Gutted, they only sell 20p packs in Dingwall's newsagents.

Maybe we've just now found the reason that McMenamin needs to get paid so much more at County than at Morton, because of the massive extra cost of Space Raiders?

[tbone stag]

That's some nice stalking by VT but rather than his wages, I'm more concerned with what he eats for breakfast.

Not sure, if he gets a packet of crisps with his Subway then how many more packets would he want in a day?

We know for sure that his current earnings are only worth 9,948 packets at a push.

I don't know what's worse. This thread, or McMenamin's goal return so far.

Can see Coco having a field day next Saturday against Queens and picking up his win and goals bonus with ease.

I was never a great fan of him and had my doubts when he joined Queens but that changed and he worked his socks off for us last season and was a player that I hoped would have stayed at Palmerston, but finances dictate and he went to County where he had the best offer. He has bills to pay and his own future to look after so who can blame him for going to where the best money is. Im certain that Colin would still have been at Palmerston if we could have offered him the same terms as County, but thats not how it turned out.
I will be up at Victoria Park next Saturday and certainly wont be giving Colin any stick.

I knew someone in my school year who was so fat he had two footlongs for lunch. True story. And he was ginger, so life dealt him a particularly bad hand.

He eats like a sumo wrestler; he's a walking heart attack in other words.

Coco is giving far better value for money than auld Duggie has got propping up your pathetic joke of a club.

Let's see - no cups, no promotion to the SPL, cost 2.5 million and counting.

Mind you it's kept Crawford occupied I suppose, all those windows to lick clean.

I agree with the sentiment of this. His goals ratio is not as good as it might be but you cannot knock his effort.

He's a Scottish footballer. I assume the answer is "as many more packets as he can fit down his gob in a 24 hour period?"

A Dundee fan commenting on the financial handlings of another club, this is too funny.

Having been in administration yourselves, and currently running a deficit of around 25% of turnover, you are not in much of a position to lecture others either, by your own criteria, although it hasn't stopped you.

Maybe this is an idea for a new low budget , straight to DVD , Scottish film. Greenock cyber geek stalks journeyman footballer online.

[tbone stag]

It would make for quite a good documentary, then at the end of it, they meet up and talk about the situation over a bag of space raiders

with some moving music in the background

WWE films could get involved and John Cena could play Colin McMenamin.

I approve whole-heartedly of this scheme. Its tremendous.

[Sherrif John Bunnell]

Lionel Messi could be paired up with Steven Craig and end up being brought down to his level. Hopefully we will see the beginning of the CAK (Coco and Kurtis) strikeforce this Saturday. I have no doubt that pairing will get five goals each a game.

Get Craig in there and we'll have the CACK attack

Or Craig would bring him up to his level?

some folk talk pish i would take him back to dens the now .he is one player who imo gave 100% everytime he takes to the park.

[ArthurLee]

McMenamin is pish always has been always been, the archetypal "good at a certain level player" the level being the middle of Div 1, just shows how quickly Gretna binned him when they went up.

He was honking on Saturday and you could see him losing rag, I fancied Ross Co as dark horses preseason but having seen them on Sat I think they will struggle to finish in the top half.

Not that I don't disagree with the sentiment behind your post, I just think that it is utterly ridiculous for anyone to say that on the basis of one game a team won't do well.
