  1. It's there in glorious technicolour on the back page of the P&J too

    Never mind Ike's mantlepiece, it's one for blowing up big style for the TCS foyer, look at the perfect line up of the players all facing the camera, and what looks like a wee touch of the highland sun setting away over the Firth.

    This one and the one of Blackie turning the two tims outside in are sublime.

  2. I know us heilanders can be hard to impress, but some of the attitudes at TCS really do beggar belief. In fact, you've cast a wee shadow over the victory by reminding me of it.

    What do the amateur psychologists and sociologists on here have to say about this highland characteristic. I know it can be grim up north, but some of the negativity I hear down there fair boils my wee wee.

  3. Parole on Wednesday though  :001:

    and no more working for a week or three  :001: :001:

    Caught a brief highlights on Setanta news but for some reason, they show them in a kind of postage stamp corner of the screen  :008:,

    still looked good though  :001: :001: :001:

  4. Haven't seen any of it yet  :008:

    Went down the TV lounge and some group of f@nnies were watching some other game,  :008: :008:

    even tried the smokers, but they were on the same feckin channel. :008: :008: :008:

    But who cares, it's the result that matters :003: :003: :003: :003:

  5. They're playing your song........

    It was Christmas Eve babe

    In the drunk tank

    An old man said to me, won't see another one

    And then he sang a song

    The Rare Old Mountain Dew

    I turned my face away

    And dreamed about you

    Got on a lucky one

    Came in eighteen to one

    I've got a feeling

    This year's for me and you

    So happy Christmas

    I love you baby

    I can see a better time

    When all our dreams come true

    They've got cars big as bars

    They've got rivers of gold

    But the wind goes right through you

    It's no place for the old

    When you first took my hand

    On a cold Christmas Eve

    You promised me

    Broadway was waiting for me

    You were handsome

    You were pretty

    Queen of New York City

    When the band finished playing

    They howled out for more

    Sinatra was swinging,

    All the drunks they were singing

    We kissed on a corner

    Then danced through the night

    The boys of the NYPD choir

    Were singing "Galway Bay"

    And the bells were ringing out

    For Christmas day

    You're a bum

    You're a punk

    You're an old slut on junk

    Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed

    You scumbag, you maggot

    You cheap lousy faggot

    Happy Christmas your arse

    I pray God it's our last

    I could have been someone

    Well so could anyone

    You took my dreams from me

    When I first found you

    I kept them with me babe

    I put them with my own

    Can't make it all alone

    I've built my dreams around you

  6. Pele's other differentiating factor is that he succeeded consistently at constantly improving levels with pretty much the same team.

    Truly remarkable.

    I'd loved to have seen him take us all the way.

    He probably does too.

    Another reason to dislike the Dandy Dons.

  7. Eddie Smith = total feckin  :******:

    Had to laugh when he was flattened by one of the ICT players (Black ?) in the centre circle :015:

    Is 6000ish not about par for an Aberdeen game ?

    Atmosphere from ICT end was pretty flat yesterday though, but fair play to the lone voice from the main stand who was determined to try and get things going.

  8. Can confirm definitely 1885 for Jags.

    Of interest might be the date of 7th March 1885. This is, according to the'Inverness Advertiser', the date of the first football match to be played in Inverness under Association Rules. Crown v Nairn.

    Crown were later 'absorbed' by Jags in 1889 !

    I'd imagine Nairn gave them a good seeing to. :015:

    Wouldn't have been Nairn County as such, because as far as I know, they were officially formed in 1914.
