Scarlet Pimple

Well, a win in regular time is always better than penalties. But I did notice that the Aberdeen penalty takers had done their homework and noticed that Dean always threw himself to HIS right --did you notice the first three were all in the net to Dean's left. Aberdeen's manager has a reputation for being smart and this was shrewd pre-match training directions since he anticipated a shoot-out, Dunno that the better team won but they sure had more of the ball overall I think. Wasn't Robson the consummate professional? Rooney almost non-existent and ...NO! the tackle where he went down was never a penalty. Maybe not a desperate dive but a rolling fall that was not contra-indicated--as all good Doctors term these things. I will say that I was a tad disappointed with the penalties. Banging the ball over the bar by a mile is hardly professional and a complete waste of a lovely chance to score. Oh well, there is always next year and a fantastic overall performance by ICTwas heavily indicated.

Referee was really good. Calm and in charge.

DOH! IHE, I've been too long away from civilisation then?

I can't help but wonder if Charlie will be carrying a banner.man. That is if he can muster the energy after the doing that Oddquine has been giving him?

Who are you calling a granddad, IHE? I hope you mean ravaged 'cos it's a long whiley since ah, personally, wiz ravished. Aye. That too.

Cricketer as well, Manfer? All rounder , like?

I H E --you're not going all American on me are you? Million DOLLAR player?

Classic Canajin response....... EH?

And I always thought you favoured duckies, no less? Smile Now, don't duck the question.

And what a thrill if we also see his name on the score sheet. Will fair mak mah day , so it will.

I knew it wuz Donview the moment ah seed his post. Mr common sense and a sense of the common man....eh?

If we score more than Aberdeen then we win don't we?

That's not a bad price for a return ticket. Myself I think I would prefer the train. Talking about railways when is the Scottish train service going to be updated to Mag-Levs. Blinding speed of up to and over 400 Kph, Smooth as silk ride, car cannot ever come off the rail and non-polluting. Looks like quite a thrill.

Well, the team will not be going to either Russia or Crimea or North Korea so....... First let's win on Sunday.

Caley Jags Together You deserve all the plaudits coming your way for the huge effort you have put in on this venture to make it a great success. Many thanks from a poor old exile who will only be scarting around looking for some online video on the day.

The very best of luck Daniel. But---er...have you not left it just a wee bit late?

Apart from those on the terracing.....

Discretion being the better part of valour and all.....deffo.

As soon a s I saw it I just said to myself "that last post had to be Donview!" Absolutely! And a fight it may turn into at the end. However, please ICT, no more red cards ......

Renegade--that guy jumping out of the window reminds me more of the current Rangers bickering debacle than anything. I wonder who will blink first over at Ibrox with all the snarling and sniping going on in public? But, back at the ranch, what disturbs me as much as anything is the apparently crude tactics of some players who are getting far too many red cards. This is decimating the team and we will never win with only nine players in the long term IMHO. The kind of fouls that merit a red card seem to depict a complete loss of confidence in the players committing these offences. Either that or these players have a bit of a mean streak in them that is now coming out. With Aberdeen full of confidence and Messrs Rooney and Robson doing what were expected of them, very well I may say, we had better get a real grip of our pants because otherwise ICT will not win the League cup. And that is completely up to Mr Hughes..no ifs or buts about that. Comments?

Don't forget we need a camera and stand for the videos currently mooted for overseas fans....? Is that still on the table ?

Ha! Ha! Clever, like. !

Gingerjaggie and Govan Jaggie, what's the significance of Rutherglen to you both? Is it just a railway Junction? Before emigrating to Canada some 41 years ago I last worked at the RBS at 272 Stonelaw Road, Rutherglen and still maintain my bank account there. That brings back some memories I can tell you.

Fan-o-Footy--that takes the biscuit!

Sometimes paper losses are useful for tax reporting purposes---maybe?
