Basically this. Quite honestly say something or don’t say it at all. Becoming tedious and it is not a good look. We know you have inside knowledge that is clear. Although if I were your source I would be considering what I say and when. CIA it is not. I have read your last 20+ posts and I am no clearer as to what is happening inside Fir Park. Quite sure you will come back and say u don’t give a f*ck. But as you can tell quite a few of us are tired of the I know posts but will share nothing at all unless you are Sherlock Homes

No not new to the game only 50 plus years following motherwell and I know who your source is as well you've harped on about his son often enough on these boards., so either name the names or dont post. riddles and certainly dont demean your fellow well fans with your I know more than you inferences.

I object because of exactly who they are. Our league is a two horse race and all this does is widen the gap even further. So the proposal is a further 40 odd players blood themselves in the lower leagues to hopefully progress to the big team. They already hoover up kids because of who they are and their "popularity", it is common knowledge but unspoken of how they are limited to the number of kids they can have on their books so have shadow squads, parents none the wiser. They agreed on a SPFL 11-1 voting structure, investigate every option that presents itself to cut loose, bemoan wee teams in finals getting a half share of seats, whinge about TV rights and how they're kneecapped financially against other European teams. Scotland is their home but they'd relocate to Spain faster than a Post Office armed robber. If it is deemed that a Hearts, Hibs, Motherwell, Killie, Aberdeen and Dundee Utd colts entering lower leagues would enhance their first teams and therefore make the top league more competitive then I'm all for it at the expense of the OF. I'm sure the 100,000 regular attendee's from the rest of the clubs that make up 45% of the total OF (55k at Ibrox 25% and 65k at Parkhead 30%) are a sizable lobby group and fed up of their crap. Don't let any trickle down wealth bullshit con anyone, it has not worked in society evident by the wealth gap growing and poverty rampant. Fuck them and the bigoted boat they sailed up the Clyde in.

Grizzlyg encapsulating Baraclough’s first season via the medium of jokes. A season full of absolute tripe culminating in an absolute triumph which will be talked about for years

It's taking you a whole season to come away with a half decent joke grizzly,you better get some serious work in over pre season .

We were going to sign Tiffoney on a permanent deal but 'I think it's a loan now' I'm here all week!!

Summer wish list leaked http://bit.ly/LFCPD2021

OK who feels old now, 30 years ago today we were all looking forward to what would be the best day ever as a Motherwell fan, to watch us lift the Scottish cup. What a weekend that turned out to be, although the details got a bit blurred after about 9pm on the Saturday night , then all of a sudden it was Monday and I had to go back to work. Hopefully we can win another trophy soon, 30 years between them is far too long.

Maybe I’m too old to get it

Crap patter , but even worse than that im old enough to get the joke.

This one was decent

You obviously have a higher IQ than the rest of us. Me. I cannae be arsed trying to work out what OTF is saying. It is tiring. If I posted like that I would honestly think I am being an arse. Self awareness and all that....

Ahhhh sorry pal, I blame it on the time difference!! Heh he

The best Well team I've seen was the onev of the mid 70s. Guys like Watson, Millar, McVie, McClaren, Davidson, Marinello Graham and Pettigrew. That team had everything but won nothing.

Are you sure about Boyd, not sure he played for us, he's spent the last 30 years erasing Motherwell from his memory

Most of us are bored with the game if you have info to share on a public forum then share it, if its not for public consumption then don't post anything about it, and we can all get back to making up rumours, it's more fun.

Are you keeping these names to yourself ?

Couldn't agree more , probably thinks hes funny when most Motherwell fans can't see a funny side to it. the word tit came to mind when I read it.

My comment was in reference to your comedic leanings

And, typically, to have a howler or two in their repertoire.

No! He’s taking his time. You’re welcome Grizzly.

Yes, my objection is exactly because of who is involved, as explained by G&F's Post I agree with all he said, they are a cancer on Scottish football with their bigoted we can do what we like attitude and get away with it as the weekend events in Glasgow demonstrated with the blue uglies. So why should leagues be disrupted, just to develop players for Rangers and Celtic, with no benefit to any other club or Scottish football in general.

You must have Yodo muted Dave...

This is my opinion on next seasons team (No youngsters included as all out of contract this month) Carson if fit/New Goalkeeper O’Donnell, New Defender, New Defender, McGinley New Midfielder, Donnelly If fit/New Midfielder , O’Hara New Attacker, Cole if he resigns/New Attacker, Watt Reserves Morrison, Carson/New Goalkeeper Lamie, Mugabie, Carroll, Grimshaw Maguire, Crawford, Lawless New Attacker

Well, as the sun sets on a season to forget for multiple reasons ( actually it's morning here and absolutely p*ss*ng down which also seems somehow apt) where do we find ourselves? The players who are already signed on for next season are an uninspiring bunch who have either underperformed over the last twelve months or are just not good enough. It is the manager's task to get a whole lot more out of them both collectively and as individuals. A fair few question marks over a few - can Carson return from injury and be as good as he was? can Grimshaw return after illness and provide the industry and utility that would enhance the squad? can Stephen Lawless find the form and inclination to remind us that his signing was a cause of some optimism? can Harry Robinson return from Aldi with everything on the list and the correct change? The players we have brought in on loan have been a mixed bag, but I honestly cannot make a case for keeping any of them. Kelly would be a great signing, but we couldn't afford him and the only other one to make an impact , Roberts, is now out with a long term injury. The players whose contracts are coming to an end are another mixed bag. Cole has done enough to warrant a new deal, though whether or not t will be with us is the real question. Long is a frustration in that there is obviously talent there, but it only appears when you have just about given up on him. Probably a luxury that a club at our level cannot really afford. I have some sympathy for the likes of Semele and Cornelius who have lack opportunities to show if they can make a mark, but if they haven't already broken through in our current squad, will they ever? Scott Fox has been unlucky with injury but you would think that Morrison is now ready to be our back up keeper. Charles Dunne has to prove that he has recovered enough to be a viable option in our squad. Foley is decent, but not a long term option. I can se most of them going. My hope is that the manager is able to take what we already have and get the best out of it. A good team is greater than the sum of it's parts, and the one thing that we can probably all agree on is that, this season, this has not been the case at Fir Park. I think we will have to bring in some new blood. As o who and what position, a lot will depend on who remains after the new deals are offered, rejected and so on. The three things I think we need to highlight with regard to strengthening the squad are leadership, quality and character. All three have been sadly lacking this season and, without them, we are in for another year of struggle at the wrong end of the table. Anyway, we made it through this year. Sincere best wishes to all true Motherwell fans. Here's to better times ahead, and not just on the football field. I believe we are lucky to support an amazing football club, forged in the steel of a white hot furnace, and trying to achieve against the odds. When I think about it, I thank my late father for instilling this passion and support in me and realise that, although it may be a struggle on the bad days, it is part of me forever now and I love it. PS A wee cup win next season would be nice.
