  1. Don't bring sound rational thinking into this!!!!!! What I like is Steelboys thought process where he has made his mind up that any potential deal with an outside investor will result in the death of Motherwell FC, which as far as I can see is based upon knowing:- 1- absolutely nothing 2- pure speculation 3- turning that speculation into fact in his head But I do respect the fact that he is just carrying on with it as it makes for great reading 🤣 Steelboy, I get that you clearly love Motherwell and the fan ownership model but lets just actually wait and see what the details of the deal are 👍 COYW!!!!!!

  2. Interesting fact for football fans. Most people know that The Proclaimers are massive Hibs fans and that their fantastic song Sunshine On Leith is sung at games. But something a lot of you do not realise is that many years ago , brothers Craig and Charlie both worked as groundsmen for the club. They got the sack after players complained that the grass was too long and it ruined their passing game. The brothers blamed this on DIY store B and Q They went to Bathgate no mower, Linwood no mower, Irvine no mower, Lochaber no mower, Sutherland no mower, Lewis no mower, Skye no mower..........

  3. I think we just wait until discussions have taken place and then we are in a position to decide. Everyone coming up with their own assessments when a lot could be hearsay. Let's focus on tomorrow as it's the priority...COYW

  6. And that's your prerogative, but don't criticise others because they chose to question what, in their eyes, is a poorly constructed article written by a Motherwell fan because it's written by a Motherwell fan.

  7. It's being published by a reputable journalist who is a huge Motherwell fan. Why not take him at his word?

  8. I'm just looking forward to leaning in to the corporate synergy that leverages KPIs of the verticals in the intersectional market segments funnel as we disrupt the traditional leather based sphere projectile space.

  12. Barmack said quite clearly that he did not want to disempower the Society. In fact he was all for supporting it and helping it grow, working in a partnership. Without providing any evidence, the Scotsman journalist is essentially calling him a liar. The whole tone of the article could almost convince me it was written by Steelboy, or at the very least he had input. Perhaps we now know his ‘in the know’ source. At the end of the day Members will decide whether or not to accept any investment offer. So the Society is in a position of strength. If Barmack suddenly declares he wants majority control, then that vote will likely go against him. And what can he do if the Society does reject his offer? Let’s wait until we see the full terms of any offer. Then the fans will decide. Steelboy and McCafferty are trying to stir up unrest without any real evidence to support their allegations. Throw enough shit and some will stick appears to be the plan. If there is any basis in their fears then all will become clear in due course.

  14. Do we though? Aberdeen on the last day, and Livingston for a top 6 may say otherwise. Adding in beating the old Rangers then late goal against Hibs to avoid relegation. 6-1 against Newco.

  15. Aye. Our latest accounts show 6m in turnover and 5m in wages. Weir said player wages are 50% of turn over so we are spending 3m a year (or 58k a week) on players. That's plenty. This season we have had 9 or 10 deadweight contracts and are still in the mix for the top 6. The budget is totally fine and even if we see an increase it's not going to bridge us to the level of Hearts, Hibs and Aberdeen.

  18. Steelboy talking about usual online roasters - presumably with a straight face, is top bantz. What we all need to set us up for the day. Anyone got a blow torch? Think Steelboy has lost his

  19. Well for a start being "an ex-VP of Netflix" means fuck all to me. I had never heard of this guy until last week so i'm obviously going to be sceptical. I'll take the word of long time Motherwell fans ahead of some Californian Tech guy, that's just sensible.

  20. There is literally nothing in that article that backs that up, other than the opening paragraph and it saying the WS voted it would consider it. I would hardly say that it's "confirmed" because of who his dad is/was. Because if that is the reason he's in the know, that's undermining the potential outcome of an ongoing commercial/financial negotiation and would be incredibly unprofessional from both of them. But y'know, it pushes an agenda.

  21. We've got everything to lose. Literally. It's ours and we can lose it. It's not about whether these people are Bond villains or not. It's about the long term future of the club, maybe these people won't fuck us over but they might sell up in a few years and the next owner could be anyone. It took less than four years for Boyle to pull the plug due to his other businesses. Les gave up after two years due to unforeseen health problems. Things can change quickly when you are reliant on one person.

  22. No red line for me. The society need to get their act together and sharpish as far as I'm concerned. I want investment into my club and thats it.
