Could be GOOD news both on and off the park as Judas splashes out even more of the Butchers' spondoolachs 21 June 2006 - Daily Retard MY ARABS SWITCH TAKES HEAT OFF LEE - DUNDEE UNITED SWOOP Robb ready for flak after ditching Dens for rivals By Euan Mc Arthur STEVEN ROBB last night completed his cross-city move to Dundee United -and believes it will ease the pressure on close pal Lee Mair. Robb followed in the footsteps of ex-Dundee team-mate Mair by signing a two-year deal to join Craig Brewster's new-look United on a free transfer. The 24-year-old, a lifelong United fan, will join forces again with Mair who signed for the Arabs amid a blaze of controversy last year. And he reckons he's done his mate a huge favour swapping Dens for Tannadice as the former Dark Blues pair look to lead United into a bold new era next season. Robb said: "Lee was one of the first to text me to say congratulations. We had a wee laugh that it would take the heat off him a little bit. "Hopefully the fans will understand too. It's now just a case of me proving to them that I can work hard to do the business on the park. "Obviously, it took a lot of thought and I spoke to my family about it all. But in the end the main factor was that Dundee United play in the SPL and it's a career decision. "I've been at Dundee since I was 15 and it wasn't the way I wanted to leave so that's what saddened me most." Brewster finally got his man after narrowly missing out on Robb over a year ago when the then-Inverness gaffer tried to lure him north. Robb opted to stay put but couldn't knock back Brew a second time. He said: "I've known Craig since he played for United. When a manager wants to take you to the second club he's been at it's always a big bonus." Robb was paraded at Tannadice with ex-Dunfermline striker Noel Hunt and winger Craig Conway from Ayr who both signed three-year deals. Now Hunt can't wait to experience Brew's gruelling pre-season regime. He said: "I'm here basically because I want to work with Craig. Everyone knows how big on fitness the coaching team here are."

MANTIS THE FECKIN "MOD".

I take it you never play Wednesdays any more? :015: :015: :015: :015: :015:

THREE games in one week is too feckin much. Lets just play Montys' Cat and Viola and feck Fiorentina.

And as I was trying to succinctly point out Machine is entering the latter stages of his career and the "promise" of a coaching position at the demise would be advantageous to all involved. [move]This time I will be right[/move]

My temporary disablement will not detract me from a charity fuelled pilgrimage from Chorley to Sneck to take in Cafu's Testimonial, the Tink thrashing and Maimie's pish up. I am being sponsored by Shopmobility and I am going to drive the 375 miles, even if the gruelling schedule takes a fortnight. Any sponsors are invited to call as soon as possible.

Is it just me or did Brazil's opening World Cup goal not remind you of a move often employed by our good selves. Emerson (Russell Duncan), a tireless and undervalued holding midfield player, battles to win the ball deep in his own territory. He then pings a ball down the wing where the skillful, overlapping Cafu (Ross Tokely) forages forward and spies Kaka (Barry Wilson) holding back in acres of space..Kaka (Bazza) strides forward and hits a curling screamer into the corner of the net. The Boys from the Copacabana have been watching videos from the Longman!! And was it the painkillers or did I hear the Brazil fans singing "Its just like watching Tokely" after Cafu strolled back after yet another decisive burst in the second half?

I thought that it was going to be St Mirren?

Scotty and 666 is more comparable.

I was merely pointing out what Dods' agent was looking fer.

Is it reduced admission and drink prices for disabled supporters.

As long as we can still call our neighbours tinks and gypsies and sing the "Wheels on their house".

Bridge Ender has got it spot on. Avoiding relegation will always be the prime objective but a relatively unchanged squad has to be looking for Top Six and fourth spot is a distinct possibility. I am as interested in our Cup performances next season. We totally blew the chance of a league Cup semi last season and least said about the Scottish Cup the better.

I am however reliably informed that the Black and Proctor deals are "on the backburner" and will reopen when the dodgy Greek returns. The striker could be Hunt or Cowie from County or, new rumours are that it could be Morrow from Livi as part of a "deal".

Posted 20/05/06 "They immediately stated that Dods was not going anywhere. Dods is negotiating a new contract and from what I hear he will stay if it is a four year one plus a coaching position at the end."

