I think we have bottle. I don't think we capitulated to Celtic the last twice we lost at Fir Park. In fact given that we always seem to avoid relegation sometimes by the skin of our teeth I think that's one thing Motherwell has.
-
Possibly because they dont have the money to put into the club that we need. I completely agree with your view but right now I just want investment in the club because we badly need it. I support the well society but it isn't enough in my view
-
They used to do this if you bought a season ticket. There would be a discount book on the back. However some companies also give discount to season ticket holders and don't promote it as well as they could. When I was a member of nl leisure I had no idea having a season ticket would have got me a discount.

Well as long as it's sorted for the next vote that's the main thing.. not trying to say what happened was ok but seems to be more than one person who didn't get all the emails.
-
Surely though the percentage given in the email was of the people eligible to vote. The junior members will have been taken out of the equation before that percentage was calculated.
-
I would expect turnout was low for a few reasons tbh. I got the email. I voted. I also spoke to one of the well society board privately - not over this issue, something else. I completely get the point you are making - and personally I think that efforts are being made to engage with fans now face to face - but this could have happened a lot sooner. And yes. I agree that at home games is the way to do it as well - because folk are already going to watch the match as opposed to going to a meeting on a midweek night. The bottom line is for me at least - this was about the future of my clubs investment, so I voted. I expect more people will vote when there's more information about the investment options (that's just my opinion though).
-
We don't know - but surely the Society can clarify.
-
People had the option to vote and some clearly didn't take it. I personally don't think that should make the outcome of the vote less valid.
-
Sorry. Misread.
-
I got a vote and I've never paid a lump sum.
-
Someone's just posted the results of the vote on pie and bov. The vote went in favour of fans considering voting in support of the society losing it's majority share. Email been sent to members.

Absolutely this. Him and Slattery were getting slated all over social media... (Don't know about here as I wasn't posting or reading)Maybe deservedly so. Glad to see him doing well. Think the entire team just lost confidence
-
I'm not misty eyed. I'd just like him to stay
-
See to be honest with you - if he gets a move, he'll have earned it. But we've been in this situation before many times before and the club always carries on, no option. Having said that - I hope he stays and I hope we offer Slattery new terms too. I think Spittal has always been decent but the entire teams form dipped after we lost to Celtic at the end of September - when I was coming home from a Muse gig in Manchester and the coach was already four hours delayed - brilliant. They got the winner just as I eventually got on the bus. Great day that As I've said so many times before this season at least my brothers pal who takes my season when I can't go hasn't had to watch us get beat - I think they've seen us win once in any game I've not been able to make.

Not really given how tight the league is.
-
The seethe on twitter tends to start as soon as the team is announced.
-
I've said this elsewhere. Someone posted on Facebook that this was covered at the AGM and it does seem to be bad luck. Apparently Slattery caught his studs in the grass. And I'm speaking as someone who isn't a footballer obviously but I had a grade two calf tear five years ago at a bootcamp. I was asked to do a certain exercise. We all were. I tore my calf. No one else did. I ended up on crutches for three months Injuries can be random. It doesn't always have to be about nutrition or training methods.
-
According to someone on Facebook this was covered at the AGM and it does seem to be bad luck. Apparently Slattery caught his studs in the turf and that's what caused his injury. I completely agree with you but I do think it has just been bad luck.
-
I didn't actually know that. I just paid the fiver as it was all I could afford and they must have added the low income option after I joined. That's fair enough though. I can afford the fiver and I'll get my mum signed up tomorrow.
-
Var really needs to get in the bin
-
I'd personally go for A this season but preferably higher.
-
I've been a well society member since 2018 and Ive been paying a fiver a month ever since because that's all I could afford. That option was on offer to me then. I think my mum is going to join as well. She was going to after the video. They do have a 3 quid a month option for people on low incomes which is also good.
-
I completely agree with you. I don't think we have enough well society members to sustain this model. I want to see outside investment
-
I dont pay at the gate these days but is a game the same price no matter who we play if someone was paying cash all season round ? From recollection it maybe used to fluctuate a bit. Apparently according to some Motherwell fans on twitter there were Celtic fans in our end. Nothing new but surely that needs to be stopped. I know it's hard to stop in practice. Particularly as we have empty seats in our stands and people can buy online
-
Probably we aren't allowed to. Pretty sure other fans have damaged the seats in the south stand also. Maybe Hibs fans from recollection. I could be wrong but I don't think it's just rangers and Celtic fans who have damaged the seats in that stand.
