  1. Today
  2. Adidas kits generally look class.
  3. Remember East Stand Motherwell are hosting a 7s tournament at Rockburn prior to the game in aid of Men's Mental Health Charities - 'Adored' and 'Chris's House'
  4. Yesterday
  5. Probably look a lot better with Bradford's collar, still feel the sky blue is too light though
  6. I think my dad had a fishing trophy from Clyde Alloy, don't think it was the Hayton one though, my dad knew him, he said he was a typical spark, became socially awkward when being asked to work (this is a taught technique, so I approve of your GF :D) Clyde Alloy Scotland/Motherwell buses were cracking fun
  7. I don't like it the away kit one bit just don't like it at all go as far as one of the poorest choices in many a year. Macron make the Sampdoria kit this would be a total banger in our colours both home and away.
  8. The current Boca Juniors top would be an absolute classic in Motherwell colours.
  9. I think putting the dislike that many of our fans have towards Bob Park down to pyro is a very simplistic way to look at it... I'll leave it at that.
  10. Thank you pal. I appreciate that My grandpa was teetotal. His family were quite religious and he used to have a drink once a year at new year. My gran too. But after he died my mum used to take my gran for lunch and two gins and she was drunk!! And there was the time she came to my house for dinner and she had a few Canadian clubs (steam boats). Sorry gran. Im a terrible influence
  11. Not much a fan of the kit as yet , but sure it will grow on me . And I do like the idea behind it of course
  12. My grandpa was called Colin Hayton. He died in 1978 when he was 61 and he was working pretty much up till he was diagnosed with bowel cancer. He was diagnosed and he died within about six months. He worked there most of his adult life as far as I'm aware. My family lived in Airdrie originally and then lived in Hamilton and latterly in Motherwell - they had a tied house on shields road He was a Motherwell fan but pretty sure he didn't go to games often. I wasn't at his funeral. I was 9 when he died, my family throught it would be best for me not to be there but a lot of people from Colvilles turned out - my mum said it was packed full of people he worked with. He was a fisherman and they named a trophy after him after he died She just said she turned around at Daldowie and there was just so many people there from his work He was a fabulous person. I still miss him terribly.
  13. Watching Ross Tierney playing for Bohs against St Pat's on the telly here. He hasn't changed.... a couple of good tackles, a couple of bad ones, set up a couple of good chances, and failed to get his shot away every time he had one himself.
  14. Are you Gok Wan.....are you Gok Wan... Are you gok wan in disguise......🤪🤪🤪🤪
  15. Don't like the collar ,Don't like the arm trim. They look too tight. How do you get the gig modeling them by the way.
  16. What was his surname? How long did he work there? Is he a well fan? My old man helped run the sports and social in the Clyde Alloy and buses were ran to Hampden regularly, my dad was there from 54'ish until he retired in 91
  17. Think the collar would do with more amber, it looks a bit Hertzish which is no doubt why their biggest fan loves it.
  18. Totally agree. It’s just gash.
  19. For me the kit is a bit bland being pretty much all sky blue with minimal design. Would have been better with a claret band, trim and white shorts.
  20. Thatcher privatised British Steel. While they might not be blameless if you look online there are people who think that was just paving the way for the closure My grandpa worked for Colvilles in Shields Road at the Clyde alloy. He was an electrical engineer and his pay was poor for the job he did and the qualifications he had. They went out on strike for better conditions to no avail.
  21. Think it’s a nice change……..and unlike some recent Macron away kits has C&A in the trim I like the script (our original- first) badge which reminds me of the early 70’s….. think it would also work with the current home claret shorts
  22. Not a bad shout. While British Steel shoulder some of the blame, if they were a bank with those financial problems the government of the day would have been more than happy to throw our tax money at them and keep them afloat.
  23. Thought about getting mine with "Thatcher's Still Dead" on the back
  24. Are you MJC.......are you MJC......are you MJC in disguise?.........arrreeeee you M J C innnnnn disssssss....guissseeeeeee 🤣🤣 Only joking pal
  25. I really like that, I like the ravenscraig link but I agree the British steel discussion from earlier. But it is a nod to the area and our family members, who most of us all have, who have connections to working there. i like sky blue as well (much nicer than “petrol”blue imo) and it sits nicely with claret and amber. I also agree even as an old fella, I’d buy that if it had “we fkn hate thatcher” on it (as the main sponsor)
