Great Balls of Shire

Re Stam , talent without hard work is no use in a Motherwell team...I dont think he is a particularly good player either so yep, I would ship him first chance

Actually ive ended up agreeing with you re " the bois" and the never ending fines but I won't make a habit of it

On second thoughts was it Kim Wilde?

If the " bois" are such a small number then not many will be getting offended by being misrepresented. It's all a bit pointless who is in the bois and who isn't...if you're damaging other people's stuff, dont...that includes mfc' s property and applies if you're 16 or 61.

Make that 2 posters who look for a reaction

Probably Oscar Wilde who said, " I would rather be quiet and be thought of as a fool than open my mouth and confirm it" I accept that's not great for a fans forum but social media is full of people with little knowledge of a subject and offering opinion. It honestly doesn't add much to a debate if the opinions dont have any substance but are just looking for a reaction. Theres probably only one on here who is consistently doing that, some people might see him/ her as a character...I don't, but that's just my opinion.

So , that's a long winded way of saying you dont have enough knowledge for an opinion but here's mine anyway...most people would just say nothing.

Alf doesn't seem the kind of manager who would alienate players like that

Yep, that would have gone well, Booth and Ross v Geeman internationals...id much rather have a go in Europe than the LC. Unfortunately you're entitled to your opinion.

Mjc thrives on getting bites , wouldn't put much stock on anything he posts .

The goal v hibs and goal on Thursday? If that's not playing out from the back, what is? I think , even with Slatts,Just and Watt, we would have lost on Thursday. You got to have the ball to keep it , Freiburg just different level.

I think I mentioned this before, all the homegrown guys seem to want to be midfielders, dont seem to get any 6ft2 ch or fwds coming through, not in MfC youth set up anyway

I know we got some favourable draws in first two rounds but this was the hardest of all the Scots teams, I think we could've done something v the other 3.

Im sure he will have social media and be a star for a day

...Just walk to park and dont throw fn bottles applies to both sets then the much maligned police dont need to get involved

Nah, it was a free kick, pen was a dive though

Just watched pen on TV, think big Moorman is the pick of the signings so far but he did put his hands on him , a dive but I would've taken it up the other end..he will have a great season though.

Genuine question, I take it that'll be another fine for the wee c.c.c character who came on pitch? They can't let the players / fans have their moment, they've got to be the " stars" of the show.

I waa hoping/ thinking that we won't lose many goals this season based on what ive seen so far . Obviously we lost 2 goals from set pieces last night but im wondering if that's just down to their delivery etc. I haven't seen enough of Celtic so far this season but I dont see anyone apart from them to get too worried about. Hoping for another good season, definitely fancy us for top 6 and hopefully as good as 4th again. I think Scottish teams lose a Euro spot this season so will be tougher to qualify but fingers crossed.

The reasons it wasn't worth risking these players has been listed numerous times, so wont list them again, you dont need to agree but its well wide of the mark to say there were " no reasons"

As you say He didn't give up one cup for the other, his hand was forced. Some fans dont want to see the reasons, just want someone to blame. Like them we are disappointed too but acknowledge the situation.

Jba team didn't set the Heather on fire initially , we have lost 3 top players from our midfield so does anyone really think we should be as good as the team that finished last year. I dont think we will lose many goals next year so that may balance the loss of our midfield. Some Fitba fans love to catastrophise as well as be unrealistic

I dont think up until the last few years I appreciated how much of a leveller a plastic pitch was..the one on Sunday was the worst ive seen and shouldn't be allowed at senior level...good luck to Stenny , use everything to your advantage

Yep, me too but lets be honest, that came out of nowhere a bit too, so you never know. That was back when it was 11 Scots v 11 Scots mostly , the Glasgow crowd have got it so sewn up now. Maybe last year was our chance , you've got me agreeing with you now but Jens didn't do much wrong. Swings and roundabouts innit.?

Every club is a selling club but the players have to be good enough..no way we could've held onto just , watt or slattery they were too good. However we need money to tempt these guys in first place. This Euro run will get us a few bodies in, im sure. Anyway here's hoping for better run in Scottish Cup, might not be as congested a period in January and players back
