  1. I have said for ages, the reason spl grounds are dead and quiet is that it is all seating. Surely in todays world measures can be taken to allow a standing section to be rolled out at fir park safely. People who want to stand then stand in this section, people whom dont want to stand can happily sit elsewhere in the stadium. I personally feel this would generate more noise. To go off course a bit, what is the opinion of bringing back pints at the football? surely over a period of 90mins you can only at most drink 4 or 5 beers which would hardly see someone legless. I just think if the english can still sell beer why cant we when for one we has less people to monitor at the grounds.
  2. Kilmarnock, Falkirk or St. Johnstone at home at a push, would defo like to avoid Dundee, Aberdeen, Celtic or Rangers anywhere, let them knock each other out
  3. With draw for the 4th round taking place today at 2.30pm, Who would we like out of the following: Celtic Rangers Kilmarnock Aberdeen Dundee United Falkirk St. Johnstone I would like Falkirk at Fir Park, whats the other thoughts?
  4. Am not saying Lasley should be within scotland's starting 11 and prob not a fully fit 16 squad, all am saying is why has he never been considered for a friendly when other humpties are picked
  5. Adam is a player that needs space and time, looked useless against Sweden, Lasley is a grafter and works hard, I would rather see Lasley as a holding mid than Paul Hartley Robson has yet to do anything in a Scotland strip - why keep picking him
  6. Hammell and Lasley OR Davidson and Robson - I know which two I would pick, and again, it is only my thoughts
  7. On the eve of the scotland game, I am getting more and more p'd off with the Scotland team selections: Mark Reynolds - Why can he not get a cap for the full team? surely he is better than Garry Kenneth, Berra, and the donkey brothers!! Why he not get a game in Sweden. Ross McCormack and Davie Clarkson - They struggled to get a cap when at fir park, however, the min they move to a English 'bigger club' they are picked. Keith Lasley, Steven Hammell - Could also be in with a shout of getting a chance as they could easily be on the same level as charlie adam, barry Robson, paul dixon, callum davidson I just feel that players within fir park are over looked and could be easily picked. Whats ur thoughts?
  8. he was about 10 and if he cant wait 45mins its a doctor he needs
  9. We wont buy a player or sign another player, if we do i'll admit am wrong. I know the money will be used to help run the club this year but we havent signed, maybe wrong, for ages, always free's
  10. I personally hated the attendance last night (prob get a kicking for this comment) There i was bricking it, with no nails left, while two women talk all game behind me about shite, the row infornt had a wee boy that needed a pee every two mins, therefore, seen about 85min of the game. These 'part time' or 'day out' fans are a waste of time, they come and go without a care about the club, fans, players, managers, until the next big night. I would have been happier with 5k loyal fans cheering on the well.
  11. some bookies are offering the same price to qualify and to win after 90mins I'd be to qualify all day long gives you more of a chance look at www.oddschecker.com
  12. I buy the strips, have many t-shirts etc, and never wear them Love the clubs colours and would have to say I would never want the team colours to change
  13. Total banger!!! he's a rangers/hearts fan (in that order) and he knows if we win tomorrow night, the spl get the 2 champions league places back in 2011 - 12 season, i.e. giving rangers a better chance of getting into it. He's a first class fanny not kidding on
  14. would be a great signing for us, no question ok his form has dipped, but could defo regain it surely if hamilton and paisley scum could sign him, we surely can afford him
  15. Church - When does your bus leave, hope your putting some pictures up and reg. updates
  16. Cheers Guys, hope we can get something and bring it back with us
  17. Anyone know how many tickets have been sold to date? and the proposed number going?
  18. They only reason they bother is because the more fans that go the less the club need to pay, as part of the fans cost is to cover part of the clubs cost. You say additional cost for transfer and accom, if they are direct flights then the transfer is 10 mins from airport - hotel, 5mins hotel to ground, surely a bus company could be used at a very competitive rate. Am going on a stag do with another 21 guys and its costing us £25 for a bus down to newcastle, drivers digs and home Thats my opinion and am entitled to it, as are you. I know a pilot very well and discussed this with him last night and he commented the cost of chartering a flight is not as expensive as it is first thought. Am not having a go at the club at all and are grateful they are putting this option on.
  19. What I mean by 'allow' is that many of people have stated they can only get one day off work, etc. I know there are other routes to get to odense and they are not stopped anyone booking off their own back, all I meant is that for many motherwell fans the charter flight is the only option, however, to pay double the price, is that reasonable, thats all am saying. I know its more expensive to book a chartered flight, as you detail, however, if booking a hotel in block booking does that not reduce the cost, as it looks like am paying much less that the chartered option. Also, as I said previously, I expect to pay extra but £200 - £300 per head does seem very expensive. Am not having a go at the club as they could easily not put on any charter flight, mean many will lose out
  20. Paying for someone to do the work - I arranged my whole trip in 15mins and never left my seat at work. Am not having a go at the club, would just like them to explain why it so expensive. I dont know how many seats are one the flight, however, say its 100 seats, that means its costing just under £60,000 to take 100 people from glasgow to odense, for an over night, and you dont think thats very very expensive?
  21. May feelings also, I feel we are getting the bad end of the stick and the club should be doing far more to allow more motherwell fans gain the experience with traveling with motherwell
  22. Can ANYONE within the club tell us why all three European away legs have cost between £500 - £600 to travel with motherwell? The last two organised chartered flights, the cost to fly was between £500 - £600 with no over night, granted this away trip is including an over night within its price. Why is it so expensive? I understand the meaning of a 'chartered' flight, i.e. a flight route been orginised to accommodate a specific date, time, and destination requirement, however, on the above prices you could have a week in U.S.A or long haul (granted an over night watching Motherwell is much better). Is anyone else concerned about this cost? I have booked up for 2 days, 1 night in odense and its costing me under £300 for the following: Return flights to Copenhagen Return train Copenhagen - Odense 1 night in decent accom.
