  1. I think that is the point of the posts. We would be well within our rights to ask for upwards of £300K if it's an English club coming in for him. If it's Hearts making a bid we should be asking for at least double that because he is only going to end up ruining our chances of getting back to 3rd or 4th again while he is banging them in for Hearts. No doubt he'll score a hat-trick against us everytime we played them and lastly, they are *banned word*.

  2. Dougie Imrie is shite. Anyone who wants to have him signed is wantin' their head checked.

     

    If that were the calibre of player we signed in the summer then we'd be in division 1 the following season.

     

    It seems the only people who mention his name are his 'mates' from the Lanark/Carluke area.

     

    I'd take Cowie though.

  3. The only time I can remember being pished as a fart at the fitba was when the beer festival was on in the civic...a few of us went there for it opening at 12 and then trotted over the road at ten to three to watch the game against Falkirk...I'm sure it finished 5 -3 to us...I think Mo Johnstone was playing for them at the time...

     

    ...probably missed most the action diving in for a pish every two minutes...!

     

     

    I mind that. What a game that was. Think the lead changed about 3 times. Did Tommy Coyne not score an overhead kick and was denied a hat trick afterhaving a goal disallowed.

  4. Hmmm, never been comfortable keeping folk who have signed pre-contracts elsewhere. Would make obvious sense to get rid now and try and obtain someone who'd play for the jersey. Thanks for last season.

     

     

    Agreed.

     

    No hard feelings Ports. Thanks for last season.

     

    Good luck.

     

    PS. If he is still there when you head down tell Calderwood he is a c**t!!!

  5. Along the same lines as doesser1886. I always remember the level of excitement around the place when word started spreading that he was back training with the team. And the longer it dragged on the more people thought that he would end up heading somewhere else.

     

    The club was on its arse at that point and when he signed up again the whole mood seemed to change in that instant and the feeling that this was the start of something new for the club with Phil back leading the way.

  6. What the hell has Billy Reid ever done to merit being mentioned here? He's done OK in the lower leagues but Accies aren't any better off than us just now and people have been ranting for long and weary that it's about time we stopped giving managers their first chance or first big chance, and McGhee was the first time in donkey's years we got n experienced guy in. Althogh we are struggling this year, no-one can argue with what he achieved last year.

     

    As for Williamson, everyone is moaning that we have turned into a long ball team this season after the great football we witnessed last year. What do you think Williamson's tactics are going to be? His teams aren't exactly known for their sexy football.

  7. I was desperate to get one again for this season after giving mine up 2 years ago. Mainly to make life a bit easier getting UEFA Cup tickets. But I couldn't afford it as well as the trip away, so didn't bother.

     

    I'v started putting money by for one next season, but already getting ideas for what other uses it can be put to, depending largely on Boyle sorting out the ticket pricing farce and other issues.

     

    I'm totally undecided and it'll take a big effort from Boyle to convince myself and most others by the looks of it to hand their cash over.

     

    That said I am there on a Saturday to support my team, not it's owner.

  8. The bit in the first 2nd half when he tried keepie uppie with a few headers then clear it with an overhead kick had me thinking he's the white Benni Kemble.

     

    He was the same sometimes, just so blase. When all you need is a touch to the goalie or boot it away.

  9. Not only but that prick Boyle reduces prices for the scum because their games were on Setanta then does fuck all last night to entice more folk to go. Where's all the money for getting into the Uefa Cup and finsihing third last year went? I know McGhee got more but surely that c**t Boyle is fucking us and the club about. Get him out!!!

     

     

    That's a point I meant to make as well. He says he reduced the OF parices to help people out due to the'cridit crunch' and all that. So where's the fuckin' sweetener for anyone to go to a game live on TV on a cold, wet, miserable Monday night against bloody Kilmarnock 10 days before Christmas?

     

    The discount wsn't forthcoming because he couldn't get any money fromhis beloved Old Firm fans.

     

    Maybe thats why on their guide last night Setanta had the game listed as Motherwell V Celtic. Maybe Boyle asked them to try and help him get a few of his mates to come to the game.

  10. On the subject of scouts. Is there something wrong with our own scouting network. I don't mean about the scouts themselves as they have picked out a few local gems over the years, but the actual set-up.

     

    Why is it Killie can find players like Taouil and get Pascali from Parma? Dundee Utd got Gomis and Swanson from Division 2 or 3 and have players like Sandaza and Zaluska.

     

    Even St. Mirren managed to find Andy Dorman.

     

    But it seems no matter who we have in charge , after they have been here a year or so we always end up looking at the same sort of players and almost always in Scotland and England. Even Sutton this year was a Malpas target last summer.

     

    We always seem to end up with players like O'Brien, McLean, Smith who get released from the OF youth teams, granted some of these have been successful, or it's players leaving other SPL clubs or players who used to be in the SPL and struggled down south.

     

    EDIT: I also note we could do much worse and be like Falkirk with signings like Lee Bullen, McNamara,McCann and Olijnek.

  11. Complete and utter fuckin' dross tonight.

     

    Saunders had a good game and as usual Las kept battling away in midfield, but you can only do so much on your own!

     

    We are now definitely in a relegation battle and anyone who thinks otherwise is talking out their rear end. The table doesn't lie at this time of the season.

     

    Absolutely no invention tonight, looked totally inept of ideas, no urgency, no fluidity and we continue to play punts up the park!

     

    Maybe its a good thing half the team are out of contract in the summer because on this seasons form they can't cut it.

     

    Deal with it McGhee.
