  1. Thats down to the new guy as well. He looked at the equipment he had inherited, got rid of what he thought was unnecessary and used the budget that this made available to him to bring in what he thought would let him do a better job.
  2. Considering how many of them there are, theyd be as well just seeing if they could get a lift on the team bus.
  3. Thats Tom Aldred here... http://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/2018/01/16/tom-aldred-joins-on-loan/
  4. Not a player, I know, but I always gad a faint suspicion that Jock Wallace may have had a wee leaning towards Rangers.
  5. They can play for our 20s at any time during a development loan as long as it doesn't clash with a game for their loan club (hence why Celtic often play our 20s on a Friday so we can't use our loaned-out players if they have a game less than 24 hours later for their loan club's first team). If we want them to come back and be part of our first team match day squad, we have to formally recall them, if the contract allows.
  6. And also in the Centenary Suite. At the very least, if we are going to sell hospitality to opposition fans, and especially those as arrogant as they are, they should be reminded that they will be sitting among the home support and need to tailor their behaviour accordingly. Sitting beside and in front of several of them last night, we were subjected to them shouting their team on constantly and celebrating a penalty won by one diving cheating fanny and scored by another as if they had just beaten Barcelona, jumping around and roaring without caring who they were amongst. With their customary arrogance, they blithely ignored anything shouted at them to remember where they were, and one of them even offered a square go to a Well fan who told them what he thought as he was leaving with his kids. Typical of them, but at the very least more needs to be done with stewarding if we are to sell to them in future.
  7. Or, as we can now lovingly refer to him, our Spanish import, El Bowman.
  8. They are the poster boys for our problems in Scottish society, and they make sure they profit from that to the full.
  9. Just for accuracy, I believe the collect term in their case is "batter them".
  10. On the main rugby pitch at Dalziel Park - the one with the stand, beside the astro.
  11. Don't worry, his family are exactly the sort of people to keep him grounded. Lovely people with a realistic outlook and values. Just the sort of backing you need for a young player.
  12. You're either shocked or that's an advert for a really expensive prostitute.
  13. Wasn't Newell, it was the left wing back.
  14. Andy Devlin Tweeting that Blackburn have made a bid for Heneghan that we are about to reject.
  15. WishyWell jnr only got a family vote for his debut. The rest of the time he'll have to earn it
  16. The club bus is definitely cancelled. I had booked seats on it but got an email to say that they hadn't had enough of a response so had to cancel it.
  17. Yes, unfortunately so. I got a decent deal to take a car-load on the ferry, but it would have been far easier to sit back and let a bus driver do the driving.
  18. Bus cancelled due to lack of numbers.
  19. Indeed. Though if we want to be totally accurate, it should be re-sign.
  20. Looking back to when my boys were that age, and I guess it would be much the same now, if anyone is outstanding at our community side then it is almost certain that they will also be playing boys club football and will have been noticed there already by our scouts (and those of other clubs). That is not to say that the occasional one is not noticed at a the weekly community sessions or holiday courses and picked up from there on the recommendation of a community coach (I know of at least one who was), but that is very rare - almost all boys who are signed pro-youth are scouted from boys clubs or picked up after being dropped from other pro-youth teams.
