anyone heard how he is feeling about going to Halkirk as Captain

Ooh so many pesimists. We will pick up, our luck must change, and at the moment the injuries are not long long term like Hamilton suffered last season. However one nagging doubt is the refs, have they been instructed to give us bad decisions because ICT stood up to the Old firm and the SFA over the 10 ten SPL !!!! It appears they are following instructions so far, but will be really concerned if the Arabs start getting the same treatment. Saw Toks sending off now. One of the best saving tackles you will see, should have been overturned without question. SFA out to get Tel for being outspoken?

He is very direct, and has a rasping shot on him. Think he would benefit greatly from a run in the team, when he starts, and none of this 5-10 minutes at the end of games. He must be one of our most used subs since we joined the leagues, yet has had little playing time to show for it. His time will come, just like Rooneys did

Had been at ICT youth teams for 10 years. Striker, top scorer each year, coaches player of the year with 19 goals in 20 games at under 17 level. Got a real bad injury couple of games before the end of that season. Still given a contract for the u19s but missed pre season and only started about 5 or 6 games last season, scoring just one goal, but a few assists. Lost his confidence and was released in May. Very natural technical ability, and good finisher. Why?

i am on holiday in Greenland and the Danish TV2 station said that Rangers were very fortunate to get a penalty, although they did not show the penalty claim, they had a picture of us playing rangers in our old strip, the Flybe.com one from a couple of years ago

might just kick start our season, deflection deflection deflection. I would take three deflections and an own goal next week thank you very much. Better than a hattrick of the woodwork

Heard there is a new panto starting down in Glasgow. Craig Whyte and the seven offers!

One big positive, I can see us improving our ranking, so we move up the pots next time. Lets just strart making progress, and if we are close with a few games to go I'll maybe start believing

Bajram Fetei qualifies to play for Denmark, although he was born and displaced from Macedonia, formerly known as Yugoslavia.

Dunfermline and St Mirren will probably be the bookies favourites for the panic button this season, with ICT always amongst the names expected to struggle. Hibs and Dons cant be as bad this year, Killie wont be as good. At this early stage, do you think anyone will really struggle this year. So who are your tip for the drop, and who would you prefer to struggle badly?

everyone wants a semi final at hampden. been there twice, so i want the final this time. dont mind where we finish in the league, as long as we dont have a long long run without wins, cant see any uncomfortable moments. a safe 7th or 8th for me.

ideas above his station, was a good squad player but team wasnt going to be built around him.

Off the cuff here, but why not red and black hoops? Seem to recall QPR had this I think, and it looked quite smart

Two ways of looking at this, what if Barca phone Dundee Utd, Aberdeen and us for a tour of Scotland. Would we turn them down? I dont think so. Also if they go away seeeking cash and do two games in 3 days, they increase the chances of injury and stupid suspensions, tiring players out quick etc. Its only annoying because they can attract big tournaments. Because we are starting so early next season, we will be way ahead of the big Englandshire teams, which will possibly rule a few of them out of coming north for their preseason

I dont like the old firm. I didnt like Graeme Souness because he was a vicious ned with a suntan. I dont like Neil Lennon because he is a cheating ned without a suntan. Whats the difference. Say one of those and people tend to agree, say the other and you are a sectarian bigot. I liked Martin O Neill, and I liked Walter Smith, but they both comanded respect, even if they showed their stirring passion for their chosen team. My parentage is one half Western Isles protestant, the other half Irish Catholic, which has left me with just a moral compass, which is very very rarely wrong. The first two named would argue with their shadow, and aquired very little respect from their opponents, and wrong adoration from their followers. What is worrying is that when either half of the old firm have such a strong character in charge, they bring such a negativety to the table in some ways. However, Souness blew away the protestant only bile that reeked from the blue side and outed many radicals, which was a positive that they have thankfully ( as a team eradicated, but not clearly as the fans culture ). Maybe this is the point where Neil Lennon outs the fans culture, so it does become a socially unacceptable disease to despize because of religion in Scotland. People are prepared to grass up drink drivers these days, and it is now looked upon as being a shamefull thing. Hopefully we are at the tip of the iceberg regarding Rangers/Celtics and apparently the rest of Scotlands shame in religion. Although he is a difficult to like character, Neil Lennon, we may look back in 20 years time and see this as the beginning of the end of this rotten corpse that is sectarianism. But I fear it is just going to open up old wounds. The oh so brilliant best fans in the world were so clearly chanting IRA tunes at the Hearts game the other week. Hopefully we dont take that dark dark road again, because it spoils it for the rest of us. Start by banning the Union Jack and the Tri-colour at games. They are Scottish teams playing in the Scottish league.

