  1. The Tunnel Crew have had a few belters over the years ...... with Myself, Big Stu, Calum, Doresboy, Taz, Uncle Albert, ATT and P&B all in close attendance there was frequently an unspoken competition to out-do each other. Think Taz was usually declared the winner with some cutting yet humorous outbursts. Cant remember quite what he said, but he had Yogi Hughes almost rolling on the ground during one of the games when Frank Connor started chasing the stand side linesman up the park waving one of his sticks at him .... guess that wouldnt happen in the SPL (no 4th official in lower divisions) :015: :015: :015: to be fair to Yogi - he was also one of the best on the other side of the wall - frequently opposing managers/subs got quite annoyed with remarks from the stand but Yogi would have a laugh and a joke and join in.

    ask the wife that question ..... :015: :015: :015:
  3. This is something myself and Don were talking about for the history section .... to see if we could get ALL tops from all seasons added. We have scores, reports and such like and I probably have around 4000 pics from the first few years so hopefully we might be able to do something along these lines. I know of someone who would hopefully create artwork showing them so that we are not breaking any photo copyright if we could get the actual pics and then render an artists impression [similar to the shirts used in the next fixture module (but bigger)] .... so if anyone has pics, they could be sent to me here and we can try and create this history section ......... (as well as filling out the ICT pages of the oldshirts site :004:

  5. You could be right, maybe the site creator could create a section for teams that are no longer in existence - Third Lanark, Clydebank, Caledonian, Inverness Thistle etc etc ....
  6. EWS - click on the shirt and in the description, the person who uploaded it has stated it was a pre-merger Thistle shirt
  7. all for it !! The members club has served its purpose and since membership in it has been closed for a number of years (1996 / 1997 ?) it is only fair that the shares they were given are moved across to a body that is open for all fans to join. To my mind, the Supporters Trust should be an umbrella body that contains other 'lesser' organisations within it (perhaps as affiliates) - such as the official supporters club, other independent supporters organisations, members club, perhaps even a travel club for when we get into Europe .... these other organisations can then go about their business in whatever way they need to but the main supporters trust should be the liaison and focus point to bring fan issues to the club. The Supporters Trust may be in its infancy, and I know you have issues about certain things CaleyD, but I am fairly happy as a supporter that there is a decent level of experience and expertise on there at the moment. I am sure the faces will change over the coming seasons and when it comes election time we will undoubtedly give some space to anyone wishing to publish their manifesto if there are actually enough people putting their names forward to require a vote [seem to remember from my time on the Supporters Club committee that we virtually had to press gang people to be on it !!!]
  8. from having a look at the user registrations, I have to concur with Clacher and Alex that killiefan is not the aforementioned former member of the BeniDrumCorp :004:
  9. you are assuming its true and not just paper talk ...... Mark McCulloch was a good player for us, but the emphasis is WAS. Personally dont see that he would add anything extra to the current squad ... he must be getting on a bit too ? he played for us many moons ago ...
  10. might be why I put a picture of one of the most exciting players (when on form) to have worn an ICT shirt right beside that question :004:
  11. OK Folks - its now online :001: -HERE-

    The Pitch

    Very True ... Tommy has always kept the pitch in great shape, even if he does like to ***** about it. [attach=1] Tommy Cumming - The only solution for when Life's A Pitch :004:

