Only god bit of news to come from that is that I'll not be working for the Old Firm game. Surprised they have decided to make that a tuesday night. Back to Motherwell, looks like we've been shafted big time. The sooner we do away with the split the better it's a fucking joke.

Fucking pish. If that means we are playing an extra away game then who has the extra home game? Looks like I've already been to my last game this season, doubt I'll get off work for either of the 2 home games.

2-1 Well

Not surprised by that. Both Hammell an Las have seen that it's all downhill after leaving Motherwell. Were always going to be first 2 agreeing to stay. Good news though.

If your wanting Ruddy dropped then we would have to drop Duke for the same reasons. Can't afford to do either. Ruddy stays in.

For me, O'Brien should learn to shut the fuck up and concentrate on contributing something. He's forever running into trouble, then moaning like fuck at the ref, or just moaning at a team-mate for mot passing the ball to him.

I'm not defending his fitness. He would do a good job in centre mid, and has done earlier in the season. He hasn't got the pace for left mid, so should really be working on his acceleration over the first few yards to stand any chance of getting past players if the ball is played infront of him.

Do you like it hard and fast? Edit: Ah, beaten to it. He's been played out of position. Could be a good player in centre mid but clearly doesn't have the pace to play left mid.

Fraser. Made two brilliant saves. Only other player to come close would probably be Sutton. Won all his headers and knock ons, but no-oneelse was getting close enough to him to work off any of it.

Disappointed with the loss and a poor performance, but not getting too worked up considering the run we have been on recently. The atmosphere today would have made you think Falkirk were about to climb above us and put us bottom of the league. Really no need to the reaction as far as I can tell. There have been plently of games this season were both teams have been just as shite as today but we managed to get the breaks and the 3 points. Hamilton, St Mirren and the other Falkirk home game to name a few. Falkirk harried us and got the breaks today, simple as. We sat down the Cooper end of the East today, because we took my wee sister, and I've never heard so much pish spouted in all my life. The place is full of fucking mutants. King of whom seems to be some c**t who thinks it's hilarious to shout 'shoot' everytime Craigan or Ruddy/Fraser had the ball. That might be slightly amusing first time round but about 10 times during the game is taking it a bit far. Then when we were trying to keep the ball on the deck, string a few passes together and work our way into the game he was wanting the ball 'punted up the park'. Unsurprisingly when we went long he was moaning to 'keep it on the ground'. He wasn't the only one coming out with that same shite though. Make your fucking mind up cuntos. The guy sitting behind me made the comment just at the start of the second half that 'Ruddy better be injured, otherwise that's a waste of a substitution by Brown'.

3-0 against 10 men. Get a fucking grip Motherwell That's fucking embarrasing. Sounds like Ruddy is having a howler.

Just incase anyone was intending up that way, there are road works aplenty at the Forth Road Bridge, seemingly.

I'm sure I heard a manager say recently (Butcher I'm sure, maybe Mowbray) that he was struggling to get any loans from down south as they can't return/be recalled outside the transfer window, unlike if they are loaned out to another English club.

He can't be recalled just now because the transfer window is shut and it's a cros border transfer. Nothing to get worried about, yet.

Christ. A contact that can actually be put to use to achieve something.

Was it not at the World Cup in Germany? One of the new stadiums (Schalke's I think) has the big screen's overhanging the pitch, and Paul Robinson managed to blooter it a few times with his kick outs Here y'are.

YES!!!

I know you only post pish like this all the time for some tit to bite, but I'm going to... Didn't he take a pay cut to stay when we went into administration, then knock back several offers to move for more money afterwards? I'd say after that and all the years service he gave us he would be entitled to start thinking about moving on.

I think he was talking about the state of their finances and the fact they had to be bailed out by the league to complete their fixtures. Edit: Plus it was the SPL's rules that forced Gretna into a ground share anyway. If it hadn't been us then the problems would just have been transferred to Killie or whereever they were forced to play.

I'd expect Aberdeen to be investigated as well as the others mentioned. Their pitch is in a terrible state. Most of the pitches in the league are in a similar state, but we are being picked on because we have previous. Some might say that's meritted, but surely they must be able to spot that there seem to be a common recurrence throughout the country. So the 1 game we have had postponed this season, due to burst pipes in the stands and fuck all to do with the pitch, makes the pitch an embarrasment?

It's Jim Traynor's phone in usually. Chic stands in whenever he's not there. Lesser of two evils I'd say.

Went for Sutton. He's been on a good run of form and his link up play and holding the ball up really helped bring Murphy into the game. Jennings and Lasley were brilliant in the middle again and Coke had a decent game linking up with them too.

I thought Miller's red card was a bit harsh TBH. Need to see it again. Was fully expecting O'Brien to follow him though for his reaction.

There was a picture in one of the papers today that looked like it might be a Motherwell v Hamilton skills school. Must be on next weeks, it's Cardiff tomorrow seemingly.
