Sad news indeed! RIP

yasss! mon Hutch

obvious Davidson was gonna score today, maybe the car breaking down was a gift from above,save me spending 20 quid + petrol money on what sounds like a Llanethli 1st leg performance so far.

18-5 Well!!

The Old Firm will occupy the Usual top 2 places but below that is a complete Lottery! Hearts have lost Aguiar,Karipidis,Cesnauskis,Mikolaunis,Neilsen Aberdeen have lost Severin,Mair,Smith Hibs have lost Jones + Fletcher Hamilton have lost Easton,McCarthy,Offiong + a couple more plus possibly McArthur St Mirren are stronger,Dundee Utd as well, St Johnstone we dont know really, Falkirk are weaker, Killie are much the same So looking at that, with a little luck we could finish 3rd or it might be 10th, At the moment as all squads stand I would say 1.Celtic 2.Rangers 3.Dundee Utd 4.Hearts 5.Motherwell 6.Hibs 7.Aberdeen 8.Killie 9.St Midden 10.St Johnstone 11.Falkirk 12.Hamilton but with 3 weeks left to sign players as I said, It is a complete Lottery

We signed him on a loan with view to a permanent move which would suggest that we have both first refusal and a transfer fee agreed! He joined Everton in summer 2005 on a 5 year deal (i think) and Ive seen nothing regarding any contract extensions which would mean he is available on a bosman next summer with a nominal fee so Id suggest a move in January would probably cost around the £100k mark which would be very good business indeed going by how well he has done in previous loan spells + how well he started here

Ruddy has been excellent tonite, been the difference between 3-0 + 6-0

shocking miss, free shot from 6 yards

poor defending for both goals but lets be honest, this team are superb and should be 5 up at the moment. Fast, skilful and their movement is great, plus solid at the back, were not gonna score the way we playing so just need to pray they take it easy and we get away with 2-0 on the plus side, this Romanian tv is priceless

which sopcast do you download?

Ok but Lasley, McGarry + O`Brian have been replaced by Jennings,Coke + Humphrey, 3 guys who may be young but also have well over 100 league games each under their belts so were not exactly losing much and if anything GAINING experience wise and Class wise!

Not really the game for him to start tonight, Better off to go with Suttons power to begin with and Im prety sure Murph will be on before the end

Ruddy Saunders - Hutchinson - Craigan - Reynolds Jennings - Forbes Humphrey - Coke - Slane Sutton Good team, lets see how the new boys get on

fucking joke that EDIT : No commentary i mean lol

was that not the 12th Sept? O`Donnells goal was a drive from 18 yards? I remember that game if im thinking bout the right one, was my birthday and i was going nuts in the main stand. McGrillen was one of my favs when I was wee (well younger anyway lol) Sad Sad news, RIP Mowgli thoughts with the family

Could be that he was pissed off with McGhee giving it the big talk up last summer in Austria, giving him pre season games then dumping him back in the 19`s + reserves. Plus giving Hutchinson + Page new contracts and Saunders + McHugh chances before him? Still, if he had any beef with Motherwell + MMG thats in the past,and Im confident Gannon is the man to sign him (and the other talented youngsters) to long term contracts. Who would you want to guide the start of your career? A career bullshitter who only uses youngsters as a last resort when he cant actually sign other players, or a guy who prides himself on developing youth and in his last job brought through 2 or 3 guys who are coveted by half the premiership?

Murphy + Archdeacon signed 3 year contracts at the end of last season and were paraded on pitch at Fir Park toward the end of last season if i remember correctly so Murph will have 2 years left, Forbes is out of contract next summer I believe and Slane hasnt signed a full time contract as he is only 17 so he is still on an u-19 contract

was it not our first colours, blue + something that we used from Lord Dalziell? then changed to claret + amber?

Goian is a huge threat at any set piece, the guys huge + has scored loads of goals from centre half, and seeing as we dont have anyone near as big as him and our history with set piece goals, giving away free kicks + corners could kill us tho i think the tactic of using Slane,Humphrey + Murphy up top + dropping Sutton could be equally damaging to Steaua if we get them on the ball or in behind

1 amazing season and 1 average/poor season would be his legacy at Fir Park,the first season was an incredible transformation but last year was definately spoiled by him and his "tactical awareness", 2 year search for an apparent mythical "Dominant Centre Half",constant whoring and dodgy signing policy. He handicapped us in europe with his decisions in both legs, and fucked up every important game in our season last year and this nonsense about him giving youth a chance? Murphy was blooded and looked cracking but MMG fucked him about + ruined his confidence, Saunders again got a chance, did really well in 3 games then was dumped for MMG`s golden child and Hutchinson,Slane,McHugh etc should have been given a lot more time instead of a last resort or a thank you run in the last game of the season, plus Forbes was not deemed good enough for the 1st team,thats why he was loaned out and not available for selection We had a tiny squad that he constantly moaned about but whos responsibility is it to sign players? and really, how many teams in the SPL outside the old firm had players on wages like Porter,Hughes,Malcolm + Klimpl? He increased our wage bill to over 70% of the clubs turnover, he had a lot more resources than much of the SPL so he was hardly a messiah working on a shoestring. at the end of the day, he brought some great memories but im glad he has gone and were getting back to the way MFC should be run, blooding and bringing through youth players from our production line and living within our means

Forbes,Slane,Hutchinson + Murphy x 3, all youngsters, fuckin amazing, we want 10!!!! we want 10!!!!!

pacey + tricky team, Mon the Well, get into these c***s

sure he`s a part of the groundstaff at Fir Park. Plus the club themselves said no games will be on FP till the start of the SPL season

cant be bothered trawling through but the links are there and Im sure im not the only one to have read them. Humphrey has played 88 league games for Shrewsbury, Jennings has made over 170 league appearances,160+ at Tranmere where he was considered captain material and Coke has 130+ league appearances, you might not have heard of them but surely it can be argued they are adding experience to the squad! I know what youre saying about us losing so many "old heads" from our old squad but these guys are young,have bags of potential AND have a lot of experience of tough lower league football, as I said, maybe Gannon sees these guys as leaders in his team , or maybe we are going to sign 2 or 3 old guys on loan to help bring on youngsters, we will just need to wait and see, but certainly I think no matter if it was last year or this year, these 3 guys improve the squad AND add experience to a team who include - Mike Fraser - 66 Mark Reynolds - 127 Darren Smith - 44 Jamie Murphy - 48 Marc Fitzpatrick - 109 Jim O`Brien - 55
