Steve Diggle Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 I would hope that most Well fans would prefer to watch the Well rather than the OF. If not we really are in trouble. Siebsbarmyarmy Might Just be Correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaag Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 I'm going for a 1-0 win. Penalty or off higdon's arse and in. That'll do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casey Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Apart from that one of course Was going to mention 3-0 win in 1991 but beat me to it. Remember we only got back from Katowice that morning. On the subject of tonights crowd, why are they allowing the OF match to be televised at the same time?

Finlay Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 This wind is due to die down before the game you all say? Hope so or it will be another turgid 0-0 or a 90 yard wind assisted rocket clearance will win it 1-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 I would hope that most Well fans would prefer to watch the Well rather than the OF. If not we really are in trouble. Whilst the battle to see who is the least shite out of those two will surely make for engrossing viewing, our game against Dunfermline is easily more important. It sounds pretty windy out there again today. I was hoping we'd get a continuation of yesterdays weather <_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope so aswell bit unfortunately with the shitey weather, time of year so finances tight, game in Tv etc then a few paying customers might decide to stay in and watch that than go to our game. Hope I'm wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobey_Dosser Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 I have to pick my games so when I opt to spend £90 on tickets for the missus and I to see us at Tynecastle and Ibrox, a midweek game against a dire Dunfermline team has to take a back seat.

AndyRoss Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Weather is awful around Fir Park area at the moment, high winds and swirling rain. Not going tonight but as said by more than one on here, wouldn't be a big shock to see this one fall to the weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONeils40yarder Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Can see it being a shitey crowd myself. I'll be there (if the game goes ahead) but, with finances, the shitey weather and the option to sit in the hoose or boozer to watch the Old Firm 'spectacle', it will most definitely effect the crowd. Fucking disgraceful that they are allowed to screen and SPL game at the same time as all others are kicking off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyRoss Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Thought that myself mate. Especially with yesterday being a holiday. Why not play the other games during the day on the 27th then have the OF game the following night on the TV? Not saying it would drastically improve the crowd but would certainly make a difference.

Totally agree......Neil Doncaster and his cronnies looking to try and get fans back/improve crowds,but put the Mauld Firm on the same time as the 5 other games.....shambolic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 The truth is, anyone who was considering going to our game who then chooses to sit at home or in the pub and watch the Old Firm game probably has no place at Fir Park anyway.

AndyRoss Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Aye if they even consider turning on the tv or raising a pint to their mouth they should be banned for life.

David Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Honestly, if there's anyone out there who was seriously considering going to our game today that decides to change their mind and sit in the pub and watch the Old Firm game because it's a bit wet & windy outside then they really need to sort themselves out.

AndyRoss Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 No they don't! It's very much looking like it'll be rotten conditions for football this evening. Why wouldn't people question the logic behind dragging themselves out of the house on a winters night for what looks set to be a game played in crap conditions - we've already seen how much an effect it can have on the fare on the pitch this season. Then consider other commitments around this time of year and many will consider just giving it a miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav212 Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Well for me the wind and rain usually makes for pretty poor fayre on the park, yet to see a good game in these conditions, so the weather may just tip the balance between me being willing to pay £20 to watch or doing something slightly less miserable.

Most brain dead thing I've read on here for a while. David's entitled to his opinion Andy and you should respect that. It doesn't mean to say that if you disagree with him then his opinion is "brain dead". Yes, some folk will be deterred from going by the weather (fair weather fans??) but if anyone makes their decision on the basis of preferring to watch the OF then he is right.

SteelmaninOZ Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Motherwell’s Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash with Dunfermline has been postponed due to high winds causing damage to Fir Park Stadium. The match will now take place on Tuesday 24th January 2012 – Kick-off 7.45pm. Chief Executive Leeann Dempster said, “We were obviously desperate to get the game on but there has been significant structural damage to the ground. “That could have posed a risk to supporters so with that in mind, we have agreed with Dunfermline to postpone the fixture and replay it at the earliest opportunity.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
