Surely the whole point of a football forum is to offer different views and to debate them? Given how important the Barmack thing was, and how vociferously it was debated at the time, surely its not beyond the pale to review the situation and ask what folks views on Barmack v Fan ownership is now? I probably shouldnt have used the word "Colins" as it is a bit of a cheap shot, but I genuinely am interested to hear from anyone who thought it was a good thing at the time.....

I generally agree. But the Wild Sheep debacle was one of the most important issues I’ve had as a Motherwell fan, and those backing Barmack’s proposal (and Kettlewell) need called out for what they were: stupid and wrong.
-
I have no problems with "Colins", whatever they might be. I don't agree with their views but, don't agree with calling them out over their views. Apart from calling out the odd roaster, I've never been concerned about the views of other fans. Live and let live. There are more important issues for us to be thinking about. It just divides our fanbase and thats never a good thing.
-
The Venn diagram of the Colins and Kettlewells of Scottish football is just a circle. Backwards-thinking, blinkered, arrogant morons.

All the guys who wanted Barmack in.....

Colins?. Yup great transformation and full credit to board for finding wimmer and then Askou who has been unbelievable. Just loving this season
-
This time last year Kettlewell was still manager and we were about to get pumped out of the Scottish Cup by a poor St Johnstone team. Who would have thought, back then, we would be getting treated to the best football most of us have ever seen at Fir Park and with a squad whose value is currently well in excess of the Miller Millions. Just goes to show you what a twist of fate and some bold decision making can do for a club like ours. Its quite frankly laughable that the old board didnt think that fan ownership was a going concern and we needed the outside investment of someone with absolutely no experience if running a football club. Penny for the thoughts of all the Colins' now?

We were actually talking about this on Saturday. No Motherwell team has ever been as prepared for / suited to European football as this one. I know the chances of Jens still being here next season are slim, and Im not suggesting Europa League, but I think we would make a better fist of the Conference League than Aberdeen made this season. It would be nice if we could just fend of suitors for a little while and let us and the team enjoy the success of their endeavours (should we not fuck it up between now and then). Nice to dream......
-
Hopefully at least another season to lift a euro trophy 😀
-
For the avoidance of doubt, you would then get the tram 🤣
-
Got sent it by a Celtic supporter too......
-
As frank Carson used to say 🤣🤣
-
Thats caracas.
-
Thats some walk from saughton tram stop to Easter Rd, its handy for Tynecastle though.
-
Chuffed for the badge kisser, awww I can't face anyone as sellik lost a game ( try supporting well for 48 years ya tit) Anyway let's all relax now
-
Jealous as feck as that is brilliant 👏
-
Yes, thats correct.
-
Crisis over!!! Luke McCowan has exorcised the demons!!!!
-
Happy days then. Hopefully means Jens stays at Motherwell to the end of the season.
-
That's even less surprising than Kettlewell to Ross County.
-
Martin O’Neill back at Celtic. Confirmed. Dry your knickers out.
-
O'Neil confirmed to end of season at The Tattiedome. If JBA is getting poached in Jan, it won't be by them.
-
The chances of Celtic going for any other SPL manager at any point in time are remote - Tony Mowbray is the only one I can think of and that was after 100+ successful games with Hibs, add to that 4+ years of being a Celtic player. Aberdeen would be the more likely club to want JBA but even at that I think they'll want someone with a more proven record. I do think JBA is likely to leave at the end of the season, there's plenty of English clubs who'll take notice and given his professional record of not sticking anywhere too long I do think he'll move on, but for now we get to enjoy what he and the club have created.
-
I hope they give it to O'Neill. If we can keep Jens to the summer we could end up in Europe and potentially win the cup. It's also difficult to recruit a manager mid season even in the position we're in at the moment. My other concern with Celtic needing a new manager is that Welsh could now get recalled.
