has he done his national service?

good post.... its a tough one, I have always felt we have been too "nice" as a team in recent years. The ninties team would "bully" the 2000 team Porter was as close to a predator as we've had since the Cobra Dolan would do the dirty work, leave the boot in etc Softie - the name explains it all Lambert with the gyle, over Hughes anyday who would you want to go in for a 50/50 ball with in the 93/94 team, compared to the 2007 team?? McCormack is still the one that will divide fans, there is no doubt he was the most talented player out them all in a Motherwell top - you could argur Lambert as he went onto Dortmund Altho who would ever forget Brian Martins goal at Ibrox?!? lol as for who was shite.......Shannon and Kirk got the most abuse IIRC

just dont fix the car!!! poor show!!!

i heard that Sutton was tee total...............Lennon on the other hand isny! Maybe John just takes him home in his taxi!!

guy in my work has just asked me if i knew of, or had heard anything about Sutton to Smeltic. He's a tim, so I asked him for links etc as to where this was being discussed. He said its on a few of their forums - namely the green brigade forum. Celtic fans are saying that Lennon is looking for a target man as Daryl Murphy failed to live up to expectations - they have Stokes and Hooper who are similar, so are looking for something different. They were also saying he has limited ability in the sense that he aint going to cut it in Europe, however could certainly do a job domestically. Would be gutted if he left, great player for us and would be a major loss anyone know or heard?!

should we or can we afford to take a chance with Rory McAllister? looked decent when we played against Brechin earlier in the season, and certainly gave Reynolds a run for his money when it came to pace. IIRC, he is a plumber - so we'd need to offer good money for him to consider chucking that and part time football. Do managers ever ask players if they know of anyone that is available? eg - does Jones know of anyone who could do a job that maybe McCall isnt aware of? Or ask Randolph if there were youngsters at Charlton who showed some promise?

quite what?!

21 leagues of 2 is my favourite!!

^^^^^^^^ exactly what I was thinking!! Play him, they win 1 nil - then they have to forfeit the game lol GIRFUY Broon!!!

what one? Adam or Jamie?

http://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/2011/01/10/s...ickets-on-sale/ unless, I'm mistaken - the only £15 tickets are for the family section - therefore any adult who wants to go without a child, will need to pay £20??? am i reading it wrong?

would llove to be there, but theres no way on earth I can afford it have just shelled out £60 for tickets for sunday, so thats my pocekt money all used up!!!

because our family section is "behind the goal" and our non family section is in the main stand celtic fans can buy tickets in the main stand for £20, just like us. Or they can buy £15 for behind the goal. As we do not have many fans, the £15 "section" is not available to us i personally think the club have made a booboo here, but I'm sure they know that more "adults" will buy a £20 ticket, than a family ticket - therefore more cash, although it shouldnt matter as the money is split 4 ways

thought hutch had a great game again...........was worried about what NIsh would do, and is previous seasons, Stokes, Riordan, NIsh and Miller have tore us a new one. He got stuck in, put himself in where it hurts and still looks very composed on the ball. Sunday will test his metal - if he continues to play well, he could be the next one on the way out of FP. When Nish came on, he never game him anything - on the deck on in the air. He certainly let him know he was there. Pass marks for everyone on saturday, altho IMO Hately is still never a central midfielder. With Meechan and Page coming on, and the latter doing a great job of breaking everything up - 1 - does that mean that McCall sees more in them than he does in Forbes? 2 - 451 - possibly play that against Rangers, with Page being asked to do that agianst Naismith or Weiss? 3 - can Page get in the team?? if so, where? any time I have seen him, I have been impressed was surprised at their bench on saturday - wonder if CC decided to drop them all after the Ayr game would have taken nearly every single one of them for our team.....Hogg, Riordan, Nish, De Graf, Wotherspoon

BLAME STEVIE WOODS!!!!!

