steelboy's bedroom wall...

Steelboy's 1st name is Karen

I have to admit, I'm quite surprised at the amount of posters here who'd rather we were playing some early League Cup games against lower league opposition than actually playing in Europe. I always thought the idea of getting into the top six was to push for the European places?

Burrows should say no bother Steelboy. Come up to fir park and we can sort this out. You paid £0 for your season ticket, divide the cost by 19 home games = theres your £0 refund.

Feels like some of the posters that don't like us being in Europe are the same posters that will rip the club for lacking ambition halfway through the season Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

I've watched Motherwell home and away in the champions league, Europa league, UEFA Cup, Cup winners Cup and loved every minute of it, would I swap that for watching us play shite like Queens Park, or Annan no chance, some of the best memories I've had as a Motherwell fan have been on those away trips. So it's European football every time for me, plus we've not played in the Europa conference league before so we need to complete the set. Clubs like St Mirren, Dundee, Ross county etc would love our European record so long may it continue.

So you paid for a full set of home games and think the club should then refund you if you then can't go to a specific game for whatever reason, aye OK then, a great business model for the club, you really do talk shite.

That may not be a bad thing. I can't see any changes in the short term, unless results on the pitch take a massive and sustained nosedive. Continuity might suffer, but fresh ideas and blood may be what would be required.

Why would you think you should get a refund for a season ticket game? Next year i'll try that...... sorry Motherwell, i missed four games through holidays, weans birthdays, walking my maws dug....... oh & i forgot, you were good enough to give me my season ticket free last sunmer! Absolute chancer!

Maintains or improves the country's coefficient which determines how many club teams they can enter into the European competitions each season, and at what stage they enter. Details here if you need some sleep. Bigger payout to the associate clubs from UEFA via solidarity payments (worth £210k to us last financial year). Doesn't mean to say I want them to win, but any and all Scottish teams doing well in Europe does bring benefits.

I'm actually a bit shocked by response to this. Whilst I would never want to back down to either of them I can see how some might see it. However I see it as beneficial to us also in we have an extra day rest before utd game as well as I'd imagine players desperate to get back after 2 week since livi game where we finished on a high. I also can totally understand frustration with people who have made arrangements and now can't make it but also there would have been some who couldn't make the Sunday and now can so its swings and roundabouts I'd imagine. It will be hilarious if we can get something out game after all their fans on twitter sooking up to burrows for so called helping them out. Can't wait for Saturday now and also maybe a great Saturday afternoon in pub after a gd result which wouldn't have been as good on a Sunday.

Helping the Scottish team in Europe. Simple. If it had been Aberdeen or Hearts no one would have bothered ,except sinjy’s in-laws.

In all honesty it's the ugly sisters regular involvement in Europe and going deep into tournaments that has raised Scotlands coefficient to the point we are at now, where potentially 5 teams in a 12 team league get European qualification. So for me if the Blue uglies winning the Europa league means all of the top 6 get into Europe then I have no issues with that , nobody except the other ugly pays any attention to the shite either of them spout anyway.

Is that not what good coaches should be doing though ? the players should all be fit and able to run about all day if required, that's a basic so getting them to play a certain formation, track back, cover when the opponents have the ball etc is more important in my opinion. Yes you need to keep up you fitness but that should not be all the training, no point in being super fit if you have no idea what you should be doing on the Park
