Yoshi-1991

As much as he can makes my blood boil at times I would always rather have Chris play for us than against us.

Must agree, for all McCall is a good manager, his scouting network is piss poor and lacks imagination. We slag Brown for trying to get as many ex Well players as he can, but the Bradford fans must say the same about McCall. The only positive thing Gannon had going for him was his eye for a player.

I fear the worst after then news. Will have to have the game of their lives.

Its an expensive trip to be making in the build up to Christmas, can't see us have a big support there, think we would be doing well to break the 500 mark to be honest. If the club had flung on some free buses or some sort of deal it would probably have doubled what we are taking up, but again, can't expect the club to shell out with money being so tight these days.

any foreign channel showing the game by any chance?

I thought it looked quite deliberate at the time, although I would like to think that none or our players would like to do anything like that.

Revenge will be in order for their last minute winner at our patch and it will still be fresh in the players minds. 3-0 to the Well, Higgy X2 and Ojamaa with the 3rd.

Honestly dont see the point in this transfer embargo, its hardly a punishment, it started when the window shut and they can offer players contracts before the embargo is up, so the only thing they are really missing out on is the January transfer window, so effin what? If he goes hes an idiot, he is never going to develop any further in the second or third division. Being a fan of a club is no reason to move to it, especially this early in your career.

There is already a full thread for this exact topic.

And that Thermous bloke or whatever his name was, and the "star of the future" french right back?

Fair enough, I just remember getting awfully frustrated with him getting bullied of the ball, not saying he wasn't built right enough.

McCall, Tel as assistant,

For the first half of his spell he had none what so ever, he got better but still wasn't the strongest I have seen. Plus, I just like Higdon.

I was only about 13 when Pearson was with us, but from what I remember he wasn't as good as Lasley has been the last couple of seasons.

Aye fair enough I forgot Partridge was a leftie. The Juke, for all his height never had a great deal of upper body strength. Lasley has been off form just now but his past two season he has been one of our best players. Pearson to me is the same as 70% of the young players that have come through, starts of looking like hes going to be the next big thing then fizzles away into nothing wither they stay with us or move on, example Forbes, Fitzpatrick, Darren Smith, Slane and even Murphy. I'm not saying Murphy isnt a good player, but he has lost a lot of the fire he had when he broke through. I think even if Pearson had stayed he would have dwindled away. Just my opinion.

That team would easy challenge for the title I recon. I would only make a few changes I would take out Corrigan, put Hutch into the middle and Partridge on the right. I would have Higdon at least on the bench, lacking the big strong forward in that line up.Would have Reynolds as the sub defender. And Lasley in for Pearson............ that c*nt can f*ck off.

No and No. That is all.

Just a guess but I think its because a tighter net is easier for a player to get out of if he slides or falls into it, rather than a loose net that is easier to get tangled in Also from watching those highlights its looks to me that those goals are a bit shallower than some, might just be my eyes playing tricks on me.

Sevco please. Home preferably. Think we need another chance to redeem ourselves.

McCall is needin to drop this "jobs for the lads" thing he has got going on, the only really good thing that has came of it is Nicky Law, who he is now playing out of position. We are pissing away wages for folk to warm the bench when we are needing to get someone into the starting 11.

Was going to post a rant but its not even worth the effort. What was the reason for the ref switch? I left at the 3rd so missed it.

Pfft where were you at the last election?

Gave it to Daley. Just cos I can.

The club should stick entry for this one at £5 for adults, £2 for students and £1 for kids or something. Mostly everyone that would go to the game were there the first time so have a voucher or are in the process of getting one from the club. Stick PATG at £5 and £1 and try generate some extra arses on seats, a wee bit more money and keep up the reputation we have of having these deals.

My general idea for the lay out of a new stadium would be sill having 4 stands. Increase the capacity of the "east" or what the equivalent will be since its the most popular stand and first to sell out for big games. For the Main stand to actually run the full length of the pitch but perhaps having less rows . The away stand to have just one tier, theres no need for two, and although everyone kicks up about it, when the OF come to town give them two stands.We can't fill them anyway, and if you take the last Celtic game for example, you could have fit the Motherwell fans in the Coop and Pod into one stand anyway. Unless of course we somehow grow our attendance and can sell it out ourselves, then the OF can fuck themselves. If possible I would have the stands along the length of the pitch curved and steeper so view isn't as restricted. And again if financially viable I would have all the stands meet in the corners, 1 to keep out the wind, 2 to help create a better atmosphere and 3 it looks cool as fuck.
