Scarlet Pimple

It also takes nerves of steel.

Ronny Delia is reported as stating that ...." ICT are the best team we have played so far this season."

He's big, he's black, he's handsome, he......SCORESSSSSSSS!

Ach--I think it's time to give this thread the b.ms' rush. It's bringing out too many guys who have too much experience in the areas of dancing around whilst they are doing "Strip the Willow.' Bunch of whipper snappers.

7th March eh? Why, Scarlet, that's your birthday isn't it.? What do you think will happen you canny auld prognosticator? "Ahem, well, I think it will be a decisive victory for ICT on my birthday. That will also increase the number of birthday cards I get, so I have no hesitation in making my pitch heron in." My premonition , already stated on here a good few weeks ago, is that ICT is going to win the Scottish Cup. And the Ides of March are just the ticket for this one on the way there . It just has to be our year....

Well Yngwie, you are a really smart man.

Just on thought to keep in mind: "There but for the grace of God go I." or to put it another way..."Be careful what you wish for......"

Easy only if yuou are a young buck or buckess.

Absolutely DD. We must not make the mistake of being complacent. All out croim the start and build up a nice 3-0 lead by half time would be good entertainment eh?

Rangers who? How the mighty have fallen. A complete train wreck now I fear.

Just in case y'all missed Charlie's last comment, I have a sinking feeling that the four older and wiser members he separates from the herd are being reminded (possibly correctly) that they are eros-wholes. Mostly because aerosol cans are activated by the emission of gas into their middle chamber...... Admittedly we all four of us, with our deeper wisdom, do on occasion talk turkey above his head but that's really no excuse for such demented profanity. Keep up dear lad, listen and learn frae yer elders.

If that is in fact the case then Richie's injury must have been a bad one.. much more serious than anybody might be willing to admit. When it involves ligaments or such, which don't have their own blood supply but absorb nutrients by osmosis, then it's always going to be a race against time. And then depression sets in, followed by premature attempts to come back too quickly when you start to feel less pain. Unless Richie has had a really top class surgeon who worked on him then it's very possible that he will feel the effects of this injury for many many years. All we can do is wish him the very best of luck and hope his recovery now is swift.

A fan can get a bit browned off with n comments like that.

I have moved to the final where Celtic versus ICT is the order of the day. Large payday for us which is what we need to strengthen our financial structure and give John Hughes more room to mive re transfers etc. Whew! We finally beat Partick--I was beginning to think that every dog may have it's day but also a team might have a nemesis.

And Richie--- will he ever come back now ?

Harry Do you think that this would even be contemplated--not to try to get into Europe, I mean? I very much doubt it --I think I heard John Hughes mention the club's ambitions included getting in to Europe...so.....? Would the crowd at Tulloch be sufficient to justify the challenge. Are the gate receipts conjoined from the home and away games and then split down the middle?

Yes I It does look as if he had a tall.. column.. of reds to explain.

OMG, what HAVE I started.? Now you have highlighted my weakness--old age a-coming, I am quite ...cowed.

Wel , as an older geezer I have to support Bughtie with his outlook. You say we have no chance to win the League etc. etc.--why Billy was not the only player on this team --it's about a team , not an individual. Why can't you just say that we still have a chance. Same old same old, negativers again. There is no proof of any stupidity or any fault by anyone in Management so why not get behind them and SUPPORT them instead of lambasting them ..for what? For inactivity.. sometimes that is a smart move . You can bet on it that they are trying very hard to work out a policy or strategytyhat nwill be for the benefit of ICT in the long run//Remember the old joke A young bull and an old one are standing at the top of the hill and the youngster, fuelled by adrenaline and blistering testosterone, cries out in a fervent: OOOH. look at all these lovely cows down there Let's rush down and get one." Replies the old fella, still alive and kicking "Aye, laddie, thas a good idea but why not mosey on down the prairie and tat modest pace and conserve our energy; then we can get all of them?"

Contingency plan could be anything ..even extra training, for goodness sake. Please ease up on he Chairman. And if you can't or want more info then pose a question of management on this site or write to him direct.

Whoever crosses into the box, well then the other guy can latch onto it and ..." he shoots, he scoooooores."

Govan Jaggie --do you have evidence or proof of what you just said about our outstanding Chairman in post #133?

Well, Lightwelter he may think he is playing a non-superior league but if his head is big then he will need big wages to flatter him. Could be the wrong player if you are right. ?
