of the St Mirren match). So he is human?---well, does it not add to the spice of the game? If his overall summary position is therefore neutral where is the fault? And if there is a shred of truth in the accusation that Granty's game is suffering because of his heartfelt reponsibility to look after Lionel then why does he not simply look after his own bailiewick and get on with his actual duties and leave Lionel to sink or swim? Either way I think Lionel will still end up being Lionel---and if he does not stop this kind of play I will never be able to stop agreeing with Manfer..... GOTTA LOVE HIM !

I think the kids should be let in for the same price I had to pay when I was a very young fan---six pence.

Why don't you write and tell them exactly what you have written on here. Might be the turning point in their plans to move to a new stadium ----and spend money on that which otherwise they could have spent on new players....smile.
