Has MST dissappeared up its own arse?

NO This has been a great thread to read I think we have a forward-thinking, modern Chief Executive Officer with a fresh and un-biased opinions and thoughts about where the club/game should go and they are very sensible indeed. As is the replies from the fans what other club in UK football allows input from and listen to the fans? Should there be a salary cap in the SPL like we have here in Australia for our football codes?

CB says GROW UP to the Refs... http://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/index.php?op...&Itemid=132

news of the strike has made the papers here in Australia....This from Billy Ried.... Hamilton boss Billy Reid is desperate to move on from the referees saga after warning about the danger of a strike weeks ago. The Accies boss felt the need to speak out after reports on his side's victory over Motherwell last month focused heavily on a dubious decision by Craig Thomson, warning that "without a referee and a ball we don't have a game". And the Accies boss is eager for talks to be held to solve the crisis after the referees hold their weekend of protest. "I hope so for everybody concerned, for the whole of Scottish football, and especially referees," Reid said. "It's a difficult job they have got, the pressure they are under is immense. "If it's affecting their families as well, I certainly feel for them. "Someone asked me a few weeks ago about this and I said it wouldn't surprise me." Reid, whose team host St Mirren on Saturday, believes managers can take the pressure off referees by having a quiet word with them after matches instead of speaking out in the media. "I've been a first-team coach for two or three years and managed for seven to eight years now and I've never been in front of the SFA," he said. "I'm not going to say I pride myself on that but there is a line you can't cross with referees. "If something goes against me then I'm first to chap the door at the end of the game and have a word with them. "But at the end of the day the decision is made and I can assure you, we don't get loads and loads of decisions going for us. "It's part and parcel of the game and you just have to get on with it."

Celtic boss Neil Lennon is 'optimistic' that some good will come from the SPL referee strike. The Scottish Football Association have spent all week scouring Europe for replacement officials, ensuring this weekend's top flight fixtures will go ahead as planned. He admits that the adverse publicity generated by the striking officials has damaged the image of Scottish football, but feels the issue could be good for the game in the long run. "What's been going on in the last week or so doesn't put a good light on the game," the Celtic boss said. "But I'm optimistic that something good will come out of it. "First of all I'm pleased that the game is going ahead, not only for the players but the supporters as well. "It would have been a major disappointment to everyone at the club if the game hadn't gone ahead. "We will see what the aftermath is after this weekend. "It's not for me to comment on why there is a strike or what the reasons for the strike are, people have their own reasons for that. "I understand it to a certain extent but I'm hoping that it will have a positive reaction rather than a negative one."

Kick Celtic out

..I see you drew his front teeth in...
