Quite often the case throughout most games that he plays in as he demonstrates that he couldn't successfully pass wind if he tried.

I think Butcher was the one that released Coakley... Could be wrong though.

:023: Why didn't you? I'd have had difficulty restraining myself if I'd heard that...

Quite ironic as Imries shyte performance on the last game contributed to our downfall. You got your quotes mixed up there?...

If one of the Accies fans are to be believed on P&B, they had a ?100k bid for three of our players quite rightly knocked back.

:022: Is there something in the water? Like I said to the other bloke that jumped to conclusions - care to point out where I've blamed the ball boys? I'm sure if you trawl around though there'll be other threads you can join in with without knowing what's going on or understanding what's been said

What a bizzare post. Care to point out where I've blamed the ball boys for the team performance?

Fair play to Montrose, you fairly gave us a scare! There were a fair few decisions that the referee got wrong today - it was a decent penalty shout you had. I have to say I was not impressed with your big number 9's flying forearm smash into the back of Cox's head. Not good craic that at all - and he just got up and walked away without waving to the ref to stop play. It's rude to be noisy in the main stand or something like that.

I forgot Proctor existed for a moment to be honest. No idea what's wrong with him!

Amen to that! Although I felt McBain gets a pass for effort today as well.

Odhiambo - Out for around a month with a broken metatarsel I think (courtesy of Tokely in training) Imrie - No idea for how long or why but I think he's due to make a return soon Eagle - Again no idea how long or why Hayes - Looked like a nasty knock on his shin or knee, time will tell how long he's out for Foran - Just a knock hopefully, should be back pretty quickly Barrowman - Come on, like we're really going to miss this waste of wages.

It's not often I get to use the smug smiley, but I am extremely pleased that someone agrees with me about Duncan. He has been poor for a long time now - I cannot for the life of me comprehend why he was given a new contract yet Wyness was released.

Shift Rosscoe to right back and do nothing about LDZ, Duncan and Barrowman? Not even a minor blip?! Unless you hadn't noticed we were just taken to penalties by a team from the 3rd Division that didn't even play that well. You're not even concerned by the fact that Butcher put McBain up front? I did not enjoy watching that dross and I will be waiting for a few games yet before deciding to get my season ticket.

Fair enough the expletives are out of order, but the rest of it isn't. The ball boys are there to retrieve the ball as quickly as they can. If Djebi-Zadi thought of it earlier he'd have beaten the ball boy in charge of the "West Stand" to ball no sweat at all. Even if each ball boy was actually given a ball to put back into play then spend the next 10 mins retrieving the ball that went out it'd be an improvement. The other obvious solution would be to make Djebi-Zadi, Duncan and Barrowman ball boys. They'd be a lot more productive in those positions. It's not just the game today though, this has been an issue for several seasons now.

What game were you watching? I can't agree with any of that at all. Well except about Hayes looking threatening but the rest just didn't happen at all. The only thing Straford could do right was over lapping Ross on the wing. That was it. His passing was attrocious, the corners that seemed to be left to him to take were hopeless. As the game went on, he over lapped Ross more and more because Ross was knackered. It wasn't that they were working well together at all. Lionel and Russel were both absolutely abysmal today. I reckon both players 'completed pass' stats today were in single figures. Both need to just give up as footballers, they have been masquerading as such for quite long enough. Foran showed nothing but laziness all afternoon. He just didn't chase balls, he couldn't even compete in the air any more!

Oh dear. We really were f**king hopeless today. We started off reasonably well but then this long ball pish started and it all went downhill from there. We'd be as well not having a midfield. Esson - Bizzare shout in the first half for a corner that he was no where near. Improve your communication! Stratford - Pish. Just plain pish. There better be more to come from you this season. Tokely - Can't think of anything of note that Tokely did for the entire game. A couple of good clearing headers but that was about it. Munro - Not good enough for a captain. If you want to be captain, I suggest you start laying into your players that aren't pulling their weight. Djebi-Zadi - Just f**k off. You're not a footballer and you're fooling no one but Butcher. Total liability in the team. Ross - Not bad I thought. Looks a little light weight and could do with working on his crossing but apart from that he could turn into a decent wee player for us. Duncan - Just f**k off. You're a disgrace to the ICT shirt and you're not a footballer. Abysmal effort today. Cox - Clear man of the match. Decent shift put in and looks like a valuable acquisition. Hayes - Didn't really see enough of him to be able to pass judgement but it appeared we missed his pace on the left when he went off. Foran - Surprisingly disappointed. He appears to have magically lost his aerial ability over the summer and just looked like he couldn't be arsed. Barrowman - Just f**k off. If you can't even do basic forward duties against a team like Montrose, why the f**k are you one of the highest paid players at our club? Again, like Duncan and Djebi-Zadi - you are not a footballer. McBain - Contender for man of the match with Cox. Didn't quite have the pace of Hayes but still managed to beat his man a couple of times. Rooney -Poor today. Didn't appear to ever want to shoot and when he did it was weak and straight at the keeper. Frankly, I expected more from you. Hastings - Considering how long it's been since has had first team football with us I'm surprised at how well he did on the left wing. Butcher - Not sure what your game plan was today unless your game plan was long ball pish. McBain up front? What the hell were you thinking? You have a lot of work to do sir. Officials - F**king woeful - I hope this isn't the standard we can expect for this season. Ball Boys - Can the club not do something about this?! Our ball boys are hopeless!!

County for relegation? :(

Definitely better than what I expected. Just imagine the calibre of player we could have attracted if we were still in the SPL :(

I have to say, as sure as I was of relegation this time last year - I'm pretty confident we'll be promoted this season :(

What good would come of that? Or was that your point? In any case, wash your mouth out with soap mun!

It's quite clearly a sign. The messiah is here! :)

Correct, he's with some third division French outfit now I believe.

Agree with this. We badly need a right winger.

Extremely underwhelmed by this. After the abomination of a home shirt I expected a bit better from the away shirt but that is bloddy awful. Looks like it's going to be at least another year before I'll buy another ICT shirt...

No Foran and now no Odhiambo for the first game of the season :D
