Losing faith in Butcher
I am the opposite to that then. His PR and spin is second to none. His managerial qualities are certainly a subject of much discussion, but like most, I am prepared for the longer haul. His previous managerial record is also not fantastic, but there were underlying problems with some of his appointments. For instance, at Sydney, there was a lot of prominent people who did not want Butcher on the payroll. He never got the help he needed and was basically hounded out.

Losing faith in Butcher
OK then little boy, is that better. You have said you don't like Mr Butcher as a man. Do you know him? That is not a very clever statement and a personal attack on a person. What is your personal gripe with Terry Butcher. If you don't know him personally, then don't judge his personal attributes.

I don't care either. Is there something in the water up in Dornoch.

Losing faith in Butcher
I don't think he likes you as a boy Dornoch Caley.

Message to the Grant Munro haters
Steady on DC. I doubt anybody hates Granty. His captaincy has been called into question but nobody has doubted his contribution to the cause. It was fair comment before when some challenged if he did not have the responsibility of the captains armband he may be more effective. I had him down for MoM in three games this season already. Good to see he took responsibility and finished the tie off.

Partick -V- ICT : Matchday Thread
Ex-County player Ian Maxwell seems to be mopping up everything at the back. We are under pressure now, we really need to get the midfield going again.

That goal has been coming for the last fifteen minutes.

Aye, it's time we started to impose ourselves on this game again. Jonny Hayes is quiet this half.

Cox into the box :D And something you don't often hear in the same sentence, especially last week.......caley thistle & workrate in the same sentence.

Partick -V- ICT : Matchday Thread
I agree about Eagle. For me he is not as direct as Hayes but as I said elsewhere he is not afraid to go backwards to go forward. He is a busy player, lightweight but busy. I am not sure if he is any better than Zander was, but they are similar types of player. He does track back and gets in about the opposition ankles. Sounds like a good first half from us. Hope we can consolidate and accelerate away in the second half. I look for more from Hayes, get skinning yer man and set up the goals please.

Sounds like shades of the Dundee game when we were looking like scoring every time we went forward in the first half. What a difference a week makes.

"a hundred or so Caley Thistle fans have made the trip down" The rest are still in the pub. ooooh, Butch not best pleased with some people.........media stuff to do with Scotland I believe.

I agree chris, the engine room last week was non existant and was probably the main reason for our demise last week, despite the fact that Lionel had a shocker, he just seems to stand out more and gets noticed easily. Barrowman on the bench as well, lets hope he can regain full fitness and help out the team.

Shame, maybe the beginning of the end for Lionel.

Roll call for Partick
It's on radio scotland I believe...........give me a minute Charles Bannerman posted this yesterday Apologies if this has emerged elsewhere in the reams which have been written about this game which I have not read, but Sportsound will carry full match commentary from tomorrow's cup tie. Commentary will be by Bill Leckie and Des McKeown will be summarising. It is accessible on 810 Medium Wave all afternoon and also on the Radio nan Gaidheal frequency (103.5-105FM) pre match and from 3:30. This is because R nan G transmit a Gaelic Service from 3-330. I'm not sure what the arrangements are for the Diasporate on the internet but I'm sure Scotty will know and could post these when he wakes up.

All said and done, I only saw the last 40 minutes, but well done Scotland and two cracking goals with Faddies a treat to watch.

Dale Gillespie, Butchered
erm......erm.........maybe somebody did.

Dale Gillespie, Butchered
I am not being nasty here...................but maybe, just maybe, no matter how much most of us would have liked Dale to have stayed and become a Caley Thistle legend, is it possible that he was not going to reach the standard required............ ..............life can be tough at times, but I am sure Dale will come back a better player for this. He scored one of the best goals I have ever witnessed at Forres against Elgin to win the NoS cup (i think) a couple of years ago..........superb first time volley into the top corner from 25 yards, what a stunning goal.

Managerial Stats
They did not all manage against the same standard of opposition, therefore it's not a level playing field. Pele does stand out as the main man, but he never managed in the SPL. Who knows, he may have been successful, but I doubt his stats would have looked quite so impressive. We all enjoyed the Pele era, but that is history. It's like mentioning that England won the world cup in 1966.

I suppose it is not off topic, and thats a big BOOOO for a young loon, it sums up the feelings of some of the fans though.

5th stand, don't take words out of context. I am fully aware that they mean the same, the comment was aimed at the words before the comma, we are playing pish just now. Which implied we are not playing well. But, the week before we played pretty good in the city of discovery. Nobody is asking anyone to go along, either good or bad football being played. I'm afraid you pay your money you take yer chance. However, as a season ticket holder I will be attending as many games as I can to support the team, good or bad, it might not always best please me, but thats why we have a forum, to discuss the good and the bad. If booing is your thing, best to direct it towards the management and not individuals. Would it be ok for the players to start booing sections of the home crowd, lets say the young guys at the rear of section G, the self proclaimed hard core of ICT fans, the ones who only do good and start all the songs ever sung at Inverness. georgeios.........Scotty was a lot closer than Canada for the County game..............
