  1. Our biggest win of the season had those 3 as starters.
  2. Is it too soon for "What do Northern Ireland and the Scottish Premiership have in common? County Down" Probably, but the caffeine has just kicked in and I'm on a roll (and bacon).
  3. I dreamt last night that we opened the scoring. What happened after that remains unclear.
  4. And the Celtic fans were fuming about McCann, screaming for him to be ousted because he never spent any money (when in reality he, unfortunately for us, put the club on a firm financial footing that has left them in their current position).
  5. How could you tell if Sondre Solholm pulled up with a hamstring injury - he couldn't run any slower.
  6. I'd prefer it if they have to start at National League level and try to work their way up the pyramid.
  7. If we finish 10th on goal difference this season then Kettlewell has met his brief i.e. keep us up. The fact that we have been winning more than we have been losing and playing better football is a welcome bonus.
  8. I think I'm in the same boat these days. Maybe by not as much, but as well as what you mention, the fact that they manged to bypass the rules and stay in the League (when every other club in liquidation is ejected) is what annoyed me the most. The excuses and the complaints and the way they screwed over so many suppliers and vendors etc. along the way by claiming that was the old club's debt when it suited them were bad enough. Still be happy to see them both leave our league though - and no B teams lingering like a bad smell.
  9. 18 - 0 to Celtic. Anything less is a moral victory. Seriously, though, with our goal difference being superior to our bottom-6 rivals, a good performance and a tight scoreline is key.
  10. WE'RE DOOMED!! Take your pick anyway. *we're not doomed
  11. Panic in the VAR booth as the official struggles to find his Motherwell rule book and after a few minutes of fruitless searching has to use his Old Firm guide instead. (One pager - goal given).
  12. I'll be looking out for your cheerful posts if we get a draw today.
  13. It would be boring if we knew beforehand that we were guaranteed a win. Most important thing will be to stay aggressive and play on the front foot.
  14. How do you make a small fortune betting on the horses? Start with a large fortune.
  15. Us regularly beating teams at the bottom of the league isn't unusual. Even this season when we were mince we beat Ross County and Dundee Utd away. Of course teams fighting for their lives can win games, but they don't win that many. That's why they are at the bottom of the league. And because a team fighting for their life beats us once out of four or five matches doesn't mean it always happens and it's the Motherwell way etc. etc. It's hardly making an arse of yourself when a relegation candidate pulls out all the stops for survival. I expected it when we have been in trouble and I expect it from every basement team we play.
  16. The reason you remember that one is because it was unusual. All the times we've beaten teams at the bottom of the league pre and post split are more easily forgettable.
  17. Turning a blind eye and not enforcing a lock down was how the Chinese kicked off the pandemic.
  18. I certainly didn't see anything in their game yesterday that concerns me. In particular, they are pretty ropey in defence. We'll need to keep our performance levels up, of course, but assuming we do I think it will be another good day at the office as we restrict their winning streak to one-in-a-row.
  19. I could be wrong (I often am), but if Hearts hire a permanent replacement rather than a body until the end of the season, I'd guess they go for someone from outside our league. Then again, Chelsea brought back Lampard, so who knows?
  20. Hibs are playing like the bottom of the league team in this game. Utd aren't much better, but they are looking better than Hibs.
  21. It was the 4th official that got the ball rolling when he held up Casey's number by mistake when Butcher was subbed.
  22. The only thing rarer than a 20-goals-in-a-season scorer at Motherwell is one that moves on and repeats that form elsewhere.
  23. Just wait until steelboy discovers we're not playing a back four. His head might explode.
