Well the crowds have been on the up recently so something must be right but sure we do need to start winning games its as simple as that and i agree cant mind the last time i was counting down the minutes for our next game. I shall take this process everyday of the week compared to the football Kettlewell served up its night and day. Anyway 2-1 to the Well Stam x2(1 pen) and Arfield for Falkirk if playing.

There is definitely a big upturn in overall mood around the team and the club this season. Obviously there has been frustration that we've not managed to win more games but the team is actually playing football and some pretty decent football at that. Compare and contrast that to the disjointed, scrappy dirge we saw under Kettlewell, Hammell and Alexander. We do need more points on the board though.

Still plenty to pleased about , I do believe we haven't lost a game at Fir Park since Stevie Frail was caretaker Looking forward to every game at Fir Park these days , for me it wasn't always the case in the few seasons previous to this

I can see why he’s gone out on loan as he wants regular starts, but choosing Raith was daft. He’s never displacing Lewis Stevenson. What a waste.
-
Noty quite in this category, but Ewan Wilson was an unused sub in Raith Rovers' game with Dunfermline last night.

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! 😍😍😍

I’m not so sure, I think the majority of Well fans I know and meet are all on the same page and are all happy with how things are going. The ones who aren’t are the few who continually post anonymously on social media and fans forums, who most of the time do it for effect. Best to try and scan over their posts, have a giggle at them and move on. personally I’m really looking forward to the games these days and when we are stuck with an international break and watching Steve Clarke’s sides, coming back to fir park is a breath of fresh air Falkirk are a decent side who play quite good stuff but I think we’ll have a narrow win today. 2-1

In those days it was a role reversal . In the mad confused world of the Old Firm bigotry many Celtic fans supported the Republic of Ireland over Scotland and you never saw the hatred some Rangers fans now have for Scotland. -
Ironic, considering most Rangers fans don’t even support Scotland.
-
Aye but the Roar won Scott McDonald part of the commentary team.
-
Fans giving up on us 7 games into the project is why we can't have nice things.

100% correct , Rangers along with the Tories killed a full scale rebuild, remember it like it was yesterday. Rangers lobbied the Tory Govt who just needed and excuse to back out as Rangers wanted Ibrox to be the home of Scotland games. -
Correct , this game is huge for us. We will probably get a decent crowd but I just get the feeling some of our support are just ready to jump and start bitching if we don't get a win and Id hate to see the style we've adopted being undermined by fans turning against it because we don't win tomorrow. For me we probably need 7 points from our next 3 games to keep the all the fans on the same page.

The team spirit is awesome, can't dispute that. Ward's 25 birthday today, don't drop that cake!!!! ( just kidding Callum)
-
One for fans in the 80's but is it worth us starting Crawford Baptie tomorrow and then take him off after 10 mins after he has scored 2 goals! 😁

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..... -
Some merit in what you say Joe, but the SFA received many brickbats, deservedly, for not doing enough and leaving it to others. Many positive suggestions were given to them, but as always they knew best.
-
3-1

Really enjoyed watching that and listening to the players talking.

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!
