  1. It can only be McFadden. No one comes close despite playing well.
  2. I'll just dismiss that as completely made up bullshit from the Scottish press. Sheff Utd bound if he doesn't stay with us.
  3. Cummins and Kerr are both like a hybrid of Kevin Christie , Dave Bus & Stephane Bonnes
  4. Darkness everybody, Darkness.
  5. Welcome to Chinatown bitches.
  6. I may have mixed up Austria with Switzerland, but all of the post remains correct.
  7. Maybe someone raising this point as I won't make it on Saturday; Why do the board feel that this is the only alternative available to the National Game in this Country? A similar system was attempted and spectacularly failed in Austria. A Country of almost 9 million, a Country that is one of the richest in the World, A Country that was not entering a triple dip recession, a Country with a decent TV deal, A Country that has not seen fans walk away in their droves for the last 20 years and one that has a more thoroughly spread demographic of football supporters. Why would we then try to implement something that is absolutely guaranteed to fail? The proposal will drive more and more fans away from the game, something all Clubs in Scotland can ill-afford at this time. Is this proposal solely designed to entertain and cater to the needs of arm chair fans? As it is against the will of probably 95% of those who pay to watch football in their respective stadia. If the Clubs of Scotland get this wrong, they will have all but killed professional football in this Country.
  8. Scotland v Estonia & U21's v Greece that night.
  9. Beppe Signori. One of the best penalty takers of all time.
  10. Shaun Teale - Penalty taker extraordinaire.
  11. With a move to England you were probably looking at minimum £350-400k development fee, and considering the player's history, probably more. Ludicrous to accept pittance unless we are getting a cracking sell on clause and shit hot add ons.
  12. They are definitely going to be in the running for promotion and can pay substantially higher wages than Blackpool can, the very fact that they are massive club, with plenty of cash behind the scenes will also sway any SPL player.
  13. We are quickly becoming Utd's feeder team, Law has also agreed to sign for them.
  14. It's ridiculous to be suggesting that we jettison McCall after what he has achieved(so far) at Motherwell. By all means, some constructive criticism is acceptable and he is certainly man enough to admit that he gets it wrong from time to time, a trait that gets my full respect. We are playing in front of dwindling crowds, budgets are being narrowed year upon year regardless of performance and we struggle to compete with low end League 1/top League 2, even Blue Sq teams with a sugar daddy in some cases, for wages. Yet despite all of this, we are still one of the best sides in the SPL. Under Stuart McCall our league form for the most part, is the most consistently high level I can remember since the heady days of the mid nineties when we had plenty of cash. I hate the shite defeats to Celtic, The Zombies and recently the poor Cup performances as much as the next man, but these aren't a new occurrence for Motherwell FC. Calling for his head is outrageous in the extreme and is so far off the mark it's fuckin' unreal!
  15. 27 more caps than he should have, more an indication of how terribly inadequate Scotland are at the back. A shite player and I've always looked forward to Motherwell playing a team with him in it as our strikers have been raping him over the course of his career. He has the turning circle of the Emma Maersk, pace of an amputee and can only play a long ball forward in the hope that someone gets on to it, usually causing his side to gift possession straight back to the opposition, but hey, he's good in the air...
  16. Garry Kenneth is an experienced SPL centre half with International experience as is Zander Diamond and both of them are absolutely horrific players. Webster is bollocks and has only one pass in his locker.
  17. McGowan would be a welcome addition, but nae chance of it happening. Taouil has been shite for Hearts though isn't a bad player, but Grainger is brutal.
  18. Plays for Carlisle at present, that's why he's stayed local.
  19. It's not a rumour... People can then let it grow wings if they like, but the initial point stands.
