RiG Personally been away but have been watching with interest. To be honest most of the stuff thats getting spouted on here is not even worth replying too either because its innacurate or total bollocks!!. Yes people are upset because Barry Wilson is getting released, its a shame but heh life goes on,decisions have to be made and nobody stays forever and someone (i.e. the manager) gets the flak. The big picture needs to be look at here, if you step back and look at what is happening, this is a major re-building that will take time. Knee jerk reactions will not help and the board will not have any! I noticed its been quiet too, the Immortal Hairy One or whatever it is has been absent also. Maybe he's seen the bigger picture also ! Ralphie

Then he'll be missing then, maybe your mate might get a start

He doesn't pick the defence on the basis of mates. I think you'll find that none of todays back four are MATES of the manager. Think theres a good chance that todays back four will get another start next week, they did pretty well after all !

Different question I was responding to the statement that he MUST become a coach at ICT. Do I think he deserves a new contract for 5 months? Probably Do I think he'll get one? Unlikely I think the wages will be released to attempt to bring in a similar/younger version or maybe go towards other areas in the team, Only MY opinion now, not those that have primed me to say so

Ralph even if you are been primed by those at the top Well sorry for sticking up for myself but what do you expect when you come out with rubbish like that?

Don't you think if he MUST become a Coach he would have become one by now? Ralph even if you are been primed by those at the top they should have told you he is only 36 years old Whats his age got to do with it? If you cant see what age has to do with been a coach enough said, maybe you havent been primed enough to understand that Don't make ridiculous assumptions on being primed you pap, you're way off the mark. If he was good enough or thought of as a future coach he might have been considered by now thats all I'm saying. After all Alec Cleland is coaching the under 19's is he not !!

Sorry Bingo but I've checked all the Uefa and Fa websites and don't see Danny Mc, JR or CC Are you sure about your facts? There is a list of all who qualified in 2004 and D Mc and JR aint in it

The passion will always be there in abundance regardless of what others might think, the crowd will never be 40,000. If it was ICT would be a guaranteed 3rd and fighting with the filth for better And yes the crowd would make such a difference !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank the lord, the first time someone has mentioned that he has the club at heart except me Pele, your spot on he has. Won't be easy to convince others though Ralph I am not sure so many other were concerned he has the club at his heart as after all he had Dundee United at his heart and history will tell what happened there, I do think brew is a decent guy but this is a entertainment business, and talking about heart, nobody had the club more to his heart that CC but that means nothing obviously, get the team playing attractive football with a bit of passion, and wherever his heart is the fans will support him end off Stevico1, United was a different animal mate, won't go into that but its in the past ! It's a forward looking business and if players were available on a different budget to what ICT have, then teams might well go down the A9 with the tail between their legs, but as Drochit Blue says its much easier to do it the other way round as the emphasis is on the home team. The home team never gets the luxury of sitting back from a home support (quite rightly) its just a fact ! Mantis, maybe your right but I'm delighted you've come away feeling what you did today because thats what its all about :thumb04: :018:

You're spot on !

;) :thumb04: IHE, I much prefer it when you provide such humour unlike the other night when the abuse was being thrown about ! Ayatollah ? mmm wrong type of adjective I'd say and I'll watch your prediction regarding Hastings, McBain & Wood with interest to see if we're doomed. Killie away (tough fixture) but I'll predict a scoring draw, followed by lots of moaning and drivel over the coming days !!

I will expand further but only slightly as my one word reply was given because if you actually read and dilute what was claimed in the original post above some of the content with all respect to the author is complete and utter crap, yes maybe you saw and heard what you say but if you actually ask yourself why then maybe just maybe you might think a bit more WHY ? Trust me on this chaps when it is suitable I will write some long posts and fill in some posters on some myths and rumours but not yet, oh and while I'm on why oh why don't you all just get behind everyone at ICT instead of bitching and moaning about a lot of bull

AMAZING

You're entitled to your opinion

Go on give us an example of when CB has let the board walk all over him ? As I hope Barrowman will get better, Brewster chased him for an age and it wasn't him wanting to wait but the board pressuring him to get his signature... he even put out deadlines (which Barrowman ignored and shame on him) but remained on the chase afterwards as the board wanted him to Sorry but that is total poop

Go on give us an example of when CB has let the board walk all over him ?

Where in any post did i say he's a great manager? Thats not what i was on about, what I was meaning was he is most definately passionate about ICT and for anyone to suggest otherwise well quite frankly they don't know JACK. ICTodd, JR/CC/BW sorry but i think you've been reading too much Mills & Boon this weekend

Seriously, you are soooooooooooo wrong

But - what is really irritating me - is that he is heading towards the team and the tactics that some of the more astute posters have been asking fer for months !! I can reveal that he reads your posts on a daily basis and thinks long and hard about them, maybe you're getting through, keep it up :thumb04:

Extremely well put :thumb04:

:021: :thumb04: :018: ;) :015: :D :P You've just sent me to bed laughing hysterically

Mate ? Free ticket ? what are you on about ? Just making the point that there's some people on this site who won't see a bad word said about certain people at the club because they are buddies and not because they think that person is actually benefiting ICT. In much the same manner as certain people only have jobs/positions at the club because of who they know and not because of what they know or what they can do. All of the above is, of course, purely opinion!!! Opinion based on what? Buddies, mate, what are you saying ! You don't know me or are you just listening to your buddies and mates ! Did I say you? Some might think you were being a little paranoid though Don't back track now ! Paranoid - sorry, not guilty Thought that might get thrown in, but your spot on buddie
