If it's on TV anywhere, it will be online somewhere, and Myp2p.eu is as good a shout as any to find it. It's trial and error though until you find a decent quality stream, or one that doesn't get cut off.

This forum came about when the happy-clappies left FPC. I sometimes go on the messageboard there, but the layout gets on my tits. This one's better, cos we have compost corner and Kylie and Al B's avatars.

If you set your formation to be strong in one area, it will naturally weaken another. Did Hamilton and Aberdeen not have 4-man midfield's against us? Playing wingers is all well and good, but it won't make much of a difference if they're shite. We're going to struggle regardless of the formation against Celtic, a lot will depend on whether we approach the game looking to have a go or whether it's damage limitation.
-
Who knows how they'll pan out over the next few months but I think that considering that some of these guys may have been plan b,c,or d, they have done pretty well so far. They address the areas the manager highlighted as needing cover and may just give some of the tired legs a rest and allow some rotation in the squad. Especially with Jones, Hammell and Saunders all coming back to full fitness.
-
Canning's arms were around Sutton, giving him a pretty good excuse to go down. Canning could have avoided this by not putting his arms on Sutton. I hate the term "winning a penalty" but as long as everyone else is doing it, we should be.
-
Do Jennings or Lasley have th pace to play wide? Are they that much quicker than Forbes?
-
Ok, but Humphrey has both and still gets slated. Shivute had both in abundance, along with all these "no end product types" I think you need more than those two things tbh. Fitness can be worked on, pace is overrated, but you either have talent or you don't.
-
Playing the same XI as the Aberdeen game we'll take the lead after 12 minutes when Forbes pings a bad clearance from a corner (which he took) off the bar, and then Sutton taps in from the resulting scramble. We will then miss multiple chances, but after a scare from an Accies corner which is cleared off the line (and their protestations that a hand was used) Murphy breaks up the park and scores just before half time. I don't know what happens in the second half, sorry.
-
Also good to hear Hately get some good reviews. Looks like right back is the best place for him? Hopefully we see more of Hately, Murphy and Forbes all being played in their best positions, and they can show what they can do and get a few folk off their backs.
-
McCall said in his interview that we played a "diamond" so I guess he played in a more central position, with Jennings sitting deep and either Murphy or Jeffers playing in "the hole".
-
If Ross Forbes got man of the match, as well as us winning and Jeffers scoring....
-
Two decent goals. The glancing header from Franny was excellent, and Murph did really well to stay on his feet and hold whoever-that-was off to get the finish in. It looks like McCall isn't scared to change the system or use his subs (something you wouldn't see from Brown or McGhee), and it seems that Forbes did well in a 3-man midfield, something a few people on here were calling out for. Hopefully we can use this to go on a wee run.
-
Sweet, very sweet. Look forward to hearing from the folk who made the trip up to shittodrie. Ok Craigie, take a sheep, grease it up, turn it sideways, and stick it straight in yer colostomy bag ya auld c**t. Currently enjoying watching Souness getting tore into Gattuso while I wait on the goals.

Or, instead of the poofy tights, wear your shorts over your trackies.

Official Twitter - "2mins - GOAL for Aberdeen! Aluko! The striker somehow finds space in the box and smashes a fearsome effort in off the far post. Disaster!" Somehow? In order to find space in our box you just need to do the following: 1) Enter our box.
-
Is it possible that Murph could be playing on the right, with Forbes on the left? Hope not, I like the 4-3-3 myself.
-
Seriously doubt that there will be any streams, considering the game isn't being shown on TV anywhere. The team * 01 Randolph * 05 Craigan * 19 Hutchinson * 22 Gunning * 06 Hateley * 08 Jennings * 14 Lasley * 09 Murphy * 11 Sutton * 18 Forbes * 24 Jeffers Substitutes * 12 Hollis, * 03 Hammell, * 20 Page, * 07 Humphrey, * 32 Pollock, * 23 Casagolda, * 33 Smith

Translate that to latin, and make it our club motto!!
-
I think it has been a while since we've shown this. We get pushed around too easily, our team seriously lacks character, and we have too many players who hide when the going gets tough. As much as I don't want us to turn into Bert Paton's Dunfermline I wish we could show a bit more of a physical presence, or some guts at least.
-
Should I expect my personal e-mail from the manager any time soon, or is he still having a wee glass of wine at Ibrox
-
...the internet. As someone mentioned in another thread, I remember the days when you first found out about a new signing when he was warming up before the game. You could also sign a no-name and he wouldn't be written off from the start because of some wikipedia stats or how shite he is in FM. Also this whole sitting down pish. It's not natural, the seats are uncomfortable, kills the atmosphere, and is no less dangerous than standing. Letting far too many people in and having fucking fences at the front is dangerous, standing up is not. Just look at all the music festivals and gigs. Or, look at all the other leagues who allow standing. They're hardly scraping up dead folk every week along with the pepsi cups. Assign a standing capacity and stick to it. That will be safe enough.
-
1-0 to us. Murph with the goal.
-
Aye, half of our first choice back four, and our captain playing a few days removed from walking off injured for Northern Ireland. So I reckon that had an influence on the result. As far as rational thinking goes, today we got humped at Ibrox against Rangers, this happens a lot and we haven't found an antidote to this in my time supporting Motherwell, so I'm not going to use today as an indication of how our season is going to go or how good our manager/players are.
-
How about the 6-1 loss at Tannadice back in 95ish? Or the 7-1 against smellic at FP? Those were embarrasing as Fuck. In fact the most humiliating for me was up at McDairmid Park, when St J beat us by 4 or 5, think O'Boyle scored from a ridiculous distance to finish us off. Think it was Davies' first game in charge. There will be more I'm afraid.
-
I'd like to see the manager acknowledge this. I know we're not going down, but I don't want to hear a hard luck story about today. He needs to let us know that there's no complacency there and that we'll be fighting for these points in the next few weeks.
