I got the same info from the official ICT site. Theres always someone complaining about the lack of info from the club yet they never seem to look in the right place for the info.

Agree Scotty. Why does everyone harp on about only two signings. Truth is we signed seven. Five from the youths, who have all shown a great deal of promise. What does it do for their confidence if the fans refuse to acknowledge them.

The main bulk of the ICT pre-season budget went on the Italy trip, where we did play a couple of games against decent opposition. The reason, I believe, why we have not got a game against a bigger team, and why all our games are away, is to allow the ICT pitch to recover fully from being covered over with boards etc for Elton. Bear in mind also that we were invited to play in two testimonials and duly obliged so things had to be planned around that. I hope the players concerned managed to make a few quid out of it.

New team, new songs, new tunes.

When they get the iron-on 'flybe' logo's made to cover over 'onetouch' on the existing stock :tic01:

I stand corrected then. However, at Elgin I'm the first team regulars had their squad numbers. i.e Bazz, Caff, Denzil etc.

Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here but dont the squad players carry their squad number. If thats the case then Hastings was 16. No 4 is a spare number so was probably carried by one of the triallists. A couple of the papers have the Man U triallist as the penalty scorer but the official ICT site has Wood who's squad number is 22. Kerrs squad number is 26.

Agree with that CD. My interpretation is that Blackie is saying what all the squad are probably thinking and that is: if we put in the work ethic, and with a big name player on board, we can show the board and the fans that we can all deliver and reap the rewards. I'm sure signings like Marius will boost the gate reciepts, get us higher up the table and better cup runs and, ultimately, boost the funds available to reward all those who put in the effort. Every player at this club knows that, if they were somewhere else, there will be big differences the earnings of each individual. They also know that the higher earners have to justify what they get and work harder to maintain their place in the team.

He's not on £4k. Thats what he asked for initially but when he realised the club couldn't make that he agreed a much less figure. His salary is in line with the other top earners at the club though he is being topped up by sponsorship. Apparantly the suns unrest in the camp story is a load of sh!te. Most players will realise that if they can develop to the same potential their earnings will be boosted. So what Marius is getting should be incentive to others. Incidently he will be the first Romanian to play for a Scottish team. Prodan never got a game, nor even a shot of the bench, at Rangers.

Nothing bigotted, sexist, racsist, homophobic or any other ist or ic. If you need to be totally clean then sub fcuk for something else.

Just a thought Scotty, is the blocking of broadcasting/streaming in N America to do with the companies concerned in the UK or is it NA broadcasters causing the problem?

Song v St Mirren We know that you've left us Though why we do not know Guess you had your reason But now we've got Deano So for ninety odd minutes We'll be taking the p!ss oot o' Dargo Ninety odd minutes just waiting for a chance When ere he's on the ball He will hear the whole stand chant So for ninety odd minutes We'll be taking the p!ss oot o Dargo Dargo!! Dargo!! Who the fcuk is Dargo

Should be good for overseas people but I dont see it being any different at home. BBC will still broadcast the live matches within each of their radio regions, as is at present, and they may broadcast highlights on tv but Setanta still retain the rights to live tv broadcasting.

Is it a handbag if worn over the shoulder??

In case you haven't noticed my statement was intended to be in the present. Not the past. We have signed four youths to the first team. We have signed Cowie, Nicolae and McDonald. We have three others on trial and could sign at least two of them. All are bringing in excellent qualities. Its not all about signing highly rated individuals, its more about getting a team to perform as one unit. From what I've seen and read I believe we do have that right blend. I am under no illusions. I dont believe either us or another nine teams in this league will finish in the top two as regularly as the glasgow twins. But I do believe we can compete on a par with the likes of Kilmarnock, Hibs and Aberdeen.

SP said: Most younger immigrants to this country learn English but many , many, immigrants get stuck in ethnic enclaves where not a word of English is spoken. Are Quebecies classed as ethnic. a state where english is more or less banned and french is the norm?

After watching Wyness at Bourough Brigs I dont think he's ready for a start just yet. Got the feeling he was holding back a bit. Perhaps still nervous of further injury to his shoulder. Bayne as the holding player with Sutherland making the runs could be an option.

What about all the ICT players that have Bebo pages? :004: A few youngsters, Baz and Caff.............................and dont forget all the elderly fans RiG

To be honest I dont think there's a player out there who, as an individual, would fit in with team ethos at ICT. Other than those who have been here before. I believe we have, with those who will come in, the right blend of skills and quality, youth and experience all round. What has top be done is to work on getting the best out of them in every game. Hopefully this season will see success both home and away.

Yesterday night they were in some white training top with no badge on the front. The white top had the ICT crest and Flybe on it. Going by what TCF says....blue, red then white I'd go for all black tonight.
