Hear the Noise: Dunfermline 0-1 Caley
By: Ian Rose | August 9th, 2009What players, coaches, pundits and the rest are saying about Caley’s 0-1 season opening win at Dunfermline: (You may notice these posts are a lot shorter than they used to be … life in the lower divisions means a lot fewer people talking about you …)
“Great day, good game, perfect result. “
– Caley Stan, on Caleythistleonline forums
“Maybe the bandage is a lucky omen. I’ll wear it next week and if I get another goal I’ll keep it on for the rest of the season!”
– Goalscorer Lee Cox, on the bandage he wore during the match for a minor hand injury
“It was tough on the Pars, who had dominated the second half, with Willie Gibson and Steven Bell going close before Andy Kirk hit the post with a terrific turn and shot.”
- BBC Sportsound at full time
“Roared on by a noisy Thistle support, Terry Butcher’s men went for the jugular with some fast free-flowing football.”
– Ewan Smith, The Sunday Mail
“Butcher’s boys had been battered, almost to a pulp, by Dunfermline, but a minute into time added on for stoppages at the end of the game, up popped Lee Cox to volley home a shot from the edge of the penalty area to steal all three points for the Highlanders.”
– Billy Hamiton, The Herald
… and, a random mention – maybe we can do some recruiting from disillusioned fans of other sides …
“I have followed NCFC for 55 years through thick and thin. I managed to get to a radio for the half time score, only to have the breath completely knocked out of me, leaving me totally stunned. RIP Canaries. Anyone know the way to Inverness Caledonian Thistle?”
– Norwich City fan Denis Pye, speaking to edp24
