Mrs Gringo Bonnyrigg Rose v Stranraer draw @3.25 Gringo Bonnyrigg Rose v Stranraer draw @3.25

I think I'd get rather fed up in these parts explaining what ICTST stands for....so..for that reason, I'm out. Good luck with the sales though.

I caught the game (late in 1st half...missed the goal) on BBC Alba. For whatever reason the TV screen / live feed was going all pixelated and eventually failed. I was then forced to watch the England game for my football fix.

Sad news indeed. Sincere condolences to all his family and friends.

NPL Review for Game 40 Brilliant result against the odds. Much needed. Onwards and upwards. Scotty got Maximum points in the Correct Score section. SOS was the only one to get any points in the First Scorer section. Robert got the Crowd Section bonus – just 1 over. old caley girl still heads the table Total Entries 19 Predicted Match results H - 15 D - 2 A - 2 The Results HT: 0-0 FT: 1-0 1st ICT: Shaw 1st Opp: -- Crowd: 2075 Correct Predictions HT: 9 FT: 1 1st ICT: 1 1st Opp: 0 Crowd 5 pts: 13 Crowd 10 pts: 0 Crowd Bonus 2Pts: 1 Bragging Rights Caleycalum, CaleyCanary, caleyjag, Ictross, MrCaleyjag and old caley girl 11 Jokers Played 0 Your Points caleycalum 11 CaleyCanary 11 caleyjag 11 Ictross 11 MrCaleyjag 11 old caley girl 11 Scotty 10 Robert 9 crownjaggie 7 DoofersDad 7 Jodie Carnie 7 Joonya 7 Lmclmm 7 Mrs Gringo 7 Doofer 6 Gringo 6 SOS 4 Caley Braveheart 2 CDN Girl 2 TABLE - 40 01 - 262 - old caley girl 02 - 245 - Gringo 03 - 242 - caleycalum 04 - 237 - Ictross 05 - 234 - MrCaleyjag 06 - 207 - CaleyCanary 07 - 200 - caleyjag 08 - 197 - Robert 09 - 194 - Mrs Gringo 10 - 189 - Doofer 11 - 184 - Jodie Carnie 12 - 180 - crownjaggie 13 - 172 - Joonya 14 - 170 - DoofersDad 15 - 161 - Lmclmm 16 - 151 - Caley Braveheart 17 - 144 - Scotty 18 - 125 - CDN Girl 19 - 108 - bughtmaster 20 - 103 - SOS 21 - 22 - Jock Watt 22 - 21 - Kingsmills

That would account for why Tiffoney was on the deck for ages getting treatment then instead of jumping straight up, grabbing his hand bag and shoving Welsh in the chest like a little girl.

Never a red card, shocking decision. And why didn't Tiffony get a yellow for his hand bag retaliation? Anyway, a great and much needed three points.

Mrs Gringo Montrose v Pars draw @3.60 Gringo Stenny v Forfar draw @3.50

We do, very much so, need the money. Yes, the build up is fun. Yes, losing to Falkirk would not be very nice. Not being harsh on the players at all. After the reprieve from being knocked out of the cup they've earned the right to be where they are. Good luck to them and I'll be behind them. The fact still remains that we are currently a very mediocre mid table Championship club in poor form. The fact still remains that I dislike the OF (or whatever folk call them today) with a passion. The fact still remains that I dislike the team I love getting gubbed by one of 'them' or anyone else. The fact still remains that I will do my best to go to the final if we make.

How many times have we said that recently...and failed? It's worrying. Now, I know this may sound awful but....I'd rather Falkirk take the humiliation in the final rather than us. Taking on one of 'them' with no match practice / fitness doesn't bare thinking about in my view. Yes, the money for the making the final will be much needed but...at what cost to reputation?

NPL Review for Game 39 One week on a high and next week on a low. Football is stupid. No maximums in any section for this game. Only three winners in the Correct Score section. Gringo got the Crowd Section bonus – 16 under. old caley girl is still holding on to top spot.

Lots of obstacles being thrown in my path towards Glasgow. Hopefully they can be overcome. My biggest concern is the possible announcement of further rail strikes. They need to be sorted before I buy match tickets as there'd be no chance of a refund.

Welcome back Jock. Hope you are well. Out of respect for Kingsmills I kept his points tally open. He was a regular and dedicated member of the NPL and played for many years. Sadly missed.

Something in the air? You ain't seen nothing yet?

Me too. Watched the game on council TV and like everyone else felt the worse after conceding that early goal. I think we got lucky with the pen but we took the gift gladly. We were on top at that point and deserved to be level. Brilliant result and a great confidence booster for the team and the fans. Great noise from the support too who hardly stopped throughout the game. Well done lads. It now looks like I'll be dragging my dusty ICT scarf out of the cupboard and take it on a trip to Glasgow. I'll look forward to the draw on Monday night and would like to avoid one of them.
