Scarlet Pimple

CuteCaley Chick--how about a wee interesting reply to that one then? Ha! :001:

Flattering article, made you feel really good didn't it/ About time we had some fairer press and more insightful and objective appraisal of the progress and goings-on at the Caley Thistle Park. Well, I've now got the fixtures list pinned up to the bookcase in my wee office so we are set for the off very soon guys. :clapping04:

Why are we so pally with Sheffield United all of a sudden? Or has this been the case for several years. Does Sheffield think that our performance in the SPL deserves the nomenclature of "Gay Blades" I wonder? Or do they simply play with such gay abandon that they feel that only ICT of the SPL measures up to their style? Sigh..it's so hard to write stuff when everybody else ins in their bed. :016: Oh Well...." I say, Gaylord, will you bring me another toddy please, that's a good fellow". Sigh..I think I'll keep him on at the Hall, he does a good turn I have to say that and he can liosten very well without giving old Scarlet a lot of cheek which helps I guess in this day and age... :003:

And RIG--I see you are online the noo--What are you doing up at this time of the morgen? ..Eh? :003:

They had better be well into a good training vogue otherwise their wee legas are going to be realllllly sore.. :011: :notworthy01:

Gretna may win the Division next season but it won't be a cakewalk I think. Some of their players are now reaching the veteran satge are they not-in which case they will have to splurge to bring in fresh blood? Mr Milesom is enjoying his success at Gretna so much that investing more cash for him is a no brainer.And he is an enthusiastic genuine punter so good luck to him. Watch Gretna, they are a real dark horse coming up the straight fast .... :006:

Dods is the backbone of the team and should be held onto at any cost. At least until the current team matures a bit. Black and Proctor are young and if ICT can get the money for them that they appear to be asking , can be allowed to leave . These two are not currently leadership material whereas Dods appears to be all that and more. :012:

I take the same view as Kencar--a bird in the hand is worth two in the bushes :015: :015:

Blackie--the weight would probably bury him. Bit young too isn't he for such a responsibility? :006:

Alex--nothing much at all--frankly I can't remember. Just a josh, maybe I felt you were posting a bit too seriously and mentioning your age probably triggered my ...er..."ironic" side. :003:

Let's face it , the guy who cracks negative needs a head review. My first reaction was ''"bah, humbug, ban the post". then I thought, no, just let it run it will draw out the posiutivity in all us fans who appreciate the fantastic efforts of the players ythis season just finished. But I do agree with IHE --we should have won the Champions League and thisa slip up cannot go un-noticed! :016:

County will be lucky to finish next season......let alone place.. :011:

Yup--big splurge on the BBC website about the Italian fiasco. Does not look good based on current statements and evidence. A real disgrace all round. :020:

Hey Alex Welcome to the old boys' club anytime. But the rules for entry have changed--Scarlet has dossiers on all hopeful entrants and a slight honorarium slid in a nespaper to him at the door has gone from non-obligatory to mandatory due to the dearth of good spy jobcommissions since the demise of the cold war. With the war against Iran just over the horizon prospects in my business have looked up but I still needa touch or two- you Do understand. Otherwise...out come the dossiers ....hmmmmmmmm :004:

You got the stats --I completely ageree with you. In fact if the home form hade matched the away form where would ICT be today? Och well we can dream...eh? Its sunny but cold in Vancouver just now --got me a beezer of a sore throat and cold.. Off tae bed- now I am tired of the trollinga round on the site--good fun though. :003:

I join you in not fully understanding this system. More to the point I don't really understand the point of it--of course it probably is designed to make more excitement and money for the top six but tell me somrthing new, eh? But that 58 points opposit ICT look good on the tyable don't they. ? In fact when I heard that Baloney remark on Jim Taylor's show on the ;ast day of the season when he said --"Och Caley are where they are because after the split they are playing the rubbish of the division". Really Jim? Just whupped the Hibees three of four times, Hearts at least once, came awfy close with the "Gers and the Celtic etc etc. C'mon give me a break pal --there is at least a reasonable chance that they would have still garnered more points than the others in the top six had they been allowed to play them---someone tell me I am wrong.... :010:

Absolutely,Caledonian Delight.. :003:

I rep[eat Benchy--I don't think that you have your troubles to seek at D>U> When Brewster the player left some thought ICT woould go down hill a bit--never happened. Five out of five wins at the end. Our team hadss something that perhaps your team has not--honesty of purpose. Good luck with Brew in his third or fourth season --if he survives that long , that is. :017:

Not to worry--found the scroll bar along the bottom, hidden amongst some attic stuff. Sigh! We live and learn even if it makes one (or two) feel foolish for .01 of a second..Hoch! Hoch! Still around then Buckett? Good, can't afford to lose a soul on this forum.I'm writing a book on "characters". Thinks... I once had an employee 26 years ago who laconically mused to me in my office that she was telling a friend about her boss, me., and she said "Oh, I told her you were....blah, blah, blah......and "a bit of a character....." Indignantly I informed her that "I can't sta :evil: nd being called "a bit of" anything....... :evil: :P :P

Message text is going off my right hand side hiding a few words at the end of each line and the "reply " box also. Can anyone suggest a remedy-thanks? S.P. :(

Sounds like a job for the Scariest Pimple-- Reduced "end of season" commission rates to ICT fans. Clandestine contacts only , please, through any administrator. All enquiries welcome---especially in the off-season when business eases off. Scarlet P. 8)

Which is another good reason for doing-away with the split--maintaining a professional "we must win" attitude until the end of the season. Teams in the relegation zone deserve nothing less.

Against the split. Leaves end games meaningless and not much to play for. What we need is more teams --16 sounds good. It's boring playing the same teams over and over.Keep the excitement going to the bitter end .

Dods only worth 50,000L?Hmmmmmm...stalwart in defence all season. Scores with his head--NAA ---at least 75,000. If Blackie goes to Russia he will get clogged all over the place--mind you he just fit in as a bit of a good clogger himself? Mee--be nice now, don't let this nice bright new forum go to yer head my dear. IHE --your'e the man. Hoch! Hoch! :D

So this is where you reply Hoch Hoch--I feel comfortable already after nearly having a melt-down trying to find my way around. As I said before this may be a blessing in disguise since are ICT Really ready for the reallly big games/the big time. Disappointing for many , me included, of course--a bit deflated I have to admit but this may give them a chance to regroup. To be perfectly honest my main fear is that the remaining games in the season will turn out to be like last year with non-sterling performances from Caley Thistle. But from all accounts they are still working as hard as ever and lady luck has to show her face eventually so hopefully they won't slip down the league and will emerge with their pride intact. And there is always another day
