I'm with Steelman on this one. Just enjoy the ride. Costing me $1100 dollars before i even get a ticket to come and watch the final!!

My choice for goal of the season is our winner in the scottish cup final, whatever the hell it looks like !

it might be 90 degrees when i leave here but I will be wearing my scarf for the journey...............if i can loose a few pounds i will put on my motherwell top too !

That's it done now!!! Just bought the plane ticket Hampden here I come !!!!!

I heard there were some people coming from California and I know there were a few travelled further than me back in 1991 so maybe I will do well to get a place position. But If i am the furtheset then I think motherwell should give a free ticket to the furthest travelled. ;-)

Ok I'll up the stakes a we bit :-) Not sure of the distance but a few thousand miles from Austin to Hampden. Made the journey in 1991 so hoping it will be another happy return trip to texas for me. ALready had soem holidays booked. So off work Thu, Fri and Monday. Back Tue wed then leave Thursday for the final and leave scotland on Sunday to be back at work Monday morning.

Sittin here and just said the same thing to the wife

what about Tom Donnelly "the Lone ranger" ??

don't know if i missed it or not but we could also help ourselves by beating Rangers :-)

Awsome with a captial F !!!! got out of bed at 6.30am missed first 2 goals trying to hook computer up to TV ...................... now, wheres those flight schedules ?

I'm hopin to get a bonus so guess what that will be used on............ just hopin the wife agress with my plans for the bonus ;-)

Just as a little aside has anyone pointed a certain gentleman to look at this piece of information below????? GIRUY Mr Young ;-) HomeAwayPtsGoal DiffWDLFAWDLFACeltic311331431011122387648Rangers3111133513131231147439Hearts32944241592422156016Dundee Utd32101424154942022527Kilmarnock32636231875524194710Motherwell338272318538132544-7Inverness CT3143818215742218371Hibernian3255517215111182936-15St Johnstone3355791635892334-21Aberdeen3352921184211133631-20St Mirren3245820263210102628-22Hamilton32079923231193116-36 Awe crap that didnt work too well. but anyway you get the sentiment! Hmmmm looks like I have a faulty keyboard :-) let's hope the St Johnstone goalie's fingers work as well as mine.

Cheers WeeYin wouldn't like to get up at 6.30am to see the game and MYp2p mess it up so sounds like they have it at correct time then. I am hopin to be able to make it back as i did in 1991 didn't bother for the league cup ( phew ) but did go to the pub in Austin to see it and was bummed that I drove even that far after that display. Hoping the SEMI final will be a thing of beauty, a joy to watch as we rip them apart but more than willing to accept a deep into injury time winner with the ball heading by the post only to bounce off the ref and land in the net. Was funny when i came back in 1991. I had my scarf on when I left Austin ( scorchin hot ) all the way to motherwell. Had to go through Paris airport as it was cheapest way. I am wandering around outside hampden to go to the gate when some stranger passing by blurts out....." Hey! I saw you in the airport at Paris yesterday" Still got my plastic back with scarf, video, papers program etc from that day!!! I also have newspaper form 1952 cup final victory. Got that from my uncle who was with me that day so he got to see them win the cup twice. Sadly he is long gone now but hopefully I wil get to join him in being able to say I have seen Motherwell lift the cup twice............................of course there's still the matter of that pesky semi final to get through first!

wasn't listed on myp2p when i looked yesterday but will keep looking. Appreciate if anyone finds it listed on any site that they let us know. cheers oops there it is http://www.myp2p.eu/...l&allowedDays=7 Scottish League Cup Live!Motherwell FC vs. St Johnstone 14:00 - 16:00Indonesia Super Liga Hope they get the KO time right. 12.45pm

They should announce on Friday that anyone with a ticket can bring a friend in free. Not like they would be loosing any money and might swell the crowd a wee bit. I have been trying hard to hold off and not jinx us...................but started looking at flights for the final already! Seemslike it might cost me a wee bit more than it did in 1991 :-(

Awe fuk i am so excited and nervous and filled with dread i have no clue what the hell to write !!!

Don't see it listed but maybe list will update later this week? I have never used myp2p before. Will i need to register or soemthing in order to be able to see the game?

Does anyone know if I can see this on TV channel in Texas or on the internet? I'll have to get up at 6.30 am to watch but hoping it will be worth it.

i usually rely on sprtinglife.com matchday live to get updates. Interesting in their stats though that we have ZERO shots on target yet manage to be a goal in front. Chalk up another one for journalistic accuracy!

I saw most of them. Memory of my first game at Fir park was against Rangers and the score was 3-3 not sure if that is right or not but that is my recollection must have been early 60's But the team I recall was ( not specifically that day ) Wylie Thompson Mcallum Aitken Martis McAnn forward line is a bit sketchy but certainly remember watching Andy Wier ( scored winner in scottish cup game V stenhousemuir with a "banana" shot i think papers called it ) willie hunter was magic was it just after that when JOe Mcbride played? the other forwards I recall were maybe a wee bit after that people like george Lindsay.......is he still running? I also have some old newspapers with reports on mothere beatingBrazilian teams Flamenco 9-3 and Bahia 3-0 plus of course paper clips from 1952 scottish cup victory ( before i was born ) I need to get them laminated or something to preserve them and get them scanned to share on here.

looking for hilights of the game to watch over in the states. One of the posts told me to keep an ey on the thread in the NSFW section............what is that?

DAMN!!!! i didn't know the game was early kick off. Woke up here to watch game at 9am on computer at one of links so kindly suggested by people on here yesterday. The first thing i read is that we won 4-0. WOOOHOOOOO! So now my question is.............is there a link that I can see highlightd??? As mentioned yesterday BBC w***ers do something to their link so that us exiles can't view. Would love to see the highlights so hopefully someone can provide a link.
