Saturday's 1st half was a bad day at the office for the entire team. The points you make(highlighted)are probably valid.... At least in the 2nd half there were plenty of encouraging signs - for instance, Rooney came close to scoring on two occasions, and Foran's perfectly weighted through ball set up Hayes perfectly for the equaliser. I was impressed with that - he knew he was going to take a sore one from their keeper but he made sure he got the final touch.

I've noticed on several occasions, when TB is screaming instructions (for want of a better word) to the players, Russel Duncan is one of the few who is not afraid to yell back at him. What TB should bear in mind is that we only began to string a run of good results together in the second half of last season when RD was consistently in the starting line up.

Very good......An excellent preview. Writing worth reading. Wish there was some way of giving it green dots.

Just put the money in an envelope and leave it at the stadium for Roy... Or a blank cheque.....

For anyone who didn't see the interview with David Tanner on Sky Sports last night : Craig Levein I was quite pleased when he became Scotland boss, but he's gone way down in my estimation now. Wtf was wrong with Tanner asking to comment on the different approaches he adopted for the last two games? He seems to have forgotten that Sky TV are just about paying his wages at the end of the day.

Craig Levein won't have won many friends with that pathetic post match interview.

Your contrariness p1$$es me off. We were outplayed, outclassed and deservedly beaten by a bunch of Eskimos last night. We should surely be asking ourselves why countries like that have come on leaps and bounds over the past ten years, while we have gone steadily backwards.

You would have to say Iceland's international future prospects - at all levels - look a whole lot better than Scotland's. That under 21 side would have beaten our full side.

Quite right, Georgeios.... diesels are cheaper to run. :hahaha:

and Oh yeah, right.... I see what you mean.... It's all endemic now anyway, as Del Boy would say.

Quite a few have mentioned our first ever win against Aberdeen (2-0 at Pittodrie) a couple of seasons ago. Strange that no one's mentioned the scorer of both goals on that that historic day! For me, all our wins against the OF have been very, very special.

So what would you do with the ?110.5 million you would have left over?

It was the Rangers "backs to the wall" tactic that we saw against Man U a couple of weeks ago. I thought it almost came off for Levein - a draw would have been a great result. It will be completely different against Spain....I'll stick my neck out now and forecast a win for Scotland - at worst a draw.

Hayes, when he's on form and in the mood....

I'd help my wife to pay off some of her outstanding credit card debt.....

I believe his wife is called Annie.

So samoakly signed up to this forum today, just to give us this piece of old "news", which isn't even accurate! Do you win a prize if you can guess who samoakly is?

Haven't most of these fun loving posters been banned?

You'd get me drunk then take advantage of me. And I'd hate to get Aids again.....

Not half as dodgy as a wee room in Killie... :aghast:

Jeeeezus.... Count me out!

H/Dee... You have my sincere and heartfelt condolences regarding the recent turn of events in the City of Discovery - which is of course, just across the firth from fabulous Fife. When I heard what was happening there, I very nearly ran round to your place with that bottle of 10yo Glenfarclas - in fact the only thing that stopped me doing that was the fact that I drunk it all within 24 hours of you giving it to me. I sincerely hope that DFC survive this crisis - and I'm sure they will in some shape or form, but please remember if the worst came to the worst (and I'm sure you already know this) you'd be made more than welcome to sit amongst the ICT support at TCS. They eventually (well some of them) accepted me as a supporter after I handed over my hard-earned for a season ticket here. Supporting this club certainly has its ups and downs, but as long as I live in this city, I will continue to support this club. Nothing makes me more angry than the sight of a bus-load decked out in green or blue leaving here en-route to Glasgow. Good luck, and best regards, Jb

Coming from Thurso must also make life difficult for Mahonio. Many years ago I had my very first ever sexual experience in Thurso - an unforgettable moment. Okay, I was on my own at the time but it was still a very special occasion.

I'm not sure how much Darren was involved with the creation of the new Sports Bar - but assuming he was, I would like to thank him for that first class facility, and would suggest he is leaving TCS in a much better state and heart, than it was in when he took over from Mike Smith. Good luck and best wishes for the future.
