  1. Ashers pies at Nairn - yummmmmmmm - 99% salt !
  2. I'd take Caley back to the Highland League days when they visited Station Park for their regular rogerings by the Wee County - Happy days Beachcomber is just back from the Nairn v Elgin Scottish Cup Tie. 4-2 to Elgin, but they got two soft penalties and County had a goal chalked off for a dubious offside, so I'm claiming it as a moral victory. I'm sure the ref was John Teasdale !! (I saw him in the P&J looking for a job back in football right enough !) Big crowd, good crack, City supporters pouring off the trains at Nairn Station, The Vic jumping before the game, snaking queues at the gate, Cowshed hoaching, all in all, a cracking day out except for the official score. photos from the gurnmeister here
  3. maybe the board just don't want to be reminded of their last costly interaction with a person of Romany origin
  4. Do you reckon ICT can bounce back to the SPL next season, and what are the biggest threats to them not making it ?
  5. The table doesn't lie, but I honestly didn't expect to lose today. Reality only hit me at the final whistle.
  6. Hello from the North Sea - By feck the next 45 minutes are going to be high stress.
  7. All the 'headhunters' and 'recruitment consultants' I've come across have been nothing but fast talking opportunist spivs and flash harrys.
  8. You'll never Waulk alone ?
  9. 'Bring it on Home' - bring it on back
  10. Davie Johnston
  11. A Penthouse Cottage - nice idea - a potential niche market for Tullochs ? Nairn is what it is - a fast fading Victorian sea-side resort that's seen better days, (a bit like your correspondent) with a run down High Street, but still with a great beach and home to the odd Oscar winning actress and ICT chairman. It doesn't pretend to be much else. But Snecky masquerading as a cosmopolitan city - you've got to laugh.
  12. Face it, Inversnecky IS a backwater. It's a dull regional town, miles from anywhere with limited attractions for most twenty-somethings, unless they're tree hugging, munro-bagging, gore-tex fetishists. There's not too many professional footballers want to spend their free time hiking the Lairg Ghru. These young lads want pubs, nightclubs, more pubs and more nightclubs full of would be WAGs who're game for whatever it is premiership footballers aspire to do with them. Unless ICT start paying them silly money (which they thankfully can't and won't), there's no incentive for them to head North and there's not a whole lot can be done to change it. Most of the folk I've come across who argue otherwise have never actually lived anywhere else and still think having a Markies makes the place a city.
  13. imagine expressing surprise at Rossco regularly getting booked - it's what he does he puts his right leg in his right leg out he does the Rosco Tokely and he shakes it all about Oh Tokely Tokely Tokely...etc Then he normally gets booked for it.
  14. Correct ! The signs are all there and if Johndo summons up the influence his spirit friend, the great meeting at Station Park will become reality. I'm sure you'd love that too Charles.
  15. He's got a great Highland name though, sounds like he should have a big mad red beard and carry a claymore.
