  1. Lizi is areal thinker, I think.
  2. Phew! This was clearly going to be a long read after I finished reading the first 3-5pages. All I feel is that if Boris does not get a clean and decent haircut(never mind a hairstyle) let's at least hope that his brains work well in the extra warmth. I think he has more brains and savvy than Trump, though what with latter person being roundly criticized as being something between "deranged" and "insane". Although, in the U>K, I also think Winston Churchill is already turning over in his grave regardless of the ultimate outcome of all the posturing and pontificating. However, you just never know. Boris may have more brains and energy than one might assume from his appearance....or do you think he is about to lead you into a deeper abyss? Right now his latest actions suggests a deepening pit of despair amongst the proletariat and higher taxes to cover all the extra expenses that may be involved in his plans. So "Oh what a tangled web we weave others to deceive" just springs to mind. All the best in all your changes and endeavours. Me? My heart is in my mouth for your future so the best of British Luck. We have our own "heart in mouth" scenario though with our Canadian General Election arriving in October. It's jolly Justin Trudeau versus the rest. But none of them impress so our decisions will also be agonising,. Cheers, S.P.
  3. The last suggestion will certainly prove to be stimulating I,m sure. The guys in charge are very well informed. Their brief comments about their "away days" were really amusing, informative and revealing. Ha! The news about Fort William is really interesting as well. All in all. this podcast thing is moving right along and even if I live 5000 miles away I think it has a terrific future, Thanks guys, ...............S. P.
  4. Not possible Danylo. I am not a member of Facebook. Nor do I have a cell(mobile) phone because "old codgers" don't need one -- we older folks just watch the younger folks wasting their time on phone call after phone call whilst we older and wiser guys just watch the girls go by. My wife has had a few mobiles but they have conked out, one by one. Maybe these poor folks need to spend big on a Huwawie one. I'm a canny Scotsman so I view all this as a needless waste. Now I will leave the final word to IHE...
  5. This negative criticism stuff is a bit too hearty for my comfort. Hope as we go along we can emphasis the positive rather than dwelling on what some folk think is/are the flaws. Encouragement sometimes is much more beneficial than the opposite since a player's confidence sometimes needs back-up and encouragement to set him/her on fire. And emphasises the team spirit rather than to isolate and condemn the odd man out so to speak. 'Just thinking....!
  6. IHE are you a wee bit tipsy? The Oxford English dictionary will help you methinks. Smile
  7. Perhaps McEwen Fraser are paying for it.....? In which case...….just turn a blind eye, methinks? Smile
  8. At least Alan 's heart is in the right place .
  9. Fair enough, IHE! I'm all for suspending judgement. But good judgement is the best route because these players are costing the club probably a fair dad of money. Just saying...?And how can we determine how much Robbo has in his coffers for spending and hiring?
  10. Appears to be a done deal so let's wish him all the best. Talks well in the interview. Perhaps all he needs is respect and encouragement? Worth a punt for this season at least? Not sure, however how old he is...…. possibly a factor as related to performance as well. Still, if the contract is a one year renewable at discretion of the club, then why not? The fans need some skill to cheer about. Time for criticism, one way or the other, after he gets down and dirty over the next three or four months methinks
  11. Yes, some unknown names in there IHE . Where did Collinson come from and for what reason....? Solid defender and skilful perhaps ? Not questioning Robbo's skill but never heard of this player before. Thanks!
  12. If Miles Storey has been so good then why did his last team let him go when approached by Robbo? If he has lost the pace, or the place, then he will last only one season perhaps? In which case he is merely a "plug-in" rather than a future prospect so to speak? And if so, Robbo, then why bother? We're surely faced with building a strong winning team for the future at the moment rather than for the sake of seeking a pressure-filled romp each season ?
  13. This early defeat will either depress Robbo in the short term or goad him into definitive reaction. If D. United can start with such enterprise and sweeping dynamism in the first game then it does appear that Robbo may have a real uphill struggle on his hands. So how quickly will he react with verve and a REAL plan to address the negative issues that the team has encountered so far? And the big question is .."does he have the class of player and resources to provide the answer?"
  14. Nice one Cyril . After all, a change is as good as a rest isn't it?
  15. IHE--Storey back, Tansey back in a deal taking White to St Midden. Buying Todorov now makes sense. I agree....these guys were /are gooood.
  16. Maybe "Aye", maybe "Och Aye".....? He might be able to contribute a fair amount of good football but how good is he now that he wants to leave the "bigger" team? And does ICT have the money to get him ...remember the old saying.."if you can't pay , don't go!"
  17. If he is I feel he should be welcome since he did contribute when at our club. But....? Can we afford to buy him back etc?
  18. Och! There! he goes again, making fun of a poor old Pimple. Grrrrrr! If only I was ten years younger and all. However don't be bothered by IHE..he has a good heart and loves ICT to death so...…we have to make allowances for his, probabl, mis-spent youth. If you ever do want to come to Canada and the purse strings can stretch to allowing for the airfare out to the West coast, then it's extremely likely that my wife and I could meet you. Would that not be "something"? But, to see a Moose you will have to travel way up North for that and can't fail to send a photo to IHE as well of you and the Moose cuddling. Aye, Right!!
  19. Oh well! Valuable experience for the LADS. Has to be a positive experience for them and useful for the Caley team. Onward and upward then.
  20. OOPs! Danylo, I thought that you said Ukrainian glass. ?My mistake. Between the change of your Prime Minister and all , you have lots to think about and chat over a glass of whisky! Spare a thought for our newly-minted team for 2019-2020. I am thinking that there are going to be some surprising results this year but Robbo is still here and on the ball. Interested in coming over to Vancouver in Canada ….? Scarlet
  21. OCH! Youse yins really know how to bring a tear to a wistful emigree's eye.. Looks lovely though. Great job, sigh. Thank you! You really are true gentlemen on this site.
  22. Does anyone have a photo of the newly laid turf?
