I would like this on record. After many years on this site I can say for the first time I agree with Steelboy
-
Can't speak for spiderpig, and i might be in the minority but my confidence is not dented because Sammon is unavailable.
-
Agree with most of that. Not impressed by Sammon signing and thirty minutes or so neither added or lessened that opinion. Thought Cadden and Frear were given more freedom to play their best attributes and popped up every where including defending when required. Tait I thought had a great first half, not so much second and perhaps Cadden absence was a factor. He reads a game well and makes himself available for a pass.
-
Never saw much evidence of queues but will say that I had bought a ticket for the POD primarily to get registered and thought "print at home" was available, handy for me being 35 miles away. Also it appeared that cash and tickets were being taken at the same turnstile contrary to what i believed was to be the case. Stub was removed from ticket. scanned by hand machine and initialled so I guess it wasn't any quicker which should have been one of the objectives. Early days tho.

Cant speak for the Crusaders game but having watched games v Darlington and Dunfermline. Am I correct in believing Donnelly wasn't subbed. Would indicate a desire to get match fit to play. Team selection who knows. 352 or 442. Last years early rounds had some experiments player wise but this year not so many new faces to fit in.
-
Dont often disagree with you, but,its not who or where he has played that matters, its how successful he has been. Clue is Levein wanting rid. Very much hope this is "fake" news
-
Must remember one game and still early for comparison, and lower opposition, however on this showing may defensively be better than Tait but not as good going forward.
-
Can't go back to the 30's but can go as far back as early 50's as schoolboy fan and whilst I am hesitant to disagree with any communist my thoughts are that football in general then was far better supported so Motherwell must have shared in that. 130,000 plus at the 52 cup final would suggest that too.

Can somebody explain "accessible seating" just curious. -
Thought you would have known by now that some people are at their happiest when they something to moan about Also statistics can be made to fit your end game every time.

Yeah probably punishment for those fans who didn't turn up on Sunday -
Don't be ridiculous. You never get a SLIGHT breeze coming off Tinto. From one lives at the foot of it. I'll give you it might be slight by the time it takes to reach Carluke.

I assume since agreement with Dundee probably only just been made I expect print time will dictate when tickets become available for sale. -
Don't think Carson was bought primarily to be a sell on for profit player. After years of keepers we had little or no confidence in someone at the club obviously saw he could fill that need for us. At 29 yrs old he was given a three year contract and if he remains until the end we will have lost nothing an gained a great deal. If he leaves sooner then the fee will reflect the sell on clause. The 40% sell on clause was probably the means of getting him for a reported £10k. To me this is is another example of your dislike of all Alan Burrows does.
-
It doesn't really surprise me and I was definitely a fan of his at the Club. Nullify his pace and he has limited other options going for him. Never quite filled the wing back option with us. He could easily be be described as a luxury needing other team members cover. Could you see him do the job Tait, Frear and Cadden are being asked to do?
-
We all do realise that he source of this story is along with the Sun the two shitiest papers in the country. Rather than read these posts and form an opinion I would like the Club to make a statement to clarify the situation. Over to you AB.

Scottish Premiership Game 14: Celtic (H) 29/11/17 19:45
Villageman replied to CoF's topic in Club Chat
I share your annoyance for what has happened not only these past few days but also in the past. I've no idea Just what you believe Burrows didn't do to stand up for club maybe not appealing the red card or a statement caling Regan, Doncaster, Lawell, Thomson, the the useless bastards they are, which would have resulted in him and the club being seriously punished. SFA especially and SPFL and their puppets do not take criticism kindly even when justified. -

That comment is fucking ridiculous. We are all aware you do not like Burrows....Do us all a favour and stop posting on this forum -
Gonna be pedantic here and say they don't. I as WS member and shareholder will I presume get 2 votes 1 for each. However I and I guess most of the fans in either of these groups do it to support the club not for rewards as has been repeated many times. In reality though I would hope that only those members who paid a lump sum at the outset and current pledging members get to vote on future WS decision. Clarification for me at least needed.

Maybe not the right place to post, however wife said last night on BBC Scotland news there was item from the Well shop with presumably Alan MacDonald carefully folding up Uncle Phils shirt and saying it gets taken every where with the team. I was not aware of that. -
Except that by purchasing shares they are not buying into WS.

Scottish Premiership Game 10: Dundee (A) 25/10/17 19:45
Villageman replied to fizoxy's topic in Club Chat
Have to admit couldn't make it last night so watched it on Alba. Mousa for me fouled his way through the game, just wonder if that influenced the ref, should not have, but who knows what goes on in their heads. The pass back was not intentional. It was a loose ball that McHugh and others went for with the result a side footed kick. Could have gone any where.
