They could have had him for free if they truly rated him. As usual, they wanted other teams to take the punt, while they were spewing money on overseas "talent"

I still don't really listen to his interviews, but I always enjoyed him as a pundit. Was never shy about shutting down any of the banal opinions from "experts" being presented as insightful.

Indeed. Almost like they had a plan...

It's almost like his new club has let him settle in to his new surroundings and given him time to get up to speed with the new league and new system.

Played 80 minutes in an away win at Torino. Did Lewis Ferguson not spend a lot of time on the bench in his first six months at Bologna? Perhaps Miller won't have to go on loan to Rangers to make the World Cup..🙄

Mmm its a bit close to Killies "Theatre of Pies" dont you think? 😆😆😆

Just heard one of Martin O'Neil's press conference's when he described Motherwell as being one of the best teams in our league Do not deny in the past I could not be bothered listening to his interviews back in the day lol, he sounds like he knows it definetly will not be easy

Sound suspiciously like the type of rumour you would start to offset the painful truth that your team cannot match the asking price for a player from a diddy club.

Won 2-1 and Miller got 80 mins

I'm all for it Joe. What about the Upper Crust Stadium? Easy income.

Anyone know of a stream for the game?

What I have really enjoyed is that before we kicked a competitive ball, JBA stated his intention was for us to play the same way against every team, home or away. There were a number of doubters, but we laid down a marker in the opening league match against Rangers, and have not deviated from that philosophy since. Gone are the days (for now) when we park the bus at Ibrox for 20% possession and hope we get one decent chance on a breakaway.

It really is. As a Motherwell fan, you never go into a game thinking we will definitely win. Years of condition will make that hard to shift. But I have gone into every game this season thinking we had a good chance to win it. We have held our own against Rangers, Hearts and Celtic. And even been the better team fir large chunks of every game.

Campbells game is all about energy and fitness,neither of which he had when he struggled at utd and giving he hasn't played for months,it will most likely be the same again at st mirren.

Miller in the starting 11 tonight for Udinese.

Brilliant point, I often remember McCall being very negative in his press conferences for big games, more so games against Rangers. Remember a quote from him where he was basically asking the fans would we rather beat Rangers or Celtic if it meant we were 7th or 8th in the league. Terry Butcher and Mark McGhee I remember talking down our chances in some of those games as well, that was despite picking up some wins in big games too. There is a much more positive outlook at the club from those days , the attendances are also proof of this and long may it continue.

Or Fir Pakora, if you're on P&B

St Mirren are probably the only club to make him an offer, seems like Lasley is looking after his old pals.

Stadium naming rights are easy money as the only people who will use the new name are the media, the fans will always refer to it as Fir Park.

In relation to finances, what do we all think about naming rights for the stadium? Personally, Im all in for it, if its a decent offer (not giving it away) and its a name we as a community club can be proud to be associated with (shirt sponsors is a bug bear if mine). A local partner would be a bonus. Something similar to Dundee United. The Liberty Steel Arena at Fir Park or something along those lines?

The massive shift for me is the belief we can beat anyone we play, if we do what we set out to do. Mccall (i think ot was) reguarly used to come out with the phrase "we need to be at our best and they need to have an off day" with regards to old firm games, and with that attitude we are generally beaten before a ball is kicked. We just don't seem to have any fear nowadays. In addition the bump in attendances is something i would never have expected. 8k vs st mirren on saturday, a year ago that would have been ~5k. JBA's fresh approach, so far, has transformed our club. Massive credit to the decision makers who appointed him, and long may it continue.

Its probably a good match to be honest, their play style is somewhat similar to when he was with us and was arguably his longest form period.

Campbell signs with St Mirren now, as noone else wanted him?? Six months out the game and chooses them.

What is it they say? Something like "If you owe the Bank 10 pounds they take you to court. If you owe the Bank 10 million pounds, they make you the CEO"

Aye but its rich people bankrupt, its not the same as what happens to us common folk.
