  1. Driving up from Lincoln on the Friday afternoon.

    Got 2 car flags and a load of claret and amber ribbons to decorate the car with.

    Big flag for the rear parcel shelf and a big sticker for the rear window.

    Will bring back memories from the drive up in 1991. We passed so many Well fans then and i'm hoping to pass loads on the way up next Friday. :thumbup:

     

    PS My dad and brother are travelling up on the Saturday morning with their car (Audi A6) decked out in claret and amber.

    Look out for the best registration plate in the world S5 MFC :thumbup:

     

     

    We'll look out for you, black insignia, driving up M5/M6 from Sth Wales with pick up at Crewe. Well scarves on rear parcel shelf.

  2. Hope to hear 100% pro M'well singing,jumping on the anti Lennon bandwagon dose the dirty work of all the mindless idiots&lumps us in with them,whether we like it or not

     

     

     

    Neil Lennon is irrelevant. Forget him. Not another word. This Cup Final is about MFC!

  3. What is this pish?

     

    We have never sung any of these songs at Fir Park - ever.

     

     

    Hey Jude regular fans song in early '70's as in 'nah nah nah nah hey hey Motherwell' Short n sweet-perfect.

  4. Why?

    My fear now is ending up in a row full of day trippers who sit down at 3pm and get back up at 3:45 and do fuck all in between as happened in the CIS semi and the cup semi.

     

    If I'm lucky enough in the 'random' ballot I'll be one, along with my 2 sons, of those day trippers. Completing and funding an over 800 mile round trip together with hotel costs. I have also been a 'Well fan for over 40 years and until I moved down here visited almost every ground in Scotland + Fulham & Norwich + every round, except Aberdeen but incl replays, in '91 cup. Since I moved here my sons, bit old now, but were only kids in area wearing 'Well kits and not M.Utd/Arsenal etc. Eldest son was a mascot versus D'dee Utd. I have taken in loads of games at great expense incl cup games away to St Mirren in 2009 and I think what must have been 2nd replay at Tannadice against Brechin in feezin cold in January some years ago. etc etc. Oh yes we were also 'day trippers' at CIS final. So although attending every game is not a runner I probably spend more than most trying to follow the 'Well and I was at the Semi also spent a fortune in 'Well shop. Boys might be 17 & 20 now but still want their retro kits etc. Does fact we cannot make every game make us less likely to 'contribute to atmosphere' or make us less deserving of a cup final ticket? I think I am at least as likely to scream my head off & get every bit as emotional as any 'Well fan.

  5. I've never subscribed to the notion that there won't be enough tickets to meet our demand but the talk of a random ballot makes me a bit twitchy. How can that be fair and why is it needed for a club of our size?

     

    Digressing slightly, what about supporters, albeit relatively few, that don't have access to the internet?

     

     

    Very nervous re 'random' ballot. I think they should have gone with those who bought tickets for semi or tickets for other games 1st. Been 'well fan for over 40 years thought of not getting to final..............

  6. Nice collection fella, that brought back a few memories and got me thinkin about the final again!

     

    Anybody else got anything from 91 or even better 52?

     

    I was given Stevie Kirks 91 semi final shirt and I never bring it out or wear it, but just might for the final tho. :cheers:

     

    Hope this gets us many new and young fans that we can hold onto in the years to come.

    MON THE WELL

     

    52, 91, 11???????..............

     

     

    Yup I've got 2 final tickets & programme in a frame. Used to be on my bedroom wall. Missus has moved it to the garage!
