Scarlet Pimple

Rumour has it that this lad intended to swop a pipe band to California with a High School Girl's Cheerleadingoutfit to Tulloch from there. I saw the cheerleading U.S. finals on T.V. and was completely gobsmacked. In addition to some lovely young lasses in fetching outfits their performance was one of breathtakingly fast and furious acrobatics beautifully synchronised throughout. Now THAT'a show that would draw in the crowds at tulloch for sure. But we don't need this guy to arrange it - Mr Savage can call me anytime. :016: As for Ms Orr, well, Connie there is fine group of firemen on a Calendar here --maybe if ya grease ma haun wi siller I can do something to lighten life's little burden for you. Hmmmmmm.....? :015: The problem with a geezer like this is not the sex which is universally accepted as a perfectly normal activity but the links to criminal elements who have a finger in the pie at all times. :012:

Relatively tactless comment, whatever. There is many a slip twixt cup and lip. :024: Ve shall see vat ve shall see...... :018:

Tyler Watt came to a sticky end too......anybody remember him or the circumstances that led to it? Does Gunpowder have anything to do with it ..? :002:

JB-- There is nothing at all untoward about that post if that is what you are implying? If you can't appreciate some subtlety let me try to explain: If she likes you, FW likes to call you Petal ; which is organically very nice. :004: Petals, blossoms and items such as your somewhat inappropriate avatar/logo are genetically linked except that the former two are static and don't cause problems whilst the latter item walks with a non-organically-correct limp and if absorbed in sufficient quantities can lead to genetically-challenged fuzzy brain cells which think only in curved straight linear concepts...... Or try Wikipedia for more information...... :cute01:

Commanding presence on the field. Outstanding footballing personality on the park. Good luck, whatever, Craig Brewster. :022:

Watts wrong with him? Not pacy enough for Brew? WATTS didn't get much of a chance to show us that he is a POWERhouse with ELECTRIC pace then? :014: Probably also didn't fit in with ICT's NUCLEAR family ? Eh..? Not even good enough for the SUB station ? :001:

Things sure happen fast in this league. Poor Robbo - I wonder where he is, or will end up? Surprised that John Hughes, what with his passionate nature, experience, Scottish Nationality and green connections was not right up front in the frame. Despite his ingrained accent he definitely has something exceptional to offer a club. Maybe he is too honest and blunt for Rod the Bod.... :029: I like him. I told a Real estate Agent yesterday whom I had just encountered who wanted to get the listing for the sale of my business "You are blunt, aggressive, self-opinionated and domineering---I like you ! I'll think about it and I will look at your web site listings.... " Moving right along, eh IHE? :003:

Isn't it always the case that a player must be in his "best" position to allow for his talent to blossom? And if he is blossoming then C. Brewster must take a lot of credit for that-- Footballer's Wife--fair is fair, isn't it petal ? He was untried in SPL football when we paid a speculative 65 thousand punds for him. Surely he is worth close to double that now in view of his progress, greater confidence and so on. It's a no-brainer. :011: Besides we do appear to have several replacements at hand--some of whom deserve the chance. In the current circumstances ICT should sell him if he is unhappy and if they can get anything like his real value. Out with the old , in with the new .....like. :003:

Maybe he is looking for a testimonial/benefit match before he plunges in full time into the deep dark pool of management with all its pitfalls. :029:

:clapping03:

Aggressive stance by the Management ---compliments all round, must encourage the kids. :022:

RANKIN-40,000 LBS---RIDICULOUS. He will really have to lose some weight. The Squirrel--some good banter at first but eventually very tiresome. Always whining about something. Sometimes you felt if he ever tried to crack a joke it would turn into a yoke and be all yellow and runny like his drivel. Eh IHE? :004: IHE had him on toast most of the time and he turned out to be right about him. Got real huffy when not all the punters on here agreed with him; but the Squirrell did lead us all a merry dance for quite a long time. Excellent piece of detective work , however, --all the resources at the Hall were ultimately involved in unmasking this dastardly furry-tailed mosquito. IHE is still paying off our fee for clandestine information supplied. Much of it was free gratis since we did not want him to have a stroke before he got to his 29th birthday--succeeded in that. :015: Sophia--I told you she is very good at getting out of a tricky situation. I salute you , no sophistry about you, nahhhhhh .. :crazy07:

