wellup83 Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 So many excellent performances all over the park. The match itself wasn't a classic but the character and workrate from our team was fantastic. Ox with a match winning save, Casey won virtually everything that was thrown into our box, a real captain's performance from P McG and as others have said young Lennon just a class above again. Really pleased for Robinson to get off the mark with a great finish from a position I thought was impossible at the time. Fingers crossed that's him on his way on the goalscoring front. Compliments also to the fans who created a real cauldron all night. The atmosphere was the best there's been in a while, orchestrated by Block E in the corner. Brilliant. Can we acknowledge that this is now a good run in the cup? COYW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxteth O'Grady Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 For the semi finals, do they still combine the gate receipts for the two ties and split them equally among the 4 teams? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Bezzer! Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 I don't normally pay any attention to newspapers, and haven't for a long time, but I saw a Daily Record this morning and our win last night wasn't even mentioned until 8 pages in from the back page.

The Daily Record represents everything that is horrible about football in the West of Scotland. I cannot remember the last time that I looked at a story in that rag. It will be at least 20+ years ago. No interest in promoting Scottish football in general and every interest in the promotion of one particular club at the expense of all else. Out of sight , out of mind is the best policy with that type of journalism. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellfan Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Fantastic night to be a Well fan. They don’t come around often, but nights like that are what keep many of us chasing a dream. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
star sail Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Some thoughts on last night. First of all, that playing surface seems to look better every time we see it. It is now a thing of real beauty and really adds to the sense of occasion on a night like last night. I was reminded of how Firpark can be one of the best grounds for atmosphere in the whole of Scotland. It brought back a sense of nostalgia for big nights in the past at Firpark. I think what is particularly noteworthy is the amount of late goals we are scoring. Successful teams do this and it is a habit that is very nice to see. Congratulations to everybody involved at the club. You can see what it meant to the players and the coaching staff in the video posted above. I think the momentum has been building to a night like last night for some time. Happy days. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole experience took me right back to matches at FP with my own dad. He's now 13 and he'll have seen Motherwell at Hampden at least 5 times in that time. Not bad going.

He has looked very assured since he's come in. Certainly grabbed his opportunity with both hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mio Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Still can’t quite believe we filled fir park with the game on tv and we didn’t let ourselves down? It’s been a long long time since we’ve celebrated a win at home with such a good crowd. Brilliant night, bring on rangers cos sure as sh1t they’ll be drawn apart from the other uglies in the semis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewelllfan Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Oxborough has been a real breath of fresh air mental we've had him sitting on the bench for 2 seasons just him coming for crosses releives so much pressure on the defence. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As well as being a better goalkeeper he's a calm presence compared to Kelly. Every time Kelly had the ball he'd start shouting, pointing, bouncing it like a maniac and carrying it up to and often over the 18 yard line. It definitely didn't help the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welly Machine Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Ox definitely seems to inspire a bit of confidence at the back and incredible save with his leg a 1-0. Chuffed for Robinson to finally get a goal the shift he puts in deserves. Didn't appreciate from the Cooper what a tight angle it was until watching the highlights back this morning. Thought Kaleta done pretty well when he came on, comforting if it turns out SOD will be missing for a spell. Best atmosphere for a long time, hope it encourages a bit more in going forward.

Too often over the years when we have managed to get bigger crowd in we fail to deliver and the occasional supporters are lost again because their night was a depressing failure. Last year at Morton 3 guys beside us - in a big away support - hadnt been to see Motherwell in 5 years and at the end they said they wouldnt be back soon but that kinda game last night changes that mindset. If we have any hope of increasing the support by modest numbers we need that kind of result more often. Not an easy ask. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
