    some liked this kit 
     

     

    At the time I wasn’t a massive fan , as I much preferred the 94-96 home kit

    Looking back I think it looks better now than it did then 

    What a game that was , one of the highlights of that season

  2.  

    With it being the last game of the season on Sunday it got me thinking about last games of the season in years gone past

    This one came to mind in May 2000,  not seen much footage of it since  and taken from a Rangers youtube channel

    For our younger fans who do not remember this game we played Rangers off the park on this day, then the fans invaded the park at the end of the game.  A bit like the play-offs you could say

  3. Never rated Craig Levein as a manager , strikes me as a decent guy though

    He is good on Sacked in the Morning with Amy Irons and seems like a guy who doesn’t take things too seriously , and good sense of humour

    Good programme also , listened to our own David Clarkson week or two back and a sad listen talking about that day in 2007

    This. And you know looking back at this thread from the beginning. Are there many names that folk were saying that back then that they would rather actually have right now instead of Kettlewell?

    Loads of names were mentioned am sure including Levein. He's got loads of management experience and look at the position St Johnstone are in right now. Of course he'd made fuck ups along the way but a massive for me was that he didn't lose the dressing room when we were on that poor run. 

    I would be taking Kettlewell over Craig Levein any day 

     

  5. Stuart Kettlewell has earned the right to be manager next season

    Was a really poor 15 game run between September-December ,  would have been worse had it not been for a good few draws

    Apart from the 15 game winless run just mentioned his time at the club has been a positive for me 

    Sir Alex Ferguson was once a game away from being sacked and the rest was history as they say 

  6. 9 goals in 2 games , a lot to be pleased about with that

    It has a slight sense of dejavu as we finished last year as well strongly with Kev Van Veen the star man ,  on a very positive note we should look upon it as finishing the season strongly with better days ahead 

    Another day on the Well rollercoaster and enjoy it 👍 

    Another good thing this weekend , Airdrie got beat last night 

  7. I have a lot of programmes still,  I used to collect them even from games if I had not been there

    There used to be a guy who had a shop in Kilmarnock years ago, who had quite a good collection of Motherwell ones

  8. Happy with a 4-1 win 

    Wasn’t a classic at all , but take a 4-1 win anytime.  Seen some negative comments already on the likes of Facebook about beating Livi etc but I’d rather just enjoy the 3 points and try focusing on the positives 

     

  9. Brilliant night , brilliant journey home on the supporters bus and what a game

    On paper that is a really good Motherwell side

    Enjoyed that run to the final in 2005 and the build up , with the exception of the game itself . Remember all the Well fans singing Is this the way to Amarillo just before kick off and the Rangers fans looking on bewildered no doubt that they were being outsung 

  10. Funny funny to see the Rainjurs lose , I had been hearing all week how the league was won already , silence in work tomorrow now and no slagging Well 

    Day of shocks all round with Liverpool and Arsenal losing 

    Football a funny old game as someone once said

    Kettlewell. "If we get top six we're punching well above our weight,

    that's shite! Kilmarnock Dundee and St Mirren made it with similar budgets. 

    DOes anyone think we would be punching well above our weight to get top 6? Mccall did it easily. As did Robinson 

    Would not be punching above our weight at all , Dundee just did 

  12. Was quite happy to get a draw today , not happy drawing but at the same time it could have been worse

    Definetly didn’t deserve a top 6 position this season as been far too inconsistent .  To put a positive spin on things try and finish 7th , and play some of the younger players in these last 5 games 

  13. Interesting fact for football fans. Most people know that The Proclaimers are massive Hibs fans and that their fantastic song Sunshine On Leith is sung at games. But something a lot of you do not realise is that many years ago , brothers Craig and Charlie both worked as groundsmen for the club. They got the sack after players complained that the grass was too long and it ruined their passing game. The brothers blamed this on DIY store B and Q  They went to Bathgate no mower, Linwood no mower, Irvine no mower, Lochaber  no mower, Sutherland no mower, Lewis no mower, Skye no mower..........

  14. After todays result no doubt the Govan mob will be fired up to get 3 points to prove a point which works in our favour 

    Potentially a great afternoon next Saturday , or a disappointing one .  Quite happy for the time being to watch the Dundee highlights again later tonight , then see what happens

    Watch the rangers dictate and get exactly what they want on Wednesday, as that pitch will be even more unplayable after today. 

    Just what I was thinking 

    After 90 minutes on that pitch today guaranteed it will be in a lot worse condition after the game , even more so if any rain due

  16. Shocking that we are having a pitch inspection again at 1pm

    No consideration for anyone travelling up to this game

    Final decision should have been made last night if we are playing at a different venue or behind closed doors

    Good that Hibs drop points 

    Dundee and Hibs still got to play Rangers and Motherwell play both Dundee and Hibs 

    Good chance of top 6 still 

    Definitely top 6 still on

    No reason why we can’t beat both Dundee and Hibs as I do believe not too much between most of the sides at all this season
