IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER

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

Boing

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.

YES. Charlie should stay. You are a feckin obssesively paranoid **** Bannerman. :015: :015: :015:

If we test the water the truth about the aquifer will be revealed.

I would have to say that we should be putting 110% effort and committment into the cup games this season. It is our chance of glory.

Sign of the times. I can remember school lunch at the Hay Loft but the Lochgorm and Albert were widely accesible at 14/15. !!

You are two years younger than me - Feck aff.
