Tactics were not the problem last night....players having a pish poor game and not playing their best on the night was.

Dont agree with that, for me Levante did not look any better than a top half SPL side who we face week in week out, they were ordinary. We gifted them 2 goals and created nothing against them so they were not stretched, Motherwell needed to be at their best last night and we were not. The Levante front players did not look anything out of the ordinary ability wise but they had a bit of pace which when the ball went over the top as it did frequently, they were creating chances from it and turning our defence. We had Higdon as the target while he has scored a few goals, he is a slow as a week in the Jail. We spent large parts of the game last night playing the ball across the middle of the park and back and forward from defence to midfield and going nowhere, the Levante players were just sitting back and enjoying the break. Levante were there for the taking last night and we fecked up yet again, ( AS Nancy, Odense, Levante ) its a familiar story.

Adam Cummins for me, thought he was outstanding last night, he looks a real prospect. As for Hatley and Lasley they were pish an absolute nightmare for the 2 of them

His work rate is good and he will chase down everything but he is a greedy wee shite, he wants to try to score every time he is heading for goal, which is not a bad thing and being honest if he did we would not be having this debate. But the problem for me is that he needs to look up now and again and realise that sometimes there are other players better placed than him to score or continue the move. I like his style and application and i think that he is an assest to the team, but thats the problem he needs to familiarise himself with the concept of a team and pass the ball more often.

Any suggestions for the best place for the Well fans to meet up in Valencia next Thursday...Bars..main squares, public fountains etc

I am currently paying £380 a year plus extra for catering etc to pay players wages...its called a season ticket. As for the original idea no.. its daft

I think that as well...as i understand it if you are a free agent, you can be signed at any time, can anybody confirm this ?

To be fair they took £8 for the 10 euro Panathinikos tickets so hopefully they will do the same again and charge the sterling equivilent, probably £29 but expecting to pay £30. Edit - its official tickets will be £28

You would think that McFadden would be keen to get back playing competetive football again..and get himself in the shop window. Any offer he gets is better than the one he currently has ie Feck All, but he is obviously chasing the Cash... its dissapointing.

Away tickets are on sale...all tickets €35 3,5 times the cost of the CL away tickets ffs

WTF !!!

They look cool ...the shop should sell them, couple on my deck would look good

Motherwell dont have the depth of squad to be able to drop players like Ojamma...you dont have to score lots of Goals to be a good player and have a big influence on games, his pace and movement creates lots of chances for others to convert. Granted he can be a bit greedy at times when there is a better option available, but he carries a threat and therefore he should be one of the 1st names on the team sheet.

We are booked into Olympia for the Thursday night ..it looks ok..close to stadium and metro (10 mins to city centre)

Sorry to be pedantic but UEFA are correct, there are 24 hrs in each day, so using the 24 hr clock to avoid am/pm confusion 24:00 hrs is perfectly valid.

we are coming back on fri from Barcelona - Prestwick with Ryanair £49 14:25 flight

Travel sorted,3 of us getting bus from Glasgow to manchester airport on wed night for 8am Monarch flight to Barcelona..in at 11:20 then pick up hire car for drive to Valencia..in about 3pm. Coming home Fri afternoon Barca - Prestwick, all for £122 each. So adding 1 night hotel and petrol etc should total about £160...

Just got back...absolute cracking away trip...decent weather.cheap beer and great banter..we were outclassed over 2 legs but who cares....champions league we had a laugh

See you at Prestwick Tues morning...i am on the same flight...bring it on

culture is overated...what have the Greeks ever done for us

Just got my tickets £8 for a CL game is excellent..we are in section 20 top tier so should have a decent view of the game..bring it on

Lets be honest the east stand is a shit hole that should have been demolished years ago, its not fit for purpose anymore. But until we move from Fir park to a new stadium, or knock it down and replace it we have to live with it. How many times in a season will there be long queues to get in to a game, unless we get to the CL or EL group stages i suspect that last night will be the 1 and only time. We have to live with the fact that Fir Park is in the middle of a residential area, so you can't just randomly close roads etc to allow people to Q, so until we have a shiny new football stadium at the Craig, just turn up a bit earlier... Simples

you really are a fud considering Boumsong missed the ball completly.

I was proud of every player in the team last night, we played really well and created lots of chances against a good Panathinikos side, who in truth are a lot better than us. Every player put in a great shift, and with a bit more composure in front of goal we would have scored at least 1 (Ojamma not looking up and playing Murphy in was the best of them). It was our champions league debut and we made a very good experienced European team look ordinary, its only half time and we are 2 down, so anything is possible. Panathinikos will consider it as job done, but if we can score 1st in Athens then its game on, we showed last night that we can create oportunities against them, lets live the dream and believe.

You might get away with that one mate, just seems to be Red and white that puts them over the edge, so no accies or Aberdeen tops
