LadywellToi Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Didn't go last year but heard from a few mates who went it was really good. Will there be sandwiches? ... Their appearance or lack of, could be the deal breaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll get those names first by keeping an eye on our website or by following us on twitter. Hoping it is as good a night as last year, the weather certainly can't be any worse.

MST Posted December 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 The panel for next week’s Fans Forum at Fir Park is almost complete. Joining Craig Brown will be Neil Doncaster and Craig Paterson and we hope to announce the final member in the next few days. There is bound to be a heightened interest from Motherwell fans who will be eager to hear the thoughts of our manager after he was linked with the job at Aberdeen. The evening will give fans a chance to thank him for his commitment to the club and at the same time hear his views on matters at Fir Park and beyond. Craig Paterson, now working as a BBC pundit, is best known to Motherwell fans for the huge contribution he made to our successful Scottish Cup run in 1991. After spells at Hibs and Rangers he joined us in 1986 and in his five year stint he played more games for Motherwell than for any other team in his career (158). His thoughtful insights have helped him to become one of the mainstays of BBC Scotland’s football team. Neil Doncaster took over the hot seat at the SPL in July 2009 following eight years as chief executive at Norwich City. He has been polling clubs and other interested bodies with a view to delivering a set of proposals for reforming the top division. Will we get a glimpse of the way ahead. His views of the disciplinary system and on the McLeish proposals are bound to be probed by the audience. We are now accepting questions for the panel. If you are joining us next Thursday night we want to hear from you, email fansforum@mstonline.net. We'll use some of the best during the first half before opening it up to the floor later in the evening. With matches falling foul of the weather, a trip to the Centerary Suite on Thursday 16 December might be the ideal way for fans to keep in tune with the game. Entry is free for Trust members and £3 for others. You've also got the opportunity to sign up and take advantage of the members discount on the night. Trust membership for this year is just a fiver. Doors will be open at 7pm for a 7.30pm kick off. See you there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MST Posted December 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 Unsurprisingly Craig Brown will not be appearing. The panel has now been confirmed as Leanne Dempster, Bill Leckie, Craig Paterson and Neil Doncaster. Plenty to talk about so best get yourself down to the Centenary on Thursday.

Definitely not anywhere near as attractive now, I've got to say. No manager, assistant or even head of youth there to give us the insight. I know LD will be there, but to be fair, she's very good at answering our questions on here anyway, so where's the added bonus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadywellToi Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 With Devlin hosting I'd prefer to have Youngie or Craggs rather than another journo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
