Big Stall

Its wasn't really for Flow to comment on the match abandoned though as Leeann has already addressed that issue. Some posters chose not to take her at face value but that's up to them. You do raise a good point about the society however and it is one that should probably be answered, although potentially the reason for silence is that we are not going to like the answers provided?? The other points, are not exactly deal breakers though. It would seem that some posters expect the club to be run perfectly 100% of the time. Sadly that doesn't happen, and even if it did, you can't please everyone, all the time. Really, people in general are just moaners, deep down, we all are. How many of us don't have a moan about goings on at work, or at least don't have colleagues who do? Even in the good times, you always find one or two miserable so and so's who are never happy. How many of us are members of golf clubs, bowling clubs, fishing clubs etc, and see the relevant Committee of Management get harangued from pillar to post, regardless of whether the club is actually being run well? Football clubs possess a special place for each and every one of us supporters, which is probably why the feelings of outrage seem to get magnified. The internet and forums like this give us all a direct line to spout our gripes, and importantly, read other peoples, which are all too often half baked. That fuels the fire and leads to nonsense that you read day in day out on here, nonsense which can for the most part be labelled panty wetting. I think your point about the lack of communication about the society does need to be addressed and taken separately from the day to day gripes. The daily moaners just need to calm down, take a look at what 'Flow posted and recognise the steps the club are taking.

Got to agree there. We had a team capable of winning the league& it was right there...

Great post by 'Flow. IMO

True, and that was before i watched the shambles in Brussels!

Holed cruise ships, Charlie Brown & brass instruments? Christ you really are melodramatic. Just as well its the internet, serious business after all!!

The tannoy said that everyone should collect a match abandoned voucher. The confusion isn't what the club announced, but apparantly what some stewards decided the procedure should be.

^The police tannoys fine. Its the main tannoy which is the problem. *That was in response to Gdalli10

To be honest I dont see the club making any profit (unless theres some insurance in place for abandoned games). Police, catering, security etc all have to be paid for again. If there is insurance in place so that the club dont lose out, then really it shouldnt matter if we had 4000 or 14000 fans getting in free to the rearranged game.

^Countdown to board meltdown.......

If you think theres no room at St Mirrens ground then you are too used to the facilities in America. I have no love for the Midden or their shitey/shiney stadium, but it certainly has more leg room than the rest of the competition

Youv been away too long. We can level many things at st mirren& all the other new grounds, but lack of leg room & general space, is not one of them!

Were they? I honestly never heard an announcement saying season ticket holders should not pick one up. Maybe I wasn't listening, or maybe the tannoy was just shite when that part went out, but the only thing I remember hearing was all spectators should collect a match abandoned voucher at the exit

Need to remember to build rivers of pish into the design!

If your not after making money out of it, then its probably wise to at least consider making it an online thing rather than binning it altogether. No printers costs, minimal web hosting. I suppose the only issue with it being online is the content. In this day and age there is always someone who will go out their way to be offended by something. Putting it online opens the gateways for the Blue and Green idiots to find it, drum up some outrage and pass it on to Keevins and co. Personally, at £1 I don't have a problem with buying it. Most of its a good read. Im quite surprised the sales are down, although I suppose with dwindling gates, the potential market is dropping as well. You could always jump into the 21st century, give it a spacebook page and twitter feed. Fans can link to it, their mates will see it, word will spread and you can more effectively market the next issue.

Old firm games aside, hasnt he created a good few goals this season?

I actually thought Ojamma was one of our better players in the 2nd half lastnight

The Lip

He came from the Rangers area& he looked like he was running at one of our boys

So the manager at the top of the league is a ****? Fucksake, give yersels a shake

While your stats are probably correct, goals are not everything. How many of higgys goals have been created by Ojamma for instance?

A whole lot of over reaction in this thread. If that was the most gutless Motherwell performance youv ever seen, then you havent been to many games. Christ, given the amount of ibrox humpings iv watched us get over the years, that one almost felt half decent! Facts are we were outdone by 2 silly mistakes and our inability to shoot. People are saying McCall didnt have us up for it? You obviously missed Randolph going nuclear at the 2nd goal or Hutchy getting stitches over and over rather than just asking to be subbed. I also thought that Ojamma put in a good shift in the 2nd half. Thats not to say that some of our players didnt have a bad game. Humphrey was abysmal& Cummins as much as he has done well since his introduction, could be doing with another year spent as backup. Time to get ramsden back in or give page his chance. As others have said, Hately needs to be back at RB. Its a pain in the arse to get beat and we will all get a slagging at work, uni, college, school, pub etc off our currant bun pals. But wev all been dishing it out to them all summer so its time to suck it up. We are still top of the SPL and its a diddy cup anyway! PS - The smoke bomb was stinking but i loved it anyway, would have been top drawer had we taken the lead and set that thing off!

So if we get put out the diddy cup by a team with 4times our wage bill, you will turn on the manager despite the fact we will still be top of the spl, got 3rd last season & a cup final the year before?? Glad we dont claim like celtic to be the greatest fans in the world!

Nothing wrong with the statement IMO.

For probably the first time ever, certainly the first time since wee Tam's tenure, man for man we are as strong or better than Rangers in every area of the park. On paper we should wipe the floor with them, but saying that, on paper any team with a wage bill dwarfing the opposition should be expecting a crushing victory over us! I hope we win, infact, I would Kevin Keegan style love it if we pissed all over them in their own back yard. I don't think it will be as easy as that however. The fans, and players are going to be 100% up for this one. They will know that they can't expect to turn up and scud us as they expect the div3 teams. Whilst I'll be dissapointed if we lose, unlike some of the reactionaries on here it won't be the end of the world. The one thing that will really annoy me is if we don't set out to take the game to this mob. They are there for the beating and every team so far has set up to get stuck into them. We are far better than any team they have faced so far so lets show them. I really want McCall to let the team off the leish this time, none of the play it safe mentality here. If we get beat by really going at them then so be it, but give us the chance to have a right good crack at them!

As much as skippy turned out to be a badge kissing wee c**t, he did a great turn for both teams
