Champions Leage is a Mickey Mouse Trophy anyway!! Europa is where it's at

At least the BBC mentioned it, STV didnt utter a word on Wednesday nights program...not 1 word!! I was so disgusted i went on a rant to STV enquiries line, My long winded email was replied to today saying that "The reason we didn't cover it last night was that we didn't have access to any footage for the match and as far as we are aware it wasn't filmed. As such we felt from an editorial point of view that we couldn't cover the story. Ive once again written a pissed off response to this and i think i might have mentioned Rahman's Celtic Bias......ooops i'm getting a bit carried away!!

My apologies, i'll have to get my son to buy me the UEFA Guidlines manual 2011/12 version for my Christmas and brush up on the rules....sounds a crackin read!! Although it may be dangerous as it contains paper.......ooooo paper!!!

I'm an old codger who sits in the Main Stand and i'm usually the first to criticise Motherwell fans for being a pain in the arse but i thought the brigade in the east stand were fantastic last night and added to a great atmosphere, they didnt shut up all game and they are worth their weight in gold for the team!! Now lets get this straight, they threw paper on the park.....Paper?? why is there such a fuss? we were playing Greeks, they get scudded on a weekly basis with lighters, coins, flares and at times bricks..........Surely a few sheets of A4 Fullscrap is not something anyone should be concerned about? The only danger would be if the players lifted it up and got a nasty paper cut!! Hope all this fuss doesn't prevent these fans coming back as the club needs them!!

Delighted to see Law in the middle with Lasley, the talk of Hateley sitting in the midfield scared me!! Good overall performance, Humphrey excellent as was Law and the young boys did ok, Kerr looks a good young player and Hollis is a perfectly good 2nd keeper!! Couldnt really fault anyone today apart from Daley whos contribution is to moan and cry at everyone whilst flattering to decieve at the same time. Everton are a far better team than Panathaniakos so you just never know!!

Think we'll be scrapping it out in the bottom half this year but we're better than at least 4 other sides so we should be safe. A good run in both cups and not to be humiliated in Europe that is all

Results against Ayr are important, to get pumped 4-0 against a lower league team at the same stage of pre-season as us (i'm guessing they didnt go to the Algarve or wherever the f*k we went on on ours) is embarrassing!! i hope McCall goes through them!! Far too much Rangers mourning from our back room staff over the past few weeks...they need to get on with it, biggest game our clubs ever had coming up in a few weeks time, a result like this does not help in any form regardless of a friendly or not!!

We're going to have at least 2 full houses for the European games this season, that'll more than cover the alledged 10,000 honkin h*n tickets sold!! Send them down!! There shouldnt even be a vote, they are a defunct team!! Bye bye!!

Crackin team that was!! Always thought Bobby Russell didnt get the credit he deserved, got it in the neck from the boo boys time and time again!! Him and Cooper were great to watch together!! I still think that team along with the Dortmund Team were the best sides ive watched at 'Well !! Always a buzz going to the games as on our game we could beat anybody!! Happy Days!!

Really sad news!! I used to live next to his Granny up the Clyde Valley and as a kid i spent many a Summers night playing Headers,Flicks and Volleys with him and his brother!! Great Motherwell fan and a top guy!!! Thoughts go to his family!!

I feel very sorry for Forbes, i actually think he's got a lot of ability and is a way better technically than the likes of Lasley and Jennings. I think he's just not had a manager who's believed in him since Gannon left, after he went his performances dipped....not because he was too cocky, i think he just lost confidence!! McCall has never rated him so i think it was inevitable he was going to go but we have an ageing Midfielder in Lasley and Jennings will leave to go back south at some stage and Forbes could still do us a job, I like Carswell but he's not as good as Forbes imo. Good Luck to him anyway, i have a feeling he'll be back to bite us in the arse at some stage!!

Well done to the big fella, he's had to take shit from fans at the start of the season, hopefully he's won most of them over and in my opinion he's the main reason we're sitting ready to qualify for the Champions League!! 16 goals from a Motherwell Striker in his first season......not many have done that.....Legend!!

Once again another spineless pathetic display against the old firm, we definately have a mental issue going on against them by both management and players!! Really poor stuff today!! Hopefully they will all be shamed into putting a huge effort into next weeks match, they have a chance to get to the Champions League, something i doubt as supporters we,ll ever see again and i doubt any of those players are good enough ever to have a chance like this again!! I still feel 2 wins will secure it....Hard week of training in store for them i feel.....time to fight!!

