Partick Thistle? Sorry if that's not right, I did do some internet investigation but it seems naebody cares who David Rowson joined for pre-season......

I thought Rowson was a decent utility player for the Dons. We've got better players now, but he did OK. I don't think you can really blame him for moving on, Stoke were a team on the up at the time so it was worth having a crack down south. A shame it didn't work out for him, I always feel sorry for players when their careers go tits up and the end up having to play for teams like Partick Thistle.

It's only to be expected, a relegated team is never going to survive virgo intacta. At least Tango hasn't come in for his annual swoop and De Vries didn't go to another Scottish team. There's a rumour that the tattie-munchers are sniffing round Adam Hammill as well. I still reckon we can do the business next season.

An optimistic Pars fan, whatever next?

We re-signed Owen Morrison too, that could be huge. Yeah, why not be optimistic, I reckon we've still got the best squad in the league. Even without Mason. Bastard.

Morrison did re-sign? Nice one, that could prove crucial indeed. And as bastardesque as Mason is, there's worse places in the SPHell he could have gone.....

On a side note, after reading the latest Programme Monthly, I'm hoping we don't draw Clyde away in any of the cups. Not only do they not bother with a full programme for cup games, they don't issue AT ALL (shudder) for Challenge Cup games. Absolute sacrilege!

You a programme collector, Stichman?

Roll on the new season:
  1. Pre-season starts soon, so i'll see ICT play the mighty Keith, Elgin City and Inverurie Locos
  2. We have an exciting new striker in Dean 'Mini Mac' McDonald, who from YouTube videos looks like an absolutely brilliant signing
  3. I've just managed to get 8 tickets for the France v. Scotland game (in the France end), and by the looks of things there'll be THOUSANDS of Scots in the home end, with what i'm reading on the Tartan Army Messageboard
  4. ICT v. Rangers in the first SPL game of the season. Easy 3 points.

only a month to go, can't wait for the new season! we kicked off proceedings on sat with a thumping 3-0 win over the mighty mildenhall town, now mr quinn has sent the squad off to an army barracks for some team bonding and to get the old fitness levels up.

eagerly anticipating setanta announcing their live blue square premier games coverage, there's a good chance we'll be on the old telly for one of our first two games either at york or home to oxford.

and odd years are shite cos no world cup or euro championships!!! the under 20 world cup just doesnt cut it! wish i could see the copa america mind looks a good tournament!

TAKEN FROM THE DAILY RANGER

FRENCH football bosses face a security nightmare after the Tartan Army invaded their Euro 2008 ticket sales.

The French Federation's website crashed under the strain yesterday morning as Scotland supporters rushed to secure briefs for the Parc des Princes crunch on September 12.

The SFA were given only 3500 tickets at prices of up to £82 to distribute to visiting fans through the official Travel Club.

But it's now estimated there could be up to 15,000 Scots in the ground after tickets for the French end were made freely available online, without restrictions.

A spokeswoman for the French Federation admitted they were unlikely to turn away Scots fans who had booked online, with many ordering up to six tickets each.

Asked if they would be allowed entry, she said: "I guess so - we've had no problems before."


I honestly couldn't believe how easy it was to get 8 tickets, in the home end. I've always wondered what it feels like to be a Rangers or Celtic fan living in Aberdeen or Inverness.... Now i have a slight inclination

I'm not exactly surprised: would you rather spend 40 odd quid for a cheap seat in the away end when you can grab one in the home end for 20 euros?

Hoh hee hoh!

Links Park tomorrow night. I can't wait.
