  1. again, from the BBC web site Saturday, 8 September, 2001, 16:09 GMT 17:09 UK Inverness CT 5-1 Arbroath Dennis Wyness grabbed a glorious hat-trick as Inverness Caledonian Thistle romped to victory over Arbroath. Wyness opened the scoring, Bobby Mann added the second and Roy McBain got on the scoresheet before the hat-trick man grabbed his second. Steve Mallen got one back for Arbroath before Wyness completed the scoring. It was the first win of the season for Steve Paterson's side. Arbroath have now not won in nine visits to Caledonian Stadium. Influential midfielder Charlie Christie had recovered from injury to start for Caley Thistle. Defence-splitting pass Wyness gave their side a dream start when he opened the scoring from Ross Tokely's through pass in the fifth minute. Mann stretched the lead with a bullet header from Barry Robson's corner on 14 minutes. Wyness was unmarked at the back post when he made it 3-0 from McBain's corner on the hour. McBain put the home side further ahead midway through the second half when he raced onto a defence-splitting pass from Russell Duncan. Mallan reduced the arrears from a David McInally corner two minutes from time. But Wyness completed the rout when he connected with Martin Bavidge's cross on the stroke of full time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Inverness CT: Walker, McCaffray, Mann, McBain, Tokely, Duncan, Christie, Robson, Bavidge, Wyness, Ritchie.

  2. This was some game. from BBC web site. Saturday, 2 December, 2000, 18:52 GMT Inverness CT 7-3 Ayr United Dennis Wyness grabbed a glorious hat-trick as Caley Thistle blitzed the visitors in a magnificent victory. Thistle took the lead in the eighth minute when Mike Teasdale converted a low cross from Richard Hastings. But the visitors hit back, taking a surprise lead with strikes from Eddie Annand and a solo effort from Hugh Robertson in the space of two minutes. Paul Sheerin equalised from the penalty spot after Wyness was tripped by Steven Boyack and Wyness sent the home team into the lead just before the interval. Hat-trick Glynn Hurst put Ayr back on level terms with a low drive in 48 minutes, but from then on Thistle dominated proceedings. David Bagan put the home side 4-3 up on the hour and he extended the gap with a 20-yard rocket 15 minutes later. Wyness netted Thistle's sixth from Davide Xausa's cross in the 79th minute and he completed his hat-trick shortly after. Ayr's misery was complete when Craig McEwan was ordered off eight minutes before the end. Inverness CT: Calder, Teasdale, McCaffrey, Mann, Hastings, Bagan, Sheerin, Christie, McBain, Wyness, Bavidge.

