  1. I take it tokely is victorious is joking? Wyness is our all time top scorer with over 100 goals. Wyness is a gent and should be treated as such. Dargo on the other hand did well and scored lots of goals but is simply numbers in terms of ICT's history. Dennis record will last for a long time. shuffle!
  2. Stirling Observer says Stirling @ 1.83
  3. Would be digusted if he was booed. When he played against us with Hearts i remember he got a good reception. Hopefully a good reception to start with then get behind the players in red and blue.
  4. Although that was my 2nd game of the season it was my 1st actually watching the team, keep alcohol away from the game kids!! hugely impressed with the youngsters, as mentioned earlier these guys will attract interest very quickly if they perform like this most weeks. Long term deals should be offered very soon. Duff was man of the match in my eyes, perfect game and even seemed to be taking control and keeping the others right. Likes to play football from the back which is great to see. Vigurs looked classy and composed, at ease at this level. Wood had a solid game, maybe still a bit to learn but is a very handy player to have around. Everybody got pass marks. I wouldnt say we dominated but we deserved to win on chances created. Mikey didnt have much to do really. Falkirk were pretty blunt up front. Seemed to be a defensive mix up between maguire and hastings who left the responsibility to each other and their guy slid and cut the ball back, easy finish. That was a revived Tokely in my opinion, really up for it, played a stormer and delighted with the win. Good strikes for both goals which were hardly well worked but they all count. Decent composure by a couple of players not to just swing at it and hit us with the ball. Summary - good away win
  5. Hi, Id be interested in joining, was well into this the first year it ran, not so the second year as i didnt have easy access to the internet. Not a problem this year though. Will i just stick a bet on the week 2 naps page?
  6. I have only seen him once for County against RRFC and was aware he was an ICT target so kept a close eye on his performance. I agree he is a Kris Boyd style striker. Likes the hang around the box, very little chasing/ harrying defenders but knows where the goal is. I imagine he will be easy meat for experienced SPL defenders in many games if he doesnt recieve any service which seemed to happen a lot last season with ICT. In terms of a partnership up front, i think we would benefit from a pacy, on the last defender, run inbehind style (similar to Dargo) striker to partner marius if he stays. A bit off topic but talking about signings my main concern is a commanding centre half to fill the gaping 'machine' shaped hole. Theres my tuppenceworth, observe and consume.
  7. Best thing about them going up is you can watch the game for nothing. They have a bank behind one of the goals and can get a cracking view. Hopefully we get them in the summer months. However if you wish to 'carry out' some activities you are highly visible to everybody including police, stewards and the control room. Heard rumours of ?40 on the spot fines being handed out so beware! Good to get a new venue, pubs, etc to explore They will compete, SPL is competitive due to general poor standard and as long as you dont go into administration
  8. out and about at 3.30am, then ended up at a party in Elgin! Not the way i expected the day to go. Was only 5 hours late for work on the Sunday. Oops
  9. i just had an early night. Got offered free accomodation that i simply couldnt refuse :029:
  10. Good news for me, this will be my first game in aaaaaaaaaaages.
  11. Dont want to be negative but i would be very suprised if this game will be on, heavy rain all night so far, Particks has already been called off
  12. This might be a pointless question and far too premature but are the Club still planning on building a social club near the ground? In Holland etc Ultras/supporters clubs have their own pubs/social clubs they run. Perhaps if a new pub/social club was being considered the new ultra idea could have a voice/opinion of the decor/or a room/somewhere to feel a part of
  13. Ultras is widely accepted in mainland europe and i predict it will take off in the UK if the clubs support the fans. I think you need the support of the majority of the fans and more importantly the club. I think involving the name of the stand would be a good start (bridge end/north) Original is best These are my thoughts, good luck, i will support whenever possible
  14. I can see the point about it being money for the club by having the away supporters in and in no way am i represent the majority but i rarely go to home games against the old firm due to the number of away fans in the home end. I would rather watch it on setanta and save my money for a game v well/hibs ect and non OF. Why? because at these games there is segregation where i dont have to listen to opposition fans sitting around me spouting bigoted songs and abusing the home players. I reckon i can be quite passionate but not confrontational at games but i feel myself getting so frustrated at these games that i dont enjoy them.
  15. Coming from Burghead Inverness Caley was a much questioned choice, my old boy used to take me every sat to any nearby highland league game, there was plenty rothes, forres, elgin, lossie etc. Always enjoyed the caley games due to high scoring, bigger crowds, old boy would then take me to telford st any time possible. Not being from inverness and still quite young was pretty unaware of the merger chat so happily merged into an ICT supporter. Used to have Hearts as a big club, but although want them to do well there are not a big part in my life. See Hearts and Caley as my old teams with my fav players but more for memories (wilson robertson, charlie christie, john colquhoun, robbo, pasquale bruno). The future is ICT
  16. Do i really feel like Chicken tonight?
  17. I usually avoid the old firm games like the plague but went along because it was the first game of the season and all that. I was late in getting my ticket so was at the front row of Section A. I had read many stories on this messageboard about away fans in the home end and was expecting a couple. Not long before kick off, a bald drunk guy blatantly standing singing the usual 'rangers' filth pipes up behind me. I make a comment to him but it is ignored. I couldnt see any stewards or police in front of me but plenty beside the singing section. There were obviously more in there aswell. Went Barry scored roughly 40 jumped up behind me. I caught a Policeman walking past and said there was 40 in here. The drunk loud lot got evicted and after the rest were alot quieter. The fans were jumping again at the 2nd goal and got more cocky, shouting abuse at Rosscoe. Nothing was done, most left right after their third. It seems this was mild compared with usual. I was raging the whole game and will revert to setanta again when the weegies are in town.
  18. We were very poor today. Grantie seemed quiet and there was indecision in the defence. Too many long balls although limited options offered by the midfield. Need a more commanding presence in there. Perhaps switch Tokely with Caff? Definetly need to sign another def. Midfield was lightweight and pretty non existent. Must have been hard with Rangers playing 3 in the middle. McBain was ok when he had the ball but marking and tackling in the middle is not his game. Think we need a sitting player which gives Blackie/Hart whoever more freedom. Wide players didnt get into the game at all because they were never given the ball to there feet. Charlie has promised changes lets hope it works. Strikers received no decent service. Wyness needs the ball into his feet. Rory had a poor game like many others but again was feeding off of scraps. The result wasnt Rorys fault its a team game
  19. I wish him all the best, he was a good servant and made some memorable saves. Who wouldnt turn down a chance to move to Celtic, its worth the risk of not getting a game, if Boruc got injured he would have been number 1. Mike Fraser is the future and he could turn out to be as good if not better than mark. P.s i rate Gow
  20. Surely the shout/chant was a simple wind up of all those St Mirren fans who have held a huge grudge against Rosscoe, they seem confident it was deliberate. Only Rosscoe knows, but bad tackles meant or not happen and players get injured. Good challenges also cause injures, its the nature of the game. Accept it and move on is what i would say to St Mirren fans, especially after the number of years which have passed since the incident.
  21. I dont no if anyone else has noticed him but i rate Clydes Neil Macgregor. Last i read he is out of contract in the summer. Seems more and more players are taking the risk of not signing contract extentsions and seeing whos interested.
