  1. A great day out spoiled only by the referee... ...starting the game.
  2. Supporting Motherwell makes me happy. Take that, haters.
  3. We have had Scotland strikers in recent years who haven't been able to control a ball.
  4. Is there anybody that ever posts on here that actually falls into the "happy clappy" category?
  5. Paul Quinn was no match for Andy Dornan.
  6. Given previous weeks' performances, not exactly surprising we didn't hit the heights today. Hard work starts now.
  7. This. Even when were worse than we are now I enjoyed the build up and the post mortems of every game.
  8. Same here. It will be an internet stream and, if we win, maybe watch the highlights on Sportscene later. I'd be happy to cough up for the MFC TV internet stream.
  9. Aye, 2 - 0 sounds right, with Marinello having a bit of a blinder.
  10. The St. Mirren cup game against Fergie's team was memorable for the atmosphere and the result - although not so much the quality of the game. Given the circumstances this weekend, I also have fond memories of a Hearts game at Fir Park where Joe Wark gifted them an opening goal - a rare event to say the least - and then played like a man possessed for the the remainder, setting up a goal for us and leading us to a 4 - 2 victory. Then there was the famous Killie 5 - 4 game with Mr. McVie's early bath in the second half. Away from home, the Cowdenbeath cup tie where it seemed like half of Lanarkshire turned up to watch us win was a great day out.
  11. It will be on Fox Soccer Plus (or in my case, an internet stream, as FSP is one of the few football channels I don't get).
  12. It will take me a while to digest everything in this post, but thanks for taking the time to lay it out in such detail. An immediate question though is that this seems to be focused on WS who have no (or minimal) say in the governance of our club at this stage. Isn't the club ultimately owned and run by Les currently, and the outstanding loans owned by the club? The WS doesn't come into play from a governance perspective until the loans are re-payed.
  13. Wasn't it our mysterious benefactor from Oxford that was sponsoring him? I think he was named later in the process.

    Mark McGhee

    Aye, I hate it when managers are articulate and good and dealing with journalist's stupid and transparently leading questions.
  15. The WS is already a success because it has loaned the club funds (interest free) on a number of occasions that it would have been unable to secure elsewhere. If all it ever does is that, then it has still been a worthwhile exercise.
  16. How much did we owe to Boyle at that stage?
  17. If I was Craigan, I'd be sticking to my U20s and telly duties. All the enjoyment of coaching, no real pressures of management and a nice number being a pundit. Best he can hope for in managing our club is a year or two of success then getting punted like every other manager.
  18. If Robinson is so good he guided his country to the Euros, why couldn't he guide his domestic team up the table?
  19. I was on the fence prior to the appointment, but now he's on board I'm looking forward to see what he can do for us.
  20. Successful managers are typically employed this time of year. Or, they are so successful they wouldn't be in our price range. So whether it was McGhee or someone else, it's probable their record would be patchy.
  21. More No than Yes for me, but I'm sure he can change my mind if he gets us playing the same way as he did in his first season. I'm fickle like that.
  22. As long as it doesn't go the same way as the last game I attended to pay my respects to Joe (West Brom testimonial), I'll be happy. Be surprised if we got anything from this game, but TBF, we have picked up a few points at home against this mob in the past few seasons, so maybe we can sneak something.
  23. I think people are taking my comments about staff holidays a little too seriously. I do think it's good business sense for the Chairman to be present at our most important game of the season, but not exactly losing sleep over it.
