  1. Dom Thomas signs for Dunfermline, after mutually agreeing compensation with Killie...... what was the sell on clause?
  2. As announced in this week’s well society email
  3. They all have families that should be considered
  4. Ffs the guy was interviewed on radio and aired a perfectly balanced thought, there’s not much to it , he was happy to stay on the terms offered but by time he accepted, the club’s position had changed , he felt wronged and choose to move on, that’s perfectly ok, the club changing the offer is also fully understandable, imho, as soon as it was known the original offer should have been withdrawn, but I can understand during a pandemic that there were fast moving and changing scenarios that prevented the formal cancellation of the original offer There doesn’t have to be good guy bad guy in every event, if anything the players explained he wanted to stay but felt he couldn’t on his principles and the club have explained why , the emotions should have been left at that
  5. Mark O’Brien retiring from playing (was currently club captain at Newport), and going in to have heart surgery

    Season Tickets

    It is, and I’m glad the club has finally got round to this announcement, I’ll accept the timelines based on reduced staffing etc however I’m surprised at only a one week window of opportunity to request the refund and even more surprised that with such a short period the club hasn’t immediately notified affected ticket holders directly where possible I was really angry at reading the guilting on the club’s official social media accounts, maybe it’s not meant in that way, but it’s horrendously ignorant to imply it’s wrong to claim a refund (on what is effectively a purchase that wasn’t delivered.) if anyone feels they want a refund it should not be knocked, it’s fine to feel that you wouldn’t feel it’s right for yourself but for the sake of a couple of words acknowledge others may need to or that it is simply ok if required
  7. One of the biggest? / greatest? / most memorable? Nights in our clubs history was a little surprised at the general lack of chat around the anniversary date, given , the buzz around some other memorable occasions raised during the lockdown period maybe the restricted crowd means it’s just not as prominent a memory for many , but it was probably they most important Match/result in the last 39years Were you there? Does it rate in your top three games Or were you following on via some sort of media coverage , nervously? Confidently? Bouncing of the ceiling? Or had you lost the faith and sacked the notion of a result at Ibrox whilst distracting yourself elsewhere ( maybe having a wee check in on things) ir just general thoughts back to that game
  8. Bank Holiday monday 40 odd thousand of them properly up for a party Motherwell FC nae underground service was some walk stroll back into the city at full time , in amongst all the disappointed souls , many in fancy dress and face paint

    close to zero risk? I assume based on reckless use of the information, you are implying close to zero risk, of death due to Covid? if so? you are just ignoring the significant impact on the life of the many in that age group that suffer the more serious health implications of the virus sure there is a heavily weighted impact on the elderly, but its foolish to write off any impact the u45's
  10. Not sure if this will work as I’m linking from phone but they’ve used the commentary as the advert for tonight’s screening
  11. Thought this thread could do with a little bump in advance of the full match TV re-run of this classic 6-6 match vs Hibs BBC Scotland are showing it on Sportscene Classics , tomorrow evening, Sunday 3rd May at 19:15 and word is Sky have it scheduled as well for midweek? Quite emotional glancing back at some of the reactions, staggered at realising it was ten years ago , life really comes and goes far too quickly get the carry out organised , arrange a couple of hours clear in the lockdown schedule to settle down and enjoy the epitomy of the Motherwell roller coaster
  12. unlikley to be different at any club within his grasp maybe an opening at Hearts if they are challenging for promotion
  13. is there a former royal burgh of the Punjab with a Kirkcaldy like dialect in the Punjabi language that delivers an equivalant phrase to 'Ya Beezer' ? PS apologies to anyone clicking in hoping for a photo update of the scale models ! blame those 3 above!
  14. It is sad, but almost tragic that I/we know how much pain you are going to have, replicating the Cooper, with all the angles on the footprint and every elevation even the footprint of the Hunter at the northeast corner = pain but looks like you are trying to capture some of the finer details, so it's already looking great - good luck , looks like it could be frustrating as fek!

    Season Tickets

    Partick Thistle offering 19-20 season ticket holders partial refunds, if required, now that their season is finished:
  16. the work to seat the East stand (now John Hunter) began in May 1991 , some photos on Kats? site http://www.motherwellnet.com/fir-park/ theres some surviving photos in an older steelmenonline photo thread also
  17. when the seats first went into the East stand it wasn't there..... was still go for good health , on the press photos http://www.motherwellnet.com/photos/misc/photos-in-and-around-fir-park/
  18. Announcement from the Well Society Board , on the official Club site
  19. sooo.. another change at board level , not seen it mentioned many places, Club Website
  20. is it a different tour to the summer of 1976 ? https://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/club/history/through-the-years/
  21. If only we had maintained that purpose/goal from the orignal plan..... hopefully this situation puts a focus back on the society creating a security fund, instead of solely rasing funds for day to day running of the club , which should be self financing , especially now the debt has been cleared (credit in part to society helping fund day to day) I'm sure the minds could come up with a plan that would allow for both with funds being able to be released proportionally over longer term for significant projects , if we look to the longer term future a growth fund can only be good and provides leverage for so much more. Short term however, we own the club through the society...... so any extra funding is going to be helpful if this shutdown has a real financial impact
  22. I'd guess as employers the clubs still have a responsibility to their staff, the SFA to their staff, the SPFL/SFA as governing bodies to all its not just about the virus a potential spread in the workplace or at events , its also about ensuring emergency services are being freed up to be able to manage what is 'expected' to be a very tough time.
  23. St Johnstone 1 up vs livvi aberdeen now 3-1
