A few seasons ago we were asked to pay more to help ease the loss of Rangers. Now we are asked to pay more for the privilege of watching them. I don't quite understand that. There would have been plenty of discussion around the pricing structure but I think the club have arrived at a poor decision. At a time when the club are on the brink of fan ownership and the WS are appealing to squeeze more money out the core support, a freeze to ST prices would have been a welcome decision. If I let my head rule my heart, I'll not be getting a ST as it no longer represents value and is solely a badge of loyalty.

I don't like this categorising of games. I assume we are talking Rangers, a game that some fans will stay away from. If you make 15 games a ST is becoming less justifiable, particularly if the flexi ticket becomes an option.

Surprised by the increase.

I was actually amazed by how relatively strong Campbell looked. He's come on a fair bit since I last seen him and closer to the first team than I thought.

If McGhee thinks he's good enough then yes of course.

Dylan Falconer represented Scotland u15s in 2014. Can't recall hearing of any Scotland call-ups since.

Moore did break in to the team at a young age before a horrific injury. If he's fully recovered from that, then he will have a future at Motherwell. Given that his striking buddy ended up at Leeds, I hope he gets a chance with us again.

A special night for following the 'Well. We've had some real quality bubbling under the surface the last 2/3 years and glad all concerned were rewarded tonight. Loving the love for Campbell, the boy is dynamite. Craigan and Lasley pinpointed him at the beginning of the season and done a terrific job developing him. Bumped into Moult on the way out, great to see the majority of the 1st team there. Real togetherness about the club just now.

Developers are spending considerable time battling for planning permission to build 1,000+ homes across other parts of Motherwell. Meanwhile they don't touch the vast space at Ravenscraig with a barge pole. Think that tells its only story regarding concerns over land. Was there not a protest recently too to ensure a school didn't get built there?

I'm no sure Jack would get in the team. Expect Robbie to feature.

It's been getting continually developed for years though with the majority of plans failing to come to fruition.

Looking for a new house in the Motherwell area so I could come round to the idea of Fir Park being sold to a developer. Don't fancy Motherwell moving to Ravenscraig though, such a grim part of town.

This surprises me as I assumed he had a good head on his shoulders in order for McGhee to propel him ahead of Laing, Kennedy and to a lesser extent, Watt. Infact one of the few pieces I've read on him was how he struggled with a bout of homesickness and was grateful to Motherwell staff for helping him knuckle down. We'll see what happens. We've handed out deals too early to young ones in the past.

Regarding Hall, as much as the early signs are very promising, I'd be surprised if any Scottish club was willing to pay a development fee plus significantly higher wages than Motherwell.

I can't see Hibs being in much trouble financially due to cup runs. However I'd be surprised if the likes of Hall would be interested in leaving Motherwell for a Hibs team that could still be in the championship.

Wonder who else is in for Hall then, I presumed Rangers was nothing more than a lazy rumour. Given the unexpected opportunity McGhee presented to him and the NI connection you'd think he'd be happy here. If he left, we'd be due a 6 figure sum eh?

Thought Ben Hall strolled through the game today. He is definitely out of contract aye?

McDonald and Cadden really impressive in midfield while Marvin showed some neat tricks. McManus motm though, he's had a good season.

Not the most memorable game but job done. Shame there isn't more to play for at the moment as we are in really decent shape. Leitch running out of chances to earn a new contract. Looked out his depth today.

I can't see Ripley being anyway other than the English championship next season.

I'd agree with this. I do hope though that we can find a couple of players with a Moult/Johnson profile in the midfield and fullback positions. This would allow a transitional spell to taper the game time of Lasley and Hammell while still making the most of their talent, experience and leadership.

New sponsor is unsurprising but pleasing. What's the script with a 3rd shirt? Anniversary?

Strangely, I've had no bother with the quality of either this season. Actually think they've been an upgrade on recent efforts.

When's the last time we'll have went a season without beating them? Hopefully we have Pearson and Laing available. Looking forward to this after missing the Celtic game but I'm more excited about next Wed.
