Fantastic! Recognition for Charlie and Donald Park, both Highland boys and well deserving of this award. If we can only improve our home form to the standard of our away form, we might be on for a place in Europe this season!!!

We met a couple of Brøndby supporters at Farum Park a few pre seasons ago, when we thrashed FC Nordsjaelland 1-0 to win our first ever match in Europe. :) :) :) I gave one of them my saltire. That was a amazing day, the Danes do football really well - sunshine, free entry, pints of beer in 5 pint carriers, what more could you ask for? Fantastic :)

I put a tour report with photos up here -

that was a funny read and some nice photos, thanks and nice write up, you've just got my wondering which one of those lovely people you are actually are :p

i agree with charlie christie and his number 2 deserving some recognition, i hope you guys can keep a hold of your manager this team, you always seem to, no matter what is thrown at you (pele, robbo, brewster.. leaving for their teams they made their name at) pick yourselves up and keep it together,

i was at the inverness vs hibs game on boxing day last year in inverness and i've got to say (despite the 20 quid entrance fee) it was one of the most enjoyable games i've been too, the riordan chants alone made it worthwhile :D not to mention the home fans behind the goal mouth banging their fists and singing, and two good goals, but bloody freezing!! haha

i hope he stays around for awhile (and likely will, having played for inverness and not made his name elsewhere like thsoe before him) and some cash is injected into the club to step it up into the next gear, caley thistle 4 europe! :D

Charlie is very well aware of "The Highland Curse" which seems to befall all our previous managers :D

I was there too, you're right, it was baltic, almost as chilly as Pittodrie :)

You're obviously highly intelligent and very attractive too no doubt :)

I'd say Christie is a dead cert' to remain at Thistle. He's one of them through and through. They've done a grand job in choosing a manager for the long run.

Slightly off topic, but occasionally on forums there are Celtic fans come on and say 'well done, good to see an ex-celt managing a ICT successfully'. He was, but they didn't acknowledge him when he played for them, so why now.. (most recent was Thistle's win against Glasgae Rangers)

I love the fact that ICT are where they are, it's very refreshing to see :D

Agreed, Charlie couldnt get a game for Celtic reserves, he was the Derek Riordan of his day :D Ex Celt my erse!
