Beat me to it!

Not sure the support are that twitchy just yet. Home form tends to dictate the mood of the support and we haven't lost a game at Fir Park this season. Of course that can change quickly if you lose a couple of, what are considered, more winnable games. But you definitely get more time losing, or not winning attractively than the murderball stuff. Anyway, less of the negative chat. Lets just win this playing sexy Jensball and build towards a historic Cup Win! 😍😍😍

Id bite yer hand off for that right now! Mon the unecessary passes! 🧡❤️🧡

They absolutely aren't faultless. Particularly when some former office holders may have had a vested interest in the Ibrox plan. As usual, the murky world of politics never favours Scotland kindly.....

There WAS supposedly a deal in place to properly upgrade Hampden years ago, but the bulldozers were pulled away from the door by Thatcher in 1979 after an underhand deal was allegedly done to try and promote Ibrox as the new venue for internationals and Cup Finals. Just one of the many reasons she was booed roundly when she presented that years Scottish Cup. The SFA get a hard time over this but they have done what was possible with the money that they had. The FA didnt rebuild Wembley with their own money. Private enterprise did most of the work with significant input from the government and National Lottery. Same deal with the Millenium. If there is any blame to be apportioned at the SFA it would be in not being politically astute enough to play the game.

The defence have had another 2 weeks training with Ward to repair any confidence issues. I expect they will have his back. Its what good team mates do! 🧡❤️🧡

There are very few teams in Scotland that will be able to press us as high as Celtic did and get away with it. Thats pretty much why teams like Aberdeen, St Mirren and Hearts (second half) have backed off a bit. I hope Falkirk do go high. We have the better players, so we will play around them. If they sit off us, it could be a longer afternoon. Fingers crossed we can remain error free this week as we really need to start putting some points on the board! Has all the makings of an entertaining game!

I understand why there is a push for it commercially. But there should always be an option to to pay cash and get a physical ticket. Not just at the fitba either.

Oh I definitely agree with that. There is undoubtedly "social engineering" ongoing to get every facet of our life online and electronically controlled. Some of it is good and can make a lot of things easier. Others, it could be suggested, could be used for more nefarious purposes. Regardless, the way the older generation are being left to "like it or lump it" doesnt sit well.......

Hopefully a few players back after the international break. Even if they dont feature from the start it will be nice to have more cover from the bench. Having Slattery, Just, Sparrow and Hendry able to come on to freshen things up would be a huge boost. With Welsh available again and surely straight back into the side, it also gives us McGinn, SoD, Priestman, Balmer, Halliday as cover. Thats a really strong bench, and where we probably hoped we would be after the window "slammed shut" 😉 Falkirk are likely to play attacking and open so it should be a really entertaining game and might work to our advantage. A high scoring Motherwell win for me.

Leave him be! Thats as close to MJC tipping a Motherwell win as any of us should be comfortable with! No need to respond MJC! I prefer ifs, buts and maybes!

The system IS pretty straight forward. Albeit the instructions are far from clear. I go to Scotland games, so Im fairly comfortable with the Hampden App, which does actually work quite well. Season ticket holders can buy for themselves and as many others as they like. All they need to do is download the Hampden App and link it to the same email your season ticket is linked to. During the week of the game all the tickets will be sent to your app. You can then scan in all your group before entering yourself. If you want to distribute the tickets, get each member of your group to download the Hampden App and link an email. You can then send them the ticket via the app. If you are buying for other season ticket holders, you get the opportunity to provide their details when buying the tickets. If they also have the Hampden App, I presume the ticket will go straight to their app during the week of the game, although Im not 100% on that as Ive never done it before. If not you can still distribute as above. It is a bit of a faff on first use, but once you understand it, it really is pretty simple. I do get why people are getting annoyed though. It is a lot of change to get used to. Also, never had an issue with the QR code at the gate. Unlike the paper copies which preceded the app, which were a nightmare to scan.

Allocated sections were in a previous communication, but they should have highlighted them again. We are basically in the East Stand starting in Section F1 round to G7. We also have sections in the north stand and south stand. Not sure if you can pick your seat or if they will just be allocated randomly.

Ive not argued that it wasnt a f#ck up. I would have preferred he put his laces through it. My argument (I prefer debate) is that its not solely on Ward. We have a manager instructing him to play that way. No surprise that he did as instructed. I also have sympathy with those saying we should give Ox a chance. Perfectly reasonable stance to take. My question is, why hasnt the manager done so? He see's the same things as us. But he also see's Ox in training every day and has decided to stick with Ward. Why?

Im not sure I agree with that. If you look at the still, there is a clear pass to Watt, that if it comes off allows him to turn taking 5 Celtic players out the game and giving us a great opportunity to attack. Ward makes a rickets of it, and you could argue the pass is too risky. But the manager has stated clearly numerous times that he wants us to take risks and thats what he likes. I was happy to criticise Ward over the handling errors, as these are basic goalkeeping skills, but this isnt the same, and totally ignores the lack of options the manager has to deal with this without ripping up what we do. If fhe thought Ox was the answer he would have been in after the Killie game.
