great performance from the team and chuffed to bits with that. Thought the ref was very ropey, gave Dundee a shocker of a free kick after Harkins fell over and it almost hurt us. Also didnt give Dundee 2 stonewall free kicks at the edge of our box in the 1st and a stonewall pen in the 2nd. wasnt impressed much by Dundee, Defence was slower than a week in the jail,Harkins was non existant, Griffiths could be a real player if he sorts his head out and stops being a c***y ned and I thought the left winger Craig Forsyth was their best player by a mile,didnt get too much change from Hateley but pace to burn,good on the ball,runs his guts out and is an aerial threat at the back post For us,Murphy was a revelation, Sutton was great,Hateley was solid at Rb and Jenno + Las were dominant in centre mid. Crags and Reynolds struggled with Griffiths tho. Onwards and upwards. Would love to see us nick Craig Forsyth from Dundee to replace Alan Gow! were desperate for a proper left midfielder

or more likely,team in 6th place, or even 5th for that matter is so shite scared of being dragged into the relegation play off fight a place or 2 below them that they will park the bus and bludgeon their way to a point! We will have a champ league spot to the league winner (rangers or celtic) , a europa league spot to runner up ( rangers or celtic) then a europa qualification spot for 3rd (would involve 3rd,4th and MAYBE 5th) then the bottom 3 involved in relegation and play offs meaning potentially the bottom 5 in a fight to the death. Not really a huge carrot for playing good open football or blooding youth!!

no,they should be loaned out to other teams like hundreds of superstar players currently are and have been! If its good enough for Beckham etc,its good enough for our bous! Colt teams only benefit the old firm, could MFC afford a full squad of players for such a team? or is it not more beneficial to cream the best 6 or 7 guys from our 19`s team and give them a seasons football with a lower league team,who in turn contribute to their wages as well as their football education?

So the Old Firm went into the meetings and told everyone EXACTLY what they want to help them boost finances and we rolled over and had our tummys stroked? fucking scandalous,tho unfortunately not surprising! And from Doncaster, a 10 team league wont actually increase our revenue? itll help Falkirk + Raith Rovers get a lot more money? so Motherwell,in agreeing to this would be agreeing to a league that would kill top flight scottish football, give teams i dont give a fuck about more money,wont benefit us at all and would alienate a chunk of our support,actually LOSING us money? i cant understond this train of thought!!!!!!

to be fair Norway dont have the Bigot brothers raping + pillaging their league/country tho

whered u see that? ive never seen anything like that,even old firm fans i know believe it to be what I had down

at the monent in a 12 team league Rangers get 35% tv cash (£4.5m pa), Celtic get 35% tv cash (£4.5m pa) and the other 10 split 30% tv cash (£400k each). In a 10 team league this would mean Rangers still get £4.5m,Celtic still get £4.5m and the other 8 would now receive £500k so clubs are gonna use this extra £100k to offset ticket prices? by what,taking £1.50 off per ticket over the 18 home games? its just bullshit! hows about this for a radical plan, have a 16 team league where Rangers + Celtic reduce their share to 16% each (£2m each pa) and the rest split 68% (£9m between 14 leaving each club with £642k). The Old Firm still get 3.5 times more than the rest money wise but a fairer distribution of money means all the rest have over 50% MORE than they currently do! Ok a 16 team league does mean only 30 games/15 at home but a 32 team group style league cup, euro play offs,relegation play offs or all 3 would easily give all clubs their precious 18 home games or more and if it doesnt, they have over £240k extra to help offset the loss of those games!

as well as this we need to bring in safe standing areas, theres nothing in the law stopping it, the taylor report was only ever reccommendations that were taken on board and perhaps the most important thing, the SCOTTISH MEDIA promoting the Scottish Game, the premiership isnt the best league inthe world and even the championship is full of shite teams but youd never know that cause those leagues are bigged up so much