As a young teenager I could hear the baying across the Howden's Nursery when a goal was scored and I knew instinctively when Caley had scored because there was always a mighty shout that seemed to reverberate like a firework going off across the rose bushes. About this time I would listen agog to the Internationals with England and Austria at Hampden on the radio and I started to get the feeling that this patriot stuff was quite a thrill. Then the Caley stand was burnt down and that peaked my interest. Shortly after I started going to Telford Street Park with my next door neigbour and once I ended up in the stand with him and thought that was the absolute bees knees which further instilled in me the growing feeling that being around Caley was great. Moved on to England and once visited Wolverhamptom Wanderers when I was in the RAF nearby--not a memmorable game but the atmosphere felt good to me. Although I subsequently stayed in London for a year I don't think I ever went to a game. This was followed by another move to Leven and Methil for work and I started to follow East Fife where I saw some real rollicking games and all this did my interest in football no harm at all. A promotioon to Edinburgh and I moved in to a house on East Restalrig Terrace in Leith which was just down the road from Easter Road and the Hibs. This was a different class of footie and I followed Hibs religiously for 6 enjoyable years. I remember they slaughtered Kaiserslautern 4 -O one evening and Turnbull (I think ) hit an absolute 40 yard humdinger that had the goalie absolutely rooted to the spot. What a shot and a goal! I will never forget that one. Subsequently another move to Blantyre in Lanarkshire enabled me to go and see a Rangers versus Celtic match at Ibrox which was poor and that did nothing to cement any possible affinity to any of the Old Firm teams. My mnove to Canada came shortly afterwards and the only game in town around that time and for the next few years was the Vancouver Whitecaps who were sweepinmg all before them in the North American Lweeague . But inevitably they went downhiull and the new Whitecaps neither had the location, the money nor the players to make it worth my while travelling half way across the city to Swangard Staium in Burnaby to watch them regularly. About 4 years ago I stumbled across this site since I always had that lingering "I wonder what Caley are doing now" feeling and I found them here on the net. An article that mantis had written took my eye and I contacted him for more information about what was going on in Inverness.Then he told me about the merger and so on and I was stunned. The rest is history ....so you have him entirely to blame for the Scarlet Pimple being foisted on you all. But thanks, Mantis, you have increased the enjoyment of my life no end my friend. :002: :sillywave: Cheers from canada.

Apparently turned down 35,000 pounds A WEEK? Incredible! :019:

Och, IHE , now I have got the :009: humph!

Talking about "skinning backs" down the wing and "pace" I remember the day when fans on here were lambasting Niculae for the lack of both attributes which at the time surprised me since I had just finished looking at a clip of him doing both on the left wing and getting a very neat cross in from the byeline immediately afterwards. And there was nothing too slow about him then. :024:

Well C,mannnnnnnnn! Which one do you think is most important?....eh? :001:

Rig your post about the eventual score-line was very prohetic wasn't it? Prescient even...Hmmmmmm! IHE-ish even ! Ha! Did you RIG the game and make a pile on the result . Hoch Hoch! :sillywave:? :003:

All comments on here about the commentary today are my feelings exactly. "Commentator's refrain..."Oh it's so boring on here just now, the game has gone flat... oh my, I 'll just tell you then that Birmingham is going to lose and Alex McLeish will be unhappy, Blackburn blah blah , and Wigan is beating so and so---oh and the stunning news just in on my ticker Huddersfield are doing a number o9n a bigger fish etc" Man oh man it was really bad today. I have complained to the BBC before about this bgut oit seems that no one seems to get it. And to think it had to happen at the only game (I think) which was broadcast today overseas. I think Mike Smith must have relented and ordered the game to be broadcast since we overseasers are sooooo enthusiastic about getting our Saturday gemme! :clapping03: As for Marcus' hairdo, maybe he is playing King Henry the 5th at Eden Court in the upcoming Production of ....Henry 5,..... for light relief from the hectic training.. :002:

Praise indeed! :023:

Eh? .....You're welcome. :015:

:cdn: IF Caley D ever gets round to sending the Scarlet one a Happy New Year email on the undsersea transatlantic cable I will be sure to return the favour by sending him a moose head for his bike handlebars.He's soooooooo cool. :017: But so is the underwater cable , so heat it up CD... :015: Happy New Year to all for one and one for all from the venerable Scarlet Pimpernel's son and heir Scarlet Pimple. Daddy sends his love too and especially to Sophia who has shown commendable fortitude in dealing with all the rough and rude remarks directed her way by the ICT proletariat , and with great forbearance and , frankly, a gritty load of spirited comebacks--shall I send her some sherry too, Manny? Slainthe. :finger08:

So is the consensus then that Marius is now over the hump, is showing us what his talent can achieve at Tulloch and can look forward to future visits at home games from Representatives from the Old Firm dressed unostentatiously in drab raincoats? :002:

Do you think that the brightness of his star never quite went over the top and then Cowie's has seemed to actually do it a wee bit, and more consistently, since then? :023:

Was that about the time that "gay" turned from meaning joyous to....."boyous" :004:
