  1. A question for all those stattos out there that has been bugging me. I can't remember O,Neill doing us any favours in ANY games since the infamous Jennogate game. Does anyone know how many games he has officiated at since then and what our record is in terms of wins/draws/defeats with him in charge. Maybe I'm just being paranoid and those stats might prove me wrong but I'm convinced this guy has it in for us in much the same way Lennon was saying the same last season about certain referees and getting slaughtered for it. I'm looking at that team last night when we went 2 down and thinking to myself that we don't have any leadership or character to come back but then I think back to the St Johnstone game when we went down to 10 men and rolled our sleeves up and got in about them so I know it is there somewhere. Have we just lost it because players have become complacent and are suffering a loss of confidence or have the other teams got wise to us. I wish to fuck I knew and more importantly I hope to fuck McCall knows and can sort things out
  2. Radio saying that the linesman couldn't be blamed for not being able to tell if the ball was over the line at the disallowed goal. Why then did two cops standing at the corner flag come past us in the wheelchair section and say "that linesman must be blind if he couldn't see that was well over" Asked him to put a police report into the SFA about 2 guys impersonating match officials
  3. Gave some thought to that as well. Ojamma looks good down the right and as much as it will come as a surprise to some on here, I saw Daley having a cracker of a game and scoring a belter of a goal playing through the middle for the u20's against Accies.His hold up play was brilliant, always looking for the ball and McHugh probably had his best game in ages playing alongside him. Not saying he could replace Higdon or anything but if Ojamma was switched out right then Daley in the middle with Higdon might just work. You,ve then got McHugh/ Humphrey/Murphy on the bench as straight replacements if its not working.
  4. Seein as no-one else has started one Randolph Hately Kerr Ramsden Hammell Humphrey Carswell Lasley Law Ojamma Higdon Lets get back to what we're good at!! Picked Kerr over Cummins as a) Don't know if Cummins is still suspended and hasn't impressed me in the u20 games anyway b) Kerr looked no too bad when he was switched there in the Hearts game. Still not convinced by Ramsden but he's all we have in the way of an old head in central defence Play a midfielder where a midfielder should be and a full back where a full back should be. Two wide men who can both attack and defend(at least sometimes) when they have to and playing in front of full backs who can link up with them. Someone up front with Higdon so he doesn't look like a concrete pillar stuck in the middle of the park. 2 balls across goal on Sunday 2 shots at goal, says it all really
  5. I,m slowly but surely coming to the same conclusion. I take my son to every away game and have been doing that for the last 3 or 4 years. He uses a wheelchair so the match tickets are lower than that of a normal paying punter eg Hearts on Sunday was £15 but when you add up the cost of travel (have to drive to every game as we cant go on a supporters bus) food etc it is becoming just too expensive. I am seriously thinking about only going to the likes of St Mirren,Kilmarnock who are relatively close by and using some of what I would be saving to put in a fund to buy a 'Well Society membership for my son and just take in a Junior game when we are away.
  6. Just saved me a hell of a lot of typing
  7. The plastic seats at nearly every ground in the SPL are supplied by the same company so is a plastic seat say at Tynecastle for example more comfortable than the same one at Fir park?
  8. If we're looking at relocating and trying to keep costs down why not just move both the Cooper and South stands en masse and build two curved terracings using what seats/roofing etc that could be salvaged from the East stand meeting at each end forming a bowl of sorts.Alter the South stand to be similar in height to the Cooper You could either do it with both stands mirroring each other at the half way line and build a new curved terracing running behind both goals This would keep the current POD punters happy and give the Cooper punters a better view than they currently have. Alternatively one could go behind each goal and the terracing running both lengths of the park but current POD punters wouldn't probably go for that. Either way home and away fans would be easily segregated. Think that kind of set up could look pretty smart Don't know if the cost of dismantling/ transporting/alterations/extra materials and rebuilding would maybe outweigh the cost of just building from scratch though. I,m obviously watching to much of Le Salvager on the Discovery Channel
  9. I think we're in a catch 22 situation where we would need to borrow considerable sums of money to renovate Fir Park which we can't afford or hope that a developer would pay us enough for the ground to allow us to build a new stadium at Ravenscraig. Depends what value Fir Park has to a property company but I suspect not enough to fund a new stadium without help from 3rd/4th/5th parties which in the current economic climate would be a difficult task. Either way it will cost money which we don't have so the annual spruce up and fire fighting (literally) to maintain the fabric way well continue for years yet unless the economy takes a turn for the better or we get an unexpected offer we can't refuse.
  10. Kept gettin him and Omar mixed up. Crackin goal by Omar btw looked a lot better playing through the middle.
  11. Pretty sure he's no btw. It's an inbred thing. Thing that annoys me is on Clyde phone in you hear so and so from Motherwell has a point to make and inevitably he tuns out to be a celtic/rangers fan
  12. Just don't eat for the next week, you know you want to
  13. Well me and my son travel to every away game ourselves because he's a wheelchair user but I would def be interested in going to the away games on a bus, Means i can get a drink and I'm sure the patter would be great.Might mean I need a hand to lift him on and off the bus right enough. Would even change from drinking in the the Central to Allans if push came to shove
  14. Spot on, its like suffering the school bully for years then finally getting the chance to boot f**k out of him
  15. Remember the night well, Spurs players couldn't get on the bus quick enough after the game but I managed to get a couple of autographs. Probably one of the best atmospheres I've ever experienced at Fir Park.
  16. Crackin weeyin have you ever considered taking up songwriting
  17. Just noticed another crackin chant suggested by a 'Well fan on Pie and Bovril. Hello,Hello We're here for half yer dough To the tune of Billy Boys (if that wasn't obvious)
  18. Cannae wait.First time in years im genuinely expectin to get a result. Can u imagine bein up 2 0 with 5 mins to go?The orcs would be goin mental..
  19. Lost 2 -1. Missed 2 penalties and scored a late consolation. We must have created a dozen good chances but unfortunately bad finishing some excellent goal line clearances and a brilliant display by the Hibs keeper kept us out. Hibs created a good few chances as well and were just a wee bit more clinical as well as a lot more experienced than us.
  20. Great performance and result. I no longer worry about the small squad as I think the young boys who have come in have shown that they can step up to the mark when asked.Would like another central midfielder right enough.Thought that with a young back line Inverness would bully them in the air but that didn't really happen. Thought Las was immense today and he looks to be getting back to his best. Won loads of 2nd balls and talked the young boys through the game. Humph's run for the 2nd goal was superb and cant wait to see it again in the highlights. Shinnie will be having nightmares about him tonight
  21. Gift from our sponsor so I'm led to believe so didn't cost us anything

    Kilmarnock

    Zaine for me as well. The one in the first half where the big Killie player tried to foul him and Zaine just shouldered him straight into the turf was sublime as was his last ditch tackle.Think he would give Humph a run for his money over 100 yards as well. Could turn out to be a great find
  23. OK Ojamma can be a greedy wee git at times but I thought his energy and persistence today meant that the Killie defence were being pulled all over the place. Thought we were excellent today and took the game to Killie, Just need a wee bit more composure in front of goal (Murphy excepted today). Great to see the young ones on display, particularly liked Angol who is very strong on the ball.
