Scarlet Pimple

I picked up also on the comment, above, that "Their lawyer must have supported them"..i.e. suggested that the club proceed as the club saw fit? But if he, the solicitor, knew full well from the video evidence that the player broke the rules of the SFA isn't that tantamount to breaking the law with which he would be so familiar? Also, it means , surely, that lawyers are not overly scrupulous about going about their business nor the clients they represent and that business and money trumps the processes of law which they are supposed to provide as a matter of course in the community? Do you think I am being too harsh or do you detect lowering standards of integrity and conduct all over the world ? But if the offending player is going to get away with it, it might reasonably be felt that he will continue. So, therefore, other clubs can police him and at the first hint of badness they descend on him and kick him to a quivering pulp--after all, fair's fair since now we appear to know that blatant fouling can be overlooked without penalty? Just a thought or two. ....

Ruthven Barracks was serviced by a Thomas Telford road because of it's importance to the English invaders. Then TT decided his commission included opening up the Highlands to continue the pacification of the Highlands after Culloden. Am I right?

Oh boy! You really left yourself open to censure with that parting shot.

Billy coming back? Strange you should think that Buckett, I was thinking the same thing ?

The cottage on the left was conjoined on the right with another, Both probably had tin roofs. Much farther to the right, after a nice walk, one came to "The Roundel"., a clearing amongst the trees where we often went for a picnic. At the bottom of the Hill, on the right side of the picture, there was a farm . The name Paterson springs to mind but I can't say that was the name of the farmer. Good input friends. Brings back more memories of gentler and slower times when simple things were a joy . .

Hmmmm! Seems to be a smart guy. Diplomatic too. And has very good English fur a furriner,.... like a Canajin,,,eh? Good luck to him and our club..hope they both end up very successful and suitable for each other. We both need that .

Post 104 by IHE... Hardly suitable for a budding Pimple old chap. The doors would have had to be altered to a much more rounded shape to allow me entry since as a young lad I ate like a horse. Ord Hill.......Ibelieve you are spot on my good man. Now if you can tell me the name of the cottage on the top left of that line of small cottages I will be forever in your debt.

Wasn't it Capt Friesen or Fressen who flew float planes in and out of Inverness. a long time ago?

Is that IHE about to start off on his holidays from Craig Dunain?

He'll be on the bench, doubtless.

And if these guys don't prove up to the task we can always assess them as being a somewhat backward forward line :- Pinky Raif'o Yelram, ably coached by Pinky Nuggett

IHE if post and picture no. 99 is North Kessock then the house on the top of the hill which is the one on the extreme left is where I was sometimes taken by my next door neighbor with my sister for a couple of weeks; holiday. I have been trying to remember the name of that hill or the name of the extreme left cottage on the line of cottages.built on it. ........ Anyone?

So long as J H makes sure the lads are in bed early then night before the match then they will have the energy left in the tank to hoist the cup high above their heads. This is an event I am really looking forward to. Even if I have ended the sentence with a preposition, that is my predilection and my prediction.

"In debt" simply means they owe the bank any sum of money. Nothing else. Usually this means the outstanding balance of the loan or loans including accrued interest. If they can't pay the interest, then the bank could foreclose on their security and/or demand repayment of both the Principal sum lent by them plus the accrued interest..... then the borrower is both in debt and in deep trouble. If the terms of the loan repayment are structured by way of a monthly repayment of principal, blended together with the payment of the accrued interest since the last payment of interest was made, then this is usually related to a long term repayment plan. UNLESS the bank has allowed the borrower to pay only the monthly accrued interest without the obligation to repay any part of the principal amount borrowed along with the monthly interest payment. -- in which case they have made sure that the security that they have taken over the borrower's assets is valuable enough to pay out the remaining principal amount of the debt in the event of default of the borrower to repay as agreed . However, the option may be offered to a reputable and valued client to re-finance the debt with another loan on more favourable terms. i.e. to pay-out and replace the first loan with a new one on terms more suited to, or agreeable to, both parties. Otherwise it's likely that the bank will foreclose and sell the assets to allow for them to get their loan repaid. That could mean selling the structures of the park, or the ground on which these structures stand, or both. Assuming, of course, that these assets have been legally assigned to the lender by way of security to cover the possibility of default by the borrower. OR--the bank may call in the loan and, failing repayment in full, they could choose to activate their right to liquidate their security after due notice to the customer of their intentions.(e.g. sell property, a high-end car, bonds or bank balances elsewhere all pledged as security.) Also, the people who have signed Guarantees to the bank against the default of the borrower to fulfill his/their obligation to repay the bank on the terms stated in the loan security documents, may have to pay up. The bank is likely to call in the Guarantors to pay up first, followed by the liquidation of the secured assets of the company to repay the shortfall of what is left owing to the lenders. It's a nasty business. AKA Rangers.

And the steel wool in his linings to scratch his face to activate blood streaming so he can then con the ref again...and again.

Is that your Braand-o, Maarlon?

Yes, sounds like Mr O'Fere made his O'ferring really count. --a GOAL? What more could you ask of a Newbie on his Dewbie (oops! sorry.... debut)? Welcome to the club. The teams that we assumed would either win, or at least not lose, today did the opposite. What a let0off for us However, the outcomes suited ICT to the tee. We really didn't lose ground that much did we? But, from now on, we have to find the way back to the rhythm of before otherwise the lack of it will condemn us to merely the blues. Summer football would allow us to flourish, not flounder. Long overdue. Let's start a "save the pitches " theme. Crowds would rise too.

Until the gen is proven we have to assume that you are the all-brahan Seer IHE was the assistant to the Brahan Seer in days gone by --he would, like Daddy, always know best.

Any videos to post on this site? He is a right footer so I would have imagined he would either be playing on the right wing or at inside right?

Yep !these were the stairs that led upstairs to the Hoi Polloi seats--uch as those with Pimples tattooed on them.

Ciftci is definitely a bad egg and his behavior is decidedly Shifty. I remember some bizarre incident on the touchline with Terry Butcher and him....? The suggestion of "fair play '' will rarely if ever enter his mind. He will not change until someone gives him a real "doing" but for that act the miscreant would suffer a punitive reaction from the beaks and so it will never happen, unless it's done swiftly and silently in a heated match whilst the play is at the other end. Now, if someone were to carry an electronic shock device like the police do .....?. You know, hide a Taser up yer breeks and bump into him accidentally which contact releases an automatic charge to activate the taser, This followed by rolling around on the ground in agony as a neat diversion... I dunno--what else could one do when the authorities will never suspend him "sine die" like Willie Woodburn of the Rangers in days gone by.....

At least they don't appear to still trundle down the High Street--walkies only there isn't it nowadays?

Ask a simple question......?

Monsieur Bannerperson........ Sniff. Jealousy will get you everywhere.....and every time. Good try, though! Keep 'em comin, buddy.
