This is just textbook Motherwell. Dunno why I bother.

Are reserve games closed door?
Can remember you used to get in with your ST.

Do we have a new GK coach yet? Looked like Neil Alexander doing the warm up with them yesterday?

Rangers ? I doubt that very much.
More likely Cove Rangers

Not my preferred candidate. Smacks a bit of the cheap option but sincerely hope it works out for us and him.

What's the work permit situation for EU nationals these days?
Needs a sponsor (the club if he gets the job) we'd then apply for a certificate of sponsorship, he'd then apply for the Tier 2 sportsperson visa once that has been issued. Whole process usually takes about 3-4 weeks but they can be fast-tracked in two days.
I've heard managers moaning about it being really difficult getting players from the EU in which is a load of shite and just an excuse for them and/or to fill up their interviews. Clubs and the player or his agent just need to do some bog standard paperwork. Gets more complicated the lower the level the player/coach is coming from but unless we're signing some teenager from the Latvian 6th tier it's a piece of piss.

Think Derek Adam’s . He’s under contract and likely we’d get compensation from morcombe
Was scratching my head there. Was sure he had 2 stints at Bradford with Morcambe in between. Seems his contract is up in 8 months so compo would be fairly minimal I would imagine

Not a serious suggestion but wonder if Neil Warnock has got bored of his retirement yet...

That would be my choice. He is a winner having won premier League titles with Rangers. He was also part of the Rangers side which reached the 2008 UEFA Cup Final. Say what you like about Old Firm players but winning is expected and drummed into them. Knows the Scottish scene. Worked as youth coach at Rangers. Took Kelty Hearts job when Barry Ferguson left to join Alloa. Under him Kelty ran away with their league scoring goals for fun and conceded the least goals to. This would be a step up sure but he has proved he can set up a team and win games. Also proved he can step into a club and hit the ground running.
Did he not also have a huge financial advantage at Kelty? Easy way to con yourself into a job at a decent club
-
Was Simo Valakari not interested before GA got the gig? Doubt he would touch us with a bargepole now. His team (KuPS) top of their league, scoring goals for fun and just got through their qualifier. Wonder if he could tempt his son to join us but apparently he was liked with AC Milan last year.
Would suggest Malky McKay but Ross County would probably pay him more and compensation probably an issue. Sure he signed an extention recently?
Ian McCall (as mentioned above) would probably be a really sensible appointment but would go down horrendously with the fans IMO. I seem to recall him having a hatred of us many years back. Neil Lennon would be in this boat too.
An absolute no from me to the following who will no doubt be heavily linked: Faddy, Lasley, Colye, Derek Adams, Billy Davies.

Someone has just pointed out that our colts team beat Sligo Rovers 4 years ago...
-
Can someone provide some stats regarding our form before and after GA signed his contract extention? Am I paranoid or has he been doing his upmost to get the boot and paid off immediately after signing a new deal?
Surely no manager can be this much of a fuck up without effort
-
Not usually one to jump on the sack the manager campaigns but never felt so strongly about this. He absolutely has to go before St Mirren or I'm sitting the season out and requesting a refund on my ticket.

Can you get a refund on a season ticket?
-
Struggling to remember a Motherwell team as poor as this or worse performances than we've had served up since the end part of the season and these two games. Absolutely abysmal and GA needs to go regardless of the cost. He's been working his ticket out of the club ever since his contract extention. Fucking criminal.

If KVV doesnt make it I hope we just stick Mugabe up front for a laugh
-
Experienced out of contract midfielder who's familar with Scottish Football. It's either him or Charlie Adam...
-
What a waste of a season.
Is it just me or did this complete collapse of form coincide with Alexander signing a new deal? Con man.

Normally it would be ridiculous to think game over at 1 nil but just don't see anything happening today.

Is KVV back or still suspended?
Wish I was more optimistic but can see a pumping.

You should go into the Killie and Midden threads in P&B and see how enjoyable the championship was/has been for them.
Doesn't make good reading for anyone who thinks it would be enjoyable.
At least they have a couple of bits of silverware to show off. 25 years following us and only trophy I've seen us lift is masters

Really think our problems run deeper than the manager. We have the same discussions every single year about whoever is in charge that season.
I've no doubt the people who run the club have its best interests at heart but keeping the club running seems to be our only objective. I see zero ambition within the club to win anything meaningful or give the fans something to be proud of.
As someone said earlier we knew what we were getting with Alexander and it just shows the level we are aiming for, mediocrity.
I'm not asking or expecting a cup win every other year but we have to look to put some entertainment on the park at the very least. Countless managers have failed to deliver this. Can probably count on 1 hand the number of entertaining seasons in the past 25 years or so.
I understand lot of the 'reality check' comments. We can't and won't spend millions to chase success but how are we meant to attract and retain fans when we do nothing but plod along in the league year after year. I'm getting sick of it.
Maybe a season or two (or more) in the Championship will bring a level of excitement back for me. Clubs attitute seems to be that Championship is our level and we're punching above our weight and lot of fans are buying into that shite.

We are also starting to lose fans with even some diehards finding it tough to keep going.
Sadly true and you can include me in that.
Combination of moving a good 30 miles away and utter dross being served up most seasons. I feel there is zero ambition within the club as a whole these days and it's just accepted the majority of fans.
