Loved the Spanish Archer! 🧡❤️🧡

Thats a shame. He looked good!

Came from a fake account looking for clicks. But he is the kind of player we would like to sign and he is a Copenhagen player.....

Hopefully the big boy fae Copenhagens reserves isnt just a rumour. He looks pretty tasty for our level.....

I foresee a tentative sluggish start as the players get used to the new system. But I still expect us to enjoy majority support within the stadium and for us to grind out a 2-0 win.

I really like the kit. Love the sentiment behind it with the 30th anniversary coming up. I do prefer the petrol blue we have used before, but this also works well with the claret & amber trim. Quite plain and simple with some more subtle detail. Kind of torn on the British Steel logo, as Steelman 1991 says, the organisation weren't blameless during the closure, but it does link into the community sentiment and the workers were a bigger a part of the place than the management ever were. Would buy one in a second without the G4 Claims sponsor. Will wait to see it in the flesh before I decide to part with my cash. 8/10.

I just dont see Miller wanting to go to Celtic. Lee Miller is on record saying Lennon is a first team player now and needs first team football at a higher level to develop. Firstly, not sure he gets that staying in the SPL. Obviously he would be playing with better players but its still the same league. He could have a chance of Champions League football, but he would be competing with McGregor, Hatate, Engels and McGowan for a midfield spot. Not sure Rodgers drops any of the first 3 in a big game. Hopefully the David Turnbull experience will have sounded loud enough alarm bells for him and he will take his talents elsewhere. Preferably Europe.....

Ive never bought into the feeling that Motherwell fans are any more indifferent or indeed harder to please than any other fans. We just notice it more because we are them and they are us. Most supports with a broad demographic will produce similar percentages when asked to make decisions on various subjects. Its like politics. Nobody really gives a f#ck about local elections cause its roads, bins etc. When it comes to the big decisions more people tend to sit up and take notice. Still a piss poor return though.......

Have we just exchanged our new manager angst with Lennon Miller angst? I get its the close season and there isnt much to talk about, but no need to be getting worried The boy has an agent who will be making sure everyone in Europe is aware of his availability, over and above the clubs communications. The kinda clubs with the money to buy him dont have League Cup games to prepare for in 2 weeks. They will be in no rush.

Agree turnout is very disappointing. Reasons need investigated so we can at least try to drive up engagemement. Unfortunately rules and regulations are not very "sexy" to your average punter, but I would have hoped for higher numbers than that.

Im all for football being played on grass. We used to have one of the worst grass pitches in the league and now its one of the best. So it can be done on a small budget. Like others have said, you have to prioritise. If standards are set it forces that decision on clubs, which is fine. But imho, there should also be standards for grass pitches. Ours used to be horrible during the winter months. St Johnstones was poor last year and other clubs have had dodgy grass pitches. The rules shouldnt just be applied to plastic if we are serious about improving standands......

I would imagine both they and Falkirk will look to challenge it. To be fair, I will wait until I see how the new pitches play this season before passing judgement. I agree that some of the grass pitches we played on over the last couple of seasons werent always the best. St Johnstone being the most obvious in the cup game and the following week.

On Robinson, I agree I saw precious little under Kettlewell to suggest he has much to offer. But we were absolutely howling at that point and he was being asked to do a job he wasnt suited to. Id like to see if JBA can get a tune out of him in a different formation. Strikes me as if he could be quite useful playing a pressing game. If he can return to full fitness that is. Tough injury to recover from. Although I did see he was on the plane to Holland, so......

How do you know he has zero knowledge of the Scottish game? Im sure they have tv and computers in Denmark. Also, Scottish football is littered with managers who had plenty knowledge of the Scottish game and still did shite, so its hardly a benchmark. Clearly the McGhee signing was Kettlewells and Fadinger looks like Wimmers, but I would be shocked if the club signed off on Watt without at least discussing it with the manager. Given we need another 3 or 4 players for cover until xmas, Im sure he can do plenty with that. I get that you are naturally pessimistic and thats fine. Some ying to my yang brings balance to the forum, but negative vibes without a reason is just vibes.....
