  1. Plays for some Polish club I believe
  2. How do you go about loaning someone who hasn't a club?
  3. I don't think you can compare. How many would St Johnstone take to a League cup final? How many would we take to a Scottish cup final? The Scottish cup is a far more prestigious event. Many fans of other teams will attend, especially when it doesn't involve either of the Glasgow twins. This was also St Johnstone's first ever final so many glory hunters came out of the woodwork to see history being made.
  4. FC Edmonton
  5. That news is a year old. The lad made 3 appearances and one of the bench for Montrose in Feb. I think he may have only been an emergency one month loan. Hopefully another good youth prospect into the first team. And if he fails at football I'm sure he'll have a life in politics.
  6. You have strengthened the opinion that English people are the racist ones with your first sentence Laurence. Not Scots or people from the north. No! It has to be You lot
  7. Congratulations St Johnstone on your Scottish Cup victory
  8. Maybe we could get Errea to sponsor a pre season tournie with other Errea wearers. Maybe Parma, Norwich and Nantes for a bit of competition.
  9. Some stats to ponder Average home league attendances over last three seasons have been 11/12 - 4023. 12/13 - 4037. 13/14 - 3558. We played 19 home games in each of those seasons. 11/12 season had Rangers yet average was less than 12/13 with County. We had two home games against County and averaged 6258. This season we had one home game against County and a crowd of 4332. That equates to an average crowd drop of 1926. Statisticians looking at those figures could deduce that, if County are taken out of the equation, our gates are actually up. The fact is our crowds for 13/14 dropped by 479 but the average against County dropped by 1926 therefore our crowds for all games barring County are up by 547. Think we can blame County for our drop this season.
  10. Yes....but how far can the team realistically take it. ICT fans have been spoilt. For the most part, for the entire history of the club, we have seen progress MOST seasons. But that was mostly when we were a big fish in a little pond. We are now in with the big boys, so people need to be realistic about the aims they set. I think this season is as good a season as we could ever really hope to see. I cant see it getting any better than what we just had.....so.....where do we go from here? When are we going to stop belittling ourselves. In with the big boys? From what I've seen over the last few seasons we are one of the big boys. Barring Celtic we can match any team in the league. The so called big boys like Aberdeen and Dundee United no longer have the funds nor the overdraft facilities to run away from us. We have a squad of players that those teams are envious of. What do I expect for next season? I expect us to compete with all the teams in the league. I expect us to improve on this seasons form against Celtic. I expect us to improve on this seasons goals against tally. I expect us to stay top six. These are my expectations. My wish is two cups and second in league.
  11. Will there be a world cup? With all the protests in Brazil at the moment it's going to be a security nightmare. And probably a few more deaths before the stadia are completed.
  12. Doesn't he have to be an internationalist to gain work permit?
  13. http://www.snp.org/media-centre/news/2014/may/westminster-must-publish-hidden-opinion-poll The sleaze has failed. The lies have failed and now they cant even face the truth.
  14. Not a surprise there Dougie. My old man was a socialist and his before him. Family were all labour supporters. This article http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.heraldscotland.com%2Fcomment%2Fcolumnists%2Flabour-has-lost-sight-of-what-it-stands-for.1399979290&h=QAQH-iaDi in Herald sums up exactly why we should take our own destiny in our own hands.
  15. I would Imagine all the higher ups of subway have the final say 6 figures is alot of advertising for 5 stores! With many franchises you're allowed to use the name provided you dont use it to the detriment of the parent company. So probably dont need a final say from higher ups. 6 figure sum (£100,000) is not actually a lot if said 5 stores are doing good business.
  16. Here's something to ponder. Subway is a franchise so is it Subway that is the sponsor or is it the owner of the three Inverness, one Nairn and one Elgin franchises who is the sponsor but using the Subway logo.
  17. Or maybe its Paul Weller
  18. Eurotunnel?
  19. Falkirk through to face Hamilton so no need to debate Palmerston now.
  20. 3-1 falkirk e.t.
  21. QoS do have plans in place to increase capacity but I'm sure the capacity rule has been scrapped along with the USH rule and grass only rule. As D4.4.3 in Scotty's post says 'adequate winter protection'. That could be covers. Be an interesting Championship next season though, especially if Queens go up. Rangers, Hibs, Hearts, Hamilton and Falkirk are likely to have quite a scrap. My money, assuming they get out of administration in time, is on Hearts. Locke has finally got his young team playing and they could keep up the momentum. Butcher will then be somewhere like Fleetwood. McCoist will have a breakdown and Rangers implode.
  22. I know what it is in the UK Oddquine. I dont know how it is for people living abroad who probably never paid the full amount into UK pension.
  23. Is the amount of pension based on what you paid into it?
  24. Nick is one of the most frustrating players I've watched over the last few seasons. I've great respect for the lad but sometimes he just isn't suited to the game he's playing. Is he one of those who only excels against certain teams. He may get pushed of the ball many times but then he'll put in a fantastic cross. As to the substitution, I'm sure Nick knows the reason for not starting and the reason for coming on in the last minute. This is a team sport and Nick is a team player so why should it bother him?
