Well done Motherwell. That was nerve wracking

We didn't win when we played cup finals when Stephen Robinson was in charge. That's not me slating him - it was fabulous that he got us there but even if Kettlewell got it wrong yesterday it's completely correct that it's hard to compete against Celtic and Rangers - even if it's an off form Rangers. I've seen posts tonight on Facebook suggesting that Kettlewell should get the sack - ridiculous Im also totally gutted at the result by the way. Devastated isn't the word.

Looks like a good line up

Sorry to hear that. You have my sympathy. I broke my leg earlier in the year - it's hard going. Hope you enjoy the day as much as you can

...

Oh dear. That's a shame

Have a lovely day tomorrow fellow Motherwell fans.

Good luck to Motherwell tomorrow. Have a great time fellow Motherwell fans

Im not the only person on here who has suggested we cut the allocation - taking that aside. They come into our ground and smash the seats up. Kick open fire doors. And as far as I'm concerned - this has zero to do with "investment" because lots of people have said we don't need it and we are doing ok as we are It's about the way their fans treat our stadium. We don't need to ban them outright - just to the point that the south stand isn't overcrowded but - if they come into our ground and continue to rip seats up and smash them - yeah I would ban them - we can do without trash like that or their money - sack them off. If they can't behave get them in the bin Particularly as more than one poster online has said we are doing very well financially without the need for outside investment - at some point we need to make some sort of stand and not roll over to fans who smash up the south stand for laughs

Brilliant. Shame that some people can't appreciate it without slagging some of our players off

You're on block. You've made more than one snide dig at me on here - the first one was completely out of the blue, you popped up out of nowhere a few months ago on here to have a pop at me for no reason - I was apparently on here too much to do well in my degree yes? And you did that deliberately to be snide at a time when I really didn't need it My life has been hugely challenging over the past few years. I went back to uni because of some really horrible life events that I wouldn't wish on anyone and all I've had on here is a bunch of men I don't know lining up to take pot shots at me when I least needed it - and you made a snide dig on here out of the blue for no reason when we had never interacted, ever - you could have and should have said nothing. My degree and how much time I spend on here has zero to do with you. Nothing. Nil. Zero I had no idea who you were but the first interaction we had on here was you making a snide dig - saying if you study as hard as you post on here you'll do well - completely out of the blue and totally unnecessary. I really hope you take one big stare into your own void and see how someone might see a comment like that - because it was nasty. With horrible undertones -there was no need to post it. You didn't need to say that - you just did it to belittle me - and you did. I'm not going to waste my time on people who go in on me for nothing - particularly when you got it wrong. Hth

That's odd. Because there's a post from Spiderpig on here a few posts back who suggested that doubling up was kicking the fire doors in. I asked them for clarification when they made their post. Really don't appreciate you suggesting that I'm lying - as I've said before I stewarded for years which is why I asked for the clarification. Ps. No fucks given. I'd rather get on with enjoying tonights win. Have a nice night

Some people on here have suggested doubling up is kicking fire doors open when I thought it was two people going through the turnstiles at once And in all the years I was a steward at Fir Park I never saw anyone doubling up at the turnstiles The only time I saw it was at a Hamilton Celtic game

All I stated was in all my times of being a steward I only ever had one occasion where two people went through the turnstiles at one time. Someone else said doubling up was kicking the doors in to get access which is different from what I was talking about

Why would the club sell more tickets to a section than it can hold safely? As I said previously - someone else said that the thought a door had been kicked in - but there's nothing to evidence that. So why would Motherwell fc sell 500 more tickets than the stand can hold? It's not going to make that much in extra income. Surely if you buy a ticket online once the stand is sold out that's it. There isn't any evidence that we let 500 people in who shouldn't have been there - it's all conjecture BTW you are completely right that there shouldn't be people over crowding the stairwells - but that's a stewarding issue and if they are being prevented from doing their jobs something is wrong - and if the suggestion is that the fans were just left there incase they kicked off - that's also completely unacceptable.

Im not disagreeing with you here but speaking as someone who stewarded for a few years including at Fir Park crowd control is very much part of a stewards role. They absolutely can enforce crowd control measures and if they are being prevented from doing so that's a huge concern

Surely if people kicked open a door as someone else suggested earlier - we would have known about it - because the last time it happened it was filmed and put on social media

I don't disagree with you. But this isn't Motherwells fault I'm sure these fans will cause damage everywhere they go. Im very much of the view that we should cut their allocation

That has absolutely fuck all to do with the matter you emailed him about. The square root of fuck all.

What reason does Brian Caldwell have to lie? That's quite a big accusation

He replied to me when I emailed him over something - I think he's pretty hands on - to be fair other Motherwell ceos have been too

It's actually not that easy to go through the turnstiles two at a time. It happened to me once in several years of being a steward. It's a small space and not easy to do. As other people have said they got in by kicking fire exit doors open.

This is it

When I mentioned doubling up at turnstiles I thought it was two people going through the turnstiles at once but it's apparently people smashing the fire doors in to let others in? Is that right?

They can get a replacement easily if they don't see this. I lost mine the other week and I got a new one from the office for no cost. Hopefully theyll find this out if they don't see your post
