Happy Dosser

Surely both could be true? 🤣 Surprised we haven't torn up his contract but then we spent quite a wedge on him, I suppose , and would like some of it back..

Never in doubt!

Is that no' wan of thae anagram hings?

Yes, you're right, I should have said handled deliberately/consciously . His arm was pushed up (foul) by the Celtic player and Sam headed the instantaneous deflection out for a shy. Whole thing stank, as you obviously agree, and we come to the eternal killer question: would MFC have been given a penalty at the other end in those circumstances? QED, I think.

It's certainly a great start for Jardell and I have little doubt he will develop into something special ✊.

You can be a silly sossage with some of your jokes at times but they're usually better than my unspoken ones. Sorry, I'm in a Kanga dwam and everything is rosy at the mo 😂🤣😁.

I'd say a fridge magnet: your jokes by comparison are eternal, although potentially on the slide............. May The Force be with you!

No chance, my friend. After the shocking events of our last game against Celtic in May, I actually asked myself what was the point of carrying on watching us since many matches last year were obviously fixed. Fortunately, my anger dispelled those thoughts. I suppose all we can do is play our stuff under King Alfred and hope we can further embarrass our officials. After all, almost the whole of Scottish fandom (apart from Sellick and Hibs supporters) knows Nicholson did not handle the ball to give Celtic the penalty, hence the general btl delight on YT when Celtic were pumped in Europe on Wednesday.

Yes, that was a pleasant surprise, especially given his family's Rangers background and the fact he is at a much bigger club in Turkey. A good interview but i would have liked a bit more on Askou and his methods, especially since EW thought so highly of him.

Interesting interview with Callum Watt and Scott Burns. He begins to talk about all things Motherwell at about 11 mins. in: Wish him and his family all the best: seems a great environment for him.

Happy for him.

Ah, Billy Abercromby: one of the game's Corinthians 👹. We'll ne'er see his like again.

Mind you, having thought about it, the Mutton Molesters push them pretty close.....

All of the above: they really get on my nazzums too. Their old dump sounded like a brothel area and their new one, The Methadome, is a soulless Legoland kinda ground. A repeat of our last visit there would be just great.

Actually all that head-banging has reminded me of this sublime dialogue from a Carry on Doctor or some such fillum: Doctor (probs. Dirk Bogarde, ironically, whipping out his stethoscope): Big breaths now, Brenda. Brenda: Yeth, and I'm only thixteen! I'll get my C&A coat...........

Oh, dear God, yes! It's the same "great wee team" attitude he deplores in Tam Cowan's haverings until it doesn't support his narrative.

Like most of your comments, I disagree. The white shorts emphasise our beautiful colours by contrast. Opinions, eh?

I really don’t think they give a flying fruit bat in general for the ordinary fans so I’m not really surprised, sadly.

Let’s hope Vogt develops along the lines of that “useless fat barsteward”Higdon. If anyone can coach him, surely AJ can?

The voice of sanity: the manager's had an amazingly difficult time dealing with a new country and language (though his English is better than some of the pundits on Sportsound), a wife and new baby living here too,, a squad in turmoil during the window, a raft of injuries and obvious difficulties in recruitment, particularly up front. He's already explained the quick sequence of fixtures has meant he's had very little coaching time and to work on tactics and, after one of our best nights in Europe, people turn on him after he warned us about our difficulties in beating lowly opposition in the LC last season and that we can't always play to our best because of all the availability problems. That plastic pitch would hamper any team which depends on accurate passing and all teams playing on that surface know this. Whatever happens on Thursday, I'm sure AJ will play the best team he can to carry out his chosen game-plan. We need to get behind the team and make FP start rocking again.

Impressive: I don't think we'll be underestimating Stenny.

A Celtic fan's eulogy on The 'Well:

So many great performances in defence and midfield but Captain Chaos aka Said shades it for me, because goals win matches. I hope he gains confidence from his impressive contributions and scores many more this season.
