  1. Hmm, not showing up here either. Sometimes the links show up a bit late when they're covering an earlier game, hope that's all it is.
  2. Teams: Motherwell: Randolph, Saunders, Craigan, Reynolds, Hammell, Humphrey, Jennings, Hateley, Murphy, Blackman, Gow. Subs: Hollis, Sutton, McHugh, Fitzpatrick, Forbes, Page, Casagolda. St Mirren take on Motherwell with the following line-up: Samson, McAusland, Potter, McGregor, van Zanten, Cregg, McLean, Travner, McGowan, Higdon, Wardlaw. Subs: Gallacher, Barron, Thomson, Robb, Lynch, Mooy, Lamont.
  3. I suppose the question is, what would overseas folk want from such a club? IIRC Andy used to send out newsletters, and ran a Yahoo mailing list for us, and would organise a stadium tours for us if we were visiting. But the newsletters became largely obsolete when most of us got internet access, and likewise the mailing list when forums like this one took off. What else would be of benefit to overseas members? Except Motherwell TV of course
  4. To be fair, you could say that about any of the towns I've lived. If you have even a passing interest in football, you're probably going to know if there's a major club in your own town. I'd say in this day and age, most non-regulars who are interested in going to a game are likely to check the club website first for all the information they need, so it's vital that it's easy to navigate and up-to-date, something which hasn't always been the case in the past.
  5. AndyP used to run an (unofficial) Motherwell Exiles Club...
  6. Certainly like the idea, "mfcbay_officially_motherwell_fc_site" seems like a bit of an unnecessary mouthful though.
  7. And neither, to be fair, do the broadsheets. They all have their own political and, to a lesser extent, sporting biases. None of them have a 'duty' to do anything, they're all just in business to make money.
  8. If St Mirren set out to defend like they did against Celtic yesterday, we'll struggle, as we've shown time and again that we can't break down that sort of team. If they go out to win, which you'd hope they would at home, we're bound to catch them on the break a few times, and then it's just a matter of whether our strikers are having one of their good days or one of their off-days.
  9. If lack of Scotland call-ups is going to affect their motivation to play for Motherwell, I wouldn't want them around anyway. We pay their wages; if they're not giving 100% every week because they're annoyed with the Scotland manager, I'd rather they went and be annoyed somewhere else.
  10. Yes, because you can bet your arse that whoever beat us to the place would have been on the wrong end of just as many diddy decisions over the course of the season.
  11. Reynolds would have hee haw chance of getting in the Republic of Ireland team anytime soon, they have plenty of decent defenders to choose from already. He'd be well advised to keep doing what he's doing and hope Levein doesn't last very long.
  12. Everyone in the game already knows that when a manager says that about a ref, what they're really saying is "everyone can see the ref made a howler but I'm not allowed to say so". Not sure that explicitly berating them would really add much to that sentiment.

    Offside?

    Poor offside decisions are certainly more annoying when they happen beside a big white line that's been painted on the pitch to give the linesman a clue. Can't see much point in moaning about it now, though.
  14. Only if you're a masochist, much easier doing it on a laptop with a proper keyboard...
  15. If the BBC stats are to be believed, they had a good deal more: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/s...rem/9172885.stm
  16. Nope. BBC website said Hearts v Celtic highlights are up at midnight, but others tomorrow.
  17. True, but as long as we win tonight, it's not that bad either and still funny
  18. Tsk, stepped out to make coffee and missed another goal
  19. Once again I tune in late, and once again we've already scored!
