Oh yeah, I forgot about the talk that he/she may have been Bobby Mann's mother.

What cup is that? The Scottish Cup?

Okay you've highlighted part of my post and put a smiley next to it and bolded up part of someone elses. Care to say why? You're not another one of those Butcher-is-amazing-and-the-greatest-thing-since-Jesus-and-anyone-who-disagrees-is-a-Nazi-loving-idiot sort of person are you?

IIRC Sophia stopped posting on here, after someone cottoned onto the fact that "she" was actually a bloke.

According to here, he was called Vito Mannone. ICT were quite keen for him but Wenger refused due to the fact he wouldn't be guaranteed first team football ever week (Fraser had just become first choice at that time). The deal fell through so ICT went for then Clach and former ICT sub keeper Ally Ridgers.

I haven't read it all the through yet, but I'm enjoying it. Very easy to read, and if anyone ever read Midge Ure's book, it's written in a similar style to that. One thing I have learned about Pele that I didn't know before is that I had no idea he was so religious.

Whatever happened to Arab4Ever?

Of that lot I'd say: As you can see, there's no-one on that list who really stands out as an out and out good choice.

Levein would be an absolute fool to leave Dundee United for the Scotland job just now,

Some of the best ICT signings were signed by Robbo in the pre-season before the start of ICT's first SPL season. Ian Black, Juanjo, Darren Dods, Graham Bayne to name but a few.

Have a look at the Scotland 1990s teams under Brown and compare that to the teams from the years of Vogts to the present day. One lot is far superior to the other.

Another sacking for Butcher's record. That's five for him now!

Sadly, aye.

Yes, two per game I believe. In the first home game of the season, Ayr had Robbie Winters as a trialist playing for them.

Ralph Milne posted last week just after the County game. Have a guess what it was about....that's right his great love of Brewster. Another one is CBsRednBlueArmy, another disappeared Brewster lover. What a bright spark he/she was.

Sandy Cromarty doesn't seem to be on this site anymore.

They were called Clermont or something.

To me this says it all. In 20 years time, can you see John Terry or someone along those lines as manager of a wee team like this? The fact that Butcher is such a high profile football figure, and is managing a small team like this, says a lot about his management skills IMO.

What about me? I was doing quite well on my Football Manager demo, playing an attacking diamond midfielded 4-4-2.

I wasn't there, I had to witness another world class display by ICT at Fortress Tulloch. Plus that and the fact that I've never been to a rugby match in my life.

Don't worry, I doubt you'll have to wait long. And I was just looking up Butcher's record at Brentford - 22%. Oh dear...

I thought Alan Morgan was quite good actually.

Am I not right in saying though, that both the first half of last season and the season before, many people were upset due to the poor defending, Richard Hastings was puting in in that area?

Oops, I managed to erase from my mind Berti leading us to a famous 1-1 draw v NZ at Tynecastle in 2003. Scotland team included Brian Kerr and other superstars like Paul Devlin, Maurice Ross and Andy Gray. Given Scotland's performance last night and New Zealand's I think NZ are far the better side nowadays. If they played each other now I think NZ would run out winners by two or three goals. In fact looking at the standard of the Scottish football team I think they would struggle to qualify from the Oceania Region if they did play down here. I think Fiji, New Caledonia and Vanuatu would draw with Scotland comfortably and maybe even beat them. I think Scottish International football died a death last night. The death of interest from the vast majority of Scots. Maybe it's time to start looking to them for players.

Maybe if you actually take in to context what I said and they way I said it. I was saying that Butcher has now said two or three times he's going to do this, that and the other, and then never does it. Understand it now? ANd on the otherpoit, I was at the game I was at, whether that's the same one you thought you were at is another thing altogether, but two "big wins", oh yes that's right, the wins against the football juggernauts that are Airdrie United and Greenock Morton. Two teams that no doubt scare the living daylights out of the likes of Real Madrid and Inter Milan!