Just had a swaatch at the KillieKickback Forum, Nice thread about Motherwell Fans at the game yesterday!! Loads of appreciation shown!! Maybe wee Hateley could Tweet that!!

I apologies!! Meant to just say F**kwits!!!

It's never good to hear supporters arguing with players family members, thats embarrassing!! However Mr Hateley deserves a bit of stick this season as he does not merit the status of "automatic choice" as he always seems to be!! In my opinion he's actually a very poor defender. Going back to the argument thing, i think its a terrible idea that the Players and Players families have to sit with the away supporters as there's always going to be drunk fu*kwits spouting p*sh!! Surely they can get a few tickets allocated for the Main stand!! I remember Andy Roddie and his burd suffering a 90 min verbal assault at Ibrox when he was sitting amongst us, quite a number of our fans even apologised to him after the game, totally humiliating!!

Took my boy to his first ever away game today!! Wish I hadn't bothered, terrible performance, a real lack of any urgency and non belief. Passmarks only really to Randolph and i felt Humphrey looked ok when he had the ball!! Whats happened to Ojaama?? Stop reading your own press mate and get your game sorted out!! Plus side for our big support down there today, utterly exceptional (apart from the drunk guy who spat when he talked, continually shouting "c*nt" and "f**kin Scum" in the ear of my 6yr old all game....FUD) Minutes silence impecable and great respect shown......well done!!

Thought the 3 young lads were exceptional today after an initial shaky opening 10 mins or so!! Carswell put in so much work in the Midfield and got the better of an experienced player like Rae, in my opinion!! Fantastic performance!! Mention for Humphrey as well, roasted that left back all day, was a brilliant outlet!! i'll not mention his final ball at times tho!!

Phenominal result to be £500k up!! Congratulations to the financial people involved at Fir Park and a huge amount of credit goes to McCall and the players!! Amazing job!! Great to see the club being run properly from the bottom to top!! We never want to be in the position of 10yrs ago again!!

This guy has got some excellent stuff on You Tube, well worth a look!! He's got the Dortmund highlights and also a crackin video of the day before the cup final in 91!! Dont know who he is but well done mate if you're on this!!

Just spoke to my father who was at the game yesterday, he's 76 yrs old and he's the first to complain about idiot supporters, but yesterday he said he couldn't believe the police and stewards attitude!! He said it was just a bunch of wee guys being a bit of a pain in the arse but not causing any harm!! some of the older supporters moved out their road and sat and watched the game along from them. He said there was no harm being done and actually said the wee guys were adding a bit of atmosphere to the place until the police got heavy handed and grabbed a few and chucked them out. As i say this is from an old man who would be the first to say if our fans were being offensive and aggrivating people, and he said they weren't....good enough for me!!

I have to say after the last Rangers game i stated i'd refuse to go back to another old firm game with McCall in charge!! His demeanour and attitude against this pair is always a Defeated man. He never seems to be fired up for it and this vibe rubs off on the players, who are always second to everything against them!! In saying that i rarely stick to my guns and i'm pretty much weak!! therefore...........I'm Going!!!!! yeah, canny wait!!

Its at times like this i miss Jim Gannon....."Right, Get Aff, yir pish.....the young boys are going on" Thats what we needed today. Our Defence without Hutch is appalling, Craigan...FFS!! Hateley will make a defender the day i become President of Azbekerstan......and Clancy, i think we viewed today why Kilmarnock were not willing to put him in their first team!! I dont want to even start on the midfield or our Lone Forward....sky sports stats were on him today and in the 90 minutes of Messi like movement from Higdon, he ran 37.5 yards.....quite the shift he put in!! I'm angry...skint....and the wife is watching All star family fortunes!! Life is Bad!!!

Totally agree about Page, Forbes etc, Completely pathetic performance, I can no longer pay money to watch that, times are tight!!! you wouldn't mind if you seen players bursting a gut but that they aint!! Not one pass mark today.....an embarrassment!!

Why does McCall even bother giving the players shorts to wear against the Old Firm? Just tell them to go out bend over and take what they get!! Negative side packing the midfield and hoping for the best!! Why would you want to go and pay to watch this!! These 2 teams are slightly better than us so go out with an attacking team and show them no respect and tear the fuck into them!!
