  1. Jordan McGhee says “all good things must come to an end” after he said his goodbyes to Dundee FC. The 28-year-old spent six years at Dens Park and played under four managers, winning promotion twice. The former Hearts and Falkirk defender played 197 times for the Dark Blues, scoring 21 goals. McGhee was Dundee’s Players’ Player of the Year in his debut season for the club and this term won the Goal of the Season award for a fine strike at Dundee United. He played a key role in the 2020/21 promotion through the play-offs after being transformed into an effective box-to-box midfielder, scoring three goals across the semi-final and final. And in the past two Premiership seasons he has notched 10 goals for Dundee, including a double in the 4-2 win at Tannadice in March. ‘Rollercoaster’ The versatile defender is expected to join Motherwell this summer. “All good things must come to an end,” McGhee said. “I feel the time has come to move on and face a fresh challenge in my career. “It’s been a rollercoaster since I joined almost six years ago and what a journey it’s been together. “Thank you to all my teammates over the years, managers, the amazing staff behind the scenes and the fans for your continued support through the highs and lows. “We’ve shared some amazing memories together. Ones that I’ll never forget.”
  2. You don't have to gatekeep on every single Slattery post
  3. They also played the 'Ugly customer' version of Up the well by Tam Cowan and Matt Johnstone too, and for a spell when it was fanzine day 'One Step beyond' the best motherwell fanzine named after a madness song ever
  4. Being pish in more games than other teams is what relegated them
  5. Snap's - Rhythm is a dancer sticks in my mind somehow The awful dirge of 'My Home town' 🤮 'Go for good health, we'll win as well' 🤮 There was a time we played both versions of 'From the slope of FP terraces...'
  6. Don't know where else to put this so it's in here. Alexander = Mourinho Mourinho made more headlines when he was asked during a press conference why he had used a different starting XI in 31 games this season. “I have 25 coins, I throw the coins in the air. The ones that stay on the table are the ones that I play. The ones that go on the floor go on the bench. I do it just like this. During the week, I’m having fun," Mourinho said.
  7. Going against 10 men, grinding them down and winning 3-0 is impressive from the players on the park and being hamstrung by injuries. It wasn't Lambert. Davies, Coyne. But it does have merit.
  8. I've been involved online with MFC since early 96, the mailing list, then the yahoo group, chat room and here. It may have been down to who was online at the time but debates were sensible for the most part since it was mostly real names and probably the lack of teenage presence etc. Holy shit that's almost 30 years. I approached the club in May 96 about setting up a website, had a meeting with John Swineburn with grand ideas of what we have now, only to be told that the internet was a fad, that no one would want access to the club's history (Keith and Graham's book) instant news updates etc could be gotten on teletext, every idea or suggestion of use was shot down into flames.
  9. It's not the deciding factor but it's part of the equation for success, also knowing when to move on etc
  10. They are supposed to compliment each other
  11. Do they pay the highest wages in that league? I don't follow english football
  12. I think the bringing players back mentality left with our CEO tbh
  13. Don't let fitness put you off, if you can afford it, play I've done it multiple times now and it never gets old, except my knees, those feel like an 80 yr olds
  14. He couldn'y kick doors at Halloween
  15. We can be just as pish in an empty stadium. Full house fallacy
  16. You're not though. right?
  17. You work for coke? 👀
  18. And we got another crack at the cherry? Which we lost 1-0 to a Lee Wilkie header?
  19. 1981??!! I was at that game, massive rammy on the steep terracing across from the main stand right in front of where we standing too.
  20. I knew Davie quite well, was at FP working the day he signed, testing the fire alarm, the day after we beat Celtic in the semi I had the good fortune to be sent to do a 'wee job' at his house, the job took 15 minutes, Davie produced half a loaf of toast and jam and 2 cups of tea, we sat until 2 o'clock shooting the shit of all things fitba and Motherwell, he was proud as punch (Coop was suspended for the replay, which makes that semi victory even sweeter in my eyes, and his too probably), a real down to earth guy, when the players came back from training we had a wee ritual, I'd sit on the wall at wee Andy's howf and the players would traipse back to the dressing room along the front of the main stand, Nijholt would tap a cigarette and Coop would stop for a chat, Stevie Kirk had the Billy big baws attitude strangely. I'm pretty sure John Chapman funded the signing, or Tommy asked him for 50k for a player and when he found out who it was almost jumped over the knowetop wall to get his wallet
  21. Scoring at Ibrox has it's advantages it seems