if Sky/ESPN dont like the games and decrease the tv deal then the clubs just tell the old firm to get fucked with their 80% between thenselves + scraps between the rest. In my eyes We need - a 16 team league play each other twice start early July mid season break play offs between 2nd + 5th (2nd at home v 4th,3rd at home v 5th,if win,2nd at home in final) 2 Down, 3rd bottom + 3rd in Div1 play off Play-Offs 2 legged 12/4 Voting Structure Even Split of TV + Sponsorship Cash (Old Firm can have right to sell their games outwith UK+Ire) Tv deal can be done in 1 or 2 packages with up to 60 games per season (2 per wknd) Have a proper Derby Day weekend and promote the shit out of it Trial of "Friday Night Football" and promote the shit out of it 23 Man Squads (8 under 21`s in squad) Max 6 u-19s named in reserve (incase of injuries) Sliding Pricing Structure, Cheapest Adult seat in all grounds £5,Most Expensive £25

i dont understand this 2 leagues of 10 format money wise, does this mean the tv deal + sponsorships will be for the top 10 only and there will be new deals negotiated for SPL2? or will the current/new deal cover both divisions?

Heard better things about Innes, some guys have said if he could add goals to his game he has a very big future! Heard less about Lawless tho. Is Jordan Halsman still @ Annan?

Yip could just see our 3,400 crowds filling that ground nicely

Accies in desperate need for a win,were historically very generous in these situations so unfortunately I cant see anything other than a 2-0 win for Accies, prob with Mensing or the like scoring both

aye thats cause they built a 24k stadium with a huge football museum and restaurants covering 2 stands, a 25m screen for showing highlights and an NHS walk in centre added to the main stand facilities. a basic 9k or 10k version would see you with change from £10m easily, ok still maybe too much for us but if you could get the added revenue from sponsorships etc like i said it could be possible (all being only if we got a good price for fir park!)

but the curvature costs a lot to put in and its around £1m more to put a 2 tier structure instead of single tier. Also corner seats are 33% more expensive than straight runs and those seats arent as popular What we need is a smaller version of Deepdale. 4 separate,single tier,steep sided stands, a row of boxes + facilities in the main stand as well as the shop,an MFC museum,conference suite,sports bar + restaurant to bring in non matchday finance Sell naming rights for each of the stands + the stadium as a whole, and either rent one of the stand roofs to British Gas for solar panels or install them ourselves then we can power the stadium and sell extra back to the grid.

If he had the dedication and fancied giving up the snout he could play for pretty much any club in the uk. The guy is a fantastic footballer,just has well publicised problems with attitude + fitness

aye Celtic have been pish lately but so have Rangers been and they could have taken 10 off us yesterday if theyd fancied it. Team will be - Randolph Hateley/Saunders , Craigan , Reynolds , Hammell Humphrey , Jennings , Lasley , Murphy Blackman , Gow Id love to see - Randolph Hateley/Saunders , Page , Reynolds , Hammell Jennings , Lasley Humphrey , Forbes , Murphy Blackman

Obviously couldnt do it in the Cooper + the Main as they have facilities used between games but due to them being in use their pipes didnt freeze, in sustained weather like this it surely must make sense getting 1 plumber to take a few hours and drain down the east + south then refill if the game goes ahead, would save getting a few plumbers to cut and fit new piping then refill the systems

he is a far better rb than cm but thought he did ok today while he was on

Id argue it would probably cost less to drain the pipes in the East and South stands and refill the morning of the game? then theres nothing to freeze!

if Rangers had even bothered theyd have put at least 7 past us today, need a manager in asap n the team need fucking roasted, absolute shocker of a performance

Why? Its not as if he was pulled up the last time. Wee gollum cumstain

McNamara is coaching @ Partick?

My dad was a rangers fan growing up bt 30 years ago when he was in his early 20s n I was due 2 b born he switched 2 the well cse he didnt wana hav me growing up wi the old firm religious shite. He was a season ticket holder,put me in the claret n amber club when I was 4 or 5 and weve bn going 2 Games ever since. Not once has he regretted becomming a Well fan

Aye I read that about the SPL rules, but there could still be punishment for Aberdeen if it was seen to be not in the spirit of the game. From a legal standpoint, Motherwell are in the right so even if they didnt have that concrete written contract the SPL rules want, if they took it to court We would win and the SPL would have to act anyway as theyd look ridiculous if they didnt, if we push it as vigorously as possible there will be sanctions against the Sheep
