Toxteth O'Grady

One of those days that makes it all worthwhile. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CYLNr5ecbI

Went for Reid, with a special mention to Mark Brown ☺

Same starting 11 as Wednesday night. Anier on the bench.

I think Derek McInnes was on Sportsound every night during the week.

Rangers: Ally McCoist talks with two signing targets

Results have certainly gone our way tonight.

I'm hearing that Lee Hollis has suffered a broken finger and is out until after the split...

I think we just need Aberdeen to win their semi for 4th place to get Europe. Right?

Just noticed that Dundee Utd have two very winnable home games (St Johnstone and St Mirren) before we play this match, so the gap between us could be down to a point.

Now on BBC Sport website

I'm not sure which is the more ridiculous - Hibs banning the drum or some 'Well fans (seemingly) considering a boycott because of said ban.

Had forgotten about this until I saw it on P&B. Good to see at least one Hearts fan enjoyed his day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rg_nn3c0wkI#t=47

He's got shin splints, according to the Rancid.

I contacted the club maybe 10 years ago and asked if I could buy a few shares. Think it cost me £100, although I can't remember how many shares this was for. Kmcalpin is the man to speak to about this.

Little bit from the BBC

http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/sport/spfl/friday-night-frights-for-skip-las-152503n.23467115 Friday night frights for skip Las KEITH LASLEY has not given up hope of leading Motherwell out at Tannadice on Friday night. Bert MitchellSports WriterTuesday 18/02/20140 CommentsSharePrintLasley has undergone physio in the last few days on knee problemThe Fir Park skip suffered a knee injury after just 10 minutes of Motherwell's 4-3 SPFL Premiership win over Partick Thistle. Despite managing to battle on gamely for the remainder of the match, Lasley has been the subject of physiotherapy after suffering a reaction to his medial knee ligament. The Well captain is likely to sit out training for the rest of the week as Well's medical team try to rehabilitate him for the trip to face Dundee United, but Las admits it will be touch and go. He said: "It was one of those ones where I went into a 50/50 with Kallum Higginbotham with my foot planted and I felt the impact go right up into the knee. "Fortunately, the medical attention I got at the time got me up and going and I guess the sheer adrenalin of what was a tremendous game of football carried me through. "But towards the end of the game I was really beginning to feel it and afterwards it was a case of playing it very safe. "But we have excellent physios here with John Porteous and Adam Stokes and, with a bit more attention yesterday, we seem to have things under control. "Usually within 48 hours you know if things are not too good, so it is looking pretty hopeful. But when it comes to Friday, who knows?" Looking back on what is a frontrunner for game of the season, Lasley admits the Jags can consider themselves unlucky not to have taken a share of the spoils from Fir Park. The Well skipper said: "To be fair to Partick, they were very unlucky not to have got a draw. "It can't be too often that you go away from home, score three goals and leave empty-handed. "They played a lot of good football and I thought Higgy (Kallum Higginbotham) was outstanding. "From our point of view, we can be happy with scoring four, but we obviously need to tighten things up at the back for Friday up at Tannadice." Saturday's victory over Thistle keeps Well just one point behind second-placed Aberdeen. But with Dundee United having strung together a three-game unbeaten run, and hammered Well 4-0 the last time the two sides met, Lasley is wary of the Arabs' threat. He said: "United look to have got back on the horse and are starting to return to the kind of form they were in when we last played them in November. "Obviously they were involved in a bit of a thriller themselves last time out by edging out Killie 3-2, so they will be buoyed by that. "But Tannadice is a ground we have done pretty well at over the last couple of seasons and we drew 2-2 in our first game with United up there earlier in the campaign. "So we can take some confidence from that. I just hope I will be available for selection come Friday night."

Yip, I'd take a point right now. It's really a must-win game for United if they have ambitions of qualifying for Europe via the league. A draw would obviously keep them 9 behind us, plus we'd have a game in hand and would have played Celtic, Aberdeen and Utd in this round of fixtures. Fingers crossed either Kerr or Ramsden are back, and we can get Hammell back to the left. Higginbotham destroyed him at times on Saturday. 1-1, Sutton for us.

Motherwell: Nielsen, Hammell, Hutchinson, McManus, McFadden, Sutton, Vigurs, Lasley ©, Francis-Angol, Carswell, Ainsworth. Subs: Stewart, Lawson, Anier, Murray, Leitch, Shirkie, Thomas

From MFC Twitter... Referee is coming in at 1pm. There has been a monumental effort from Grounstaff and volunteers. We're confident game will go ahead...

At mini steelkids with the boy. Pitch not looking good. Already heavily sanded around south stand goalmouth and corner flag. No covers down. If rain keeps up I'd say it's touch and go.

Agree with Arnier + Faddy or Sutton. Hopefully Hollis is back for this one (didn't expect to be saying that earlier in the season). Thistle seem to play a more open game than most teams, which will suit us down to the ground. 3-1 Motherwell

You should have been annoyed at the Society for not making this clear. I'm in exactly the same position and feel as if I've wasted £50.
