  1. Why take the italian name? What has that got to do with Motherwell?
  2. You mean to say Cirque du Soleil aren't performing at the Electric Bar? Or are you embarrassed at your attempts to avoid using the term 'walk'?
  3. Teams like Wolves, Sheffield United and Bristol City would most certainly compete on the park with St. Mirren, Partick Thistle and Kilmarnock. I can do selective examples aswell.
  4. With the previous argument, the next post summed it up. Higdon to recently promoted Chesterfield. We can't stretch to a salary that they can offer. And it really depends on which Swindon team you're talking about. Danny Wilson took them close to promotion, PdC's team in L2 were outstanding, as they were the first year back in L1. The only team I'd see doing better in L1 would be Mark McGhee's team. "es they have bigger crowds and budgets but I wouldn't say any of those teams are bigger than Dundee Utd, the OF or Aberdeen and the top 5/6 in Scotland would all get promoted or at least be around the playoffs in that division." This is just a bit stupid, isn't it. The OF skews it a bit, but take the top two of L1 out and you have much bigger teams, bigger stadiums, infrastructure, attendances and money than those left in the SPL.
  5. OK. Now, since his reputation has been described (in here) as very good, he's surely had offers in those 23 years, ones above his budget. He decides to leave during a transition in general management of the club. There are many possibilities surrounding this, but there are one or two obvious ones.
  6. He didn't 'force' the players to sign this summer either. It's his job to run the club and keep these people at Fir Park, and while he (rightly) gets praised for doing that, you can't help but draw conclusions when someone follows their old boss after 23 years at the club.
  7. Absolutely not. Saw a lot of praise for him after the signings/contract renewals this summer. Two way street isn't it?
  8. Flow managing to steady the ship then...
  9. In terms of quality, attendance, budgets and the general size of clubs (Sheff Utd, Cov, Wolves, Bradford etc), yes it is.
  10. Josh (I think - Jacob actually - obviously) was loaned out to Swindon last season, so they're already playing at a higher level than they would here. But that's not the point. What's the point of suggesting it? Do you think someone is going to come on here and think "cunt, I never even thought about those two" and go sign them? They're not even based on rumour.
  11. Still 16 years old. Worth a punt.
  12. Are we just throwing about some names from folk we like in Champy? If so, I'd love to see us sign Tonton Zola. And Freddy Adu while we're at it.
  13. I really think that thing ruins this place. It's so fuckin' slow on here now (in terms of volume of posts...).
  14. I take it you're not fans of Gilks, G Boyd, Maloney, Morrison, C Martin, R Martin, Phillips, Bridcutt, Steven Fletcher, Mackie, Rhodes and of course, Stuart McCall then?
