As much as I'll be gutted to see him go you an understand his ambitions and a decent European side fits that ambition however if he ended up with those East End tramps I'd wish him nothing but bad luck.

bit harsh!

If one was to read twitter comments, with no prior knowledge of the subject, you may actually think that Jens was potentially leaving Celtic to go to Toulouse.

Just googled Toulouse there and their captain is a Dane. There’s also a few Norwegian players there too. this has added to my disappointment

Arse!

In talks with Zander McAllister, hopefully he’ll sign as I think there’s a player there, didn’t look out of place in his appearances this season.

Looks like a wee but of weight to the Toulouse thing. If he does go…. And according to Halliday, he’s off. I’d 100% prefer he went to France than attach himself to either set if the Glasgow poison. you’d think the attraction of living and working in a stunning city in southern France would be a no brainer rather than stuck in a mauket, run down, every road dug up cesspit of a city like Glasgow. i don’t know his circumstances but id guess he speaks French as well…. He can do every fkn thing else.

Other than billing them for the empty seats, Motherwell could restrict their numbers without reference to anyone. I would say raise the cost of away tickets to compensate but that would need a similar increase for home fans, per current rules. S is not a consideration What could Celtic do? Reduce our tickets for Celtic Park? But it is not like for like anyway. And if they boycott Fir Park, Happy Days! Issue a statement stating that numbers have been reduced because of the actions of Celtic fans over a series of visits. Qualify it by saying MFC retain the right to restrict fans of any Club if similar incidents occur. Sends a message to all, although Hearts. Hibs, Aberdeen, Falkirk and even Rangers of late have not been an issue despite bringing thousands. Need to keep our own house in order re away games though or we end up looking like hypocrites..

I feel dirty typing this, but seems that Rangers fans have actually been fairly well-behaved at Fir Park. The stairways mostly clear, no reported damage, no pitch invasions (since the play-off). I'd be in favour of giving Celtic the upper tier only and bill them for loss of revenue from the empty seats. We'll stop billing them and open the lower tier when their fans learn how to behave themselves.

Good news about Wells.

Money talks and they can offer way beyond what we can financially and facilities

I'm hoping that he realises that he's onto a good thing here and could build something really special in 2-3 years. He's got a lot Toulouse if he gambles on moving to France.

Given the trouble this season and last I would hope the Club Board are already considering this. No doubt the loss of income upwards of £65k per game is a factor. Hard to gauge how many of those home fans that avoid Old Firm games would be encouraged to turn up if away numbers were greatly reduced. Wouldn't be enough to offset the loss but then again money should not be the driver here. I wonder if anyone from the Society has expressed health and safety concerns re Celtic games to our Chief Executive? I don't think there is any rule dictating that a Club cannot pick and choose which visiting fans should be limited in number. Hearts and Hibs have limited away tickets for most teams in recent seasons but increased the allocation for matches between the two. So no reason why we could not restrict OF, or even just Celtic, but give others the full stand.

I'd forgotten about Dylan Wells.

Nothing unexpected so far, other than Liam Gordon in discussions, possibly. Happy to see Olly Whyte has agreed an extension.

The GTF list is here: https://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/2026/05/20/2025-26-end-of-season-squad-update-2/

Can we not write the club or start a petition to only allocate them the top tier due to safety concerns you know we are a family club after all. Or so they like to say.

No reason why not. Would be a start. But there has to be a willing. When the top team in the Country, their Manager and their media have spent days trying to play down and justify the actions of their fans at the weekend and earlier I wouldn't hold your breath." All just good natured fun don't you know." "It's all the Police's fault" "No evidence to support the claims" "Never happened" As a first step we should reduce the away allocation in some cases to a minimum...if any....and place them as far away from the pitch as possible. Does someone really need to be badly hurt before that happens? But as long as money talks I can't see that happening unlike at Hearts, Hibs, Aberdeen and even Falkirk that can fill the ground with their own fans. A further 3000 uplift in our home support and we might just about be at that stage. A tough ask. Was reading yesterday that Celtic are refusing to fully stump up for the damage their fans caused to the stand, plumbing and electronics at Ibrox. Running into hundreds of thousands of pounds by all accounts. Hiding behind some agreement that a Club only needs to pay a maximum of £50k for any damage do away grounds. SFA approached but stalling and asking the Clubs to sort it out themselves. Court action incoming. Reminds me of the time they held us to ransom when Burrows was in place.

Does giving Derek McInnes the fingers up close and personal not qualify for that then.

Its a condition of entry not to enter the field of play etc There's presumably relatively little the club can do though other than not allowing them tickets. Little to stop others buying them though and there would be no recourse (unlike a court-imposed banning order) *InterestingIy football banning orders can cover watching games in the pub etc as welll

In principle, it's probably not that unreasonable. You're not going to get arrested for running onto the stage at a gig or a play, just chucked out by security and banned from the venue. But if you lamp somebody in the process, you're going to get arrested. That said, although it's not specifically an offence in Scotland, I'm surprised a pitch incursion can't just be considered a breach of the peace, or some other nebulous public order charge.

"I'd like to make an appointment for an eye test." "Good idea - I'm the butcher"

I get the legal position, but can't clubs or the SFA just ban the culprits? Name and shame. Businesses like shops and pubs can ban customers for whatever reasons they like.

You'll never guess who I bumped into on my way to the opticians last week... Everybody! 😬🤪
