There will be one minutes silence prior to our game with Aberdeen tomorrow in respect of the souls who died in last weeks helicopter crash.

Butcher has been taking some psychology lessons from our own resident master of the wind-up IHE. Should be interesting tomorrow. Apparantly there's going to be an Ultra's demonstration after the game whether they win lose or draw. Nobody wants the tangoman.

Not sure about McGuire...........think he's past it. Byrne.......haven't seen enough of. Barrowman.........can he do it?? All the rest I'd be happy to keep with the addition of an experienced keeper, a left and right wing back, a couple of central midfielders and a John Hartson type striker. One or two would need to be moved on though. The three I've mentioned and season long loans in the first div for Wood and Zander to give them more experience and a chance to get back into the SPL the following season.

Was in the papers the other day that the wee jaggies were interested in him.

I'd have thought Bristol would be the nearer

Just dont get your kilt damaged on the march

Quote from Malpas in the courier: First sentence refers to pre Butcher era "Some of the players we've spoken too have said that while the fans were supportive, once things went against them they would go very quiet. "However, the players have now all noticed a big difference in the way the fans are because even when we're struggling they make some noise, which is really appreciated by the boys on the pitch."

Is anyone, apart from me and mine, going to the ball on 23rd May? Player of the year awards are going to be made during it. That is if the players get there in time. Think we could be playing away that day.

Why? he's not actually doing that bad considering the crap he has to work with.

Hmmm... Just think Don.........if I hadn't made my post about volunteers and you hadn't responded in the way you did would you have been in the chair last week? Well done someone at the stadium for taking the points raised on this thread on board.

Yep! Lets say Hibs are there and they win all their games. That leaves only twelve points possible for each of the rest. If one team gets those twelve then the other four will only have a possible nine. So if we can be ten clear at the split we cant be caught.

Got to take my hat of to the one and only wind-up merchant..............obviously most of you never actually read Bronsons first post.

And your assessment is based on what? He obviously hasn't done enough to catch the eye. never even made the bench for the reserves yesterday.

:thumb04: :018:

win the next two and we could be 10 points up with 12 to play for after the split. In fact win the next two and we could be safe.

Think Watford got a bargain there. Watch out the Prem could come a calling.

What?? Yourself 7 Skua, 5 Puffins, 17 Gannets and a Manx Shearwater?

McNulty is on a season long loan at Elgin. We did not put a recall clause into the deal so we can't get him back till the end of the season.

We WILL win tomorrow

This is supposed to be a thread of get well wishes. Not an analysis of the merits, or otherwise, of Kyle. please keep to the topic.

Kyle underwent surgery on wednesday to fit a plate to his upper jaw and a brace in his lower. I'm sure everyone who visits this site will share with C1C3 and wish him a speedy recovery.

Nice of you to instill some confidence in the lad before he's even pulled on a jersey. He's 17 ffs. He never asked to be in this position and he's likely to be nervous as hell. An apprentice being thrown in at the deep end. Of course he's not an SPL goalie. That'll take another half dozen years of learning before it's likely to come to fruition and I'm sure he's well aware of that but at least he's there to make up the numbers.

The coaching team at ICT are more than capable of filling in if Butcher is away for a few days. Anyway he can now give us his full attention till the end of the season.

Zibi is still without a club atm. i wonder why?? :thumb04: Only alternative left is too recall McNulty or tempt Garden to play for the day. Do the club actually plan to appeal Esson's red card?? Zibi's just signed for Onstad in Poland. That must have literally been within the last couple of days. Aren't coaches allowed to register themselves as players? I seem to recall Duncan Shearer doing that a few years ago. I think they need to register as player / coach at the beginning of the season or when they take the job. I dont think they can decide to fit themselves into a team without being registered as one of that teams players. Hopefully some of Terry's mates will come up with a loan keeper..........Scott Gallacher at Rangers???
