  1. Just spoken again to Waterstones who have confirmed Steve will also be signing copies at the stadium (Kingsmills Suite) tonight at 7.30pm.
  2. Best team I've seen in this league so far has been Ross County, closely followed by QoS...
  3. y'see thats the bit I'm confused at. Does the book not come out in december? I ordered a signed copy, so am I able to pick it up anytime after tommorrow? See here : Join Steve Paterson for the launch of this candid and brutally honest memoir, recounting the heady days of footballing success, twinned with the devastating hubris of his addictive personality. It is a heart-rending and insightful account of one of the most fascinating players and managers in the Scottish game. Steve will be signing copies of Confessions of a Highland Hero in the Kingsmill Suite at Tulloch Caledonian Stadium, Inverness from 7.30pm onwards. To reserve a signed copy please contact Waterstone?s on 01463 233 500. I'm hoping so. I phoned the Waterstones number - they took a note of my number and said they'd call me back.. :023:
  4. Thanks to all who responded to my query at 14.... Looking forward to picking up my signed copy tomorrow, although I've been told it's for my Xmas stocking, and not to be read until the 25th Dec!

    Why do we need a DOF as well as a manager, Craig Levin does it all himself at United as far as I am led to believe, I am fairly sure if we had a manager that didn't also have 2 part time jobs he could quite easily manage to carry out the DOF duties as well Controversial! Are you seriously suggesting there might be a promoted post available for TB if he was to relinquish his two part time jobs?

    Craig Brown should be in a retirement home - preferably of the maximum security variety.
  7. If not us, I'd be happy to see our hysterical rivals get there. It would be interesting to see what they'd use as a stadium if the unthinkable happened.
  8. I met Frank Gilfeather a few months ago when he was having regular meetings with Pele in connection with this book. Frank has "ghost written" quite a few books from various Scots sporting celebrities, but he told me he was really excited about this one as he found Steve to be one of the most interesting and fascinating characters he has ever met. Reading up on Pele on Wikki, I came across this interesting paragraph : In November 2002, Paterson was strongly linked with the vacant manager's job at Dundee United, but he stayed at Caley Thistle for another month. He was offered the manager's position at Aberdeen and became the clubs manager on 11 December 2002. This move was not without controversy, as Paterson and his assistant Duncan Shearer were each supposed to have agreed a five-year contract with Caley Thistle not long before their departure to the Dons This was just before I came to live in Inverness, and I can't remember hearing of any contractual disputes. Did ICT have Pele and Shearer signed on 5 year contracts or not? Did Aberdeen have to pay Caley much in compensation? Were those at the club who handled Niculae's transfer to Dinamo Bucharest, with ICT in 2002? Hope someone can enlighten me. .
  9. No place for Don Cowie? Not even on the bench....
  10. No particular reason! I hope I'm speaking for everyone on this site in wishing you the best of good luck for tomorrow.
  11. :D aye very good Charles. I was gonna enter next year but guess now I'll just need to stick to the odd Karaoke in the Fluke,my hopes of celebrityism dashed forever :D I used to got to the Fluke for a pint.... Same here.... But not on karaoke nights.
  12. Rig : Shouldn't you be preparing for your job interview tomorrow? :D
  13. Have to agree with that. What's making matters worse for me is that there is another club - not a million miles from here, who appear to have taken over our mantle of a Highland side that is on the way up. They are obviously doing something right.... Unfortunately, the same can't be said for those charged with the responsibility of running ICT.
  14. John Robertson About 6 months from now....
  15. It is a poor show.... I don't think there is much garlic spoken around the Motherwell/Hamilton area.
  16. I'm with you on that 100%. Find it rather galling to be honest. He's obviously aware that is what they're putting up on the screen for information. Wonder if he has asked about having his current role displayed instead? He would have decided what info STV display on the screen alongside his name. Does make you wonder which job is more important to him.
  17. I mourn the passing of the days when football fans used to fight with the fans of rival football clubs. B)
  18. Not really, and young girls having kids has only become such a "shocking" subject in fairly recent history. It wasn't that long ago when it was perfectly acceptable (and normal) for teens to be having kids (I know 11 is not a teen)....in fact, it was pretty much expected of them to be popping sprogs as soon as they "became women". I believe in parts of Dingwall some of these old traditions are still maintained.

  20. Were you someone else before you became a renegade, Renegade?
  21. Wimminn can be so fickle.... There were quite a few who used to regularly post stuff worth reading on here, but one by one they seem to disappeared.... FW, Mee, Sophia, Lauraness.... Oh, and Gillian Black.... she's probably on a Jambos website by now.
  22. unkempt beard
  23. So.... What are the facts? Are you suggesting that Mikifitz has jumped to the wrong conclusions and his information is inaccurate?
  24. How do you know? Could it be yours? There is a distinct resemblance.... I know this was a while ago, but what I thing to say! Trying to say I'm out getting 13 year old girls pregnant. If I didn't have a sense of humour I'd be getting you banned for that! How did you manage to dig that up almost 9 months later? I can't even remember posting that but it was obviously in jest. I know you would have been responsible enough to take precautions...
  25. Have faith in the Messiah, Dc.... We're on a roll now. ;)
