  1. He certainly ran around if that's what you mean, but I can think of very few examples of him providing 'drive'. Phil O'Donnell provided drive, Alan Campbell provided drive. Dean Cornelius did not.
  2. In the mid 70s, I had two old guys who sat behind me who actually said that week in week out about Willie Pettigrew !!!!!
  3. Strikers come and strikers go. Sutton, Higdon, Moult and even Watt didn't score goals before or after their time with us that they did while with us. KVV scored 12 in 59 games prior to joining us. Moult had never scored a goal for a 'league' side. Trust the manager to buy well and remember that previous 'form' isn't always an indicator of how a striker will perform.
  4. If he is, he's advising him really badly 😁
  5. He didnt say that though, did he ? Did he not say that no one outside Rangers and Celtic could afford him ?
  6. After his success with his brother's Direct Holidays company sale, JB made several attempts at taking over the business world, all ending in failure and loss. His Motherwell 'experiment' wasn't unique.
  7. Yup, agreed. Stayed there 4 or 5 times when over for World Superbikes in Assen. great wee place, apart from the abundance of students 🙂
  8. According to capology, Groningen only have 2 players getting paid above £6K
  9. Sasa Curcic was anything but dross. Completely off his head, but a brilliant footballer in his day.
  10. A little bit of badge kissingand some pish about 'being delighted to be back at the biggest club in the world' and they'll be back singing folk songs about him again. Managing an EPL club outside of the top four or five is a no win situation (except financially). Every club picks up the best part of £100 Million from TV annualy and the top teams (the ones that win things) are spending many more times that. Living within your means in the EPL will probably result in relegation.
  11. Hell of a finish to the 90 (+) mins though
  12. Messi is 2" smaller than Tierney as well. You don't half talk some pish.
  13. Wrong, Tierney is 2" taller than Iniesta.
  14. I'm sure if Iniesta had been Scottish, he'd have been told he wouldn'y make it and to go and play with the lassies....
  15. Jordan White is having a shit night though 🙂
  16. Lawleff passing like Messi in the play off......
  17. is Obika not up at the end of the season and Mandron has another year or have I got that the wrong way round ??
  18. I was dead level with Spittal in the POD stand. Was it KVV who passed (or Goss, canny remember) but Spittal made the run and the pass was just delayed by a step or two. Was clear from where we were sitting. Shame though, good run and cross. Canny believe some of the negativity on here man. We''ve taken what, 30 pts from 13 games ? WTF more does anyone want ? Do you think the run that say, Aberdeen have been on recently has all been Spanish style silky soccer, or have they maybe ground out most of their results ? You extrapolate even 80% of the last 13 games form over a season and where would that put us ? Get a fuckin' grip and enjoy what we've achieved since Kettlewell came in.
  19. can you still pay cash at the gate these days or do you need to buy online ? (In the Phol O'Donnel).
  20. Lawleff with a cool finish to make it 4-0 Thistle.....
  21. OK, that wasn't the best performance or result, but regardless of what anyone says about maintaining standards, that team (and manager) in 10 games, took us from what some on here described as 'certain relegation' to total safety and an away draw in what was, in reality, a virtual meaningless game. I think, rather than any negativity, a lot of credit is due to everyone for the position we found ourselves in prior to kick off last night. had that been a game we had to win to get out of the play off spot (as an exmple) then I could understand people being down about it.
  22. Was just looking at that. I'd have liked to see Killie going down, to get rid of a plastic pitch.
  23. Looked onside from the angle we saw the replay. Also looks red cardy to me.
