Craig Samson gets Scotland call up
Be as well calling up Moshni if you're looking for someone who can punch effectively.

Not only that but the Moshni thing was the headline news on Reporting Scotland

What did the message say
Brilliant effort from all involved. Looked great I thought and knocked spots off of the Falkirk display. Still disappointed it wasn't a massive image of Andy Shinnie though.

Cup Final ticket sales
I'm not sure how easy it would be but I hope the club sends out letters to everyone who bought a Cup ticket detailing season ticket prices to try and encourage folk to come along next season.

Caley Thistle Score New Victorian Market Shop
That's a shame but it sounds like a complete over reaction by the customer to be honest.

Pub for SC Final
Sorry I was being a welt and sending you to some cheap, but pretty run down, pubs and I can't do it! Unless you want to hang out with Rangers fans with the club crest tatooed on their head Seriously, if you are happy enough with a Wetherspoons type place go to the Counting House right in the centre by George Square. There is also Camperdown Place (another Spoons pub) right by Q/S. There's another Spoons place by Central as well. You know what you are getting with these pubs. Another place we sometimes go to after an away game is Stereo on Renfield Lane which is near Glasgow Central. Nice but small and can get quite busy. Food is meant to be quite nice. I've heard other people talk about the Yes Bar and also Nice and Sleazys but I've no idea what they are like or where they are.

The Toby Jug right next to Central or Dows if you are closer to Queen Street.

Caley Thistle Score New Victorian Market Shop
Hopefully the club are doing all they can to cash in on this game. You need only to look at the increase in Saint JOhnstone's average crowd this season compared to last to see what effect winning a major Cup competition could have. Throw in all those extra people buying merchandise as well before and after the game and it is vital the club ensures adequate supplies of strips, scarves etc are available.

Cup Final Good Luck Messages
Some effort by Red Card and also Roger and Claire as well. I suspect they were banned by a few Twitter folks for harrassing them but it's been worth it in the end. Shame Andy Shinnie wasn't there but Harry Gow and Juanjo were the highlights for me.

Cup Final ticket sales
I'm starting to think that people want us to have a low number of fans at the game so they can say they were right that's why the figures weren't announced. As I've said before, same as caleydawson, get out there and help boost our numbers, regardless of what they are, and get more folk along to support ICT. There will not be a shortage of tickets for this game. If you want one you will almost certainly be able to get one.

Roy opens cheque book again
I went to have a look on Richard Brittains Twitter what he was saying about getting released and found out he has blocked me. I don't think I've ever tweeted the guy. Maybe he just spends his spare time blocking ICT fans on social media.

New Home Shirt 2014-15
I actually think the black away kits we have had recently have been the smartest strips we have had in a long time.

Saw a guy with United and ICT stuff on the way to the ground and assumed it was maarlon trying to punt some of his shite gear onto Inverness fans.

Contract Situation
I seem to recall that in the case of players like 'Former Future World Player of the Year' Conor Pepper some of these guys were on buttons. Was Pepper not on £60 a week? Fair enough they get their digs paid for them but they certainly weren't well paid. Perhaps it's the same for folk like Horner? EDIT: I'm sure it was a quote attributed to Butcher that said CP was getting £60 a week. Perhaps it was tongue in cheek.

I'd have him back but he's already (rumoured to have) shot down this rumour (see OTB).

Cup Final ticket sales
Instead of worrying about how many tickets we have told or Falkirk have sold how about drumming up some additional sales for ICT by getting family or friends to go along? Try and get as many folk involved as possible.

Cup Final ticket sales
I have been to only 5 games at TCS this season, but have managed 14 away games? Does that mean I am a glory hunter? Yes. I hope you return your tickets right away.

Joe - you could always volunteer to lend a hand? I'm sure the folk in the club shop would appreciate it.

St. Johnstone on Saturday
I take it this is the pre match thread? So little chat about our games these days. There's not been a lot between the sides in the two games I've seen this season. A 2 - 1 win up in Inverness earlier this season was cancelled out by a Saints victory just before Christmas thanks to some outrageous cheating by Brian Graham. We also won 2 - 0 in Inverness in January but I wasn't there so can't comment much on that. Certainly agree with the earlier comment(s) about the Home sides tending to emerge as the winner in these games. Draper is still out suspended for us and Brill is of course still injured. Despite losing against Aberdeen last week we performed well aside from our poor finishing which costs us at least a point. I suspect Hughes will stick with much the same side as last week although perhaps Ross might make way for Doran who impressed in his brief cameo. I reckon we'll line up as follows: Esson Raven Warren Meekings Shinnie Tansey Williams Watkins Christie Ross (or Doran) Ofere Recently, Watkins has often pushed up alongside Ofere with Christie drifting out to the right and Ross tucking into the middle with Shinnie going up and down the left. This stifled Logan completely last weekend who seldom got beyond the halfway line and helped create a number of good chances for us which we simply didn't take. Hopefully we can be more clinical this week. No reason why we couldn't win it but the home teams, as mentioned already, tend to emerge victorious in these recent match ups so with that in mind I'm going for Saints 2 - 1 ICT.

Stop Press tonight is the NFL drawt
Nothing at all about Laurence being boring! I can't wait until I'm (much) older. I plan to sit in shopping centres tripping people up with my walking stick. Anyway, I agree with what he (Laurence) says about the 49ers. Tomsula has been promoted to Head Coach as the 49ers try to seek success from within the organisation. I just don't see it. Nothing to do with Tomsula but more the players they have. Patrick Willis retiring was the big shock this season and veteran DT Justin Smith may also be retiring. Gore has left so the RB slot is going over to Reggie Bush. Interesting pick but I don't see him replicating his previous form. Getting Torrey Smith in is a decent enough deal but the secondary is weak along with much of the defensive side of the team. I would imagine a lot of the picks in the draft will be on the defensive side of the team with some offsensive picks for the future. Hopefully a drama free summer unlike last year.
