  1. Who did you follow when you supported Caley ? Bjorg, Conners, Yvvonne Goolagong ? Are you still keen on tennis these days ?
  2. The SFA are clearly quite content now for cheating and gamesmanship being part of our game if they are not prepared to take the appropriate course in such a blatant case fully supported by video evidence.
  3. This is the man who got lightly wrapped on the knuckles for throttling an official.......beggars belief...
  4. Leaving aside the peculiar quasi political issues surrounding a Great Britain football team, in my view, an Olympic gold medal ought to be the pinnacle of achievement for the participant in any Olympic sport. Professional footballers, tennis players and now golfers all have much greater priorities than the Olympics which, for them, is merely a side show. For that reason alone, football, at least at professional level, has no place at the Olympics and that's before we even get started on the manifold perils of entering a Great Britain team.
  5. I may be in a minority of one but I actually think that Esson is the better of our two very capable 'keepers.
  6. That is an astonishing statement. I was born in the Highlands and have been closely connected to the area for over half a century. Like everywhere else, there is the odd idiot but there is no evidence to back up your slur on an entire region which I greatly resent. Who, by the way, needs to 'grow up' ? Would it, by any chance be those that have the temerity to have a different opinion to yourself ? Perhaps you should try debating without resorting to insult like the vast majority of posters on this site seem capable of.

    Former Jaggies might dispute that! But do you think this Billy may also come back to Inv Former Jaggies might dispute that! But do you think this Billy may also come back to Inverness? No such thing as a former Jaggie....once a Jaggie always a Jaggie..
  8. If we secure Raven and Watkins then we are well set for next season but I prefer to have Nick Ross aboard as well.That would just leave us short of a recocognised striker and who knows Ofere may be that man.
  9. £20, £10 concessions, under 12s free.
  10. HT; The Rangers 1, ICT 0
  11. Then you think wrong....normal service resumed......
  12. Let's not.....
  13. For once, I find myself agreeing with Laurence at least in three aspects out of four. I rather suspect that County's presence in the top division has a somewhat negative effect on our finances especially now that fewer of their fans seem to attend the TCS but, in my view, that is more than balanced by the other factors.
  14. Kick off apparently delayed until 2.30.

    If you were not so obsessed with your risible attempts at stereotyping or professing support for a party one of who's spokespeople 'only has issues with negroes' it might not have escaped your attention that there is more than one poster on this thread who has, in other fora, expressed support for independence. I have encountered few if any Nationalists who are in the least narrow minded far less so warped as to take delight in failure at a quintessentially English sport which, world wide, has almost as many followers and active participants as football.
  16. I was dancing in the street when I heard this I could hardly sleep with excitement...was up all of the day and all of the night.....
  17. What's with the 'they' ? Surely we are we.....
  18. That's Ofere with a capital O and two small e s.......
  19. Elizabeth ?
  20. Rings true with what i've heard, hear we are looking to sign two players, one most probably being Kink but heard that Prince Rajcomar and the other lad have left #notintheknow Yeah according to my source you are correct Your source being Wickipedia ?..

    Shinty...
  22. Did you ever think that maybe Watkins is staying and Hughes is turning him into a striker so then we would need a winger. When we have the likes of Danny Williams, Nick Ross, Aaron Doran and even Ali Sutherland at a push, do you really think we need another winger? Not when we don't have a single striker...
  23. ICTRoughi (page 1 of this thread) and myself (page 11) both suggested Scott MacDonald at the start of this month. This thread has virtually been defined by posters making reasonable striker suggestions only to see other clubs pick them up. Even around/before the start of the January window, Yogi was saying in the press that we should expect a bigger club to come in for McKay. I think the club was probably baiting a club to come in with some welcome money. Charles Bannerman has said elsewhere that the club budget has historically relied on periodic windfalls. This might have been viewed as another one. Consequently, right or wrong, the contingency plan must have been to "promote from within". The club would have well aware that Scott MacDonald was a free agent and I'm certain would have been given some consideration. How do you know that no approach was made to the player or his agent and that he simply didn't want to come this far North or priced himself beyond our wage structure ? I think it's legitimate enough to be critical of the club in principle for not replacing Billy McKay but it's going a bit far to criticise for not signing a particular individual without knowing whether that person was willing to come and, if so,on what terms.
  24. Aye but he retaliated which was wrong so no chance of the red card being rescinded.
  25. Maybe he's gone there motivated by a bit of old fashioned loyalty.
