I agree with this actually. I'm willing to take my chances though.

The extra 10,000 who were at the cup final but weren't a't the St Johnstone game need to to make the effort to get down to Fir Park every once and a while.

I enquired about the charter and was told it was full....now it appears there are spaces?!?! £650 is some amount of cash though. It wasn't as dear as that for Iceland, Norway or Denmark and thats what it cost for a much longer flight to Greece so I'm surprised (and a bit disappointed) it's as much as that. I fancied the idea of the charter as I was just going myself and it takes the hassle away, plus the novelty of travelling with the players, but that has priced me out of the equation now.

Badly need a win out of the next two games. No disrespect to Ross County, St Johnstone, Killie, and St Mirren, but if after those 4 games we're still winless, that's fucking chronic. And I'll be officially panicing! Thanks to my encouraging words we'll hopefully get the win though!!

1 million for Hutchy.750k for Law. Over ambitious? Possibly. But then look at what other Scottish teams players go for. Glad the club knocked back those pathetic bids.

Just got an email from the club. Nae space on the charter for me. Ah well.

Can only echo the sentiments of all previous posters. Bit of a mixed bag. Not panicing just yet but need to get our first win under our belts asap. Piss poor crowd. Pretty disappointing. Half that went to Panathanikos game.

I'm up for the charter so long as it doesn't breach the 500 mark. I'm rubbish at navigating my way round foreign speaking lands!

Beattie is some signing for St Johnstone. How the fuck can they afford him though?!? Bbc website reports he can't play tomorrow thankfully. Even at this stage, I've got the fear for us this season. Keep thinking of how disappointing we were the season after we finished 3rd with McGhee. I gave up trying to predict the scores years ago, but I'm not optimistic!

Ha ha nice try!

Apologies if I've missed this....but what dates are our games likely to be played?

Hoping for a big team in an easily accessible location and for Motherwell to make as money from it as possible! Oh, and a goal please!!

What Gav212 said. Would be happy never to see Daley in a Motherwell shirt ever again. Don't understand why Higdon didn't start. We did well. Just faded towards the end. Can hold their heads high.

Good point. We should definitely have exercised that right as I think a point is the best we can hope for on Saturday. The players will be knackered.

As ridiculous as it sounds, I feel if we are to have a decent season then we need to take 3 points on Saturday. It's always more difficult to play catch up.

This. Some excellent points in there.

I suppose a point away to the new boys on the first game of the season isn't a total disaster, but a bit disappointing when you see some of the players they have and more so to hear we didn't play well. I thought we looked great against Pana on Tuesday and we're unlikely to face a player of that calibre again in the SPL.

Yer kidding?

If Jennings is still without a club, could we just not re-sign Jennings?!?!

Same here. What good did that do? Completely pointless.

Tough opener. Wouldn't be surprised at any result. Would be great if we could get off to a good start again. On paper our first 6 or 7 fixtures certainly give us an opportunity to do that.

Damaging seats? What the fuck is wrong with some folk?!

Nevermind the East Stand queue's....why di the police stop all traffic in and around the stadium from the 85 minute till about 10 minutes after the game had finished? I had to make a sharp exit due to a lengthy journey home and didn't want to get caught in the inevitable bottle neck down towards the M74 at Strathclyde park. No other section of traffic had been held back and ended up stuck for ages.

Been quite busy lately so haven't had a chance to post, or even really think about tonights game which is extremely unusual for me. I'm looking forward to seeing a hopefully packed out Fir Park making a huge amount of noise for the team, but beyond that I have no expectations. Keeping the tie alive for the away leg would be nice, but we shouldn't be under any illusions about how difficult a game this will be. What will be will be. I'll be more annoyed if we don't take anything from Saturday!

I'm staying off this thread till after the game as it's making me jealous!! Good luck to everyone that's going and remember to stay in the shade!
