  1. Past hour
  2. As long as he's not a cocaine bear on the day we should be more than a match for him.
  3. I've done a lot of thinking over the past 24 hours and revised my preference a little. I agree with your take Minty. The danger is, if we don't compete financially, then we drop down the leagues and lose fans. Make no mistake, if we couldn't compete financially with the likes of St Mirren and St Johnstone today, then we wouldn't be able to compete financially with the likes of Dunfermline, Partick and Falkirk tomorrow. And so it would go on. Such teams will be looking to new investment opportunities sooner rather than later. Whatever else it does, the Society needs to become more commercially astute and aware. I don't subscribe to the "Bowling Club" mentality that some fans have of the Society, but there's a grain of truth in their concerns.
  4. For me it’s the first time I’m getting to our final league game of the season since 2017 so I’m looking forward to the novelty. I do hope however we get a nice win to send us home happy.
  5. Have some faith Dave, personally I think we will pump them St J are brutal, Levein has made them worse since he took over. They're heading for the playoff, but I would expect them to get past Raith rover ok.
  6. All depends what age you are, what player you pick, absolutely no point in comparing a modern player with someone from say the 50's or 60's as the game they played is vastly different from what we see today on so many levels.
  7. Today
  8. Yes, he's defo off joining a new team in the new Zealand league apparently. Nobody is 100% certain he ever really existed.
  9. Is Callan Elliot definitely away? Don't remember seeing it on the website.
  10. Shouldn’t be too long now to we here what’s happening and get some meat on the bones . Now I’ve had a bit of time to think about it providing we can come to agreements with both parties then a joint venture would my favoured option. The reason I’m saying this is in part due to how other clubs seem to be out manoeuvring us financially by varying degrees . The old adage was that money won’t buy you success but maybe not so true nowadays . As an older supporter of the mighty Well it probably wouldn’t bother me too much if relegated and playing in the championship as I would still enjoy going albeit it I’d prefer to stay in the top league . This brings me to the conclusion that financial clout would perhaps keep us up but without it …… who knows but possibly would put us down the pecking order financially and into lower league . So I’m hoping a mutual partnership would be my favoured option again on the proviso we do due diligence and don’t sell the club down the river . Interesting times ahead
  11. Think you need some older heads and players that have been at a club a while in any squad. Even if he’s not a regular starter he has loads of experience. Have we had any players like that in the last few years, how long has he been here for now . SOD will be a good guy to have around
  12. Probably one from Hughie Ferguson, George Stevenson and Bobby Ferrier.
  13. Also guys like Ian St John are in the mix.
  14. I’ll forever be grateful that ‘91 happened in my lifetime. 👍
  15. Still waiting on a refund from Scotrail.
  16. Impossible to say who the greatest of all time is, for so many reasons, not least the number of guys those of us on here never got to see play. Willie Pettigrew was probably my first favourite, but my memories of guys I've seen since are much more vivid. Tommy Coyne would take some beating for me.
  17. One of my favourites, and a bona fide legend, but probably not the GOAT.
  18. Not much of a crowd today, and hee haw travelling support........aw nawwwwwwwww forgot it was tomorrow!! 🤪🤪🤪
  19. On the topic of Scottish cup wins it was 33 years ago today we were heading into Hampden more in hope than expectation to play Dundee untd. To see us lift the cup that day was right up there as 1 of my proudest moments as a well fan, what a weekend that was.
  20. 📽️ The greatest Motherwell player? 📽️
  21. This is a very good summary of the season. I think there has actually been a consistency to the season that is overshadowed a little by the winless run in the winter. Without dazzling or ever really being comprehensibly thumped it has generally been a mediocre season. This seems strange to say when we have been really competitive against the OF and we got th long awaited league victory against Rangers Looking at Kettlewell's record as a whole over one and a half seasons, I think there is reason to believe we have the makings of a decent manager who will improve with time. He reminds me a little of Derek McInnes, never sensational, never completely at sea just steady making incremental improvements. If that incremental improvement continues Wellfan could get his wish of a top 6 finish and I think it is reasonable for him ( and all of us) to set that as the next target . Overall I think the club has reached an equilibrium just now that will serve as a good basis to push on to greater things. I am excited for next season but then I am a self aware happy clapper. Looking forward to my hands being red raw next season.
  22. Would happily sign up and am thinking about it, but just turned 45 and haven't played 5's/7's since Covid. Would be blowing out of my arse after 10 minutes.
  23. Former Well player Mark O’Hara scoring v Celtic to open the scoring on title day
  24. I’m not sure we need another 32 year old midfielder. He’s also got another year left on his contract at Partick.
  25. A interesting player we could look at signing is Blair Alston scored all 3 Partick goals in there game on aggregate
