What? Foran was wanted by some the other week too. We've enough journeymen pros cluttering up the squad at the moment - Were you watching Saturday? As SteveDiggle alluded to on another thread, my fear would be an incoming management team likely to build a team around those who exist and others they may bring in. While Frazza above mentions the extreme of selling everybody around him, I'd build our team around Forbes also.

Blamed for a multitude of goings on, but, cant be tarred with that one...

Hammer. Head. Nail. Hit. In no particular order.

Anti-football Plenty of sunbed shops to choose from...

Being 'approached' by 4 different sides of late differs from actually attending interviews in club time...

To think this boards sycophants have him at least Championship bound...

at that.

Am I missing something? When did the Irish become a race?

Never doubted my source for a minute

You've a game on that night fella.

Had the fella who ran all the way over towards the West Enclosure with arms aloft drop me off in his taxi the other week.

And for a third time ? My point? Shamelessly taking an odd quote from this and another thread... We're now approximately 18 months into his contract, he barely featured in his first six as the then manager had him down as a chump. Much lauded performances by the usual suspects, when in reality a good game is hitting a shot within a foot past the post or winning a foul speaks volumes. Decent creative player? As steelboy posted above "when a players best quality is that he gets fouled a lot then he's hardly going to be difficult to replace". Goal scoring and assist records are there for all to see (entire career if you need further convincing) Stands up against these mythical matches where he's been terrorising opposition defences. FACT. Recent team formations - Was he missed? Doubt it! Jamie Murphy has offered a lot, lot more going forward. As for your closing statements...

Again ? So by your reckoning he's contributed to the winning of two spot kicks, one securing points at Tannadice and the other missed (you can get your hand on the dummy with another at St Midden). His wing wizardry has opposing players sent off which you agree we then fail to capitalise on. So where does he had the strength to our team? Vivid dreams, the Jim O'Brien that you and others get all misty eyed over is a MYTH.

? One and the same? I'd love to see this Jim O'Brien playing in claret and amber.

To Dianne, credit where credit is due, a big thank you from the players and committee at the Motherwell Fans Club for organising last nights Chrimbo bash at Fir Park. We've seen over the last couple of months the work that you've input and a top night had by all in our company. With his best performance since Scott Leitchs' house the other week, methinks we may have seen Jim O'Brien playing for the last time at Fir Park if the rumour factory is to be believed... All sorts of shenanigans to be had especially Joeboys' dancing technique although Grimmy and Big Tache stole the show for me with the Quo!

Well, to me, in accommodating him for little return, that's where the team has lost its balance over the last 3 weeks.

Erm, kind of self explanatory then? No law binding Mr Gannon to share his opinion so he's exercising that right. You could even get their dad to read about how the manager thought the game went and how he thought his selection/formation went later in the week when he talks to the official site. You take it easy on that keyboard now...

Well, flat hunting in Aberdeen without female as she refuses to move there would suggest otherwise. Zander Diamond, a relation, was telling all and sundry out Dumbarton way not so long ago... Not as big a loss as some would have you believe.

Doh! Was talking about Giles, I didn't realise 'juke' was highlighted...

How? In what way? Plenty have stated similiar in this thread without explanation, seems to me that it's only affecting the sycophants on here that have a self importance that knows no bounds... Remembering it's the Jim Gannon show! I'd have loved to have been a fly on the wall at his Thursday press conference. Believe Mr keevins was given his place. Todays' edition of the Daily Rebel should be good (using that term very, very loosely).

Fibber! He signed plenty for me.

and thrice

Tin hat on here. Decent pub, but, lager is one of the worst in Motherwell

Whit? Deary me big man, consider yourself dropped for our next match... ridiculous.

Cheers, on the money with that post
