  1. They are all well aware of this forum and it's previous guise. The biggest problem with the Trust is that people are quick to snipe at it but the Board has always been under strength in numbers it could have on the Board. Each year there are Board Members who have to be re-elected but there are never enough Trust Members wanting to get involved with the Board and it means they get put back on automatically if they stand. Trust Members have always moaned about how the Trust is run but very few every look to try and change it. To change it you need to be involved with the Board. There are people on the Board that are now on and nearing the end of the 2nd term on the Board, some may even have started their 3rd. If you want to change it you need to stand for election at the AGM. In the past people have thought they could do change it but when they get on board they find that there is too few people in place to do the job the way they thought it could be don, too little new blood to try and get the changes they want through. When 'Flow and I were n the Board the Supporters Trust and the Supporters Assocaition were so far apart from each other. I hoped this was changing when they started working together for the Phil Memorial but I don't know. Frazzle and Tweed came on just before I had to leave as work commitments were taking over and I couldn't make meetings. They seemed to have a drive to get things done, starting with the Phil Memorial but if they have now left, even after getting another couple of bodies on board to help then I fear this might be the end of the Trust. One thing I will say for the folk on the Board is they do it for nothing, in their own time and they do it because they support Motherwell FC and want to help. There is a lot of small things that the Trust have helped out with over the years. They very rarely knock back anything that the Club ask for. They were asked to help out with the disabled section improvements by Ian Stillie and we said Yes, there was money already sitting in the Pitch In account which was set up for such projects and the idea was to start fundraising when the go ahead was officially given. Then Ian left and things went up in the air. So I don't know what the current situation is. Over the years, the club has asked for help with goals, kit bags, towels, tables for the physio etc and it's all been given. One of the youth teams was also sponsored. It all may sound like small things but they have helped relieve the financial burden on the club as it came out of administration and beyond. All this and more could be found on their website if it was working.
  2. Seeing as 'Flow is n here debunking rumours and spoiling our fun, JG and JB are in a secret bunker somewhere dealing with our new right back who is going to represent us at the draw to make sure it's done fairly and that the Celtic and Rangers balls are kept part?
  3. But we still haven't signed a right back, that'll give them something to complain about.
  4. Wonder if JG will be looking at Peter Gilbert from Oldham. Just seen he has been released by them as they can only offer him week to week terms. He's looking for a bit more stability. Would imagine he's someone that JG would know about as well. He's a left back as well, so if anything did happen and Hammy left it may be a possibility. The fact that he is now free agent would also mean he wouldn't have to be signed up today. No indication or inside knowledge, just noticed that he had been released. Wonder if another League One player may tempt JG. Profile
  5. The Express reports that both Dundee and Accies have tabled bids yesterday of around £40K but that Stevie has rejected the moves to stay and fight for his place and see out his contract.
  6. Already been mentioned in the Ins and Out threads as well as the Summer Transfers thread in Other Football.
  7. RIght that's enough time on this thread. Now closed.
  8. Good Luck to the Humphrey's hope everything is okay.
  9. I still haven't seen us playing this season. Car trouble on the way to the game has meant I've had to return home. I am absolutley gutted at missing this.
  10. I'll be missing yet another home tie, this time in Wrexham. looks like I'll be paying for Internet access tonight.

    Looks like someone above has decided the best team ever was the team that won the '91 Cup. RIP Mowgli
  12. This from The Sun today. I have been away all week and I come back to this controversy. I can see where he's coming from we are talking about it only being lowly Motherwell with players, who lets face it couldn't score in a brothel. Then again maybe it's just sour grapes as they won't be getting an easier team.
  13. Yea, but surely if we play Wednesday we have a good chance of winning by more than 2. We could be 10* nil up before the game kicks off on Thursday. *Only the striker is allowed to score and it must be from more than 6 yards away.
  14. Another trip beyond the old Iron Curtain IF we can overturn last nights result.
  15. Have a good trip. Enjoy the game and stay out of the Liro Bar. We want to hear about the game after all.
  16. They have been offered a trial starting next week. Also reported in the Express was loan enquiries for John Ruddy (Everton), Fraser Foster (Newcastle) and Richard Eckersley (Man U)
  17. 6th I believe plus they won a Cup Final.
  18. that was 20 years ago. These days it sounds like they are bit like us playing a load of young ones.
  19. That's the beauty of this forum, you start a thread and can't tell how it'll end up.
  20. Ticket Information I won't make it as I'll be in Cruachan for a week and not finishing until at least 8pm. We had better make the league stages otherwise I won't see us play in Europe this season.
  21. Sorry guys but showing the photos of the alleged assailants and naming their user id's has seen this thread tidied up. All photos and any posts relating to these have been removed. These actions can bring legal action against the site. We have already had one complainant stating he'll take it to the police. Don't go naming them or showing their photos on here please.
