  1. I merely pointed out that I can't think of anything positive about the club, either on or off the pitch, that you have ever posted. If I am mistaken, perhaps you can refer me to it and I will happily apologise. More seriously, if you think that I have been bullying you then that is a very significant breach of site rules which I suggest you report and I, in common with any other moderator subject to such a complaint, will recluse myself from being part of consideration of it.
  2. There is little that this particular poster posts that is not harsh. I struggle to think of him ever saying anything positive.
  3. Charlie Chritie is responsible for a great deal more than the Centenary Club.
  4. Delighted about the first. Much as he has been a wonderful servant over the years, a little ambivalent about the second.
  5. Just when you think there might be grounds for optimism, Scotland, well and truly, revert to being Scotland.
  6. Because the club has a combined history going back to 1885 when both Thistle and Caley were founded. My only issue with the Centenary Club is that I never win anything!
  7. Given that the results are improving, albeit marginally, and are pretty much in line with expectation, I don't understand the depth of negativity from some posters.
  8. Given the the choice, can I please opt for the former?
  9. Where are you seeing a clamour for glamour friendlies ? I think most of us, after a long hard season with a shortened break, are content with any regime that gets the squad match fit for the season ahead.
  10. I entirely agree. There are some good things going on at board level and sof of them may be commercially sensitive but most are not. Many of us are financially invested in the club, even if only to a very limited extent, all of us are emotionally invested and we do deserve to be kept better informed and on a much more regular basis.
  11. One way of wiping out these annual losses would be to somehow attract another thousand through the turnstiles.
  12. I agree. Too many and at too high salaries for a vlub of our limited resources.
  13. Although there was a point when we were paying managerial salaries to John Hughes, Richie Foran and John Robertson all at the same time.
  14. Would probably have been an option if we had been promoted but almost certainly not now.
  15. Add a few more and there is every chance that the second year of that contract will be spent in the Premiership.
  16. Very good news indeed. An increasing infuential player and worthy club captain.
  17. Have a great time. I understand that there will be a sheet on each seat with the words to the Ukrainian national anthem. I hope that our team and our fans belt it out with the same gusto as Flower of Scotland but then, when the whistle blows, put all sentiment and sympathy aside until the match is over.
  18. An annual loss in the region of quarter of a million is not unexpected trying to maintain a competitive full time team in the Championship. Next year's figures will be boosted by our share of the add on paid to Celtic in relation to Ryan Christie for Bournemouth's promotion and the income from reaching the play off final. An ongoing cause for concern but no cause for alarm.
  19. This poster has made a number of interesting observations well worth discussing. However, I am pretty sure that they would be met with a much more positive response if they were not phrased in a manner that wasn't remotely amusing in the first place and has now become utterly tedious. It's a pity because, as I say, the contents of the posts are often interesting and worthy of debate.
  20. Assuming he remains fit, my money would be on Roddy to win this award next season.
  21. Although you had to make sure that they were the luxury paper ones rather than the slippery shiny and completely non absorbent ones beloved of school janitors and the custodians of many other public buildings in the 60s and 70s. They were just about as useless for throwing as they were for their primary function.
  22. Great to see these youngsters support their local team with such passion and enthusiasm. Pleased to see the club engaging positively with them. I realise that money is tight but surely one positive step would be to improve their facilities with the West Stand getting a bit of a tidy up and preferably a roof which would both keep them dry and and channel more of the atmosphere they create onto the pitch rather than disappearing into the sky. I know that I have been critical of the actions of one or two individuals but the vast majority of our young crew have been a great credit both to the club and themselves. It would be good also if efforts could be made to make more girls and young women feel more welcome to join the crew. These are are our future long after us sweetie rustlers have departed the scene.
