  1. :clapping03: :clapping03: :021: :021:   Well done Magic Marius!!!

    But this is the "provisional" squad. Does that mean the manager has to drop some members of it for the actual tournament?

    Yes but according to reports over there he will take 4 strikers which will include Marius, there will be a lot of midfielders in provisional and that is where majority of the trimming will be done, it is expected that the final 23 will be the same squad that was chosen for the Russia game which Marius was obviously in.

    so who out of the forwards would you expect too drop out of the provisional?

  2. CRAIG Brewster has stepped up his attempts to sign Andrew Barrowman by putting a firm offer to the Ross County striker.

    The 23-year-old, who is currently out of contract, has been a transfer target of Brewster's since the turn of the year and it now appears the Caley Thistle manager is closing in on his first signing of the summer.

    Barrowman's 29-goal haul for County in only his first season at the club was a major factor in helping the Dingwall outfit bounce back into Division One at the first time of asking and his goalscoring exploits have not gone unnoticed by those at a higher level.

    Despite struggling to make an impression at the likes of Kilmarnock and Queen of the South, Barrowman has several SPL club's keen on securing his services, but Caley Thistle are hopeful the fact he is settled in the Highlands will help to convince the player to make the move across the Kessock Bridge.

    "We have made Andrew Barrowman an offer, so it's now up to him," said Caley Thistle's director of football, Graeme Bennett. "I think he wants some time to weigh up his options.

    "As I understand it, there are other SPL teams looking at him, but because he likes the area and he's settled in so well since coming here we're hopeful he will come to us. However, he has a number of other options, including the opportunity to stay at Ross County, so we'll wait and see what happens."

    Should Barrowman arrive, however, it will not automatically spell the end of forward Graham Bayne's Caley Thistle career.

    There has been much speculation regarding the 28-year-old's future since January when Kilmarnock had a bid of around ?50,000 for Bayne rejected on the final day of the transfer window.

    Bayne has been used sparingly by Brewster since then and that has lead to interest in the player from Division One side's St Johnstone and Dunfermline.

    Both have yet to make a formal offer, but even if one was made, Bennett insists Inverness would be reluctant to sell before they had signed a suitable replacement.

    "I would like to see players coming in before anyone else leaves," he added. "We don't want to leave ourselves short, so I can't see Graham, or anyone else for that matter, moving on at this moment."

    Bayne's fellow forward Dennis Wyness, veteran Barry Wilson and winger Markus Paatelainen look set to find out this week if they have a future at Caley Thistle.

    Brewster has already spoken to Wilson and it would seem the 36-year-old is likely to be rewarded for his recent performances with a short-term deal. However, the outlook is not so bright for either Wyness of Paatelainen.

    Wyness, a target for SPL rivals St Mirren, has been an unused substitute in Caley Thistle's last two fixtures, while a knee injury has kept Paatelainen on the sidelines for the past two weeks.

    Two players definitely staying at Inverness next season, however, are 20-year-old striker Garry Wood and defender Guy Kerr.

    Wood, who spent the season on loan at Division Three side Montrose, and Kerr (20) have put pen to paper on new two and one-year deals respectively.

    Meanwhile, Caley Thistle will be heading to Denmark in mid-July for a pre-season training camp that will include the possibility of one or two friendlies against local opposition.

    Bennett confirmed the Scandinavian country is the "likely" destination for the club's now annual sojourn abroad, while there are also plans for friendly matches closer to home against near-neighbours Ross County, St Johnstone and perhaps an English club.

    "At the moment, we are trying to tie down a date for a friendly against Ross County, but that is proving to be a little bit difficult because County's season starts on 26th July, while we begin on 9th August." explained Bennett.

  3. rosscoe23, get off redees back, she is entitled to post, as indeed you are. We all had to start somewhere. Practically every time she posts you, and one or two others, are making these same comments, give it a rest. Encourage rather than abuse, all it will do is drive people off the boards. :018:

    Is it a kind of a dream

    Floating out on the tide

    Following the river of death downstream

    Oh is it a dream

    There's a fog along the horizon

    A strange glow in the sky

    And nobody seems to know where it goes

    And what does it mean

    Ohoh is it a dream

    Bright eyes, burning like fire

    Bright eyes, how can you close and fail

    How can the light that burned so brightly

    Suddenly burn so pale

    Bright eyes

    BRIGHT EYES - 14/04/1979

    6 weeks at #1 - 19 weeks on chart

    Is it a kind of a dream

    Floating out on the tide

    Following the river of death downstream

    Oh is it a dream

    There's a fog along the horizon

    A strange glow in the sky

    And nobody seems to know where it goes

    And what does it mean

    Ohoh is it a dream

    Bright eyes, burning like fire

    Bright eyes, how can you close and fail

    How can the light that burned so brightly

    Suddenly burn so pale

    Bright eyes

    Is it a kind of a shadow

    Reaching into the night

    Wandering over the hills unseen

    Or is it a dream

    There's a high wind in the trees

    A cold sound in the air

    And nobody ever knows when you go

    And where do you start

    Oh into the dark

    Bright eyes, burning like fire

    Bright eyes, how can you close and fail

    How can the light that burned so brightly

    Suddenly burn so pale

    Bright eyes

    Bright eyes, burning like fire

    Bright eyes, how can you close and fail

    How can the light that burned so brightly

    Suddenly burn so pale

    Bright eyes

    is that it
