I actually think that signing Craig Samson was a clever move by the club. Twardzik has not really been up to much since he signed on. Ripley could be away in january so to negate the risk of potentially having Twardzik as our only choice of keeper - we now have a decent keeper with a bit of experience who can keep these guys on their toes. Also all these people claiming we are throwing money away and we can't afford him. We know fuck all about the financial setup with regards to signings so there is no point speculating about it.

Only been to the Dundee Utd game this season so not really in any position to comment, but is the fact we are missing Pearson really affecting us? I get the feeling he is the man who this whole team was built round and him getting injured has scunnered us a bit.

Sorry I meant the BBC website? They used to have the highlights on the site, but they seem to have vanished.

Are the BBC still showing highlights of spl games?

Is it constantly kept up to date? I remember they did yearly patches and stuff like that. If its kept up to date then yes its a good search tool, but surely they are not relying on the ratings for players - as again these would fluctuate massively.

Utterly amazed at these football manager revelations! Bonkers does not even come close!

Anthony Stokes..........worth a punt?

GET IN THE FUCKING SEA.

Don't what all this panicking is about. We were the better side against Dundee Utd and we're just unlucky that day. Aberdeen beat us but they are pretty good these days, beaten by hearts at tune castle - again no surprise. St Johnstone could be looked as a bad result, but again sounds like we had chances. We then win two on the bounce and by the sounds of it were far better than Killie. Need to give the guy the season. I'm convinced we have the players to be a decent top six team. Also lets not forget two first choice players have been out for most of the season so far.

How long is fletcher out for?

See if you add up all the lines and work out the rough direction. Do you know where it's goes? INTO THE FUCKING SEA.

Love it. Lets drop Lasley who has been our best player so far this season with a guy we have just signed and nobody has ever seen kick a ball!! Also lets just disregard the fact Lasley is the club captain and no doubt motivates those around him on the pitch and behind the scenes. Bat shit crazy.

I think this will be a tough game for most SPL sides this year. Hearts at home are excellent. They are a very good team as shown by romping the Championship. Actually I would not be suprised at all if Hearts finished in the top three this year. So with that in mind I'm going for a 3-0 win for Motherwell!

If we worried about that then we would never sign players...

End of the day. Fans were told about 500 times to not go on the pitch. Fans went on the pitch. Fans ran straight to the opposition fans to rip the pish out of them. Sevco fans went a bit radge threw a few coins. Then in came four horsemen of the apocalypse to sort them all out. Club will accept the fine and will tell the fans again at the end of the season about 600 times not to go on the pitch, fans will run into pitch...............

Brobbel looks like a baddie in a Robin Hood film!

Would be a nightmare if Pearson is out long term. Got the feeling Baraclough was building the team round him. Hopefully he is OK.

Now Davor Suker was a player!

Will he be playing as a striker though? Was very very effective in midfield. Great news though. Fully expected him to go somewhere else!

No I never thought you did. I agree he maybe needs help, but thats not Motherwells issue.

He got a testimonial. What else does he want? He asked about a job at Fir Park? Maybe if he applied for a job like normal people he may have had more chance?

Also did we not draw away from home against a top notch Dutch side...........aye exactly! Never read anything into a training game.

Fuck sake! Beaten 3-0 is a training match and already the knickers are ringing and the phone is on speed dial to the Samaritans! All these games are for is match fitness and to test out some shit!

12 fucking quid. All friendlies should either be free or no more than a fiver. They are always utter drivel to watch, have no atmosphere and descend into a farce at half time as they will bring on about 8 new players. Honestly 12 fucking quid!

I take it Skippy is not coming back as that's been a while since he was interviewed about it. Shame as I thought he really helped Ainsworth and Marvin get forward.
