Charles mate, the SPL is predictably unpredicatble and I wouldnt put it past them to have the game on the 3rd... Having said that, it is one side of the old firm we're playing, so the bias attitude toward them may well mean our game being the 4th.

They've only gone and lost 3-0 aint they :rotflmao:

It's funny you should say that PMF, because thats just what we're discussing. Past years saw 2 teams - Team Yompa and Team Gringo. Team Gringo took the more relaxed approach to ensure the End-to-End was completed, whereas the slightly more insane bunch went with Team Yompa and hikes up Mountains or over fast-flowing rivers. It looks like this is the most likely out-come this year also, with TY attempting a full End-to-End, and TG doing it as a relay.

INVERNESS to HAMILTON May 11th to May 14th 2011 Well, there we have it folks. We thought Highland March 7 would be tough from Kilmarnock to Inverness (184 miles). We thought that Highland March 8 was tougher from Ayr to Inverness (203 miles - the first EVER Highland March to break 200 miles) It looks like this year has just become the toughest... With approximately 175 miles to cover in just 2 and a half days!!!! On a presonal note, I just want to get going now. I've been training hard since New Year having covered over 520 miles in that time, and with a planned overnight 12-hour jaunt tomorrow, i hope to be putting the finer touches into my training. BRING IT ON For the past few weeks since my last update, there has been alot of headway with regards to individual training. 4 of the Highland Marchers took part in an overnight 'fact finding' exercise at the back end of last month. With Gringo walking around Coventry, Yompa in Ayrshire, Chumba in Edinburgh and myself in Inverness, we all synchronised watches and set off into the night. Despite an early bath for Chumba (persistant foot problems), Yompa bailing out shortly afterward (recovering from calf starin) and Gringo smacking his face off a kerb stone (see illustration below), we believe it was a positive exercise. We found out not only how better we could prepare, but also what equipment was an wasnt essential, as well as how best to fuel our bodies for the long lonley night. As mentioned previously, this 'fact finding' exercise will take place again tomorrow in an effort to iron out those late-march niggles. All in all, training has been good for the majority, and I took a wee de-tour in front of the Traffic Scotland Webcam, just to prove that A) I was indeed out for a jaunt that particular day, and B) I am an idiot. I am happy to say there has been progress on the fundraising front also. The CLAN Supporters (Facebook link) will be looking to raise funds off the back of the Highland March this year, leaving the Marchers to get on with the task in hand, whilst much needed funds are raised to provide our disabled fan-base with a better match day experience, home and away. Less than 4 WEEKS to go until we set off, and although some routes have already been discussed with anticpation of various possible post-split scenarios, nothing as yet is final. The chances are it'll be predominently OFF-ROAD in an effort to knock off a few miles from the curvature of the A9 and Cycle Route 7. There's the support vehicle, accommodation and other bits and bobs to arrange, so for now it's off to get the maps out, make a few calls, and let these next couple of weeks fly by... BRING IT ON

On placing a bet a few weeks back, i ended up watching on of my betted matches online. that team was gremio when i went to look at their previous fixtures, i noticed they'd scored some amount of goals in recent weeks. this may be of interest to anyone who does the + or - handicap, goals per game or similar bets on any given game. Gremio their games have seen 16 goals in the last 5 matches, and since Feb they've had games finish 5-0, 6-0, 4-2 and 3-2. Plenty goals Their next match is against Oriente Petrolero on friday. Oriente Petrolero are from Bolivia and these teams are playing in what i would guess is their version of the champions league? They are currently top of their respective league, and although they dont concede many, they struggled in the last round to a team at the bottom of the Peru league

So the Aberdeen relegation party is still on? cool. Although I dont mind if Hamilton take their place

Cheers Scotty. I tried to look on the SPL site but in the 'fixtures and results' section. I didnt see the 'key dates' section. Anywho, top 6 could be decided tomorrow. Here's hoping it's not.

