  1. A complete waste of space ,
  2. If he had any potential then he would have been playing, he is a useless who we have been wasting money on since the start of the season. Tell him to GTF and free up some cash to spend on players who will actually contribute something to the club. Brown and Knox were stiched up big time when they signed this fud.
  3. Sad news, so soon after the anniversary of Phil's death, condolences to all the family.
  4. Agree with that prediction, McCall will have the team playing again, so hopefully an unchanged side from sunday, my money is on Murphy for the 1st goal
  5. I guess the baw heaters were broken, there will be an enquiry now
  6. The way Motherwells luck goes in cup draws it will be Rangers, then it will be 3 games out of 4 against them 30th Jan, 5th Feb and 12th Feb.
  7. Chris Porter, Ross McCormack or David Clarkson, i would have any of them back in a minute
  8. On the subject of dodgy haircuts, Stuart mcCalls has not changed in the last 20 years
  9. Thanks, he sounds a bit of an Arse
  10. Excuse my ignorance but who is Scott Burns and what does he do ??
  11. He was an arse who lost the dressing room, its ancient history 3 managers ago FFS, get over it and get behind McCall and the team, they have a season to save. mon the well
  12. Casagolda was another Brown investment that we have had feck all return on, its time we chased him as well and freed up the wages to use on a player that actually contributes something to the club .
  13. Thats the problem the clubs are far too dependent on the income from those games and dont want to lose it. Most if not all SPL clubs if they were ordinary businesses would have closed down years ago as they are not financially viable. They are paying way too much of their annual turnover on players wages, at some clubs it 85% to 90% of their annual income !!! All the TV money has done is fund ridiculous wages for average players, so its no surprise that clubs want as much cash as they can get. The situation is too far gone to change, you cant just cut wages overnight, you would have no players left. There needs to be wage caps put in place and clubs forced to gradually reduce their expenditure till they are financially stable and able to live within their means, ie financing all expenditure from ticket sales, merchandise, hospitallity and catering, advertising etc. Any TV money would then be a bonus which could be used to lower ticket prices, attract more fans which in the long run would earn you more money. Simples
  14. Totally agree he wont be missed, just off to the bookies for the odds on Blackman as first goal scorer when we go to Pitoddrie on 15th Feb
  15. Why does it seem that nobody wants to come to play their footie at motherwell, all we seem to get in the press are stories about who will be leaving Fir Park. But will it really make a difference if some of the players go this transfer window, i dont think so. Blackman - Scored a few goals and played well Sept, Oct but has not been interested since we would not have been keeping him long term so if he wants to go let him. Gow - He has been found out at every club he has played for, done nothing in his time so far at Fir Park, he wont be missed. Fitzpatrick - The last meaningful thing he done was scoring the winner at Tyncastle in the CIS semi in 2005 !! so again he would not be missed. We have no money to spend so McCall should be giving the younger players a chance, McHugh, Paige, Forbes, Meechan etc. The real problems start in the summer as we need to be thinking about a new defence, Reynolds will be away and Craggs is past his sell by date, Hammell has been crap this season but he still has a few seasons in him. So McCall has his work cut out to try to bring in 2 maybye 3 experienced players, Defence, MID and up front to work with and bring on the younger players, if we can get the balance right we have the makings of a reasonablke team that could be together for a few seasons.
  16. another 6 years watching that, are you on drugs or just mental ?

    Scottish Fitba

    A 10 team SPL is bollocks but the Turkeys wont vote for christmas and change to 16 teams, they wany the extra income that 8 games against the old firm generates. Sky will put some extra cash in as there will be 4 old firm ties to cover and the ugly sisters will get a few extra quid. So the whole thing is nothing to do with improving the game in Scotland its about extra money for the clubs, SPL, SFL etc. SPL 1 and 2 its a joke, will any of the clubs in the top half of div 1 who will make up the bulk of the SPL 2 be wanting to spend lots of cash to bring their grounds up to SPL standards ? i think not. They have tried a 10 team set up in the past and it did not work, now we are going back to it as the solution to all the games problems you could not make it up.
  18. Why all the negative predictions, we will win, i cant see it being a classic but i think we will be too strong for them, i am going for 2-0 to the well. Dundee are playing well few clean sheets but the standard in Div 1 is not as good as the SPL so you cant compare like for like, would they have had 5 clean sheets in a row playing Hearts, St Johnstone, Aberdeen, Rangers etc i think not. We have a tough January and Feb that will make or break our season and this is the game to get the momentum started with a good win. mon the Well
  19. Keevins is a whinging little :wank: who will make up stories to suit himself, but if it is true why worry the goal machine that is Casagolda will do the Business
  20. Definitely next season, i think we are going to see the VAT increase as well as any increase the Club makes going on to the season book prices and individual match tickets. As well as that Pies, programs, Bovril etc will all go up as well, so much for trying to encourage fans to come back to games
  21. If He does go it will be a certainty that he will score a couple against us when we play them up there in a few weeks, thats the way our luck goes. Wonder what the pre match odds on him as first goal scorer are, Jenno will know
  22. Fair point, its everyones right to choose but steelmen or dossers we all support the same team. mon the well
  23. Do any of the Dosser clan really want to be describing themselves as workshy, benefit cheating, rough sleeping hobo's as that's what the term means. dosser2n 1. Brit slang a person who sleeps in dosshouses2. (Social Welfare) Brit slang another word for dosshouse3. Slang a lazy person; idlerhc_dict()Collins English Dictionary – Complete and Unabridged © HarperCollins Publishers 1991, 1994, 1998, 2000, 2003 ThesaurusLegend: Synonyms Related Words AntonymsNoun1.dosser - someone who sleeps in any convenient place street personhobo, tramp, bum - a disreputable vagrant; "a homeless tramp"; "he tried to help the really down-and-out bums"wn()Based on WordNet 3.0, Farlex clipart collection. © 2003-2008 Princeton University, Farlex Inc. The nickname is more suited to the Green half of the ugly sisters in Glasgow. We are Motherwell, We are the Steelmen
  24. Is that a description of yourself as a dosser, or did you mean to add something meaningful to it. Steelmen rule
  25. The number of good stands we have is irrelevant, the problem is that the site is not suited for a modern football stadium, and there is little or no scope for redevelopment. It would be a wast of money trying to patch up the East and POD stands, the more cost effective option is to relocate to a new purpose built stadium. The club could then get a stadium that was up to 21st century standards, good transport links, car parking etc, as well as being able to be used on non match days for various other business activities to bring in extra money. Look at the new grounds that have been built in recent years and learn from the mistakes made, ie not filling the corners in and we could have a 10k seat stradium to be proud of. So sell FP and get moving to a new home, maybe the " Ravenscraig Arena"