Maybe ICT are more dogged than I thought .. according to the Sundae Male. 11 June 2006 NOBODY CAN STING TALENTED THISTLE FOR PLAYERS Rob Maclean A MONTH ago it seemed as if we were in for a football update of the 18th century Highland clearances. The season ended with a trail of envious managers and enterprising agents heading for the Caledonian Stadium hoping to strike a deal to take a player or two off the hands of impressive Inverness. It appeared at one point as if half the team might leave. Starting with Caley Thistle's former Motherwell and Rangers goalkeeper Mark Brown whose outstanding form has taken him to the brink of the Scotland squad. The predators were apparently hovering around Darren Dods as well. He's a defender who can defend and if that sounds pretty bleedin' obvious just cast your eyes around the SPL and make a lengthy list of those who can't and don't. Ross Tokely, an Inverness veteran at 26, is another member of the back four who keeps it simple and does a highly efficient job. Other clubs would love a player with his commitment. Young midfielder Ian Black is much fancied too. He's a key component of the Caley team and his promise was underlined by a call-up to the Scotland future squad. Craig Dargo is no youngster but at 28 he's playing the best football of his career and hit an eye-catching total of 20 goals last season. He's another who's on the international fringes and has drawn admiring glances from rival teams. It didn't take a degree in rocket science to guess former Caley Thistle manager Craig Brewster would fancy making a return trip to Inverness and taking a couple of his old players with him to give him the help he badly needs in his new job at Tannadice. I think it's fair to say Brew would happily have landed any of the guys listed above but there's one small problem for the Dundee United gaffer and indeed any interested parties. All those players are under contract and the club would need a transfer fee to prise them away. Maybe the old United would have just splashed some cash and done the deals pronto. But that's not the way Brewster wants to play it now as he looks to restore some harmony to a troubled dressing-room. He badly wanted Black to bolster his midfield and made a bid as well for former Hibs player David Proctor, 22, who unlike his team-mate can't claim a regular place in the Inverness side. No business has been done so far although I would be surprised if United can't revive their chances of landing Proctor. The only other likely departures from Inverness at the moment are midfielder Liam Fox who looks to be heading for Livi and reserve keeper Michael Fraser who is likely to join him there on loan. But as for the guts of the team that has cemented its place in the SPL in the last couple of campaigns, all the key players seem set to stay. That's maybe not too surprising when you consider how far the club has come. Gone are the days when just about any of the Caley Thistle players would have been ripe for the plucking by some of the bigger teams. In fact how many clubs are a better bet than Inverness if you remove the Old Firm and the Edinburgh pair from the equation? Aberdeen, Kilmarnock and Motherwell might have something to say but Caley Thistle are no longer seen as merely a stepping stone. The club is growing all the time and the players are sharing in that success story. There was no great secret behind their closing burst of five straight wins after the SPL split that confirmed them as best of the bottom six. With the best part of £60,000 between each finishing place there was every incentive for Inverness to end the season in style and the team was on a big bonus to make sure they did claim seventh spot. And with that extra prize money tucked away, financial stability behind the scenes and more TV cash on the way I understand Caley bosses have been able to increase their players' basic wages as well. It may be only by about 100 quid a week but at a time when all clubs have had to impose a sensible ceiling on salaries there's been a closing of the gap between Inverness and some of the so-called richer teams. And the pay rise is being handed out across the board. No special cases are made. Team spirit is protected. Manager Charlie Christie wants to add players rather than lose them. Midfielders Wes Hoolahan of Livi or Ross County's John Rankin could soon be joining Inverness and there's a search going on for another striker as well. So much then for all the speculation about Caley being home of the summer sales. The feelgood factor looks likely to keep one of the teams of the season together.

I hate to be the harbinger of doom but this deal, behind the scenes is well and truly still ON. We give them Proctor and Black or we lose Dods.

Saw Scotland draw 1-1 in Sofia, many moons ago, in European Championship Qualifier. Ally McCoist scored the goal. It was a very intimidating atmosphere. Hope Sofia has changed. It was the pits. Poverty, prostitutes and gypsies roaming everywhere, queues fer the food, a police state. Sounds just rite fer an old Jeggie.

I am reliably informed that Craig Brewster is interested.