Firstly, am I right in saying the SPL closes on 14th May? I have checked BBC website, SPL site and others, and our list seems to be the only one I can find with dates for post-split fixtures (obviosuly all TBC after split, of course). Secondly, I notice we have a league fixture against celtic on 1/6/2019... thats some look into the future by our mods.

After St Johnstone's loss to Gers last night, i think it's safe to say it's between ourselves and 'Well for the final top 6 place now. I can't see Hibs beating Celtic, which obviously they need to do, and I can see it being a close game between St Mirren and Aberdeen - and even if aberdeen win, they've got a 9-goal difference to make up with motherwell. IF Motherwell slip up tonight to Dundee United, then I think top 6 is ours for the taking. Who knows really - it's a funny old game, isnt it

Raith draw @ 3.50

Not sure I agree with people who say Falkirk have horrible supporters. Experiencing their reception when we walked to Brockville on the final day of the first Highland March was fantastic, and this was repeated when we took a lap before Highland March 6. I've never had a problem with them outside HM circles either. Granted the way we were relegated leaves a sour taste in the mouth as far as Falkirk FC are concerned, plus I'm not a fan of Steven Pressley, but i cant really say their support is bad. So many other fans (hamilton, OF, aberdeen and Dundee spring to mind)

I understand what you're saying Alex, but some people have teams that wouldn't make it onto a favorites list, and it is these teams we're talking about. (I think ) When I lived in the Midlands I used to hate a few teams... Aston Villa - Because my dad is a former Blues fan and my mates at school used to think like Aberdeen fans of today. i.e. living off their euro exploit decades ago. Stoke City/Millwall/Cardiff - Excuses for organised fights whenever they played. It's football, not boxing! Blackburn Rovers - When I supported Man Utd I couldnt stand Blackburn. I think they cheated their way to their title, and there was too much arrogance in their squad in the form of David Batty, Stuart Ripley, Greame Le Sucks, Tim Sherwood and even Alan Shearer! Hated that. Southampton - Particularly when they thrashed Man U 6-3 at The Dell a day before we went to Weymouth for a day out! Greenock Morton - Most depressing stadium building site I have ever been to and just never likes them Now, since I've moved North, I quite like to see the Midlands teams do well (although I still hate Villa). These days (aside from the obvious) I don't like... Chelsea/Man City - as per reasons already mentioned by others regards buying success St Mirren - Rosscoe is Innocent!!! And their stewards are a bucnh of :******: 's MK Dons/Leyton Orient - Let me down one too many times on my coupons this season

It would be a shame if he were to not don the ICT shirt once more so the fans can give him a proper goodbye, IF this is really the end of his time here. He's a true gent and some may say an unsung hero. All the best at Brechin Roy!

Ross County Draw @ 3.60

I can only echo what most have already said. Despite a good handful of wrong decisions from the officials, (Goalkick to united when it was a clear corner, tokely's booking for a 100% clean tackle, amongst other things) we cannot put full blame onto them. We were dire, plain and simple. Odi was poor from the start. Frightening how someone with such a poor first touch stayed on the pitch so long. Should have been hooked at half time for sutherland IMO. Rooney was quiet, but he did seem to lack support up top too. Foran worked hard but always seems to defer any blame to other people. I recall in the first half a punt up forward from him when it was miles away from anyone. Ultimately he had a go a rooney who was over on the opposite flank. Crazy! Gillet was excellent when he came on, and I look forward to seeing alot more of him. For me the biggest question mark - and it gets repeated time and time again - is why we continue to go for the long ball punt and not play it to feet? F-knows how many times this happened, mostly in the second half. Doing that basically took hayes out the game, who had made a few decent runs in the first half. It also didnt help Doran when he came on either, and also MacDonald, who struggled to leap highest against their full-backs. United weren't much better, and my Tangerine orange friend who travelled with me yesterday totally agreed. 0-0 would have probably been the fairest outcome IMHO.
