Ahem.

Butcher looked delighted at the end. Even though he is just a puppet for IHE.

We are wrong to mock Livi's woes, they are going to have the last laugh, apparently. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...ton/7863264.stm

Just beeds a bit of modification to become "Butcher out". We are 5 points adrift - things were never that bad under Brewster!

His career's been heading steadily south since he left us.

Think you need to find a better source then!

Looking like a bit of a one horse race now.

If he becomes the George Best of the North we won't complain.

on football manager it said he was on 900 a week.. I stand corrected

We are Odhiambo's 5th club. In his career he has made a total of 9 appearances and has never scored a goal. Butcher obviously see something in him.

Is 8/1 generous? I would say so, with the possibility of a new manager bounce. First goalscorer caught my eye on BlueSq : Garry Wood 14/1 Gary Wood 18/1 Oh, and Barry Wilson is 20/1.

With Cowie signing a PCA with Watford, I was trying to think of which other players have moved directly from ICT to England. The only other I can think of was Allan Smart (sold to Preston). Are there others? Incidentally, Smart recently left his 17th club. He had been in the very unusual situtation of being both Head of Youth Development for Southport and player/Asst Mgr at Burscough - at the same time, in the same league!

I'd guess he's on ?1,000 - ?1,200 basic?

Agreed he is extremely fit, can tear up and down the pitch all day when he's up for it.

It's amazing that Hamilton arranged a completely invalid loan deal. Don't clubs know the rules?

Is this rumour in a paper or something you've heard?

Yes.

http://www.oddcast.com/home/demos/tts/tts_...ple.php?sitepal Yes, she'll say anything you want. Cheaper than those 0901 phone numbers.

I suppose one of the reasons Butcher has joined us is that by the end of 2009 there's a fair chance that Burley and he won't have their Scotland jobs.

With Butcher having set out his stall in public, and also needing to assert his authority on the team, I would guess that he won't play PCA players unless there's no real alternative.

Nah, its Caldwell. But there's also a hint of Venegoor in there.

Are you Watford fans aware that Cowie won't be the first former ICT player to play for you? Clue - scored a winner against Chelsea for you.

Has it crossed anyone's mind that Cowie held Brewster in such high regard that he is only leaving ICT because Brew has gone? Didn't think so!

It's assumed by the OF that whatever is good for them is automatically good for Scottish football.

Was it 11-10 in the end? I seem to recall a Caley v Clach cup tie in the early 80s that went further than that.
