Big Stall

You could have checked yer spelling though - culinary!

And Fraser conceeded against Falkirk as well.

^No, the tv revenue would be crap and we'd still probably get pumped out. We find it hard enough going to darkheid in the league, never mind a european night. A big German mob, would mean a good trip and good tv money. That would be ideal. Obviously it means we wouldnt be making the group stages, but I can't see that happening anyway.

Well, it would sort out this nonsense about do we/should we use contracts for managers.

Not that it would really make a difference, the quality of teams that will be in that pot will mean any scottish team outwith the old firm, would be unseeded at that stage.

If that is at all true its fucking awesum. One of my mates is a Dundee United fan and proper fundamentalist. I will enjoy telling him we'd be seeded higher than them should we make it through to the final qualifying round.

Why would we be going into the 2nd round? Surely United are 3rd round, Hibs 2nd and us 1st?? Or am I missing something here?

No letter for me either. I phoned them yesterday, they appologised and said they'd put a new one in the post. They also thanked me for letting them know.

Dundee United did their main job, they won the diddy league and won it with games to spare. They had nothing else to play for in the league, so fair play to them keeping players fit for the final. All the mock outrage on here counts for fuck all. If we were in the same position, we'd be expecting Craig and Archie to do the same thing. Dundee United and their fans are delusional c***s, but IMO they absoutley did nothing wrong here!

Still no renewal letter dropping through my door although I did get an email from the club to an email address I gave them 3 years ago, and not the one they always used to send the club updates too!

Even if Klimpl had a contract with us, Im 100% sure his style would not have met with Gannons philosphy and he would have been frozen out anyway until Christmas at least.

Unless its the box you go down in, and you end up winning us a hatfull of penalties!

Not if the news is 3year contracts agreed for Ruddy and the Juke it won't!

Not only that, if you are a decent enough customer, sometimes the company will likely offer you a new interest free period every now and again. A good few times I've phoned up Barclaycard and told them I have a big purchase and Im about to go get a card from one of their competitors to take advantage of interest free periods. I asked them if they could do anything, it obviously triggered alarm bells with them and they give me a new 6-9 month interest free window. Basically I have a card for buying big goods on, and my barclaycard who can be relied upon to give me the interest free window as long as I pay them the transfer charge - usually 2-3%. Of course one day this won't work and I will have to go out and get a fresh card.

Grass on the park would be nice.

Totally with you, but...... if the Ravenscraig masterplan is ever realised and brought to completion with residential, retail and business facilities, a new Fir Park with all the add ons will be in an ideal spot to milk all the benefits under the sun that Rugby Park could never manage.

Read his reply to me, guess I wasn't making up stories!

Remember when you changed your name to Motherwell Football Club, you came on here and said you'd met some of the players at the cinema or something. They spoke to you and when you were walking away you heard one call you a gimp, that wasn't John Ruddy was it???

Where does JOB fit into all of this though? Granted he put in a shift yesterday but the amount of moaning and shouting at his team mates when they fucked up and didnt pass to him was unbelievable. Maybe if the guy was Messi, but there was numerous occassions he himself fucked up. If none of his fellow players are going to shout back at him, should those of us in the stand just give him a free pass??

But youv never saw Yaasin have a bad game, or Ruddy do anything to suggest he's better than Michael Fraser either.

Paying more for the priviledge of standing up would be a good one. At the very least it would generate an 60 page thread on here!

To be honest its a daft question, a bit like turkeys voting for christmas. In every aspect of life if you ask someone how much they should pay etc, they will always want to pay less and get more in return. We all want to pay a tenner, but if the club can only break even/maintain working cashflow on £18+ then thats what its got to be.

ps, I'll be renewing mine and really hoping Brown can surprise me again. I never once thought he could turn us around the way he has done, and Im still worried that he will be nowhere near the scout that Gannon was, but never say never. 2010-11 Mon the 'well!!

I blame Yaas for any error Ruddy may have made up until 2010.
