Great news, lets hope the good work can continue and we get another European adventure this season.

Media pish it wont happen, Billy Stark will get the job, you could walk into the bookies and ask for odds on Jose Mourinho for the job and they will quote you but he wont be getting it. So pay no attention to who the bookies or STV etc think are favourites. Anyway if Brown and Knox go we will get someone else and as long as they do a good job i don't care who manages the team. We could do a swap and get McGhee back

This whole sorry episode originated from someone with obvious Celtic tendancies running to the press and grassing up Dallas, the Catholic church then decided to stick their nose in and bleat to the press, which i am sure ultimately cost dallas his job. So the two of the are linked, as they always have been since celtic was founded by Brother Walfrid in 1888. So i have no doubt that those in charge at Celtic park were fully aware of the press statements etc from Kearney before they went public.

Anti bigotry lessons what a load of Sh*te they should stick to religion and get their own house in order before shouting at other people. This all stems from the dark lords of the Sith at Parkhead trying to stir up trouble. Their refusal to condem the anti poppy brigade speaks volumes about them. The church are trying to stir up the dark side members to overthrow the establishment we need to beware and tell them to GTF, where is Obi Wan when you need him

Craig Brown should get a new contract sorted out for Sutton, he is a decent player who gives us a bit of a target up front. We will be very short of goal scoring options if we lose Sutton and Blackman in January .

Manager sounds like a real jobsworth prick

I may be getting Cynical or paranoid or both but i have heard rumours that the games were called off as the referree's are still pissed off that they have had no firm commitment from the SFA to deal with Celtic, the bad weather may have been a conveient excuse If most of the English games can go ahead with more snow than we have, police dealing with crowds of 25 to 40,000 safely and everyone getting about, then why do Strathclydes finest have problems with the massive 3,500 or so that we would have got at Fir park, its nonsense.

Esteban who ??? what a great piece of business he was, is he permanently injured or just pish ? either way singing songs about him is just wrong

+ 1 Since i started going to Fir park nearly 40 years ago i waited for Motherwell to win something big, then in 91 we won the cup, the next challenge was Europe and get past the qualifying rounds and into the tournament proper. After knocking on the door against AS Nancy i really thought we would take the step into the group stages against Odense and we fecked up. We missed a big big chance against a very ordinary team to raise not just Motherwells profile but scottish footballs as well. It took me a few weeks to get over that game, still we need to make sure we are in there next season for another attempt, as the Fanzine says " Waiting for the great leap Forward"

I hope John Boyle has more sense than that, the two of them had a chance but f*ck*d it up big time, 1 decent season was all we got, although i think that a lot of that was due to the way the team responded to the O'Donnell situation rather that any tactical expertise from McGhee and leitch. Brown and Knox wont be there for ever and i am sure Boyle already has idea's about replacing them when the time comes, but please not this pair of Fud's

Totally agree, they should be encouraging their local club to use the facillity, Oh sorry i forgot its North lanarkshire council, so i suppose the wee ginger ar*e and his celtic team will have a block booking

Celtic will be seeking clarification from God about the weather, they think the snow is to help Rangers through their injury crisis. Conspiracy what conspiracy, The truth is out there.

Its official McGhee has been sacked, the FUD deserved all he got what a waste of space according to various media reports Billy Stark and Strachan are being quoted for the job.

I watched the game top class stuff from Barca, but Real madrid were utter sh*te, even Motherwell would have run them close no game plan other than assault messi at every oportunity, no committment after Villa's goal they seemed to chuck it. But i agree with the original post, Jack and Victor should sit the team down with a DVD of the game and let them learn how the beautiful game should be played, we are never going to have the talent at that level but we are capable of the workrate, organisation and the commitment, which should be ok for the SPL

Thanks

Taking the "popegate" e-mail thing aside, Hugh Dallas will be a loss to Scottish football and the SFA. He was one of our better refs and is highly regarded by UEFA/ FIFA. The SFA have dealt with this issue very badly, we have enough problems with refs without forcing some to retire and sacking others. But that said change was needed the referrees were accountable to nobody, so they have done what they liked for years, so if the result of all this is a restructured SFA, better refereeing standards and a better dialouge between clubs and match officials then i welcome it. However the first thing the new kick ass SFA should do is deal with Lennon, Reid and Hooper at Celtic, set an example and get some of their authority and respect back

Is that the Motherwell game live on sky on the Sunday ?

Sorry i forgot who we were playing this weekend

Why ? are Lithuanian refs any worse than Scottish ones, or do you just not like them

Looks like a bunch of European mercenary refs will be in charge this weekend, if there is another disputed decision against Celtic will they seek clarification from the SFA or UEFA

My thoughts as well took me a few days to get over that

Why all the worrying, half of the Dundee team will be gone in January, so if they are still in business they will have a team of reserves and boys on the field. Even if we lose Blackman etc we will still be too strong for them. Looking forward to a good away day and a comfortable win for the well. :wank:

I think that the refs want the SFA to do what they should have done weeks ago and take a firm stance against clubs and players ( ie celtic ) who have been calling them cheats and biased etc. We have had no meaningful statements from any of the Fuds on the SFA executive or from the invisible man that is the chief executive. They had the power to resolve this issue and they have done nothing about it, they are Sh*t scared of upsetting Celtic, so they let them get away with doing what they like.

Totally agree the SFA are run by the Blazers from all the wee diddy teams like Brechin, Clyde, etc who are only interested in their free trips abroad and not paying into matches, they dont give a feck about the state of the game. There has been a deafening sillence from Hampden throughout this whole sorry affair, McDonald should have been sacked immediately, Celtic and Neil Lennon should have been charged with misconduct for calling all refs Cheats etc, so i am with the refs on this one. However all it does is feed all the conspiracy arseholes at Celtic park and gives them further justification. We need to clear out the whole SFA and get people in who are experienced at running a multi million pound business, or football in scotland is F**Ked
