Move Erwin inside, bin Sutton, will take a point right now -
It's all about choice though, 53-48 against keeping it, and zero feedback about it being closed on macthdays with the twitter updates, if there was a massive vote one way or the other then I'd go with it, but you have a choice of closing the window and ignoring it and the matchday discussion will be on the forum and updates via twitter.

Growing up watching Motherwell the choir at the fence was the place to be, that's where the atmosphere was and it's where you aspired to 'get involved' you stood with your mates, slung insults at opposing fans at the other side of it, slaughtered the away team's wingers and sung all sorts of shite. There was a modicum of tut tutting from some 'well fans but that was our generation and when you went away you knew who to stand around with for the singing and banter, the end section is the spiritual home of the old choir now, the songs have changed but the attitude and participation remain the same, I was 20 when they seated the East stand but I'd still be in or around there is if was terracing. The main stand was for sitting down in a sanitised environment to watch and applaud, maybe it's just me, maybe it's a partisan attitude to all things Motherwell, but the idea that the bois are artificial and there's a singing section rubs me up the wrong way, knowing the history and what that section has become I found his comments a bit glib and prejudiced

What's difficult for me to understand is that he harked back to atmosphere of days past, then suggested that all fans in an all seater should sit down, for halcyon days to return to anything like he suggests (whole grounds buzzing) then there has to be a compromise somewhere, I'd put forward the idea of safe standing at either end of the East stand where folk can congregate like the bois and stand with their mates, but that's the future, at the moment folk standing with the stewards being reasonable about it is what we have and it works. The 'laddies making a din' comment pissed me off, also being searched at Fir Park is no big deal, I've been asked to participate in their searches twice at Fir Park, no big deal compared to the treatment we've had at St.Mirren park. Some things we knew already, the police won't interfere with a Celtic/Rangers crowd misbehaving just because of the volume, and pulling fans out would cause an incident so they're left to get on with it. This isn't a knock at the podcast, more his opinions which certainly differ from mine. I'll need to dig out Twads goals against Rangers at Fir Park

The game changed because Erwin moved, not because of Sutton's presence, we didn't fair well in the 1st half but had more possession, shots at goal and corners than Killie, we lost a dreadful goal but battled back into the game and we looked far sharper from Killie scored until the end of the match, a few poor decisions aside Erwin had a decent game, if he hadn't scored though he'd be getting pelters tonight for not squaring to Skippy on the break.

Wee experiment tomorrow, will be adding MFC's twitter to the shoutbox and making it read only, match discussion in the forum to keep it in one place for the mobile users, will look to add a better shoutbox to mobile skin over the weekend

I think Coyne's circumstances when he joined Motherwell gave him some breathing space with the more vociferous members of the East stand, an outstanding player for us and a joy to watch, the backheel volley against Dunfermline and his goal at Hampden against Celtic are two goals etched into my memory, definitely one of the most intelligent forwards to ever play for us.

The shoutbox is still functioning on the full version, the mobile version I tried wasn't universally compatible, but it looked good on my Archos and Android browsers. I'm trying to design our own version of a mobile shoutbox (if you'd told me this last week I'd have laughed you off the forum) with either a link to open a shoutbox window or stack the text entry and reading pane, the problem with changing the mobile skin is that mobile browsers all have their own quirks and settings in the CSS, no doubt Apple have a dev site for testing mobile stuff, just need to find it and test the mobile version on that.

It's sold out mate, unsure of dosserdom's frequency of updating but definitely not for sale from MJ any more.

Posting this here to get the most traffic, a mate of a mate is looking to get his hands on a copy of Matt Johnstone's book - It's a Motherwell Thing, it's now out of print and some wag on Amazon is looking for £29 for his copy which is just a tad over-priced methinks. If anyone's got a copy they would like to sell for less than £29 get in touch.
