    Magic post mate. I went a few times when Ken Bates owned them. Used to go to a pub near the ground, had massive thistle flag behind the bar, and it was brilliant. Cant remember the name, but remembered the heavy. I was a daft bairn from England, but they made me feel really welcome.

    Only my opinion but I don’t think a relegation battle with Burnley is a step up

    That's right he could wait it out but the injury may well hamper him and he may get injured again and then where would he be. Every negotiation has plus and minus points attached, as it stands there are probably a couple of suitors for his signature but they will be wary because of the injury and will most likely have other options in the pipeline, he may be fit in next 6 to 8 weeks and pick up where he left off and score a hatfull of goals and leave for next to nothing in January or for free next year. Or it could go tits up and he is left with nowhere to turn. I don't know if his contract is still on the table, if he is turning it down, if ghe club have revised contract or if he wants to stay or go all I am saying is if we get him under contract then it will cost clubs more to buy him if he is still as effective so offering some middle ground may not be a bad idea. It may benefit him or it could benefit the club or maybe it may benefit both who knows.

    My thoughts exactly. Keep him if a low offer comes in. He's a very good player and it's better to have him for another year than let him go for a pittance

    But not an inspiring move for an attacker

    Must have been having a few training sessions at the AOL in readiness for his move. Our coaching staff will be to blame <doh>:emoticon-0136-giggl

    Inverness Caledonian Thistle with one of the great all time sports headlines. John Barnes sacked pretty much straight after.

    Could have been Munns Or maybe the star and garter great pub frequented by the players for years Turned into a bit of. A Celtic bar now but some great vids on you tube when it was a proper Jags pub worth a google Thistle was a great community club Used to drink in a bar called the Doublet in early 80s bloody awful bar but they had a couple of season tickets behind the bar used to share among the locals. Tickets were always brought back. Happy days

    Just watched the highlights from yesterday think we are looking a lot physically stronger than last season Only highlights but first time I’ve seen Hemir. Looks like he’s going to be a real favourite Raw but he was bullying defenders and looks v good with the ball at his feet.

    I personally think Clarke is worth £20M. I wouldn't sell for anything less, as he could be worth even more next season.

    We'd also deny that chance of a club that is a possible competitor for us in the league?

    I was suprised how big the new lads were when i saw the warming up. Hemir is massive, Jobe looks strong and Triantis is as well. And that was without Batth getting on the pitch. We definitely look to have addressed the physicality issue of last season.
