Yes, the organisers checked with yer captain to see when you were back on the high seas :blah01: Good one getting Liverpool up, hope they can field a reasonably strong team and we don't give them much of a doing. Now lets see if we can make anyone else miss this one..........maybe Tug will be away as well.

.....and car park attendant, more commonly known as chief executive. Only three people know exactly what was said and how it was said. If as TCJ states is a true reflection of events then it has been handled poorly by Mr Smith and maybe the trust/supporters club should be involved to resolve this issue. If on the other hand, Mr Smith has been made out to be the villain of the peace, be very careful how you go about this. I am not in favour of the Brewster out flags either, but it is only an opinion and I believe the club were wrong to remove it. I also think Brewster should be given a bit of leeway on this and next season will be his judgement day.

Unfortunately not, I can't make it as my training regime dictates that I must continue with my marathon schedule.

I heard Rory was going round to shout abuse at rosscoe :023:

Get yer anorak Scotty...........................that is tremendous stats. What a strike rate Ian lob Stewart had, top notch striking albeit in the lower divisions.

Weed/Bob, I have sent a PM if nobody takes up the offer I could nip over the bridge at short notice with my son.

I will be there, with Zogg and Mrs m4tj and maybe even a new mower........it's a long story. No it's simple to find if travelling by car or bus or bike or scooter or walking. Just off JCN 5 or 6 of the M9 see here

He has been great for us this season and his goals from midfield have been very welcome. Took his goal very well on Saturday but I thought he drifted out of the game in the middle period, but what do I know, I'm just a fan and his controlled volley, not for the first time this season, nestled in the net brilliantly. MoM, doubt it, Barry was looking much more likely.

Has anyone seen my twin Big Stu?

Too many Liverpool fans on this site pretending to be ICT fans till they die etc. Glory hunting will get you everywhere.

Hmmnn, I pressed the wrong button methinks. I hate Celtic.

I thought I had seen his name connected to one of the old firm before and the article on Wikipedie confirms this. **Iain Vigurs (born 7 May 1988 in Aberdeen) is a Scottish footballer currently playing for Scottish Premier League side Inverness Caledonian Thistle. Before signing for ICT he played for Elgin City in the Third Division, playing over 20 times after making his debut aged 15. Before signing for Elgin he played in the youth teams of Celtic. He has also represented Scotland at under-19 level.**

I'll give you ten pounds if you don't sing. :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

I'm sorry IHE, but overuse of the rotflmao smiley has led to other posters being unable to access and use it. Please be kind and considerate when using these smileys as they are for everyones use and a refusal often offends. This also applies to Johnboy, you have used your quota of :024: and these will now be withdrawn from your profile. :rotflmao: :029: :029: :029:

Zibi showed yesterday that he has good qualities and put in an excellent display. Mike could learn from him as he delivered great throw out time after time to allow us to hit quickly on the counter. His handling at crosses was flawless and in fact everything he did yesterday was first class. Well done Zibi :clapping03:

Nobody likes the long ball, except rugby players. Re the atmosphere, did you really expect anything else on a sunny Easter afternoon, the game was little more than a training excercise with Gretna fulfilling their SPL obligations before disappearing down the chute. Not much to play for and trying out a few players, these games are now preparation for next season. **blah blah ??? for evey position gained and all that***

East win for ICT eventually. Credit to Gretna in the first half as they tried to play football and took the game to us at times. We scored early and were cruising at 2-0, when Gretna delivered a great ball into the box and the big lad nodded it past Zibi, no fault of the keeper, decent ball, decent touch with the head, decent goal. Second half we pretty much totally dominated and the more the game went on, the more likely we were to score, ripping them open with swift counter attacks against a tiring Gretna defence. Vigurs goal was the pick of the bunch for me. Intricate passing and movement on the left touchline led to the Gretna defenders being led a merry dance and when the ball eventually was crossed into the box Vigurs was on hand to slam a ferocious volley past a luckless Fleming from twelve yards maybe. Well done Ian, great way to score your first SPL goal. Bazza's goal was also a cracker, cutting inside, looking up, and from twenty yards picked his spot and delivered a hammer blow past the keepers right hand, great goal. Rory did well to turn the rebound into the goal and Imrie finished off a lighting break by Cowie, great start for us. Cowie also finished well with a controlled volley from a left wing cross and Rossco was well chuffed to score with a header. We looked like scoring every time we ventured forward as the game went on and the scoreline was no surprise, but you have to be in it to win it as they say, and we eventually did that in style. Quiet day at the office for Marius, and he never troubled the scorers, he maybe should have bagged a brace. Zibi did well and his distribution was first class as mentioned before. Bayne did well in the short time he was on, hassling and stealing the ball off the tiring Gretna defenders and winning balls in the air. MoM.......Wilson Tokely or Imrie, who is very raw, but there is plenty of scope for him to blossom in the SPL.

This is not a dig..........but Marius was poor yesterday, probably our worst player, saving himself for better things maybe.

:029: It's not a friendly. It's a Testimonial game, something completely different.

It's a poor mans Champion League. Pointless sort of competition when they allow some of the teams knocked out of the CL to enter this competition...............but teams knocked out in the later stages of the CL can't qualify and end up with nothing.......Liverpool, Barcelona. It's not a moan Chris, it's an observation, these teams have less quality than ones who can't now win a European trophy this year.

maybe he is told to drop back and help the defence :017:

are you being serious :010:

read between the lines dog :014: We are saying the same thing here. You may laugh...........but I lost my first post and had to re-type it. I originally had a sentence in it describing them playing similar to ICT. The result was obviously the important thing. The aspect of Rangers game I did highlight was the fact that their defence played well.....very well, apart from the distribution from the back which would have done our defenders proud. anti-football def a method of play by teams with inadequacies in the finer details of the beautiful game, using spoiling tactics and defending in depth, but having the same result as playing a blinder! I totally agree about some of ICT's greatest results. Backs to the wall stuff and hitting on the break, we love it. I am not condoning Rangers for the way they set out their stall, it is the way to go, the down side of this is ugly football. It appeared to me that Rangers were happy to take their chances on penalties, and that decision has been proved correct. My biggest issue with your post is the spelling of defense (US spelling??).......or is it defence. Definitely defence :003:

:015: :015: Absolutey, a match for anyone, he would light up the game.
