PaderbornCaley

I am just back from Hampden. Myself and 2 other Caley Thistle fans thought we'd head along and do our part today. I'm surprised at such a low turnout from fans of teams in the central belt. There were around 15 Rangers fans (all claiming to be the people), 10 Celtic fans (very smug), and the 3 of us observing and chatting with press. We (the Caley Thistle fans) chatted with a few journalists, particularly Alex Thomson. Very interesting morning. As I left the stadium, the chatter from many of the journalists was that the SPL2 is a 'dead cert'. Also rumours flying around that 'two high profile figures within Scottish football will be asked to resign very soon'. The Rangers fans were the only ones that were really protesting. We were merely observing, although when asked, our views were the same views that the majority of ICT fans believe. If anything, it increased the knowledge of the Highland March within the press, especially when people were asking what our t-shirts were all about.

Thursday 19th - Muir of Ord v ICT at Muir of Ord, 7:30pm kick off We're playing a Sunday league team... on a Thursday! I'll be there, but can someone tell me what field we will be playing at? Wellies at the ready!

Trialist (N. Novo) just came off the bench.

What time does your train get in again? We'll be waiting in Spoons.....

Heading with RedCard as well. Top Six, I think you should join us. Will wear the new Paul Sheerin charity t-shirt (if it arrives on time).

Why are these dates of interest to bigots?! Man landing on the Moon?! Half penny ceases to be legal tender?! National Lottery starts?!

Bought mine last night. Cracking t-shirt!

....... or an MP stating the name in Parliament.

Sorry mate but I have to disagree there. Stenhousemuir have made a statement, in colloberation with Doncaster, Regan, Longmuir and Co, based on a totally worst case scenario, in an attempt to find a way of saving a dead club. There may be clauses in some contracts but there is no indication, as yet, that those clauses will be acted on. When the clauses were set up there was no indication of anything that has happened. We are in a situation that was never thought of. It could easily transpire that the TV media will see Celtic v Hearts, or any other club, as being the new OF type derby. It may well be that they see pulling out as losing customers. None of us know the true effect of no Rangers. Not even the people who run our game. Stenhousemuir have very strong links to the former Rangers and are expanding the spin in my opinion. I have to agree with Alex here. They are also stating a lot of assumptions as fact. The last paragraph effectively states that they want Newco in Division 1.

I agree - the problem is about half of the journalists in the central belt are fans of the club formerly known as Rangers. Most of the Daily Record journalists will also be fans of the club formerly known as Rangers. Spin, spin, spin!

After reading Regans latest comments, Picard has a message for him.....

I just came across this.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/18700590 After reading this, all I could think about was the Jean-Luc Picard gif! lol

With Airdrie saying they will not vote, then this seems likely.

But it's the best away day! lol The fans are all in the no camp - just the chairman who has let down his clubs supporters. Apparantly the hotel makes either feck all money / runs at a loss.

Fairy nuff! Can we bring back Barry Wilson?

But Doran naturally plays on the left wing... we need a new right winger...

I'll be there in spirit. I'll be doing a 6 mile run to work tomorrow morning - i'll take a ball in my back pack and dribble the last half a mile lol

Neil Doncaster is a ****. That is all.

IF we sign him then it appears to be a good signing. I feel the same about David Raven also. The fact that Draper was the only player offered a new contract and rejected it means he must be worth something. Anyway, I heard he is seven foot tall.

Is it safe to un-mute the TV yet?
