  1. The Butler? I found myself screaming that in JD's last night!
  2. I concur, but give Humphrey time - I think he is nervous - he looks it.
  3. He 'looks' quality. He is big, strong and was pretty tidy in possesion against a top quality side. Give him time. As for Humphreys. I think he was just a bag of nerves to be fair. He has a bit of the Jim O'Brien about him, where he has the pace, but no final ball yet. Again give him time and he will come good. Jennings still looked off the pace and needs to also improve his passing, but again you can't really judge these guys against a team far superior to us. I think we are all forgetting how good a team they are. They will get far in the tournament. Its been a great experience for the youngsters and the game at Airdrie will again give them invaluable experience at the top level of football. Who knows a wee early Sutton goal might get them nervous.
  4. Well done JD's for putting on a good night last night. The place was packed!
  5. Aye he played and he looks like he will be quality. Anyone who judges any of our players on tonights performance should be shot. They were far better than us and that no suprise since we were essentially playing the under 21 squad. The Steaua players recognised this and thats why they applauded them off the park. I have a good feeling about this squad. I honestly believe we will do really well in the SPL this season.
  6. Profile on Gary Roberts Bagged a few goals last season, might be the goal scoring midfielder we need.
  7. My Team: GK - Ruddy - Bigger than Fraser so might be able to catch a football = picked! DL - Hammell - Our best left back and has experience DC - Craigan - First name on the team sheet DC - Reynolds - Did well in his new roll, but I think we will need his pace at the back DR - Hutchison - Did well in the centre of defence, but I think he has the ability to be a full back. ML - Slane - Give him the Faddy Role MC - Forbes - Central Midfield slot for the wee man MR - Lasley - Again experience and a bit of dig (If he can be bothered) AMR - Humphrey - Got the pace to cause problems AML - Murphey - Again has the pace to give them problems ST - Sutton - Big Sutton up top with the other two feeding of him With that formation we will get beat 2-1 !!!
  8. So whats the deal with JD's - are they streaming the game from a internet site onto the wee tvs or have they got it on a romanian channel? As Mitch says The Joker is getting it on a satellite. Can JD's do the same?
  9. The boy has done amazing against some pretty questionable opposition. He looks the part, but lets see how he does against Steaua and in the SPL. If is still performing as well then lets worry about contracts. Still way too early for us to be questioning his future at the club!
  10. I am joking my Romanian friend! We can of course be friend but please don't set fire to us. It might be accepted in eastern Europe as rival banter but in deepest darkest lanarkshire it would folly of the highest order! What's Hagi up to? The lovable rouge that he is?
  11. Sounds like a decent keeper. Option to buy is the part of that I like the most!
  12. I'm no into this McGhee bashing shite. the guy did brilliant for us. Finishing third, our euro adventure and also the handling of Phils death. he may have had a anti climax of a final season, but I wish him no ill feelings at all. to be fair though his behavior around the Hearts, Scotland, Aberdeen and Celtic jobs was pretty shite, but that's that nature of the game. If Gannon has an amazing season for us and some EPL teams starts sniffing about then he might do a McGhee. We are very fickle us football fans.
  13. Give the guy a break! There is always one smart arsed prick too...
  14. Is this game on TV and if so are JD's gonna be showing. Even on some Romanian transmission?
  15. They (Unirea) have taken that lad from Morton - McCallister on loan with a view to him being in their first team. As for the game against Steaua, I think we will struggle, but if we play anything like we did against Flamaturi then you never know what might happen.
  16. Special mention must be for Sutton who himself didn't get on the score sheet, but played one of his best games in a Motherwell shirt. Outstanding.
  17. Fucking magic tonight. Very impressed with Forbes and Slane, but also thought Hutchison looks like he could be a real find - very composed at the back. Slane will become a star though. The boy is going to really shock some of the SPL teams this season. Gannon had the right idea tonight. He realised they were pretty poor so just went on the attack. Stick O'Brien at right back for more options going forward and play two at the back = a 8-1 victory. If only it was always this easy!
  18. I would still have Hammell at left back and put Reynolds in midfield, but what the fuck do I know. The manager stumped us all with his formation and ended up winning 8-1. From now on I am just going to accept his word as gospel.
  19. You can fly from Glasgow: Sky Scanner It does make a stop though, but just under £300.
  20. Whats wrong with Craigan? Captain of the club and is the most capped player Motherwell has ever had.
  21. I actually think we under estimate how our league is viewed in other nations. Players in league 1 and 2 see the SPL as a huge step up in terms of profile and quality of football. They will be looking at guys like McCormack, O'Conner, Beattie, McFadden, Easton, Gordon and McCarthy and thinking if I perform well in the SPL I could be playing in the EPL in a few years. When you look at how many players are leaving the SPL and going on to bigger things then we must say we are doing something right up here. All depends on how good the players that Gannon signs really are though.
  22. You wouldny fuck wi that!
  23. He is actually a pretty good footballer! Remember him in one of these shite charity matches and he ran the show for them - even bagged a goal. That was the one where Boris Johnson flying headbutted the German bloke. Best tackle in football history!