Gary O Conner done for drugs aswell.

i think we all know that is the thing the players want at the club............a better atmosphere. All for it and turn the volume up please.

Terry has said that although they are all coming up from english clubs, they are not all Englishmen. Daniel Stratford wont be amongst them as he has just been released by Hereford. Players from all 4 leagues, so I presume the premiership players will be very young, and the others to be journeymen

This season has said more about Scottish society than any other. A ref lies about a correct decision and all hell breaks lose. Accussations of bias, strikes, bullets, sendings off, penalties, letter bombs, anonimous statements, threats, more bombs, slagging off other teams, and Ive probably forgotten stuff. Everyone, and I include myself, thinks its down to delluded Rangers fan/s regards the blame and finger pointing etc. Cup final 25,000 Rangers fans really belt out a sectarian chant when they are beating Celtic in extra time. In many ways not a suprise, and I dont think that was a celebration, more a release of tension at Neil Lennon and Celtic but all wrong Our 2nd and 3rd goals against Celtic recently were certainly greeted to a much louder volume than usual. But tonight, when one of the worst incidents to have happened in Scottish football for years is met with a wall of cheering from Hearts fans, it tells you something. A feeling of absolute hatred has returned to the Scottish game, but unfortunately its not derby rivalry, it seems to be all teams absolutely hate Celtic now. All the good they had done over many years seems to be almost destroyed in one season. It cannot go on, or someone is going to be really hurt. Neil Lennon did his usual after the final whistle, going onto the field to congratulate his players, and Hearts season ticket holders in the main stand are going mental asking police to get him off the pitch. We have come so far since the dark days....

Rangers or Celtic? Who do you think will be crowned on Sunday. Celtic have the better team to watch, but they also have a fair few divers - which I hate. Rangers have scored more goals - but they have Kyle Lafferty - who cant stay on his feet. Celtic are more exciting to watch as a neutral, Rangers grind teams down and are more of a team! Celtic have peed almost everyone off with their conspiracy theories, Rangers have kept reasonable quiet - the actions of a guilty party? When it comes down to it I dont really care, but i prefer the dignity one manager has shown, whilst the other has been a disgrace and a loose cannon at times. However I think that Mr Smith will not be able to bite his lip any longer if his team wins the title, and will depart Castle Greyskull with a reflectional rant at the attitute of John Reid and those below him, just to prime things for next season. Someone said to me today that Celtic had broken a world record this season, for national top flight league games. Seemingly they have had more penalties this season , than anyone else in a top league - Does anyone know if that is true or not, Manchester City were the team removed from that proud record.

Post #22 Im glad my eyesight and my memory didnt let me down. I can confirm that this is the original film of what happened, as I descibed before the highlights were shown. unfortunately the snipper was not caught on film, as the angle did not allow visual of the bushes by the bridge, however it may have been a rubber bullet as Mair made a quick recovery. Terry has said in an interview that Russell can still get a run out in the Accies game. Does anyone know if Pedz has a one game ban, or is it more.

didnt realise that there were two seperate cricket teams. let them groundshare i say. does anyone go to watch either of them. Is it not inconvenient for them to have to deal with the Tattoo, and concerts etc

typical but if the cricket was there first, you cant just steamroll them because they play an unpopular sport at a poor level. However, this has rumbled for a long long time now. Why cant the council just decide to award them a home pitch. Not as if their aint many around - Bught, Milton, Charleston, new Inshes, Culloden, North Kessock, Canal pitches. What do they need in place? Fenced off, stand, changing rooms, floodlights, parking, ?????

ENGLISH SEASON OUTWITH THE PREMIERSHIP AND PLAYOFFS FINISHED YESTERDAY. A LOT OF FREE AGENTS

whilst we in the majority dont want a straight 10 team and play each other 4 times a season league, the 12 team split is also not perfect, but does add an incentive to most teams up until the last five games. If it went to a 14 teaam league we would still have a split but would even out the home away 3 times arguement, but the more teams in the league the less they can help the lower division apparently. Another equation would be to work the tv deal, and put 10% OR what can be agreed aside for helping the lower leagues. That would be better for the game as a whole, rather than the self interest of the chosen ones. Anyway dont know of a league with a split ofhand, but there are a few, but the likes of the dutch have play offs between teams after they finish, ie Ajax finish second but have to play Sparta Rotterdam finishing 5th to find out who will play in the champions league, even though their may be a 40 point gap between the league placings. thats a lottery that rewards failure in my view, but not if i supported Sparta. Only an example by the way - no idea where Sparta are in the league
