This is a Brian Moore/Kevin Keegan question "Will Batty score?" Aberdeen? say nothing 'til after the game!

and for Zibi wesoly Boze Narodzenie i pewien szczesliwego nowego roku

Was chatting with a Celt legend on Saturday night. Not much of a surprise really but stated that Strachan is not liked by many at Celtic, board are getting fed up and if they lose to Rangers in January it's ta ta.

If we get the result and as it's Austria / Switzerland there can only be 1 song for a full Hampden, The Happy Wanderer All together now!!! I love to go a-wandering, Along the mountain track, And as I go, I love to sing, My knapsack on my back. Chorus: Val-deri,Val-dera, Val-deri, Val-dera-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha Val-deri,Val-dera. My knapsack on my back.

However bad Tokely was on saturday don't ever compare what he did as being on the same level as the challenge on Brown. Tokely was stupid. The attack on Scott Brown is the real disgrace, only intention was to take another player out of the game and seriously injure him. Any player that thinks that way should not be allowed to play again at that level. Tokely will learn his lesson but there was no real evil intent as some have suggested.

Sack him or back him? It's not so easy for the club to sack him because of employment law and ECHR regs. They are basically duty bound to help an employee through a difficult time, i.e encourage rehab or counselling. But, I would think he has been told even though he may well be allowed to see out the rest of his contract he would have no chance of getting near the first team. He may well think it's best for him to make a fresh start and find another club. He's off.

Tis True guy walks into reception area at Police Station. Asks young assistant if she knew where PC Warehouse was. "I'm not sure if he's on today" she replies "Hang on, I'll put out a call for him". Uses the tannoy but quickly gets a phonecall from somewhere else in the building. Looks a bit puzzled and say's to the man " Sorry, he doesn't work at this office". Man answers back "No, I'm looking for the computer store PC WAREHOUSE !

If what the press say about NW not even being spoken to then that really puts the club in a bad light and a bit embarrasing really. You have an experienced and high profile manager pratically saying "come and get me" yet no one has the decency even to make contact and say "we are aware of your interest in the job which we appreciate, however on this time we have decided to go with.....". Boy's club again, "i'll see you right mate". The reasoning that managers given first chance to prove themselves at ICT paid off was a success is not that true. Brewster, obvious what people think. CC, decent guy but pushed into a job he didn't really want or felt comfortable with? What's going to happen this time? If you buy cheap, you get cheap. Should Grassa stand down? For me, YES.

Brewster has just announced that he would love to have returned here. However after a difficult heartfelt decision he has decided to accept the Riyadh Rangers job as he could never turn down the Arabs!

I don't know if it's been mentioned anywhere else here but getting N.W would surely build the media attitude toward our club. He'd no doubt have something interesting / controversial to say after a game which media would relish. Instead of being a passing mention by many (Scotsport erses) we'd probably be first on the list. How would Andy Walker and his sidekick feel about having to talk about ICT before Hibs?

I don't think Coyle and St. J failed to take advantage of Gretna's stuttering as much as people are implying. They were pretty much victims of their own success because of their cup run to the semi final, having really a limited squad. If they hadn't done so well in the cup I've no doubt they would have won the league fairly easily in the end. Coyle looks pretty sharp and did well against Prem teams without playing himself! Remember Brewster the player against the Brewster the manager. In my opinion Coyle is streets ahead of Brewster.

Looking at his video clips on website - if he can produce that kind of form again then we've got some player!

Henry, Ronaldhino, Puyol, Eto'o, Deco, Messi in a Champs League quarter final.

Back in the old Telford Street days, Hastings scored some crackers from free kicks. I also wondered why he stopped taking them when we moved to new ground. Let him try again I say.

Nothing wrong with a short term contract including performance related bonuses to take his wage near to what he wants. If he say's he can score goals for us then it's up to him to do it if he wants a big wage. Even if he lasts only til next window and is sold in January he may have scored plenty to give a good start in the league. Speculate to accumulate they say!

Moving slightly off topic, does anyone happen to know if Setanta is shown anywhere in Heathrow? Don't get back til Sunday morning?

Playing all our games at TCS = less travelling for other teams = fewer emissions

Dexy's - Geno changed a little to: That man took the stage, he was swingin' high Oh Deano This man was my bombers, my Dexy's, my high Oh-oh-oh Deano The crowd they all hailed you, and chanted your name But they never knew like we knew Me and you were the same Oh Deano , Woh-oh-oh Deano Oh Deano , Woh-oh-oh Deano