  3. I thought this was the case, that Wyness and Ritchie scored hat-tricks in the same game. from the BBC web site:- Saturday, 19 October, 2002, Alloa 0-6 Inverness CT Hat-tricks from Dennis Wyness and Paul Ritchie destroyed Alloa as Inverness Caledonian Thistle won a very one-sided affair at Recreation Park. After six minutes, Wyness grabbed his first goal from close range, followed by a second from 18 yards, capitalising on a slip by goalkeeper James Evans. When Wyness slotted in his third goal after 21 minutes from just outside the area, Alloa knew they were in deep trouble. The pressure continued and with 27 minutes gone, Ritchie cracked in the fourth goal, high into the net from 22 yards. Caley continued strongly in the second half with Ritchie adding the fifth goal after 71 minutes before completing the rout with the sixth, and his third, with 11 minutes left. Alloa: James Evans, Valentine, Seaton, Watson, Thomson, Christie, MacDonald, Derek Ferguson, Hamilton, Hutchison, Stevenson. Subs: Knox, Walker, Gillan, Gareth Evans, Hogarth. Inverness CT: Brown, Tokely, Golabek, Mann, Munro, McBain, Duncan, Wyness, Ritchie, Hart, Robson. Subs: Christie, McCaffray, Low, Keogh, Ridgers. Referee: C Thompson and his four goal game DENNIS WYNESS saw Caley Thistle to a 5-2 First Division home win over Raith Rovers last night. The striker grabbed a first-half hat-trick, as well as a goal in the 71st minute. Thistle took the lead after six minutes when Raith keeper Simon Miotto panicked and handed Wyness a simple finish. Caley went 2-0 up when Wyness flicked the ball home and t h e striker completed his hat-trick with a volley. After the break, Scott Crabbe pulled one back for Raith but Wyness restored his side's advantage by grabbing his fourth.
  4. Campbelltown, Scotland. Everything was grey, the buildings, the sky, the people....................... ..............mind you, I think the place was shut when we arrived. Depressing place.
  5. If you have not seen him live yet, go along and I think you will enjoy. He's not quite Neil Young yet, but has a great voice and a great backing band. I've got mine, (ticketmaster) ?17.50, good price, don't miss out.
  6. Usage Note: The idiomatic phrase cannot but has sometimes been criticized as a double negative, perhaps because it has been confused with can but. The but of cannot but, however, means "except," as it does in phrases such as no one but, while the but of can but has the sense only, as it does in the sentence We had but a single bullet left. Both cannot but and can but are established as standard expressions. ? The construction cannot help is used with a present participle to roughly the same effect as cannot but in a sentence such as We cannot help admiring his courage. This construction usually implies that a person is unable to affect an outcome normally under his or her control. Thus, saying We could not help laughing at such a remark would imply that one could not suppress one's laughter. ? The construction cannot help but probably arose as a blend of cannot help and cannot but; it has the meaning of the first and the syntax of the second: We cannot help but admire his courage. The construction has sometimes been criticized as a redundancy, but it has been around for more than a century and appears in the writing of many distinguished authors. ? The expression cannot (or can't) seem to has occasionally been criticized as illogical, and so it is. Brian can't seem to get angry does not mean "Brian is incapable of appearing to get angry," as its syntax would seem to dictate; rather, it means "Brian appears to be unable to get angry." But the idiom serves a useful purpose, since the syntax of English does not allow a logical equivalent like Brian seems to cannot get angry; and the cannot seem to construction is so widely used that it would be pedantic to object to it.
  7. County fans raving about the goal......."best I have seen in 35 years at football" etc
  8. Just visited the Jailend and it seems that they are getting too much hassle to continue, have a wee read, and wipe the tears away. pass me the handkies
  9. Apparently Brewsters goal was a cracker................... ................But Brewster scored in injury time with a superb volley from 25 yards out. County 2-1 Pars Bayne scored for Pars.
  10. A muslim, why would he want these shirts....................
  11. The Albatross was tiring

    And the cook was in a stew

    The filthy little cabin boy

    Was whizzing in my shoe

    The Captain's wife was aging

    And the first mate heard her scream

    When Tommy slipped tabasco in the

    Captain's vaseline

  12. No kidding, I tell ya................. Go on yersel Alex
  13. I didn't think we looked like Brazil at all, and it was certainly better than shopping.
  14. You may or may not have spotted this on the news, but here is the link to the BBC news site Hearts player assaulted Footballer charged over assault Hibernian footballer Darren McCormack has been charged over an alleged assault on Hearts striker Calum Elliot. Mind you, having seen a video of him dancing...............
  15. Woohooo Got all my tickets now, ready for the Messiah.
  16. It's all in this thread Kyle.
  17. Check the Lionel red card thread and try and work it out. It may be the next SPL game????
  18. Dude, the wee clip does not suggest Rooney was playing anyone onside. Check the BBC online video again and tell me how you come to that conclusion. He appears to me to be at least one metre offside.
  19. I fail to see how the goal should have stood. He was all alone, stuck out like a sore thumb and the lineman missed it, unbelievable. We are not talking about our individual performaces here, but the officials who changed the shape of the game. We still played poorly and may well have still lost, but the game hinged on that decision, lets hope it is not relegation that hinges on it as well. Refereeing decisions like this should be highlighted to the refereeing officialdome and wages docked. These are not whinges, but fact, at least I believe it to be fact, I have not seen an in line view of the incident yet, but at the game he looked offside, and on BBC online there is no hope in hell that he was onside when the ball was kicked.
  20. Next season, clean slate, new players, ie Butchers team, thats when to judge him. I do believe we have just enough in the tank to keep us up, but the old regime should have been shown the door earlier to give Butcher more time to craft something.

    I agree to an extent that Lionel has not hit the high spots of his first few games, but we as fans have put him in the spotlight, and any error he makes is being highlighted, whereas we are ignoring others who are not being scrutinised to the same extent. For instance, I see little criticism of Ryan Esson, but he has been guilty of greater boobs than Lionel. Dougie Imrie, idolised by the sesh boys has not been productive of late, and the other idol, Rooney has failed in front of goals. Contrast that with the attention given in detail to Barrowman then it would appear that some factions of our support have their own heroes and nothing will change their mind, as is their right of course. Maybe Mr Butcher needs some criticism, after all he is playing these guys, or not, as the case might be.