well my season ticket wont be getting renewed next season anyway - not value for money, and I cant jusitfy the outlay when I'm not enjoying it and when i now have other commitments Stephen Cosgrove - a Man Utd youth player................what happened to him when he came to us? went down and down and down. I wouldnt say there are "plenty" of gems, but there are defo players who can make the step up,they just need to be given the chance. I remember speaking to McFadden at one of the POTY events in Fir Park, although I cant remember the full conversation, it was along the lines of there were other players who he played with that were miles better than him, however he was just lucky that on the day he stood out above others. So luck has alot to do with it, getting a chance to prove yourself is the problem. Teams dont have the spare money to give someone a chance. One of the guys i know used to play for the Well, got released and ended up signing for Stenny after a few weeks of nothing. Two days after he signed for them, he got a call from Celtic saying they had just heard he got released and wanted him. Needless to say, Stenny told him he was under contract and couldnt go

if Motherwell want to pay me to go to Div1,2 or 3 games every week to watch games and try to spot some talented players, then I'd happily do that it would probably be better than going to FP anyway!!! there are defo players out there, i think as someone mentioend earlier - we dont have the money to take a risk on them Frazer Wright from Stranraer to Killie Ryan Stephenson from Ayr to Hearts

if lasley doesnt make it, then Hately will be in midfield and someone will come in at RB as for the 3-5-2 mentioned earlier - no chance it will be 442 or a 451 if we can get an early goal against them, then I think we could see another 4 goals similar to Dundee, but my head says a Hibs win

IIRC correctly, he's a right footed player who likes to cut in albeit, he isnt afraid to have a go with his left peg he's a tall gangly player who can hopefully help us create chances and get the ball in the box for Sutton I'm not overly concerned that he's 34 - we could have brought in younger players who could be just as bad............malcolm, keegan, molloy and numerous other players who we have had on trial I think we need to accept that if a player is great in every sense, then they WONT be signing for Motherwell - he WILL have some shortcomings Jamie Murphy is a talented player - but he wont make the top grade cos he's too slight John Sutton is a great player for us - but he wont make it as he's not as quick as other strikers Mark Reynolds is a another example - great player, but wont make the top grade as he isnt as bulky as other centre halves We are Motherwell - and sometimes I think we forget that. yes, we all want the best we can get, but we have to be realistic. As long as these guys give 100%, then that will do for me

i dont think there is anything wrong with what he has said he knows he's here to get games, and if he plays well, he knows he will have a better chance of getting into the Leeds team fingers crossed he does as well as Lukas and Nick, but as mentioned above - what will McCalls strongest strike force be now? I think its fair to say that Casagolda is bottom of the list.........will it be Grella and Murphy? Grella and Sutton? Maybe see Murphy pushed out wide, and keep Jones and Humprey on their toes??? Surely its not going to be Murphy and Sutton?!?! Not that Im compaining about that patnership, but if it is, then I dont see the point in bringing this guy in

good luck to him I've liked what I have seen of him - he just hasn't had as much game time as he'd have liked fingers crossed he gets some goals and comes back full of confidence anyone know what came of Liam Buchanan? highly thought of a few seasons back

will they talk about finance and gate prices?? or will we just be told "we have to continue charging what we are so that we remain competitive?"

as much as it pains me, i can see Aberdeen winning one of the cups they have already sold their 9000 allocation for the semi, and have requested more tickets

were there alot of folk watching the game??

the way i look at it is this.............Rangers do not have money, they can not go out and spend £12m on Flo, they can not go out and buy Goodwillie(even though he doesnt want to go), they can not buy back Kris Boyd, they can not buy anyone from the Championship so what do they do..........they will look at the SPL and see who is available. They will know his contract is up and they will look to see someone who is proven at this level. If you can score a reasonable amount of goals for a Motherwell, a St Mirren, a Falkirk - you really should be able to score goals for Rangers or Celtic with the amount of chances they make. As soon as John Sutton or anyone else who plays for a smaller team, is aware that one of the big two are interested - they will be keen to go there. Any player can realistically treble/quadruple their money going to the OF and they will still think its a bargain another player, who if he does go (even though I think its highly unlikely and he will probably be laughing about us talking about this) will go with my best wishes as he has continually gave us his all
