  1. Swindon win their first match after the departure of their Head Coach 5-0. The team was being taken by 2 of the coaching staff, the first named being Gavin Gunning.
  2. Think he also needs to check he's not laying out 2 left boots for a couple of them. Could explain what happened to Penney at the second goal.
  3. Did he not score 2 for Hull a couple of days ago v Wigan? Can't see them letting him go.
  4. Not news but one for other oldies like me. I'd recorded The Big Match Revisited on ITV4 thru the week. Highlights of 3 games from August '74 presented by Brian Moore. The 3rd match was a 2-1 win for Man City at Maine Road v Leeds. The City 'keeper was Keith MacRae. Good to look back at a show from an era when there wasn't much football on TV. Despite that the main game was Gillingham v Charlton in the old Third Division. I've seen a few of them on ITV4 over the last year or 2 and they liked to cover plenty of games from the lower leagues. It's also good to see games from the latter months of the season back then, anyone who complains about the state of pitches now should see what those guys had to play on.
  5. We look like s team that needs some fresh ideas on the coaching side. Maybe we could actually bring in a coach to work with them or have we used the staff budget on Performance Therapists and Analysts?
  6. I saw that ex-Aberdeen forward Chris Maguire had been told he could leave Lincoln City (currently in administration). Getting to the veteran stage at 33 but always seemed to have an eye for goal. I'm sure he's originally from around the Motherwell area too. Don't think he played for Fleetwood, Scunthorpe or Salford right enough.
  7. Forgot to mention the 2-1 victory at home to Rangers when Dickie Gough scored an o.g. to win it for us. Fraser Wishart scored our first iirc.
  8. Wins against the Old Firm always stand out, especially if they involve a late winner. The wins against both at Fir Park when Brian McClair got the goals, the late Ian Ross winner, Bobby Russell's shimmy King winner, the win at Ibrox when Kirkie and Dougie Arnott scored late on, stopping Rangers winning the league at Ibrox when Owen Coyle scored twice, Skippy Sunday. The Ray Farningham game at Ibrox also had great seethe value amongst the Ibrox hordes as well as the Scottish press. Apart from games against them, the 4-3 game at home to Thistle when Higginbottom was winding up the Well fans was also a good laugh.

    Alexander.

    He's only going to leave if he decides he wants to.
  10. Tickets available from Fir Park. I called this morning and they said Livi had sent some across. Got mine today. No idea about kids tickets tho,
  11. BBC website gossip page lists a Dundee Courier story that St Johnstone are interested in signing Reece McAlear this summer.

    Alexander.

    I think the games up to under-18 level have been going ahead, not sure what's happening with the age group above that. The name that was mentioned on here before as a future prospect was Bailey Rice, think he's only 15 so too young to sign a pro contract and both Rangers and Man City were reportedly looking to sign him.
  13. I don't understand that, Robinson was already Motherwell manager when we signed him as he impressed Robinson in training during a brief trial. Or is my memory going in my old age?
  14. His last 3 Well games - 2-0 defeat at Hearts (gave Hearts 2 penalties), 3-2 defeat to Hibs on opening day (winner a penalty given for handball against SOD), Hamilton 4-1 defeat at Fir Park last season (SOD sent off conceding an early penalty).
  15. The 5-1 defeat at Fir Park where he scored a hat-trick, just before the 2018 Scottish Cup Final, was a horrific match.
  16. I thought the opposite about Collum going for the red first chance he got. When the challenge was made I immediately looked at Collum, he was reaching for the right hand pocket on his shorts for his yellow card when he was barged from his left hand side by a Hibs player. It was only when he was surrounded by them he decided he better get the red out pdq. Still an arsehole of a man right enough.
  17. Almost 2 years to the day since we played County on a midweek at FP in our last home game before the pandemic. A repeat of that scoreline would do nicely, a 4-1 win (that was capped off with Tony Watt's first goal iirc).
  18. Being in the Championship didn't put them off throwing a fair wedge at Charlie Adam last season. During his drink driving court appearance it was revealed he was on £3.5k a week there
  19. To be fair they didn't beat us at all in the league during the 2012/13 to 2015/16 seasons.
  20. Agree, it's pity he's leaving, since moving from left back to centre-half he's done well. Not questioning Lamie's professionalism though, but with Dundee desperate for points to stay in the top flight it would be a difficult one to play him against them next Saturday at Fir Park.
  21. Cup game v Hibs moved to Sunday 13th, 12.30 kick-off.
  22. I thought Dornan arrived with Andy Harrow but my memory is shot too. Could be the Aberlour right enough.
  23. Lamie was injured in the Hibs game at ER 2 weeks ago.
  24. I noticed on Sportscene that Livi wore an all-black away kit on Saturday with Ross County wearing what looked like the Livi home kit, all yellow. I know they have agreements in place about the number of times they can wear away kits but I'm old school, unless the first strips clash then just wear them.
