Yes, will the paperwork go through in time for him to play on Saturday, and what is the likelihood that he will score?? :D
-
That wasn't a red card, yellow at most. Absurd decision.
-
bollix, we could have killed this match in the first half.
-
Thanks for the Zattoo link, Scotty, working a treat. What a performance, Robbo reckons it is the best 45 min under Butcher by a long way. Certainly looks like it. Looks like the good old Caley Thistle (apart from that naff strip) - keep that pressure up, don't sit back, we could be 3 or 4 up.

Butcher's aftermatch comments in the NOTW
The Long Man replied to caleyrule's topic in Caley Thistle
Butcher's being found out, and he knows it. That's why is he is trying to deflect blame on to his own players, while conveniently forgetting it's his team and his tactics. -
"I've had enough with one or two people in particular" sayz Terry. Aye, so have we - with Butcher and Malpas. The players you're so keen to blame are your choices.
-
'What we have' is a result of Butcher and Malpas' choices and decisions, acting as if Butcher is somehow 'let down' by the players and tactics he is responsible for doesn't make sense, it just makes excuses.
-
Butcher is mince. I think he's actually worse than Brew. Of course he won't be sacked, but I am counting the days until he goes, hopefully at the end of the season, and we can get a manager who understands how to organise a team, and who can sign decent up and coming players who won't be commuting from England.

Charles, I realise you are not up to speed with modern life, but can you really not get some of those supposedly bright students of yours to help you sell it to the diaspora?

Looking forward to this, but not a very good advert for the IRA if none of your pupils is capable of setting up a simple website with a Paypal or equivalent option. Postal orders? Are you sure they still exist in the age of electronic money? Tsk, are you still teaching them with slates and inkwells? Nostalgia is one thing, but I didn't realise you actually teach it
-
Which makes you wonder how good his judgement is. Are we getting the Motherwell Butcher or the Brentford one? It's not just the team who have to knuckle down and start showing us what they are worth.

I mind the Milkman with his horse, was it Farmer's Dairy, who had stables down by the old Academy Playing Fields? I remember one morning my Dad urging me to run out and ask the milkman what the score was the previous night, when Caley had played Hearts. News wasn't the instant commodity it is now, and we certainly didn't have a telephone. Anyway, I ran across the street and asked with baited breath, "Do you know what the score was last night at the Caley match?" "Aye, 6-0 to Hearts" Dad was nonplussed. I don't think he was expecting a shock upset.

Maybe you should get off yer feckin high horse. It's boring. You want to blame the board for everything Brewster did, yet magically it is not to their credit that they acted, signed 7 players and got a better manager in. It was all down to you, apparently. Well done.
-
Well said, sir
-
How great to have a manager with some communication skills for a change. Humour and analysis. Now if he can carry that attitude into work, it can only benefit the team. Good to hear him sound positive. If we could get some points early in his new job, then I think we have a good fighting chance.
-
too right. i see the moaners have already started up, before the guy's in the job.
-
This is 100% correct, except it is Sutton and Knox. From a member of the Heathmount Mafia in exile. Which is nice. What's nice? being in exile from the Heathmount, or having Suttnknox, which sounds like it could be itchy.
-
Word is it's Knox and Sutton for def.

One of the question marks over Robbo is his management of Livingstone - didn't he do rather badly there, and if he was such a great option, shouldn't he have been able to do better? I don't know about it in detail, but I don't remember it as a glowing success.
-
Ossie is a circus stunt. He was a terrible manager for Spurs, and has gone downhill ever since. He knows nothing about ICT or the SPL. If he didn't manage to keep us up, which I doubt he would, he would be off quick as a flash. It's just not a serious option, but a nice little media stunt for him. don't touch him with a bargepole.
-
Ha, one in the eye for the serial moaners!

Well done Brew and the boys
