AYES! He is one of our hardest working and most loyal players. If Butcher can find 2 better centre backs then great but surely he's worth keeping at least as 3rd choice.

LINK: Brilliant!

Otherwise you could wait til next year and get the r*ss c*nty 2nd division play off runners up mug?

The creation a pyramid structure in Scottish football -------------------- AYE Permitted, one-off, short-term opt-outs from the SPL's stadia criteria -------------------------- WHY A merging of the SPL with the SFL by inviting all 30 SLF member clubs to join a 42-club league under one umbrella banner ----------------- AYE The creation of a 10-team SPL league, with a 12-team Championship and two lower divisions ----------------------- NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY! The creation of an extra relegation place in the SPL through play-offs between the top two divisions ------------------------- 2UP 2DOWN 16TEAM TOP FLIGHT A redistribution of money away from the top two positions in the league and reallocating it to the other eight clubs ----------------- TO THE OTHER 14 CLUBS AYE An obligation on all Premier League and Championship clubs to become part of the SFA Youth Initiative ---------------------- AYE An earlier start to the season and a return of the winter shutdown ------------------- PROBABLY AYE MOST OF THESE THINGS WOULD BE GOOD FOR THE GAME IF NOT FOR THE RIDICULOUS 10/12 IDEA WOULD IT NAY?

cheers for the link though beastie, horrible commentary eh? Bit of a disappointing performance but they did a good job of shutting us out when we did get up the pitch.

w@nk

Cheers Beastie!

Nice one radio back on! Don't do the f***b**k so no link for me!

AAAH lost the commentary! Whats that link???

Got to be Esson. Tuffey is capable of pulling off some great saves, he did against Scotland but he still let in 3. Esson is more consistent and we may be faced with plenty of shots on goal so need to be able to deal with them all. Tuffey's defo one for the future. ESSON v ceptic.

It is a wonder why Duncan doesn't get his game all the time. But we are limited when it comes to wide players in the midfield so Terry has been forced to play players out of position which hasn't always worked. As for the 4 centre backs, i dunno who else could play full back. I can understand him playing Tokely at RB cos he was for years our 1st choice RB but sounds like he's not up to it anymore, Granty worked hard at left back on saturday and and i doubt Hogg or Innes would be as effective in that position though maybe Duff could have done the job at LB with Granty instead of Innes at centre back.

As said already, we don't have many options for some of the positions that need filled due to injuries. Having Hayes out has hurt as badly as far as creativity is concerned but credit to Butcher for managing to bring in a player to the standard of Doran. Width is definitely something we lack, we have plenty players that can cover the wide roles - Foran, Ross, Blumenstein but i don't think that any of them are as effective out wide as they are in the centre (infact i dunno if blumenstein is effective in any position). So we've had the problem of playing with an injury hit squad and an imbalance of cover for certain positions and this has left us playing very badly. Butcher did an amazing job last season with mostly this squad. The last thing you would do after that run would be having a clear out, so we have been left with plenty of players that helped bring us success though aren't up to spl top 6 standard. I think Butcher will have a busy summer getting rid of players that are past it to free up wages for hopefully some good new faces though he's always gonna struggle to bring in the quality we all want to take us further. On top of that he'll be trying to hang on to our best players. Terry and Mo are definitely capable of taking us further and bringing us more success, its always going to be a struggle for anyone with our resources but he has the contacts and when we have the right players fit we play good, winning, attractive football with a decent balance of attack AND defence. And like i said with a wee clear out and some new faces (definitely a couple of natural wingers) we will be capable of playing our best most weeks.

Cheers min. Thats me plus 1 goin too.

Anybody know if you can pay at the gate or do you need tickets first???????????????????

I'll greet yous all from my flat on albion road by saying, 'welcome to paradise' And lets hope that basket case riordan gets sent off.

Thank you Alex! Glad you enjoyed it. The inspiral carpets did it for the 8.15 to manchester with one of their songs back in the day i remember. Plenty of room to name all the players in the verse. Suggestions???????????

I agree with lots of folk here. That question is a tuffey! I would say Esson Nah Tuffey Esson Tuffey Esson........................

Aye sorry i'm just taking an opportunity to promote my band! HAHA! Still think it's a good suggestion though!

I can't believe nobody suggested this! Considering it's a good pounding, uptempo tune written and performed by a lad from Inverness and a huge Caley Thistle supporter! (This is only the early demo version but a proper finished one on it's way.)

He can score goals.........

Good stuff, hopefully another effective irish winger.

Here's a striker that's just been released, dunno if we can afford his wages so he'll need to take a drop and he is a bit of a controversial character but you can't fault his goal scoring record. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/9373280.stm

Although i don't agree with what Terry said about 'if it ain't broke', surely what we've got is much better than what that douchebag doncaster is proposing so fair point Tel. Who employed this idiot to be in charge of the spl?! I would like to think that the vote will go against his proposals anyway but wether a new plan is written up or not the priority has to be to have somebody who cares about the future of the Scottish game to be running our leagues. DONCASTER CAN AWAY AND SH1TE.

County beaten 4-3 on penalties!
