The Famous Caley Animals (by "Mouse")


NORMAN GORDON

"He loved to sing he loved to fight." Stormin Norman, the supreme animal's finest moment was, when leaving Telford St 10 mins before the end of a home game with Thistle, he kicked two old age pensioners in a fit of rage at Caley being 2-0 down. Caley, of course, equalised with 2 goals in the last 2 minutes thereby denying the scum of an unheard of win at the stadium. The news reached Norman, who whooping with delight, ran back down the street, kissed the pensioners and took them for a drink!

ROGER MACDONALD

Unfortunately died in action but doing what he loved best - shouting abuse at other supporters before falling out of a train. Finest moment was Rogers piano efforts inthe Fife Arms Hotel in McDuff following Caley's 4-0 title clincher at Peterhead. Once woke up with the signs "Kenneth Street" and "Bed and Breakfast" at the bottom of his bed following a cup final celebration.

ROD MACDONALD (ROD THE MOD)

Notorious in the 70's for walking on the pitch and decking referees for having the audacity to give decisions against Caley. Rod was subsequently banned from Telford St. Not do be outdone, however, Rod became a master of disguises in getting into the ground. Unfortunately Rod's excitement usually got the better of him and he rarely lasted the 90 mins before being discovered and ejected.

ROBERT MACKENZIE (KENZERS)

Arguably Caley's most argumentative supporter ! Wanted Alex Main sacked for failing to get Caley into Europe. Boycotted Telford St for a year "Cos they cut the fucking trees down" Once spent the entire 2nd half at Alloa running alongside and keeping up with the linesman explaining the rule that "hand ball is a fucking penalty"

JOHN DUNCAN

Tipsy John's 9.00 am kick off in the Gellions often led him to enquire what the score was about 1 hour before the kick off. Some fans ambition is to go to every ground in the country, John's mission was to get refused entry to every ground i.e. St Mirren, Stirling, even Kingsmills. Finest moment was being hauled into a police car outside Kingsmills, insisting on his sobriety, wearing a blue nose

COLIN ARNOTT

Undeniably Caley's most vociferous supporter. Acquired the art of antagonising the opposition to perfection. Influenced referees decisions on his own. However, disgraced himself and astonished fellow Howden Enders with his decision to vote for the bastard merger. Should be shot.

GRAHAM MUNRO

Caley's anorak (X Large) supporter when Rangers weren't playing. Author of the most stupid football quiz trivia imaginable. Look of permanent confusion ever since Rangers signed Mo Johnston. Once scored with a woman called sausage.

DAVE MACKAY

A black Isle fashion icon !! A constant source of annoyance to fellow Howden Enders by getting the early morning ferry on a Saturday and waking us up while we still had hangovers. Mr Mackay went missing from Telford St for about 7 years when his beloved Dunfermline rose from the ashes or was he in Dingwall ?? Soon came crawling back when Caley constantly got further in the Scottish Cup. Became a Black Isle celebrity when he was the 1st person to bring decimal money to his village in the late Eighties.
