  1. Not as old as some in here (no offence to anyone ). Some of the top of my heid. 1991 - Scottish Cup Final 2005 - League Cup Semi Final against Hearts. I was in the top tier and nearly fell over the side in celebration. 2005 - Motherwell 2-1 Celtic. It was my 21st Birthday that day, and the peeps I sat next to in East Stand got my name on the board etc to celebrate. Even got me a card et al. The result just made it all the more sweeter 2008 - Motherwell 2-1 Aberdeen - What an atmosphere, even from the Main Stand.
  2. The thing with Livingston stadium is they had 5 years to build their stadium. In year one it was only one stand (the one not attached). Then it was that one and the one across from it. Then each goal end was built. The year they thought they would get promoted (year 4) they filled in two corners to get up to 10,000 The question the board has to ask, do we need 10,000 seats? Can we get away with 8-9K. Or do we push for 10K+ and hope for a few big games more often?
  3. Aye, they're taking an interest. But they should of had to take an interest they should have been the ones demanding the talks with the stewards, as soon as one or two, never mind the countless complaints from the Motherwell faithful. But as long as the 100 or so members of the Trust are happy... that's all that matters right? Why did it take a relatively new and upcoming fan group to actually do something about the treatment of the fans when the Trust have had years to sort it out. Wellboys the new voice of the fans? At least they seem to be able to get stuff sorted or at least out there. Although I am sure all this bickering is not good for the Wellboys nor the Trust who unfortunately for the Wellboys need to work together for the better enjoyment of the fans.
  4. Nah tbh the one or two times we met Rangers early on I said that was that
  5. How often have we said that since 1991
  6. We don't ban supporters from other clubs mate. In fact, a few encourage it for the banter. Just know your place (ala Motherwell >>>> anything you can offer) and you will be fine
  7. Living this side of the country does give you an extra edge when it comes to disliking a football side. For example, it is not often you see the Celtic/Rangers thing in Livingston as bad as all the arseholes that are Hearts fans. For me Hearts fans are worse than any of the Old Firm couple! But that is through experience for myself than anything on a wider scale
  8. For our younger, and less knowledgeable supporters. What is the Brechin fiasco of the Mid 80's?
  9. Your "source" may be onto something, mainly for the reason that he has already came out and basically said the same thing a few weeks back

    Sutton

    Tbh I think we have a winner. Sutton will get his chance, and I have no doubt he will take it well. Our strike force for the upcoming time will be Porter/Clarkson, but if Porter for some reason is unavailable it will be Sutton/Clarkson. As long as we are never to see a Sutton/Porter again I will be happy.
  11. Like I said. Porter isn't an idiot. He'll keep all his options open for as long as possible. I believe the only way he'll sign a contract with someone in January is if Motherwell receive an offer they cannot refuse, and he is thrown oot the door.
  12. And to be honest, compared to last season it has worked well. We're a lot better, still not great, but a lot better at defending corners.
  13. Ah, the season Aberdeen got to the UEFA Cup by being humped by Rangers in the Scottish Cup while coming bottom of the League... they then went on to be humped oot by the mighty Bohemians of Ireland

    Highlights....

    No you're not being bias. Most over at Jamboskickback agree with you. Which, lets be fair shocked me

    Highlights....

    Is there any word on Virgin getting BBC Alba anytime soon! Us Virgin customs pay our licence too On the game, does that not make us now 4 wins and 1 draw on BBC Alba? Any chance Motherwell FC could do a sole full game deal with the Beeb?
  16. 6 in 5 games!!!! Saying that, Hearts had a decent shout too.
  17. No, trialists cannot play in Scottish Cup. Not sure if it is the same about the League Cup and the SFL allow trialists to play in the League, but I am 99.8% sure they cannot play in the Scottish Cup.
  18. If I was Porter, and I know I'm naw I would actually wait till the Summer, or at least the split to decide my future. If Motherwell make the top 6 and are only a couple of points of 5th and the Scottish Cup Semi Finals/Final has the top 4 Clubs in Scotland in it, then we would be only a couple of points of a UEFA Cup spot. OK, the first round of the UEFA Cup Quals is not glamorous, and even the First Round proper has been known not to help keep players, but maybe, just maybe Porter my think a couple of more years here and I could get a better deal either from the Old Firm ( ) or down south
  19. Are you sure. I'm sure if they don't play in the Premier League we have something to worry about. Would have play All SPL clubs than non-SPL clubs
  20. He almost got it on the radio too, being pipped by Porter because he scored. Tbh if you keep Hearts best player on the park quiet you have done your job right.
  21. I have been dreading it since the draw. Even more so now since we've began to pull a run of results oot the bag
  22. Hey Livingston only killed one club, and even then the history is still (only just) remembered. ICT are everything people hate about Livingston x2 Plus Livingston United are my local club
  23. It makes me laugh Inverness fans still think they can climb the table. It will be a magnificent escape if they manage to end 11th! A fucking shocking Club, with a shocking manager and a fucking shocking history that lot!
  24. Quickly replaced by one ripping the pish oot of us after Saturday....
  25. Was that naw the defender they were looking at? If it was Brum then it couldn't have been a work permit issue since they go by the same laws as us. Unless again the SPL were dumb enough to think our league is some supterstar league (ala Jason Scotland)
