I hope their Director of Football at least borrowed Burrow's phone and made the call. Otherwise he does even less than I thought.

I thought he got the Aberdeen job, not the Motherwell job.

Were Bodo even smaller than us? At least a similar size? So why not us too! Let’s live the dream.

Don't know if it was reported at the time but Sondre Solholm Johansen has now retired due to an ACL injury now has a gig working for Adidas. Liked Sol always thought he was decent for us think he would do well in our current set up. I wish him all the best.

He's going to give Dons an identity ? Aye kick the opposition off the park. They have form for doing this with opposition managers. They must have been getting really scared of possible relegation. Couldn’t care less about Aberdeen and St Midden deserve it.

Pleased for Robbo. He deserves the chance to show what he can do with bigger resources. I wish him well, but not too well!

If the club get things right on and off the pitch and generate enough income to be able to back the manager financially then why not, anything is possible. But there is a lot to sort out outwith improving the team, do we move or improve, new training facilities, etc etc. Standing still and showing no ambition other than avoiding relegation each season is no way to develop the club and get more fans back to Fir park, so the board have a job on their hands, but so far we seem to be moving in ghe right direction.

I'm hoping that this season is the start of a new era for Motherwell. Given the plaudits and relative success this season, and the increased attendance, we may be in a position to attract additional quality to the playing and coaching staff at the club. If so, the model where we develop talent and sell at a profit may work I'm hoping for a period of slow, sustained improvement in the quality of the squad over a number of years such that Motherwell become a regular in Europe with occasional domestic silverware. Pie in the sky pipedream right?

Easy pickings for Burrows. I'll wish Robbo well just the same (except against us) . He's earned an opportunity at a bigger job imo.

Robinson to Aberdeen confirmed. GIRFUY St.Mirren!!

Jens has name checked them at least once in pressers when talking about us and what we want to be. Obviously with the caveat that we are in the very early stages of trying ro build something and ultimately may not get anywhere near where they are. But hope is an intoxicating thing. Its nice to dream.

This thread is getting nauseating, which is what tends to happen once the Rangers/Celtic fans pile in.

I have no interest in you pro rangers agenda, your opinion doesn't matter either tbh, Motherwell are at Celtic on Saturday, stick to predicting defeats.

Make that 3-0 Ps. Watching motd and just realised that arsenal left back Timber first name is Jurrien. I had always just assumed it was Kelvin! 🤪😝

Anyone see a similarity between Bodo/Glimt and the tactics used by JBA? May have had a few beers but the way they pass into midfield and their movement seems familiar.

You seem to be a bit hurt and put out by the suggestion that it was anyone other than the “dirty bad bigoted Rangers” that were to blame. Indeed you are trying to use examples of instances in the past where Rangers fans were at fault to try and deflect from what happened at the end of the game in question on Sunday 8th March 2026 where it was Celtic fans at fault. I don’t know too much about Rangers fans invading the park after they thought they had scored, but obviously if they had then that wouldn’t have been acceptable either. Fans shouldn’t invade the park regardless of what team they support. The stands are for the fans to celebrate, the park are for the players to celebrate. That’s the ways it’s always been. Also, I don’t remember Aberdeen’s fans charging on to the park and aggressively goading the Celtic fans in the stands at Hampden after last seasons Scottish Cup Final. If you or anyone else can point me in the direction of any photos or footage which shows otherwise then I’d be grateful. Had they done so then I think it’s pretty safe to assume that there would have been some kind of reaction. You obviously just want to see everything from a perspective of “Rangers are bad, scum, the worst and whatever they do is premeditated and hostile” whilst at the same time anyone giving them any abuse or whatever is fair game because they’re Rangers and they deserve it. And as I’ve already said that’s absolutely fine if that’s how you see it. I prefer to look as things as I see them and judge it from there. And from what I saw from the game on Sunday, 8th March 2026, the post match bother was caused by Celtic fans. And that, is that, my good man.

Could just be a brilliant piece of chicanery from Aberdeen, to unsettle and disrupt a rival prior to the relegation battle getting serious. Of course, given the way they have recruited in the past, I may be guilty of reading way to much into this. If Stephen Robinson is the best that they can come up with than good luck to them. They are going to need it.

And our wee Club beating Sporting 2-0.

Real Madrid playing almost as good as us tonight

Poor St Mirren might never earn that right to play football now.

You really are trying too hard to ignore the facts to suit your narrative. Firstly you don't comment on the fact that Rangers fans invaded the park when they thought they had scored and indulged in goading of the Celtic fans. Did you forget this? More importantly the Celtic fans didn't react. Furthermore you overlook the fact that once the Rangers fans attempted to attack the Celtic fans after the penalties the latter resisted the goading. Lets be thankful they didn't. As for the Celtic fans having the form you refer to which ofc is not inaccurate, you dont note the facts that Rangers fans have on many more occasions over the years invaded pitches. The list is endless, examples of which include a League Cup final in mid 60's, Scottish Cup final in 1969, Newcastle in 1969/70, Scottish Cup final in 1980 and in more recent times when Rangers fans brought a halt to a game at Fir Park when playing Jock Wallace's Motherwell. In all instances Rangers had either lost or were losing. Spot the pattern? Could of course add Manchester when they caused untold damage to that city but what's the point. Let me repeat the Celtic fans who surged the gates, caused damage and left disgraceful graffiti deserve every condemnation. But when it comes to the aftermath on Saturday it is patently wrong to say the Celtic fans are the main culprits. Finally, you might want to ask yourself why in a much more important game the Celtic fans didn't charge the Aberdeen fans after penalties following last season's Scottish Cup final. In short he contrast with Rangers fans last Sunday is stark. No more comments from me on this subject. Anyway let's get back to this coming Saturday when I'm sure whatever our differences we will be rooting for a Motherwell win.

Agree with most of what you’ve said here including selling players when it benefits us best so I’m hoping that unless a crazy offer comes in for Just I’d like us to keep him for another season. The one point I’d question is that the Well society is pulling the strings here. Yes we have 2 board members on the club board but I think the biggest influence is the chairman although I do acknowledge that the society - and us as members - has set the direction by fighting off that awful attempt to take over the club and was instrumental in getting changes to the club board that has lead us to where we are now. what the society needs to do now is to somehow manage to increase the society’s membership numbers with new members and encourage back those who left after the takeover was rejected - hopefully this can be achieved but sadly so ex members I know are stubbornly refusing to agree even now that the result was the best outcome for the club.

Thats a powerful argument, very powerful. However, a precedent was set when clubs, including ours, were held accountable for their fans use of pyros, albeit at behest of Scottish ministers. Surely that same approach will be used here. Also, in the interests of consistency, Scottish ministers have to apply pressure.

I think we’ll struggle to score. Sinisalo looks to have tightened their defence up since he took over from Schmeichel and their defence look to have more confidence in him, albeit still pretty shaky. A team with a clinical forward line could still punish them but we unfortunately don’t have that. TJM as ever will be our best goal threat but we will concede at least two I reckon.

2-1 to the mighty. Worst case, a draw.
