Jnr beside me was wanting to complain about that to the heid sherang but being honest, let them stand. we should be allowed to as well so if they're allowing others to stand it lessens the arguments put forward by the authorities when they try to force us to sit down. The only argument they have is that Old Firm crowds are larger therefore more difficult to police. So if they can't police large crowds they shouldn't be in their positions. That said a consistent policy is required so that any match commander coming in knows the boundaries are already set, he just has to work within them. All this chopping and changing fuels confusion and resentment

You haven't come across him before then?

Negotiated a discount with Provan Sports, buy all 5 and get a fiver off so £32.50, nice wee box set for Chrimbo indeed.

on both counts

The club will no doubt benefit through their deal with Provan Sports of which I don't know the specifics. Change of heart? None really as the people who originally took the decision to ban it no longer make these decisions. Just thankful it's been given the go ahead after 6 long years and countless requests.

Not me that's selling them anymore. Provan Sports are in charge of them now.

Just listen tae us Dj's then? Sorted

How whit ye got against English fitba'? I quite like my days out to Donny Rovers games.

As of yesterday the club have finally agreed to allow the complete series of books written by myself to be stocked by Provan Sports in the shop. My thanks to all concerned for finally getting permission. There are 5 books in the series, they are (in order); Joe Wark Knew My Father Tae It's a Motherwell Thing Extended Highlights Peacocks & Feather Dusters The More Things Change..... Price is set at a uniform £7.50 as it made no sense to have different pricing levels and hopefully these will be well received as a welcome addition to the growing stock of reading material on our club.

Just an example to emphasise his point, FFS it's well known the meedja highlight whatever point suits their agenda.

Get yirsel up the Cooper fella, be rude no' tae.

In Ireland apparently, Motherwell Times let that slip in an interview with Forbes

Sure you could negotiate a refund on your ticket money if he leaves during the January windae

Apparently Sat 27th February in Bellshill Hilton, Tam Cowan compering. £50 a skull. No' fur everyone obviously but if ye can afford it a guid night oot in the offing.

Note everyone using the term linesman. That's because that's what they are, until they start assisting the referee they'll fucking stay linesmen in the eyes of supporters. Useless one eyed c***s that they are.

Keeping things in perspective seems difficult for many. That is indeed no' too bad. Pretty shite yesterday but a good day out makes up for a lot

He's a fuckin' arse and he got me annoyed for what it's worth

Much as we can be frustrating keeping a bit of perspective seems to be a trait not only devoid of our fanbase then. If only we were a bitty further down the line we could have been in with a real shout of worrying the big two jobies, as it is we can play our part along with the others cos they are seriously there for the taking if HIbs and Utd can keep up their form (which I doubt)

Keith didn't get 'straight up', watch the highights again. Straight red without question. Buaben deserved his, Williams deserved red on 3 occasions after he'd been booked, our 'nalty wasn't clear, the offside decision was the worst of them all though. Clearly onside at all times in the move, there's no even an argument to defend him and his linesman.

Contrary to fears about his timing I think this is the perfect time to call referee's ability into question. If he did it after a few defeats he'd be accused of trying to deflect blame or sour grapes. we all know refs in Scotland urnae up to much, bit of dialogue and we might see some improvement if Dallas takes legitimate concerns on board and acts. High time someone took the matter seriously enough to actually demand something is done. We are where we are just now because as long as the Old Firm were looked after no-one else dared kick up enough of a stink.

Who's moaning, the guys telling it like it is. He's right FFS, you're just picking faults for the sake of it far as I can see. Maybe you want to be the one to turn round in a couple of years time when everybody hates him to say "See told you so". Certainly seems that way from this angle cos you pick on everthing he says or does and put a negative slant on it. Anyway you've wasted enough of my time, just shout "Fuck off Gannon" after the game on Saturday so's everyone knows who you are.

You sticking up for tired old hacks ahead of Gannon now? FFS fitba's tribal, it's us against them and journos are one of the most hated enemies of fitba' fans but you put your dislike of our manager ahead of that? I've always maintainted journos know fuck all about the game yet they're paid to write some amount of shite. If they stuck to the actual fitba' they might get on but they force their ignorant opinions on us when they're not worth tuppence. There are exception of course but overall that's a pretty accurate generalisation IMO. Obviously there's more than just me who think along those lines If you hadn't put your cards on the table regarding our manager already I'd say you had a point. Now I just think it's another stick to beat him with. And for what it's worth I think you've proved Al B's point

But we aren't getting paid for talking shite about a subject we only know from the outside, are we?
