IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER

So do I.

Its nice to gloat - its feckin orgasmic. :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:

Whats the comparison between Elgin and a Norwegian ballad. "Nil" points. :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:

We could be Elgin. :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: Apologies for a pointless post. :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: Any more play on words.

BROWN :015: :015: :015: :015: Had little to do but just oozes confidence. At the moment is simply the best. If only we could persuade Walter!! TOKELY :015: :015: :015: :015: I still do not think he is 100% but he just keeps going and going and his reaction after scoring just endears him more. DODS :015: :015: :015: Solid as ever but it is games like yesterday when his lack of skill and passing inability is just wholly evident. MUNRO :015: :015: :015: Still makes that wee one or two mistakes but plays the ball better than Dodsy. HASTINGS :015: :015: :015: Despite what Caley100 thinks he is a solid enuff defender - a central defender - but I cannot understand why Morgan isnt regarded as being ahead of him on the left. WILSON :015: :015: :015: Sponsors MOM on the basis that most of the passes that were'nt wellied went to him and he was the ONLY player who looked like creating anything. MCBAIN :015: :015: :015: Played in right midfield!! :010: Nuff said RANKIN :015: :015: Not sure where he was playing or in what role. Bet he fedkin doesnt know either. He needs a goal and the miss yesterday dented his brittle confidence even more. But I bet the scores at Castle Greyskull. HART :015: :015: :015: Played wide left :010: Got stuck in but little else. BAYNE :015: :015: :015: A 100%er but his flicks and hold ups either go astray or back to midfield. There is no understanding with Dargo. He could have scored if not thwarted by the save of the season by French fries. DARGO :015: :015: :015: Felt really sorry fer him. Some great runs which were rarely seen or delivered to. Must be so frustrated playing with Bayne. RORY :015: :015: :015: On fer dargo and not Bayne :010: His running really unsettled the Pars and his arrival warmed up the North Stand. SUTHERLAND :015: :015: :015: Hard to judge but it was great to see a wee traditional winger, especially on the left. He is deffo worth a run of games.

Or as John Daly would have said "Pars are a load of feckin shyte. Give me a feckin eagle any feckin day". And wee Zander soared and swooped regally on the wing and was a feared bird of prey whilst the other members of the flock were just like feckin seagulls - with a few feckin tits preening themselves at the same time.

Before I slag Rankin I would really like to know exactly what feckin role and instructions CC gave him yesterday. He was neither a playmaker or an attacking midfielder. At times he looked completely feckin lost. Hart and McBain clogged up the middle of the park and, yet again, we resorted to the big hopeful welly out of defence or a long ball down the line or tried to miss out midfield and target Bayne. Tactically we were totally inept yesterday. Bayne and Dargo is another pairing that really doesnt work. Dargo got hooked but he must have been totally feckin sick off making good runs and not being given the delivery. Does Bayne ever look to where Dargo is? Rankin has to be moved to the left whether he likes it or not or e bite the bullet and give Rory and Zander a run of games. Zander brought the game to life. He hugged the left touchline and was always looking to take the defender on. That is what we have been sadly lacking fer ages. But, then again, Dumbfarmlife were totally feckin dire. We get feckin slagged off for our awy style. Their feckin game plan was clearly to pick up a 1-0 win and their feckin support made ours at Killie last week look like the feckin Nou Camp.

Old feckin git.

Have to agree with Libero in the main. We have to play tactically against Dumbfarmlife: We have to play the steady back four as they will undoubtedly go fer Crawford and Hamilton and they have rigid "stacker" defenders" so Bayne may be ineffective.. Then lets go fer: ----------------HART----------------------MCBAIN-------------------------MORGAN----------------- -----------------------------WILSON-------------------------RANKIN--------------------------------- -------------------------------------------DARGO--------------------------------------------------- or even: ------------------------HART------------------------------------MCBAIN--------------------------- --------------------------------------BLACK--------------------------------------------------------- -----------------WILSON-----------------------------------RANKIN-------------------------------- ------------------------------------DARGO----------------------------------------------------------- A la feckin Christmas tree. :011: When has our feckin formation ever been feckin tactical rather than being totally feckin predictable.

