Pele's Heroes

According to the front page the average attendance v the Pars is about 3600, so that means about 850 extra tig playing, seat kicking, sweetie guzzling little angels were in attendance. The mannie that runs the shops must've made a packet.

F**k me, now Falkirk have beaten the Tims :010: Didn't see that coming.

Rossco barely touched him - there was no need for it - he's a complete erse. Unfortunately it was Dorus' Day

A laudable idea, but I ended up sitting in the middle of a huge crowd of kids who seemed more intent on playing tig, kicking the seats in front of them or going back and fore to the feckin shop. If the lad beside me had one mars bar and coke he must've had a feckin dozen. No wonder they were hyper-feckin-active and I was up and down like a tarts undergarments letting them in and out. Bah Humbug

This has all the makings of one for the masochists. I haven't got anything better to do so can't justify not going.

It's zen football supporting

And the combination of p**hed fans taking a p**h against the back wall of the terrace with the resulting stream running down to the front.

Not so good having the feeder club slipping down a division. It always strikes me that the animosity from Dingwall towards ICT seems genuine while the attitude going the other way is more of a friendly rivalry. Or am I completely wrong.

Apart from the late Justin Fashanu are there any openly gay footballers ?

SNAP ! Hoping to make it to see them next week. First live band I ever saw, circa 1981/2 at the Ice Rink How can that be 25 years ago

Insane, as for one of the other ones on that page...... Imagine Tommy's Face

Sounds Good... Give Me a CCCCCCCCCCCCCC

Prices to give you the joyful kilmarnock blues All at TCS please note

The game has been postponed.......waterlogged pitch? :007:

There's a lot of complaining about the standard of football on display - haven't those people realised that that is the standard of the SPL - go along to Falkirk v Dunfermline or St Mirren v Dundee Utd and you'll see more of the same, or do these people all imagine that Lee Wilkie can normally be seen performing Ronaldo type tricks or Gary Maismith does a passable Zidane impersonation except when they come to play ICT. As for the support, I've only been to one recent away game and that was at Tynecastle (another humdrum SPL game) where a sizeable home support were completely mute throughout, and from what I've seen and heard on telly, other SPL clubs don't exactly rival Galatasaray for atmosphere either. There is a lot of criticism of both the team and the support which seems to based on an imagined standard of support and team performance that people think exists elsewhere when the reality is similar to what we see at TCS most weeks. That said, it's still self defeating for CC to criticise the support but I'm sure he'll learn.

Well done Grant Munro, another ICT legend. On the subject of appearances, I notice that Ryan Giggs will clock up 700 games for Man U. this weekend - that's some going at that level.

I sympathise with your posting Gringo, and I hate sitting next to some ignorant OF tosspot in the home end, but I must admit it made our last minute victory over Rangers at Xmas even sweeter to see the faces of those clowns when Rankine screamed in his winner. That bit of schadenfreude aside it should definitely be clamped down on by the stewards and police. It seems like they're the only people in the ground who can't identify the wannabe weegies.

I was watching the game at work and had to miss the 10 minutes or so during which McSwegan and McAllister came on - when I came back in with about 5 mins to go I was fecked if I could work out why we suddenly had these two on plus Bayne up front and a huge hole in midfield !!! I'm not usually one to criticise a managers tactics, but those were astonishing when we were sitting 1-0 up with 10 mins to go. I could've understood it if we'd been 1-0 down. I'm sick about the result and bemused by the substitutions. :007:

For what it's worth........ Fraser Tokely Dods Munro Hastings Duncan Black Rankin Wilson Bayne McSwegan Should Hart be available I'd take him on for Barry if he gets knackered, with Rory on for McSwegan once his batteries run out.

Alex - brave, but it's easy to see why you're stuck out here with me in the Nort Sea s**t instead of sitting behind a mahogany desk at TCS, :016: RiG - thanks for that - Roll on Hart's return

Can anyone clarify the current situation with Ritchie Hart - are we likely to see him back soon ???

I hope someone behind the scenes is seriously twisting Dargo's arm whilst offering to line his pockets as much as we can to sign on for longer. His erm shouldn't take much twisting at the moment !! There isn't another player in the squad who we need more.

I see what you mean, but I doubt many OF fans who came during the promotion years now stay away from TCS just because we're in the SPL. Can't speak for Inversneckians, but the Nairn OF fan(nie)s that I see at games have never attended other games at TCS, either now, or in season's past. Mind you most of them have never been within a hundred miles of Weegieland either.

in the scheme of things, no.
