can you do this without a facebook?

do you think they are high diving scrooge mcduck style into pools of cash? VAT got bumped up by 2.5 percent but ticket prices stayed steady, that's a net loss for the club. inflation is at 4% yet the price to pay into the east stand has been the same for years. every penny counts at fir park, we spend £1.8 million a year on player wages directly competing against english teams. does anyone want to see that reduced?
-
you can already pay 15 quid a game by getting a season ticket. anyone who wants a price cut should also identify where the club should reduce their spending by the same amount.

i don't agree with all the posts blaming the weather. i've seen us play well in rain, snow and high winds before. the weather today was relatively mild, we could have done better. hitting high balls for the first 45 minutes was insane.
-
how many years is it expetced to last?
-
we didn't commit enough men forward to score, their keeper made one save. at the other end randy made a few and we were lucky with their poor finishing. the first half tactics were beyond belief but we were much better in the 2nd. mccall needs to think about how to make us more dangerous going forward, we've rode our lucky recently without creating many chances. 3 goals in 6 home games is pathetic.

i heard it cost 12 grand. it looks like something that should be stuck on the side of the mega bar or the palace, not a fitting tribute to a much loved and much missed legend imo.

were you at pittodrie on saturday? standing was not prohibited. certain people, standing at certain times was prohibited. in fact if you go to any game you will always see people standing for the entire duration.
-
i'd play the same team but with murphy playing left mid and law on the right. get right in about their fullbacks.
-
their rules say 'standing in a seated area is strictly prohibited' which is completely untrue.
-
the dortmund fans are bouncing like maniacs at the emirates. some better tell them it's against the law
-
you can't apply a law properly or improperly you can only apply it or not apply it. and that situation may not arise but why pass a law that means it is possible? seems a bit stupid to me.
-
what's the benefit in that for the club?
-
i still think we need some wee tweaks up front. we're winning games by the thinnest margins at the moment and we're not creating many chances other than via tom hateley's crossing. the away games have been great but we have carried a fair bit of luck (long may it continue) and we're not scoring at home. for me mccall has to figure out how to get more out of murphy, he put in a good shift in midfield on saturday but he's wasted playing so deep. i was expecting big things from him linking up with nicky law this season but they haven't really gelled and seem to take up each other's space. i'd play them out wide on either side of higdon with omar playing behind or hughes in centre mid. we need to get jamie firing on all cylinders as we badly need his goals and a good transfer fee in the summer.
-
taken to task for actually applying a law? that's a good one. you are stickin up for the bill while actually saying we don't need it. following your logic why don't we just give the police the right to arrest and imprison anyone at whim then trust their judgement to apply it correctly? do you actually believe it is fair that two people travelling on a bus shout the same 'offensive' sloan and one gets dealt with more harshly than the other because his offence is aggravated by travelling to the football? there is no justice in that.

4th place is guaranteed europe. over the past five seasons the amount of points needed to secure 4th has been 50, 54, 53, 53 and 56. there are only 8 points seperating 4th to 12th now suggesting that between those clubs anyone can beat anyone. there isn't a side like gretna, falkirk or accies that everyone will gub and no one below us looks capable of hitting a great bit of form. dundee united look the most likely to me to go on a good run but i can't see two sides managing it. if we win 3 of the next 6 we will have 38 points making it likely that 15 points in the new year will see us into europe. due to the parity between the bottom 9 i can't see the total number of points needed to get 4th being higher than usual.
-
i said after the celtic game that it would be great to go into the new year with 38 points so i'd be happy with 3 wins. i don't think we'll lose 3 games however. 50 points should be good enough for europe this season as it seems anyone can beat anyone in the bottom 9 so i can't see any side going on a great run. it's incredible to think we could have it wrapped it up before winter is over.
-
i knew he'd score goals, i siad it earlier in the the thread. we're winning now because of the midfield and defence. in our last two away games the opposing keeper hasn't made a save.
-
he played well yesterday and he worked a loty harder. if he showed the same application from yesterdaya and the inverness game from the start of the season this thread wouldn't exist. i still don't rate him though, if we had a clarkson or jutkiewic this season we would be demolishing teams.

are you sending the emails in a daft font with 12 point claret lettering?

40 posts and not one that is positive about motherwell or even interested in the team on the park. the only football related post you've made is to big up james forrest fuck off to the huddleboard you nonce. you should have ended it at the first line. is it against the law to stand in a seated area? any convictions for that? you are talking pish. people were standing in the aberdeen ends for 90 minutes and in our our end for the full second half without any hassle. the police and stewards enflamed a situation that wasn't even remotely dangerous and ruined a lot people's days. they totalluy changed their tactics in the second half because they knew they made an arse of it.

well excited for this cannae beat a train day.

pish. look at the recent examples of manchester police having to pay out hundreds of thousands to stoke fans who they illegally detained and the young guy in london who had half his face taken off by a police dog while heading home from a match with his father and his mother. the bill is wrong on so many levels. anything that the police deem to be offensive behaviour can see you up on an aggravated charge. however you won't know what actually constitutes offensive behaviour until you're found guilty. this nothing to with sectarianism, it's just a witch hunt against football fans. as others say laws to deal with sectarian b.o.p already exist, this law is not required. what it does mean is that any time you leave the house to attend a football match you are subject to different and harsher laws than the rest of society. any one who attends football matches and thinks this is a good idea is either a masochist or an idiot.
