I'm not too sure that anyone really cares to be honest, it's simply a discussion on an internet forum. Do you think the people who are discussing the matter here actually think about it in "real life"?

Exactly. We seem to change the way we play whenever we face them, and it's never worked.

We beat them relatively easily in the cup last season, and I'm not sure that they've improved much since then, whilst I know for certain that we have. I'll go for a 3-1 scoreline.

It's maybe worth firing the club an email with those points mate, they've asked for input.

Christ man, is that how you would react to your friends & family?

Did you have the Union Jack personally? If not, the answer to the emails is simply "fuck knows".

I'd imagine so. More than likely to start from the bench if McCall thinks he's fit enough.

Hopefully he comes back better than ever.

It doesn't look like it! How can we do so well in other games yet revert to the capabilities of Cowdenbeath when we play Celtic or Rangers?

It makes me sick to my stomach, dammit!

To a certain degree I can understand the whole idea of wanting to put across the idea of being Scottish to both Old Firm clubs, who take pride in flying virtually every flag except the Scottish one, but the idea of a Union Jack makes me sick.

Asking why we don't even try against either of the Old Firm makes us moaning bastards?

As far as the Union Jack goes, I've always wondered, if you feel the need to bring a national flag with you, why not bring a Saltire?

Unfortunately I have to agree. I would like to see Page given the opportunity to step up and prove he's worth a spot.

The simple answer to this is to boycott games at Celtic & Rangers. Why waste your money when you could simply use the money to attend a Motherwell home game, or if you have a season ticket, give the money to a mate to attend a Motherwell home game, or buy something from the club shop? I wouldn't spend any of my money in either of those grounds.

A convincing win would put us right back on track for what I reckon could be a top 4 finish this season.

Regardless of him coming back to us, I don't see him lasting long at Hearts.

I'm sure I heard one of the pundits on the show late last week mention the idea of him coming back, but I've heard nothing anywhere else. I'd have him back. He's a good player, as he proved for us last season.

Did I hear correctly on Clyde One that there was a possibility that he could be on his way back here in January?

In short, what the general consensus is that we'd like to see our team at least try to win a bit more against the old firm, but we don't really expect to beat them. That sounds fair enough. Once we start losing regularly to the likes of Hearts, Hibs, Aberdeen & Dundee United we can get worried.

To be honest, anyone who's willing to pay that kind of money to go to Parkhead must know what they're in for? It doesn't make it right, but it couldn't have come as a shock?

Jesus

Right, the best way to get over a poor display and hammering by one half of the old firm is to immediately look forward to the next game. We still sit third in the SPL table, with a healthy four point lead over our nearest rivals (even if they have a game in hand) so it's not all bad news. How do we go about business next Saturday? Hopefully we'll see us back to our attacking best, and we may even have Omar available if his paperwork is sorted out in time. Let's get back on track!

I'm not bothered by the results in these games, as we don't expect to win, I'm more bothered by the way we go about playing against the Old Firm.

It's this part which bothers me the most. We never expect to take anything away from the Old Firm, but when punters are paying up that kind of money, not including travel and suchlike, the least they can expect is their team to go out there and give it a go. Disappointing
