I'll go for a solid performance and a 2-1 or a 2-0 win. The Kilmarnock performance has given me some fresh optimism.

What was the result of the meeting? Any progress?

It's not the greatest of draws, but the Inverness game is all i'm thinking about just now. We may not have to worry about Kilmarnock/Falkirk.

This kind of thing happens to clubs all over Europe all the time, so why should we be any different? In fact, i'm fairly certain that there have been instances of us doing exactly the same thing to smaller clubs as well. Like someone said, if he moves to Celtic, he'll likely get a bonus for signing, plus more wages than he'll get from us. I can't see where he's being badly advised there.

I thought a thread for general questions would be quite useful. The first port of call for any questions should obviously be the Trust website, which, although currently a work in progress, provides a good idea of what the Trust does and who's involved. Anything which isn't answered there can hopefully be answered in this thread.

He always seemed to be a decent enough keeper to me. I reckon he'd probably prefer sitting on the 'Well bench to playing in the lower divisions as well.

What happened to that keeper who was playing for Accies a few seasons ago? McEwan, was it? He looked pretty decent, and he wasn't all that old either.

I'd rather we kept Brown than appointed MacPherson.

Can you point me to the bit where I made any reference to anything that you said? I was taking a jovial wee dig at Joe. I like your comment about MST "cheerleaders" though.

Things are that tight at both ends of the table that a few wins could see us push back up the table again. I've got every faith that an experienced duo such as Brown & Knox can turn things around over the coming few months.

It may have one again shortly. It's been suggested in the relevant section of the forum, and hopefully it'll get the green light shortly. At least then Joe and co. will have somewhere to post reports of their cushy corporate matchdays and private drinking sessions with the chairman

A win is sorely needed just now, and it's always a bit more special to get three points against Accies.

The full 90 minutes of the game will be shown on BBC Alba on Saturday night. Still, it's the kind of game you really want to be at.

I wonder what kind of legal stuff he may be looking into. If he hasn't signed a contract with the club, and didn't sign the deal that was offered to him, then what claim does he have?

No one is "forcing" anything onto anyone. It's simply a matter of having an alternative to the unhealthy shite they serve there at present. If you don't want to buy the healthy option, then stick with the pies.

And those guys were fans of Celtic or Rangers before that? I've never known anyone in their late teens to switch alliances from either of the OF to Motherwell, with the exception of the old "ach, i'll go and watch them now and then since it's cheap this week and they are my wee local team" carry-on.

More than likely with the aim of catching us when we are ever so slightly out of sorts.

He always struck me as the ideal candidate for club captain, as he seems pretty well spoken, and has the "long serving veteran" status as well. Reynolds would be another good choice, unless rumours of him leaving soon are true.

I'm guessing that your guess could very well be correct. I wasn't aware that he had said that during the McGhee era. Either that or I may be getting a tad forgetful in my old age

Yeah, I saw the advertisement for the panel night, and was hoping to make it along. From what I heard, it went very well.

I doubt the club would be in the financial position to be able to overhaul the stand anyway, so there isn't much point in looking for something along those lines. Maybe a few small improvements here & there, such as the catering service and a repair to some of the toilets, would be affordable? We could see some improvements without having to completely overhaul the stand, which I agree would take away some of it's appeal.

I'll be there. As soon as you have a fixed date, just let me know the details. A section of the forum would be ideal for keeping everyone up to date with meetings and other goings-on as well.

I'm guessing his view may have changed when Gannon got bumped.

I was thinking more along the lines of an area for discussion such as this, where ideas could be discussed and kicked around by the forum collectively. Maybe it would be worth trying such a section again on a trial basis, see if we can't get more people involved. Twenty odd heads are better than one and all that...
