gav212 Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 I thought the result up here put a dampener on some folks enthusiasm for the trip to wales, mine included but after i set off it was brilliant so glad i went now had a great time. Thanks to the folks of Llanelli for making us welcome. Especially those at the Old Castle Bed And Breakfast who were great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelman1991 Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 hi there great to see my fellow scotsmen had a great time down here as did the locals, well done on your win also. It was my boy wearing the Ger's top (his own choice to wear) all the banter from the Well we took as good fun and my son really enjoyed i'm not to sure about the copper nxt to us as i thought he was goin to run to mcdonalds toilets to hide as they are not used to footie crowds like this pmsl.Once again well done to Motherwell and if you know of any1 with any footage of my boy in it we would be very greatfull so we can put it on face book. He has got to have been the bravest boy in Llanelli that day. Had a great time mate and good for him (though you really should have had a fatherly! (oops forgot you were a blue-nose) word of advice to him prior to this to warn him of the consequences of his fashion disaster - was all meant in good fun - as was the comment. If I find anything video wise, will let you know on this thread. All the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brazilian Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Just to put your mind at rest, i seen the van as well, its not for speeding, its for folk with no tax, so don't panic.. Cheers.. I think all us speeders might have reason to 'panic' might be a few letters dropping thru letter boxes in the coming weeks wish I'd seen this article before travelling on Friday BBC clicky A speeding crackdown is under way targeting the motorway that links Scotland and England. It is hoped the clampdown will help to reduce the speed of vehicles along the entire length of the A74(M). Safety camera partnerships in Cumbria, Dumfries and Galloway and Strathclyde have joined forces for the day of action on the route. Two years ago a stretch of the motorway near Gretna was identified as having the fastest average speed in the UK. The 24-hour campaign (FRIDAY!) is being led by Dumfries and Galloway Safety Camera Partnership (DGSCP). It will see an increased number of its speed checking devices along the road. Sgt Lee Black of DGSCP said: "We are co-ordinating this day of action to make motorists aware of their speed on the A74(M). "I am confident that with such a visual presence we will have a positive and long lasting effect." Bassa's suppose its a fair cop if we get caught , but a campaign like that you can fair rack up the points in one journey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 What a fantastic trip! Thanks to all the Llanelli fans and staff for making the day so enjoyable. Bus journey down was pretty tiring, but the banter helped a good bit and after a couple of drinks at the Fan Zone the tiredness disappeared. Great seeing so many 'Well fans make the trip down and it was all very well organised. As others have mentioned, would be nice to have a friendly down at Stebo - lovely wee ground.

arbroath55 Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 A good trip, a tidy wee town and friendly locals helped make it. Thanks to The Met Bar who went out of their way to make us feel welcome, taxi drivers for being easy to get hold of and not ripping us off Loved the sign in The Met Bar - there are only 2 teams we support in here - Wales and whover is playing England Friendly staff and great welcome at The Stradey Park Hotel and great breakfast on Friday morning, was I dreaming or did I really see a guy dripping wet in swimming trunks stroll through the breakfast room ? there wasn`t even a swimming pool in the hotel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gromit Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Trip was absolutey brilliant. On a side note we found a scotland flag in one of the town centre bars late on thursday night with Beetle & Kev on tour written on it. Anybody wanting to claim it PM me and I will get it to you at the next game or whenever suits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Kerse Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 JUST BACK !!! Llanelli was magic. Camping for two nights down there, tremendous. Done the all nighter on the beach at the campsite, done a crate of Stella in with BEESHER and Ross (I think ) - Alright LADS!! Then at 4 in the morning me and my mate had to get a taxi, two trains and a bus to Cardiff Airport to fly up to edinburgh for T in the park. WHAT a Week/Weekend!! I am a filthy jaike ball though so off to take a bath!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbcmfc Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 I thought Llanelli was a dump! Swansea wasn't much better. Having said that, was made welcome, and enjoyed my stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motherwell Football Club Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Back at 8am this morning. Fantastic 5 days away. Took in the first game by Cardiff City at their new ground and plenty of boozing along the way. Nearly went to a Rugby league match too but opted out. All in all, great time away. Oh aye, the Llanelli game was nae too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
