  1. Only in North America would the lazy cnuts have a snow shovel with a wheel.
  2. Techincally, the Queen could remain the Scottish Monarch - although I have absolutely no reason why we would want her or any of the hangers on. In fact, when we become Independent we should throw all the leaching royals off our land and reclaim it for ourselves, either that or we should impose some kind of "Royalty Tax" upon them.
  3. IMO, Bayne is doing more to warrant his place in the team than Dargo at present so I fail to see how we can justify dropping him ahead of Dargo - if either was to be dropped. Also, Dargo has as good as stated himself that he will only be able to score goals if he gets better service and since we don't have a setup to provide that service then I think we should put Wyness in his place to see if he can do any better alongside Bayne.
  4. Only one thing worse than a compulsive moaning ICT fan...thats a compulsive moaning Hibs fan pretending to be an ICT fan.
  5. Not only is not much of a curse, it seems to be a fact that the boo-boys would rather ignore when they are having a pop at CC.
  6. Agree or Disagree with it....shouting at players/officials/managers has been part of the match day experience since Mantis was a boy (did they have football then???) - I just think that some people need to grow thicker skins and realise that, on the whole, it's not done out of any kind of hatred and is more of a release of frustration. I'd rather see people shouting at bad tackles, passes, decisions etc than sitting quietly saying nowt. At least if they are shouting then it shows that they actual care somewhat about whats going on. Now before people start jumping on me, I realise their are different levels of "abuse" and I agree that certain things should not be tolerated, but giving a player an earbashing for a bad pass/tackle or whatever isn't doing any harm...and in that regard I think the players need to grow a thicker skin.
  7. Taking a "Wider View" means looking at more than the last handful of games. Look at the season so far as a whole and you'll see that it's not as bad as you try to make out. CC must have been doing something right to have got us up there to start with, so I think it's wrong to dismiss him as totally unproven. Yes, he is still learning, and yes he will make mistakes...but his overall record to date doesn't present any evidence that we are heading for relegation with him in charge. OK, so we've had a bad run....chit happens and it won't just be us it happens to.
  8. Conversation must be slow around the photocopier today....if you can cite a reliable source for the information it will bemoved back to the main forum section.
  9. Sorted :004:
  10. Still think Morgan is worthy of a start, or at the very least an appearance off the bench for the first team. He has something which seems to be lacking for us at the moment and thats the ability to deliver a dangerous cross into the box from the flanks. If the Strikers want more service, this is the kind of player we should be putting on the park.
  11. McAllister, for me, reminds me of players like Rossco, Daisy and Teasdale (at their respective levels) - he doesn't have much finnesse, but he seems to get the job done. When he gets the ball at his feet and gets moving he looks like a very difficult player to tackle. Too eraly to be passing judgement, but if he doesn't make it as a striker then I think he could still have a very good career in the middle of the park somewhere with his ability to run at defenders.
  12. The moment I saw the "Source" was the Daily Record it was a sure fire candidate for the Rumour Mill...in fact I was tempted to move it Anything Goes :015:
  13. I might just be lacking the necessary pace to play on the wing. Not the best of players and used to get stuck in at RB when I played......This one time, at band camp when our RBS team was playing against Standard Life in Edinburgh the oppositions left winger couldn't get past me for love nor money (and he offered me both). Anyway, one of his team mates shouts at him....wtf's your problem, he's a fat barsteward, to which the winger replied......well you try running round something that feckin size :015: And back on topic.....I'm not going to try and second guess the selection for this Saturday, all I would say is that whoever we play I'd like to see us up the number of pops we take at goal. Show we aren't afraid to have a go and force them into keeping their back row deep so we can push on to them from the middle of the pitch instead of our own third of the pitch for a change.
  14. I thought the (end) response was pretty good to be honest. There's only a finite number of questions you can realistically ask and expect answers too and I believe most of them have been covered.
  15. Censure or no censure, the press should not have been his first port of call for these statements. Had he talked to CC and got no joy and felt he needed to take it further then perhaps people may have been a little more understanding.
  16. Have to back up Chibber with regards to Dargo, he has gone from a player who used to chase everything and create some of his own chances to a player who expects every ball to be given to him at his feet - and if I were to hazard a guess, I would say thats the reason he finds himself being subbed so often. Teams at our level do not have the depth of talent to be constantly spoon feeding forwards who do little else but sit in the box waiting to knock a ball home. So as I see it Dargo has 2 choices, he ups his work rate and starts creating some of his own chances the way he did last year or he moves on - running crying to the press is not an option and helps nobody - all it sounds like is some kind of spoiled brat having a wee temper tantrum. Dargo, most would agree that the service you receive could be better, but when thats not happening then standing around with your finger up your butt isn't going to change anything....go looking for the ball and chase a bit more, you may just find thats enough to keep you on the pitch AND get you a couple of goals.
  17. :015: - makes it easy for giving Taxi Drivers directions home after a night out though. My old man claims he does it for the grandchildren, but you and I both know better than that Scotty.
  18. The pics aren't that safe as they already made it this far!!!! I'm scared for life.....again.
  19. Think it was RiG who did it last year......but you just can't get the staff these days :014:
  20. One Christmas Clock for Sale....plays annoying fecking carols every hour that get right on your t!ts and can be heard throughout the entire house. Whats the most annoying piece of Christmas Paraphernalia you've happened upon this year?
  21. Welcome to the comedy hour at CaleyThistleOnline.com :017:
  22. If he hasn't, then this kind of thing could tempt others to make it up for him.
  23. Don't think many will disagree with what he has to say, but as he said himself he has not spoken to the Manager about it yet and that should have been the FIRST person he spoke to, not the press. So, although I agree with most of what he says I am disappointed to see him running to the press crying about it the way he has here.
  24. If Brewster had not been a Manager with us and just a player then yes, I could see it being workable that he return, however given the circumstances I think it would likely be disruptive if he was to sign for us. I could be wrong and the only people that can really answer the question are CC and the players.
  25. If you want to re-live that "Cringe" moment when Dods brought down McDonald then Gordon Gillespie (NorthSport) captured the moment on camera and has included it in this weeks selection of Match Pics - Clicky Clicky