    The Pitch

    Total faith in Tommy .... but unfortunately, his comments after the USH was laid went something like ... "They $%##^% up my pitch, its $%##^% I tell you, $%##^%!!! "
  14. currently trying to 'recover' a drive that has more than 4000 pictures on it .... have quite a few of the old shirts within that .... will post them if i can make the drive well again :011:
  15. nope - just about there - had a few distractions that meant I wasnt able to get the article typed up, but think its almost ready (8 pages !!!) definitely maybe online by this weekend
  16. cant get your link to work ..... not sure if its my work firewall or something else but basically, if it is a pressurised container then it is prohibited and you will not get it in legally.
  17. Can always get the Fixture List - HERE - without resorting to the BBC :004: .... just 'expand' the 'Footy Focus' menu on the left [attach=1]
  18. [li]This game is ALL TICKET[/li] [li]Adults £19.00[/li] [li]Concessions £13.00 (over 60 and under 16 only)[/li] [li]No Student Prices[/li] [li]No Under12 passports[/li] [li]Wheelchair and carer tickets are free of charge but must contact ICT before game to be put on list that is sent to Falkirk.[/li] Details on official site
  19. no need for that !! - while not spectacular, I wouldnt mind ICT being in Killie's shoes .... top 6 finish the last few years and seldom skirt with relegation ..... and not only that, its a realistic goal for us to be there as they got 6th spot the last couple of years at our expense.
  20. At the end of the day, Bonzo is entitled to his opinion ... I dont happen to agree with it, being one of those who is still 100% behind Charlie, but he is entitled to hold whatever opinion he wants and express it on here. He is right to say we are not performing well at the moment, but I disagree with the assertion that the only way to put it right is to get rid of the manager. If we keep underperforming then inevitably that will be what happens, but Charlie has had as many good results as he has had shockers so to suggest he goes is like suggesting cutting off your leg above the knee to cure an ingrowing toenail .... ie. overkill. get behind the team, get behind the manager ...... and get behind me in the pie queue :004:
  21. Ok - here's my tuppence worth Goal: Mark Brown without a doubt. Defence: The solid 4 is Tokely, Dods, Munro and Hastings. I would like to see Caff playing more often but realistically, he would only replace Dods / Munro who are not under-performing Midfield: This is where it gets interesting. We dont really have anyone to replace Barry on the right and although he tires more quickly these days, he really has to start as he is probably our most consistent outfield player this season. Perhaps he could play for 60 minutes and be replaced regularly (ie. in most games) by Zander who can play on either wing Richie Hart can also play there but I think he is more effective in the middle. On the left we have a choice of McBain, Rankin, or Morgan. Rankin is probably the most skillful, but we have seen that Morgan has pace and a decent cross so it would be between those two for me as choice on the left. In the middle, I think we should go for either Black or Duncan in a slightly defensive midfield 'grafter' role. Duncan gets loads of abuse for the things he does wrong, but even if his passes go astray, he does still work hard - an unsung hero sort of role. I think Blackie could also do this with some aplomb. The other midfield spot would be a slightly attacking role and for this, I think we have got to go either with Richie Hart getting forward or Bayne playing deeper. Both will work hard to win the ball and can hopefully deliver a telling pass to the front two. Liam Keogh is another option but as he is out injured, not considered for my lineup :004: Forwards: Dargo and Wyness. The Dargo-Wyness combination netted a shedload of goals from November - March last season so maybe its time for them both to get a run of games together. In certain games I would like to see McSwegan get a start (assuming he recovers from current injury). We got him as cover for our strikers and to me, cover is not just for injuries, its also for loss of form. None of our other 4 strikers (Bayne, Dargo, Wyness, McAllister) are scoring regularly enough to have an automatic start. They complain of lack of service so if we can get that right and they still dont score then the experience of McSwegan might be whats needed. so (assuming all are fit) here is my final choice: Brown Tokely Munro Dods Hastings Black Wilson Rankin Hart Dargo Wyness
  22. Think we need to put you in touch with Feb8th :015:
  23. sorry - have had some non-website related technical issues that I need to resolve first. am working on it and will get article online as soon as I can.
  24. According to a caller on Your Call he is off to Derby. I could also see him turning up at Tannadice if the grocer dipped deep into the wallet - reuniting him with Levein. No way we could afford him.
  25. Heres a timeline, with what I can remember of commentators comments Roy McBain (3) - commentators sounded surprised, nothing in it John Rankin (10) - 50-50 shirt pull most times no booking, unlucky - ref seems fussy Samuel (14) - commentators sounded incredulous, start wondering why Dougal is so fussy Mair (30) - No idea why he was booked - not a bad tackle in game according to commetators Richard Hastings (38) - commentators agreed that they have never seen Dougal so 'fussy' Stuart McCaffrey (43) - the only 'deserved' booking so far
