from what I've found so far on here at least, Charlie Christie vs Alloa 23.09.95 ???

When you see a lad get his opertunity and he doesnt take it (i am of course refering to his open goal howler last week) then how can you consider him in a near future line up, especially in a fixture of such importance? Had Barrowloads scored that chance last weekend against Morton, he would have no doubt been on the bench if fit. With Eric eager to get playing again, I would suggest that Butcher though he would be far more up for it in terms of proving himself for team selections than barrowloads, despite the fact he has never experienced playing in a highland derby fixture

We had a fantastic day's walk. Although it was flittering between 0 and 2 degrees most of the way, we kept a decent pace to stay warm, with a little assistance from Highland Park, courtesy of TMFTJ - Cheers Manny!!! The plan was to leave the stadium at 9am and get to The Mallard for 1pm. I said this would be a 3mph pace (which would have infact meant we'd only cover 12 miles, not 15). We did in fact leave around 8:55 and got into the Mallard at 13:05... Not a bad effort at all. Myself and Dunco had a few laughs on route, not least one illustrated below, and were gutted to hear but not see the train go past us as we came out of Maryburgh. A few waves from the ICT faithful would have topped off the day. Excellent craic in the Mallard too... the only downside to the whole day was 90 minutes of pish... We'll definately be doing this again at out next fixture over the bridge. Hopefully we'll have a couple more recruits.

Just leaving my place now for TCS. I'll catch you all in the mallard... Manny - thanks for the offer but we'll decline on this occasion. Setting off at 9 would give us an eta at the Mallard of 1pm at a steady 3mph pace, and we'll probably stop off in Conon Bridge for a bite to eat too... Unless of course you're planning to fill up your thermos and loin us for a mile or 3???

I HAVE COMPANY PEOPLE :022: Dunco - a fellow Highland Marcher - is donning his boots for the short 15 mile walk. People are still welcome to join us for the walk from Stadium to Stadium. Leaving TCS main entrence at 9am. Should we get a decent pace, we could well be at the Mallard just as the train pulls in!!! lol

I think IHE is just scared I'm going to get him lost :( :( GOOD NEWS - I may have some company BAD NEWS - 'I MAY have some company' Did you know Millets still have their closing down sale on unil tomorrow?

Was he not in the studio the days before we hammered ayr 5-1??

the argument here would be that he has substancially reduced his annual income with the loss of his setanta spots. and that was before they went bust. Craig Levien has been seen on tv more often then not in the last couple of weeks too, yet he seems to be fine at utd. And he must be doing something right to be able to turn our fortunes round in recent weeks :D

indeed not.... he could warm up for the walk with a decent swim down the moray firth. :D

Even the folks have rules themselves out Alex... :angry: But hey ho, still plenty of time for people to change their mind B)

Not many takers for this hey? I bet the weather is keeping people away :025: :025: WIMPS!!! At least I'll be safe knowing so many people will have a pint waiting for me on arrival to the Mallard :004:

I got my tickets yesterday and it didnt sound like there was a huge amount left, so I wouldnt chance it if i were you. 4 adult tickets in the terrance only cost me ?52, which was a surprise!

It was mentioned at the start of the season that people may be up for a mini 'highland march' style walk to Dingwall for our first away fixture there next weekend... Although there are so many legalities etc that stopped this being an 'en mass' organised walk, it hasn't detered me from planning to walk to the game myself anyway. I love walking and I aim to use this to kick-start my Highland March 8 training ready for April. I have therefore just been out and checked over the route I intend to take... Starting from TCS, I'll walk over the bridge to North Kessock and follow the sea-front road through Charlestown. Onward past the camp site to Milton where I head north for half a mile to Blairdhu Farm/Cottage at the A832. there is then an off-road section over a few fields that takes me to Drynie Park. My main route then will be to walk through Newmore and Bishop Kinkell and hence on to Conon Bridge. Here there is a chance for a beverage and lunch stop/chipper. It'll then be pathed all the way into dingwall where i intend to meet up with everyone else who travelled by train/bus to the Mallard. I'll expect to leave TCS between 9 / 9:30am for an eta at the Mallard of approx 1:30 / 2pm. It's just over 15 miles. If anyone else is up for it then cool - meet me outside TSC main entrence no later than 9am saturday. Just make sure you have enough water, sandwiches/snacks and essential equipment such as water proof clothes (possibly even a hi-viz jacket). You'll be responsible for your own match ticket arrangements, travel back to Inverness and most importantly your own safety. Like I said at the start, I'm doing this purely because I like walking and want to get into Highland March training mode - it'd just be nice to have a bit of company really. :D

No thanks - I'm walking...

This is definately something for Boardroom Banta I think. People inside the club listening to ideas from the fans. there was mention of a quarterly meeting before, and although my name was initially mentioned as an attendee, I've never heard of anything since... thats been nearly a year!!!

Have just noticed that there are so far NO GOALS in division 2............. and half time approaches!!!

too late to have ?1 on a 7-4 scoreline now :( lol

B) :lol: :lol:

:angry:

Usually the away team is just read out, but I have a feeling two names in particular will be yelled out tomorrow. I for one will be standing applauding the two of them tomorrow. I would welcome them both back any day!!! January can't some soon enough now.

Perhaps a bit of Bjorg before your lyrics Alex... it's oh so quiet... shhhhh.... shhhhh It's Oh So Still... shhhhh.... shhhhh but then, again.... shhhh... shhhhh we'll start another big riot!!! Do do do do YOU ARE A GADGIE... etc

Off topic I know, but I had to point out the signature of FilthyStaggie - "I want to be Craig Brewster when I grow up" :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: brew.bmp

ha ha ha ha ha - i just had an image of everyone in a huge conga line doing Alex's "you cause all the trouble" around the two complainers.......(if only we knew who they are)

thats right - blame the spell check... it'll definately be a different atmosphere tomorrow.

WE SHALL NOT, WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED
