39 minutes and hardly a decent attack from us. Mon the 'Well.....

yep, think we just need to get into a rhythm going forward.

Sounds like a decent 'Well support in good voice early on.

Yes! Getting the commentary here even though it said UK only.

Aye, fantastic pic!

You are right (as always ), that would be a good move, but unfortunately it's likely not going to happen....although......

My sincere condolences to the McGrillen family. X

That was great! We are the best fans in the world....

We were outplayed by a very good team in in the Romanians and most 'Well fans knew we were in tough in this game. Thanks to all the Romanian's who have posted on this website and hopefully some will get to Motherwell to sample Scottish hospitality. Of course there is another leg to this game and we might have more chances, unfortunately we should have scored one goal away which would have made a huge difference.

Those who are there already, have a great time and I know you will all be great ambassadors for MFC. Going to be a tough game for sure, but we fought from behind to get this far and who knows how far we might go, just a game at a time. All the best to the team and the fans who are fortunate enough to have been able to make it to Romania.

Great stuff Special. Don't know how you remember the goalscorers! How do you remember that? I was at the Stoke game, Spurs and didn't we play Hearts in the Texaco as well? If I remember that was a big game and caused a huge rivalry between the two teams. Funny about these pictures because in one way I became a Motherwell fan because in black and white pictures we were distinct from any other team, although the colours were more important. Kind of like Real Madrid in all white, unmistakable. Also I loved night games getting the bus from Newarthill and going down the hill at Clapperhowe and seeing the lights from the stadium in the distance. Those were great days and nights at FP. Thanks for sharing all your memories.

Hope you manage to go. You will meet up with lots of 'Well fans and will have a great time. If I was there I would go by myself because although you might get there by yourself, you are not alone. All the best.

Yes, people just have to be sensible.

Interesting reading peoples memories on that game, which I might have been at but can't really recall it. However, it also reminds me of when we played Rangers at FP and were up 2-0 until the Rangers fans rioted and got onto the field and that game was "simply" delayed. It was the same game that someone threw a golf ball onto the field with Joe Wark's name on it. After the break Rangers won the game. However, the game should have been abandoned by the authorities when we were 2-0 up because the rioters won and the SFA showed their true alegiance and had no regard for us.

That was an unbelievable crowd. I remember there was some great excitement in Lanarkshire leading up to this game. As someone who had seen large crowds at Fir Park, this was exceptional and I reckon there was more than the official attendance.

There is allegedly a huge political outrage about this. There there could be fines and if not bans imposed on Steaua. See this Romanian newspaper article: http://www.adevarul.ro/articole/absolute-w...e-subhuman.html

Hello and welcome. Your English is excellent, I bet there are very few Motherwell fans who can speak your language. Thanks for the information and I am sure we are in tougher against Steaua and it will be a very tough game for us especially if we lose the 1st leg by a number of goals. I'm hoping we can score a couple away from home regardless. Best wishes.

I agree with that. Certain players may have expected to play every game and because of that, they didn't have to give 100%. No one, regardless of who they are, who does not give their all for the shirt can and will sit on the bench or go elsewhere.

I think McGhee is getting a bit of unfair criticism and as someone said above on this thread, fans are fickle. Would love to see a consistent manager here for a number of years but you can guarantee that when things go sour and when Gannon leaves, he'll get the same fickle response from fans. Enjoy the moment because manager's come and go as players do, but so far so good and these are great times for MFC.

Have been checking ESPN website here and can't see anything about the SPL games being shown. Does anyone have a link to the ESPN broadcasts of SPL games? Thanks.

Agree ankles, this will definitely make the players fit for the start of the SPL season rather than the usual pre-season friendlies.

Absolutely magnificent performance tonight, regardless of the calibre of the oppoisition since they really were an unknown entity. To score 8 goals against any team in a European competition is first class. At work I was checking the score on the official site and could not believe the goals that were going in so I am elighted for the manager, players and fans and this pre-season will make the players match fit.

Isn't that right! Love the pics and thanks for posting them people.

We should win the 2nd leg from the reports of the game only. However, in saying that of course we cannot be too complacent. What we also have to remember is that basically we do have to play two "away" games in the sense that Airdrie's ground is an away ground. Does anyone know if we have been training at Airdrie or how familiar the players are with that park? Anyway I think we will win 3-0, maybe 3-1 in the 2nd leg.

Have a great time decorator.
