  1. Past hour
  2. 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.
  3. I'm all for it Joe. What about the Upper Crust Stadium? Easy income.
  4. Today
  5. Anyone know of a stream for the game?
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. Miller in the starting 11 tonight for Udinese.
  10. 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.
  11. St Mirren are probably the only club to make him an offer, seems like Lasley is looking after his old pals.
  12. 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.
  13. 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?
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. Campbell signs with St Mirren now, as noone else wanted him?? Six months out the game and chooses them.
  17. 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"
  18. Aye but its rich people bankrupt, its not the same as what happens to us common folk.
  19. Brings a lot of useful relegation battle experience with him. In his most recent interview he said: --- He has had interest in Scotland, England and in Europe. It is now about considering those options and deciding what is right in helping him to achieve his goals. “I think I'm obviously a free agent,” Campbell admitted. “A lot of times I think it opens your eyes up to see what opportunities are out there. “As I said, if something came up overseas and it was best for my career and it was a good opportunity, then I'd definitely consider it. “I’ve had a few options in Scotland, England and in Europe. --- Makes you wonder what those options were if he ended up in Paisley. Good luck to him, though. Like all former players in the same league, I hope they always do well, and hope their team always finishes below us.
  20. Campbell signed with St Mirren until end of season
  21. Aye, far too many ways to avoid it. Was it Hong Kong that used to have a flat rate many years ago? The idea was that there was a relatively low rate of tax, but everyone paid that same rate on everything. No exceptions, no avoidance schemes, big penalties if you tried to dodge it. Helped make sure everyone paid a fair share, and was easy to collect.
  22. Going bankrupt after transferring assets should be outlawed. He will pay a pittance of his future income for a few years and that will be that. Meanwhile taxes increase to pay for basic services as tax revenue has decreased and costs keep going up.
  23. Plus a 1 year option by club. So start the bidding at £5m Good Scottish/British players come at premium price.
  24. Plus a 1 year option on our part.
  25. Watt has 18 months left on contract so if they were interested then give us £2,000,000 and we will think about it
