I see what you did there

That's the fellow

I would, like a shot.

Shocked and saddened by this news, like a few of the other oldies on here he was an early hero who never shirked a tackle or a fight. R.I.P Peter

That 4th goal showed why Bobby Graham was my favourite 'Well player of that era, sublime touch and vision

My understanding is that Lawless was going to get his chance when the window shut In January after Murphy signed for Blackpool, when that deal fell through it was too late for Lawless to go out on loan and he ended up kicking his heels for 6 months. When McCall realised that the whole SPL summer shambles meant that there was no guarantee he would be a regular this season, he allowed Lawless to leave to give him a chance to get first team football. A chance he has so far grasped with both hands. Whether he goes on toa great career then who knows, but good luck to the lad.

I thought that was the best part about European games As to the game, on the balance of play St. Mirren probably deserved something from the game, but until the Ref lost the plot in the last 10 minutes I was pretty confident of holding on. The whole Hutch - Thompson - drop ball carry on was a display of such incompetence that I thought Ian Brines was in charge

P GD Pts Hibernian 5 2 10 Ross County 5 2 9 Kilmarnock 5 3 8 Celtic 3 3 7 Dundee Utd 4 2 6 Hearts 3 2 5 Motherwell 3 1 5 St Mirren 3 1 4 Aberdeen 3 0 4 Inverness CT 4 -2 3 St Johnstone 5 -7 1 Dundee 5 -7 1 I'll take it Hibs,Ross County and Kilmarnock played their jokers today and doubled up to 6 points for a win! Made an arse of copying and pasting that then

Actually, I don't watch very much football outside of 'Well games. English and European games are packed full of overpaid twats cheating each other and the paying public with their OTT antics,it leaves me totally bored. Give me a good honest full bloodied scrap on a muddy Fir Park pitch any day. I have no idea how good or bad Levante, whether we have a good chance to progress or none at all. I just know I'll be at FP for the home game. (And that, after going to Athens , I have no chance of talking the wife into another away trip.)

Aye, my brother in law, I was too busy jumping about like a maddie. Best goal celebration since Fitzpatrick at Easter Road.

Jennings, been very impressive since he started playing regularly. Protects the defence and links with the forwards, a complete midfield performance today.

I think that the Sainsbury car park will be restricted on Match days, the Morrison's one certainly is. There is a big car park between the law courts and the ground, it is on the left as you approach Sainsbury's from Cadzow Street.

I have been trying to forget about both of them for years, you realise I won't sleep for weeks now. Thanks very much. Edit: I've just read the whole thread, thousands of pounds and years in therapy wasted, wiped out in the time taken to read three pages.

Any last minute winner, e.g. Fitzy at Easter Road is a great time to be a 'Well fan. The best feeling though, although not a goal, was the full time whistle in 1991, the realisation that after 28 years as a 'Well fan, that we had actually won something, and that no matter what happened in the future, that I had witnessed a Motherwell captain lift a trophy above his head, will live with me forever. What about a least celebrated goal thread? Me and my brother went to Smackhead for the first time (about 1978 ish) and ended up in the wrong end, Jim O'Rourke scored the only goal and we had to stand with our jacket sleeves stuffed into our mouths for 60 minutes while the best fans in the world (ha, ha, ha) got extremely pissed off at their incompetent strikers (ring any bells?) and then had to negotiate our way back to the train station with our scarves well and truly hidden from the smelly hoardes.

Mister Coke obviously

You were right there, seven minutes injury time Lot of good performances today ( not by the referee though ) and other than a ten minute spell just after they went down to ten men, as comfortable a one nil as you will see. I was a bit worried when Nade went off injured, I was scared they might send on a footballer to replace him I love it when we beat the Jambos

Several good performances today, but I thought the butler was excellent, just shading it from Hutchinson. Saunders, Reynolds, the Duke and O'Brien all did well too.

Hi Beerschot, and welcome aboard. t answer your questions: will we be able to buy tickets for this match on the day of the match? Yes, it will almost certainly be pay at the gate. how much in advance of the match should we come to the stadium (considering that we will have to take the train from Edinburgh)? The main Motherwell train station is about 20 minutes walk from Fir Park and is a relatively straight road, Airbles station is closer to the ground but is not on the Edinburgh line so you will need to change trains and what you save in walking time will probably be lost in waiting for the connection (worth doing though if the weather is bad) The other down side is having to walk through the town centre and seeing how run down it is now, especially since the Steelworks closed. what is the best stand to be in? The best view will be from the Main (Phil O'Donnell) stand although as it is the oldest, if you are quite tall your knees may be jammed on the seat in front. I sit in the Cooper stand which is behind one of the goals, the atmosphere is a bit subdued, but the seating is (in my opinion) the best of all three home stands. The East stand is converted terracing, so whilst it is the best one for atmosphere, the view can be poor if the action is taking place down in one of the corners on that side of the ground, and if the kids are coming with you they may learn some quaint Scottish expressions For a family I would definitely say to go for the Main or Cooper stands. any other things we should consider for our visit? Wrap up warm, it can get a bit chilly here in November, the nearest pub to the ground is Jack Daniels, which is on your route to the ground (more or less) the Cooper suite (a bar in the Cooper stand) is open pre and post match, it is supposedly for Season ticket holders only but they don't seem to bother too much about that. I hope you enjoy the experience (and witness a triumph for the mighty 'Well.)

I heard about this yesterday at Church and I am saddened by the suddenness of it all. My thoughts are with Elaine, Ale and Emma.

7.45 according to the official site.

Interestingly (and I'm sorry if this sounds like name dropping), I played golf with Willie Pettigrew last summer, just after the Rangers bid for Reynolds, and expressed the opinion that I'm sure was held by a lot of fans on here, namely that Reynolds would be better served staying at Fir Park and learning more by playing first team football. I was surprised that WP had a much more professional view, that Reynolds could lose form or get an injury that could mean he was finished with football and that the security that the Ranger's deal offered was too good to turn down, an opinion that I couldn't really argue with. Hopefully we were both right and that Mark can turn in some right good performances and get his big money move (hopefully not to the auld scum) which would be good for both club and player.

I started picking and choosing games when my girls were about 4, the oldest one couldn't be bothered and it was a constant case of "Dad, can I get, crisps \ juice \ sweets" I'm cold, I'm bored", etc and I rarely saw much of the second half of any game. The wee one, on the other hand, loved it, and now has a season ticket. It's pretty much down to the child, but I wouldn't take anyone as young as 18 months, and certainly not on a typical Scottish winters day. Pick an end of season game to test the water once you think she's old enough and take it from there.

Several good performances, but if anyone plays Kyle out of the game again this season as Hutchison did on Saturday I'll be very surprised. Hutchison for me.

Big bad Willie Watson I think, 118 minutes or something like that. I smiled all the way home

I am shocked and saddened with this news, my deepest condolences to his family.
