Seems that Russell and Granty have been training this week, i'd have Grant and Duff starting, Russell does a good job and i think the team has missed him, but midfield is not a place to be unless you are 100% fit. The quandry is midfield, Imrie is way off form, Chipper is also way off the pace, but they can be very dangerous players so do we persevere and hope the show form or do they get dropped? Who'd be a manager eh?

Next time you are up for a home game Ali, call into the Innes a i'll buy you a couple of shouting juices. then you can be just like Alex Mcleod.

Its just like when we were a little team having the audacity to play well against a big team, the wee team players played out of their skin and this will get results..not all of the time just now and then there will be a shock and EVERY big has had that shock. Do all you Mr Negatives think that Hearts or Hibs would not like to get through on penalties? Anyway, am i right in thinking that Essons penalty save is our first save for a hellofa long time? cant even remember when it was, Maybe Broonie in a cup match?

And my wee team Airdrie beat Hearts on pens 4-3 !!!!!

Game over!!!! win 4-2 pens thank ****

Plenty time for ICT to score more....

Will item 4 be a stumbling block? He no doubt signed for utd on a healthy salary which could be as much as 3 times what the other players are on, this puts us right back into the marius scenario. Is he going to be worth that much? will the other players be pi55ed off as the were reported to be after Marius signed?

Yeah, feckin right mate.... i'm voting you on the first ICT supporters trust club liason commitee, we'll call you Rottweiler...

Is that not what the supporters trust is for?

Looks pretty good Don, just how large is XL though....would it fit you? if its like a club XL ....

Real fans turn out to support the club , being a supporter means turning out no matter what i'm afraid. If golf is your thing fair enough, but when we get to play Rangers at home in the Cup i bet you will be looking for a ticket. Ah the old "I'm not a real fan" routine. And you're so confident that I'm not a real fan that you add "I'm afraid" at the end of the sentence just to really hammer home, just how sure you are of what you're saying. Does being a "real" supporter also entail foaming at the mouth when reading bad things about ICT?... I'll take you up on that bet, in fact I'll go one further. I bet that until changes are made for the better at the club, I will not cast a shadow over the turnstile there... What do you say? Dont bother me one iota if you stay away from the Stadium, you are the one that bothered to post the story about preferring golf on a saturday, all i trying to point out is that a supporter turns out to support the team throught thick and thin. Anyway, what would you consider changes for the better? when we start winning more games? when Brew leaves? does that not qualify you as a fair weather supporter?

:thumb04: Bobby is enjoying :018: and ;) so his has run out for SPL footie

Oh sooooo sloooowwwww ha ha

Why cant you understand the booing of Rankin? fair enough he used to play for us, but he went for money and he was trying like **** to score against us! would you have clapped if he scored? boo the barsteward. We were told long before he arrrived that Barrowman was not a grafter, and not much of a targetman, he needs the ball to feet to do what he does best, and on saturday we were well guilty of not doing that. I can visualise a Niculae scenario here where we are not playing to our strengths and getting the best out of players, Brewster complained in todays press that the players were guilty of humping the ball up the park!! well **** me if he saw it why didnt he sort it, putting jimmy jabbi on was a complete joke, Zander might have given us far more options in that position. Why is f e c k banned? fock, fickin, fluckin, fockin etc etc where/ what next?

I didnt any booing of Shiels! bit if heckling maybe but most opposition players will get that from time to time. As for the booing of Rankin thats fair enough, ex players, legends or not will always get a hard time on their return to pastures of old, Wyness will get booed as did Dargo, legends or not they have new employers and are believe it or not going to try and score against us and enjoy it. Dont let sentiments get in the way.

Not only that...where were the drums yesterday?

A. No, because he was no better than the trialist from Man u Liam whatsisname b. No, are you paranoid?

For the purposes of pedantry? What rubbish is that you speak? There are complaints that Brew hasn't signed a defender, but yet we actually have and he was one of the first signings we made. I haven't seen him play yet, so I can't comment on whether I am happy with - but I am going to give him a chance as everyone else should. Has he actually played an SPL match yet? Or are you going to do to him what many did to Zibi Malkowski and write him off before he ever plays a competitive match? You are being pendantic thus for the purposes of pedantry, yes we have signed a defender. What folk are talking about is the desperate need for a centre back. Zadi is not a centre back by any stretch of the imagination. I have not seen him play in the SPL, but I have seen him play in person and yes I am going to write him off before he kicks an SPL football, because if he kicks like he uses his head, he'll close his eyes and miss it completely. I completely detest people like you. Caley have a track record of bringing in players who may not have been the best player and resurrecting their careers and making them a better play - Dargo, Dods (even to some extent Niculae) to name a few. To call me a pedant is stupid - I was not being pedantic I was being right, there is a massive difference there. But I wouldn't expect you to agree with that. Anyway, last I have to say on the matter. Just one last addition on this matter: We all post on this website and we all have our views, aint much point in having a go at eachother because we cant agree who is right or wrong, because its more about views. Anyway Jimmy Jabbi is a left back, not a player to cover central defence - never, You are being picky EWS, as you well you know we NEED an experienced CENTRAL defender to replace Dods.

Yes. We would also have a hellofajob finding shorts for him, because the ones he was wearing were not going to last another 5 minutes.

You have no idea what Brew has been up to. Would you be happy if he just signed a random defender who was awful? And techincally, he has already signed a defender this season. Of course you are right, but i do know that the defence was shyte last season and nothing has been done, how do i know that, Don calls it right.... there has been no mention at all about bringing in a new defender untill this week.

Fair enough but he hanst got much time left, Granty might be out for a while! And... Brew has known for a long while that a new defender was needed, why has he waited so long?

Wots a def?

Russell Duncan and Granty are both out, so Duff will start with Mcguire, with Nish being our bogeyman, Duff will need to be sharp and keep close tabs on him, no point in putting mcguire against him as he canna jump. I would like to see 4-4-2 but we will no doubt have 4-5-1 again with Rooney to start.

' Bear in mind, we also played plenty of part time players and youngsters at various stages of the game.' More like old farts and youngsters Mun, but it must be disappointing for 'Pool eh, to come up to sort the jocks out and get a humping and a lucky win.
