  1. Probably just another of those midweek bounce games that we play cos we aint got a reserve league.
  2. So they've blown all their cash to win the league now they cant afford to play in the new league. They are obviously not too well educated either if they think they took 20,000 fans to Hampden. Many of that 20,000 were people like me who are fans of football that had never been to a final and were hoping to see the underdog win. This particular final was one of those that obtaining tickets was very easy due to the low fanbase of our neighbours.
  3. When you remove the OAP's kids and students is it possible for Livi to muster up 1600 fans.
  4. When playing with photoshop type programmes its usually a good idea to get rid of the joins
  5. Could that be the Swiss Branch by any chance? More likely to be the governing body for curling in Scotland
  6. If anyone wants to read the Fair Play regs they can do so here. http://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/Tech/uefaorg/General/01/50/09/12/1500912_DOWNLOAD.pdf
  7. The question I ask is.......did McGregor actually say this or is it a bit of Paul Chalk journalism? It was Chalk who made the statement on STV news.
  8. The one thing that will always annoy be is the fact that we live in a democratic society and the SPL should do also. Any vote should be 50% + 1. Not 11-1 or 10-2 or 8-4. %0% + 1 is democracy.
  9. and overlooks Jonny Hayes
  10. You know your beat when the Mantis strikes
  11. Well done Ross County on winning the Scottish First Division. Looking forward to some good derby's next season.
  12. What do ICT and Dunfermline have in common? Barrowman relegated both.
  13. First off Dougal, the academy does not belong to RC Second, whats wrong with training at Fort George? Dunde U dont have fancy training facilities, they use council parks. I believe Hearts use Heriot Watt Uni. Many of Counties 17000 fans were neutrals looking to see history being made. How many did we take to Hampden for our semi?
  14. Does a thread that asks should we give County credit for their achievement this season have to turn into another merger debate.
  15. Barry's mum told Bobby that Barry had to play.
  16. Seems a strange move for Evans. Crawley are looking close to promotion. Good result for Brews first game in charge coming from one down to win 1-2
  17. I can see him doing well there though they are getting beat at Barnet just now.
  18. I think if County can keep the majority of their current first team they'll do ok in first season up. Adams has experienced playing in SPL and probably learned a fair bit in his short spell at Hibs as asistant. Most of the players have SPL experience and are at the right age. 24 - 28. Going on this seasons stats its very hard to predict what will happen next season.
  19. What I seen at the game and since in the highlights is that had Sandiver not pussy footed around and actually hit the ball he'd likely have scored. As it was he tried to take a touch onto his left foot, never seen Golo come in, panicked and went to ground. Golo took the ball fair and square.
  20. Aberdeen are not adding to any debt by building a new stadium. Their new stadium, alongside Coves new stadium, will be paid for from the proceeds of the many new flats, houses and penthouse suites that are to be built at Pitoddrie and Cove.
  21. Why Hibs County relegation battle? It can just as easily be us or St Mirren or St Johnstone or any of the others outside the OF.
  22. I believe for every drop of rain that falls, a flower grows I believe that somewhere in the darkest night, a candle glows I believe for everyone who goes astray, someone will come to show the way I believe, I believe I believe above the storm the smallest pray'r will still be heard I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word Every time I hear a newborn baby cry, or touch a leaf or see the sky, Then I know why I believe!
  23. I would not for one minute defend Rangers for their tax dodging antics. There is, however, a lot of talk about them not paying small amounts. Those amounts being talked about are payments that were due at the date of administration. ICT were one of those due money and have been paid. We dont actually know who else has or hasn't been paid so can we really comment on what we dont know. Many business's will have credit arrangements in place. It may be the deal is to pay monthly, quarterly or whatever. The administrators published a list of those who were owed money at the date they took over. At no time in the report do they say that any of the small creditors have not since been paid.
  24. That whole arguement could also be transfered to English football. How many clubs down south have won trophies whilst being vastly overdrawn? Its not the amount of debt Rangers were in that became their downfall. Its the ability to maintain that debt. Had David Murray not come in when he did Rangers would have been in this position years ago. As would Celtic had it not been for McCann. The other clubs who found themselves in serious trouble like Killie, Motherwell, Hibs, Aberdeen and Dundee U, and even us to a lesser extent, were able to claw their way out of it by realising that they had to get back to making things simple and building from scratch again. Laurence, are the trophies won by Man utd the proceed's of cheating? They reported debt of £408 million last year. Which, incidently, was a drop from the year before. Arsenal have admitted they wont be spending vast amounts on players until they have cleared their stadium debt. A debt they had when they were winning things. Newcastle and Liverpool are both where they are because of budget cuts to pay off debt. Are all those teams cheats? If you want to cast the stone at Rangers then cast it at all the others at the same time.
  25. I predict yesterday as being the start of an unbeaten run to the end of the season.
