another number

Exactly!

I heard Gannon (from Sunday) on the BBC podcast thing yesterday. He speaks very very well, he seems very tactically astute. Every time I hear him I'm more impressed with the way he talks and what he seems to be trying to do.

I concur. The ref wasn't too bad but the linesman on the East side had an absolute shocker

Don't you know no team in Scotland ever plays well against the old firm. If you take anything from the game you're lucky/the ref supported the other half/they played so bad we looked good.

Coke for me, but was nearly Ruddy.

I think a lot of folk that normally sit round about me sat nearer the back because of the sun. Its hard to see how empty the cooper was when your sitting in it though, but think more folk up the back nmight make it look emptier on telly? I agree though, still a pretty poor turn out, but if we keep playing this way folk'll come back

Thought we were quality today, I'd have taken the draw before the game TBH. Coke was great again as was Hately. Key thing today was, again, it was a team performance, solid as a unit. Something we lacked for large parts of last season.

I'd ban Aberdeen from the transfer market for the next 2 windows

Excellent

I think the Cooper should always be ours, however it was a nice wee change of scenery to sit in the East every now and again.

I think a couple may have been asked to leave. I could be wrnog but there was a fair few young guys fairly near the front who seemed to disappear and quieten down. They could just have moved further up the tand I suppose

I,m feeling quietly confident about saturday. Yesterday (and I know Rangers will be better opposition) we knocked the ball about well and the midfield and defence worked really fluidly to let the back line get forward while the midfield provided cover. If we go for it against Rangers I really don't see why we can't get a result.

That songs a bit of alright.

I must say I enjoyed the game yesterday. We knocked the ball about well and I don't care if it was their U21s, it's still Motherwell 1 - Man United 0. I'll take it.

I must say this is where Jim Gannon has impressed me most so far, horses for courses and all that.

Mark Reynolds seems like a sound guy with his head screwed on. Nine times out of ten papers will always run with one line that makes the story more extreme. He's hardly out there pimping himself to all and sundry. As long as we have cover I'd rather take £4.5 million for him (rough estimate ) in January than get hee haw in June/July.

My fave part of that reply is "ask McGhee himself"

The Cooper's not open

Aye when i tried to buy a ticket for the Cooper the other week the woman in the ticket office said they weren't selling the Cooper

Couple of folk discussing this on ins and outs, apparently he's only 17 so prob will be signing for youth?

aye i think so, I was just wondering

As a wee aside how many loan players can you have in a squad in the SPL (sorry if this is answered elsewhere)? They've been talking on SSN about how in the premiership you can have 4, but in English leagues you can have 8 in squad (4 under 23, 4 over) but can only have 4 on matchday

I love that the players we are signing are ones no one has come up with, much more interesting

What side does he play on? Or is he a central defender?
