Great double save
Peruvian keeper seems to make a hash of things when charging out and missing the ball, but makes up for it. Uruguay on the other hand will be wondering how the hell they didn't score from this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2R-0LpFQF0

Butcher to Barnsley? Terry stays put***
A brilliantly drafted analogy - but the flaw is that marriage is expected to be for life whereas football management clearly isn't. Reverting back to analogy mode, your wife has only agreed to stick with you for another 16 months, at which point you are both free to part company. Or, if at any time you put in a string of sub-standard Saturday performances with her, you are likely to be dumped without hesitation and replaced by a younger man who can give her more satisfactory results. She's probably already got her eye on somebody. Possible even a list of them. And in the interim, Grassa could step in to cover your marital duties - it wouldn't be the first time. She might actually be a little disappointed that you didn't decide to go off with that Yorkshire floozy. She'd get hundreds of thousands of pounds out of it and would have dozens of men queueing at her door, enthusiastically offering their services and desperate to fill her......vacancy.

Terry goes commando
Interesting article in the Independent about Terry's managerial history and his remarkable passion for football. http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/martin-hardy-terry-butcher-has-taken-the-long-road-to-become-a-wanted-man-again-8447028.html I can forgive the journalist for making a hash of our 1st division points turnaround, for this gem: "He once turned up at St James' Park for a Tyne-Wear derby, when Newcastle were romping away with the then First Division, with a shaved head and told his stunned Sunderland players they were all commandos behind enemy lines and they had a mission to leave with three points. Sunderland lost"

Was it Twitter, or that Transfer Rumours website?

And there's also the issue of libel damages he won over the years from the likes of the Sunday Times and anyone else who dared tell the truth about him.

BBC article here on the lure of English football and Terry turning down Barnsley, with quotes from Adam Rooney. Remember him? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20974124

Clach v Cove Rangers
Clearly that is way off the mark. All ICT fans know that "he's fat, he's round, he's worth a millions pounds......."

I googled Bobby Mann, and in addition to finding him valued at £175,000 on the Transfermarkt website, I raised a smile at this one: "I am the Modifier. My name is Bobby Mann and I am a qualified Personal Trainer, Life Coach and Sports Nutritionist."

Godwin's law : "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches." In other words, Godwin observed that, given enough time, in any online discussion—regardless of topic or scope—someone inevitably makes a comparison to Hitler or the Nazis.

You read the Daily Record?! Just clicked a link to their article from the BBC Gossip section, honest!

Had to laugh at this sentence in the Daily Record. "Record Sport exclusively revealed on January 1 that he was the Championship club’s top target" .....conveniently failing to mention that they were actually wrong and that Barnsley first offered the job to their real top target, Sean O'Driscoll.

Merger Talk
Remind me of your whereabouts pre-merger? Remind me when you started taking an interest in Inverness football? Remind me of your birthplace? Another ICT incomer lays down the law. Remind me of your whereabouts pre-merger - 'Nottingham', wasn't it? Have you finally rumbled yourself?

I'm half expecting tomorrow's Sun to report that Doncaster want Terry and their chairman will be flying to Ipswich in the club helicopter....

Poll - will he stay or will he go?
Well, 55% of ICT fans had more faith in Terry's loyalty than I did.

Paterson turned down Dundee Utd. But buggered off to Aberdeen soon after.

Part 2:- http://audioboo.fm/boos/1147883 These are worth a listen as reminder that Terry is an absolute gent and a proffessional, who speaks so highly of ICT but also priases Barnsley. BUT - notice how in the 2nd section, he completely skirts round the question of the vacancy at Doncaster.

Think you're being a bit harsh on Terry there. He conducted himself professionally, spoke to them for the right reasons, decided to stay for the right reasons, and set an example to the players that you can turn down a massive pay rise to stay at a club that has something special about it.

But I did just chuckle at a Barnsley fan's translation of the Terry's comments in the press release : "I had a look, it looked shit, I came back."