The least home games I have to attend and watch on TV the feckin better. :001: :clapping04:

As long as we are not taken over by tawts in yellow jackets called Rok Steady. And I am reliably informed that the last building company that Tullochs bought into was LEGO. But more importantly - who owes me a double voddie and coke and a pint of 70/-? Is it David feckin Sutherland, Tulloch Construction or Tulloch Ltd. Or do I now have a legitimate claim against all feckin three. :003:

It is fer you darling. :016:

In the last game of the season. :015: :015: :015: :015:

I'll get the rites fer the initiation ceremony ready. :015: :015:

You mean WERE. COME ON ARBROATH. :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:

The problems yesterday were: 300 of us in a stand area fer 1000 and everybody sitting two rows from feckin each other. Where were the feckin hard core HMS Sneck crew? All I can say is - Thank feck I am back to sort it out. :004: Get yer feckin singing voices ready fer Castle Greyskull and Middenland. :003:

May be unfair but on the evidence of my first 45 minutes of scrutiny I really do NOT think that they are a middle of the park pairing. We played a very structured 4-2-4 in the first half. Bazza operating exclusively on the right, Black in the right hand side and Rankin on the left hand side of the middle and McBain on the left. That curtails Bazza and McBain looked like a fish out of water. Both Black and Rankin wanted to pick up the ball from the defence almost every time. Rankin getting the majority of the passes may have pissed off Black. Black tended to hold more whereas Rankin made the runs that McBain should have been making. They both want to be playmaker and that simply does'nt work. There was a distinct improvement in the second half but Rankin failed to grab the opportunity to shine. He has a good engine and has a very cultured left foot but he doesnt look like an SPL playmaker yet. McBain looked considerably more at ease in a holding type role, Bazza could roam and Hart also played a bit deeper. So lets give Bazza the playmaker role (he is the only one with the football brain and experience). If Blackie comes back I would persist with him as the playmaker and swop Hart fer Wilson. Rankin has a sweet left foot and some of the crosses from Rankin and Hart today were as good as I have seen in ages. Rankin needs to learn the SPL trade so stick him on the left and let him gain experience.

Agree with most of yer player comments Hairy cept: Rosscoe isnt 100% fit. He looks to be struggling when pushing forward. Hastings was a stout defender but is frightened of having a feckin nose bleed when he gets 25-30 yards from the opposition goal. Munro totally lost Nish at the goal. McBain, Black Bazza and Hart - spot on. Bayne was my MOTM. Dargo not only missed a sitter but his final pass to Bayne in front of goal was DIRE. I suspect the bad knock he took early doors hampered him. Rory really should have scored or tested the keeper.

Black's crass stupidity could have cost us the game yesterday. He began mouthing McCurry at a very early stage and was "warned" even before the booking. But then he forearmed a Killie player, cringed thinking "I am off" and went to ground, then realised that neither the ref or the linesman had seen the incident and was very, very fortunate not to get a straight red. Then kicking the ball into the net when even I had heard the whistle. He really should have gone for that and I cannot understand how McCurry let it go. I reckon McCurry may have forewarned CC or Dods that one more blemish and he would be offski. It could also be the frustration of not getting as much of the ball as Wilson and Rankin. But thats another talking point.

Or feck aff ya wee **** and stop talking shyte. :015: :015: :015: :015:

Could be worse. Could be Danny McGrain.

HEY ya marsupial *******. Put some spondoolachs in yer feckin pouch and buy the pommie bestards a drink.

Hunters Lodge is the usual gathering place so you feck aff to the Park Hotel. :015: :015: IM FECKIN BACK. :clapping04: :clapping04: :clapping04:

Why doesnt CC pat their feckin erses or cup their spectacles on the way off or get Mrs Paulie Bee to do it for him. :015: :015: :015: :015: :015: BELIEVE - Rankin will come good and so will Dargo - and so will McAllister. The most important revelation in this thread is Cold John Smiths in the Innes. :010: :010:

I am reliably informed that Naismith is a deffo non starter.
