The simplest thing would be to unite behind the manager and all bring English flags.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2004/no...knowledge.sport This link includes the following statement "Latvian hotshots FK Venkspits had eight different scorers in an 8-0 Uefa Cup preliminary round win over B68 Toftir of the Faroe Islands". So it was not a record yesterday but obviously very unusual.

Perhaps County would have more success in scoring goals and winning games if Adams learnt to do what Terry only rather belatedly did. That is to stop picking Barrowman and play somebody who understands that the aim of the game is to get the ball between the posts.

Why did Rooney only score one? Was he not trying? Is he suffering a dip in form? Seriously though, don't know if it is a record but it's only one better than Huddersfield who won 6-0 away from home yesterday with 6 different scorers. Perhaps this is not as unusual at the feat of Chris Nichol playing for Aston Villa several years ago when he was the only scorer in a 2-2 draw.

Seventh goal, seventh scorer, seventh heaven! What a team and what a way to celebrate the championship!

For me it was the first game of the season - the stunning victory over a Montrose side brimming with confidence and eager to humble the newly relegated big boys from the North. For 90 minutes the game was the most awful rubbish you have ever seen. One wag asked whether we would get our money back if we stayed for extra time. When it was announced that there would be extra time of 15 minutes each way, someone shouted "can't you make it 5!". The next 30 minutes was even worse. Then to penalties. We went first and the first four penalties were converted for ICT and one missed for Montrose and then up stepped Lionel. Was he nervous? Was he afraid of ICT being humbled should he miss? Not a bit of it! Up he stepped and cool as you like, chipped the ball past the despairing keeper! I realised then that the previous 2 hours of dross was just play acting. It was all meant to deceive so that the game could be decided on penalties and we could be treated to Lionel's touch of Gallic brilliance. Such a game plan required supreme confidence and I knew in that moment that the players believed and therefore I believed as well.

:( No pitch invasion, please. We don't want the team to have 10 points docked as a punishment! :D

Thats a bit old school dont you think! Corrected question. That's a bit old school don't you think? Answer. No! If you are looking for something a little newer there is apparently a song called "The Butcher's Last Dance" by Buckethead which is a very convenient 45 minutes long. Apologies if anyone has already mentioned this but I have not read all the thread - got bored with all the stuff older than "Up where we belong". Enjoy the party at Ayr, son!

What a first post! Great stuff! But can anyone name all the scorers?

Seems to illustrate a great team spirit

Really looking forward to paying more to watch us lose more often! Seriously though, after the euphoria of this stunning achievement, we will have to have some realistic expectations for being back in the top flight on a very limited budget. We've got used to winning but that will come to an end. One place above relegation will do fine for me next season and everything above that will be a bonus to savour.

Please, Terry, sign me!

Anyone know the way to Alloa?

Thanks Elgindee - much appreciated. And you're most welcome to the party on May 1st

Hark! Is that a fat lady I hear singing?

Coincidentally, I heard that that the Ross County team bus broke down briefly on the way back from Dumfries last night

The orchestra may be playing the intro and the fat lady may have taken a big deep breath - but she aint started singing yet!

Whilst Rooney has improved, I don't think he has improved by leaps and bounds because IMHO he was a terrific player at the end of last season. It is a complete mystery to me why Butcher was reluctant to play him at the end of last season and the start of this season. Others like Hayes, Eagle and Cox have also improved but for me it is not about individuals improving, it is the team as a whole. It took a while for the team to gel but they are playing well as a unit now and that makes a difference. In particular I think the back four (or five) as a group would jointly get my vote. Although they are very experienced, I thought both Tokely and Munro looked very jaded at the start of the season and when he came into the side I thought Golabek had lost a yard of pace and was probably past his sell by date but all three have improved considerably as the season has progressed and with solid contributions from Proctor and the improving Bulvitis we have now developed a very solid back line again. This has been the key to the good run because we have been scoring goals all season, but in the first half of the season we were shipping far too many at the back as well.

Is this at the start of the game or at the end of the game?

:( You're on form tonight!

Don't know if it partly because of your photo, but you are one of my fave posters, sir. That's very kind of you to say so! But just for the record, my avatar is not my photo - it's a pic of the late, great comedian Marty Feldman who was far better looking than me, I'm afraid.

It's done it again!! it is "Wilson on our wing" and not Johnboy who gets my vote! That's really wierd.

Can anyone explain how the following happened? In typing my post above I typed in "Johnboy" rather than "WOOW" as posted, but when I clicked on the "preview post" button the text "Johnboy" had defaulted to "Johnboy"!!! JB, have you hacked into my website with a desparate plan to gain the polular vote?
