Aberdeen fans seem to think this is a holding appointment as their new manager won't arrive until the summer.

It is kinda the Motherwell way 🤔 The Cups tend to torture us over the years.

These are the latest figures including Wednesday. 24/25 shown for comparison. I have to be honest I never thought I'd ever see the day where the home attendance ran between 6 and 7000 nearly every home game. Frankly Fir Park generates a good atmosphere with >7000. A good comparison is the two home games against Kilmarnock, in the first game they brought 1200 fans and the second game they brought 500 fans that's a 1000 increase in home fans for one fixture. I know we all probably have some folk who moan about everything somewhere near us in the stands but it's great that the overwhelming majority of fans have totally bought into it. It's rare to hear any negative shouts to boot it long. It's a real pleasure going to Fir Park these days. My only worry is we only have this kind play for one season.

The standards poor but McLean is pretty far down my hate list. Clancy , Beaton and Walsh boil my piss.

School boy error , corrected now 😉👍

49 years I've followed Motherwell home and away and this is without doubt the best Motherwell team I've ever seen. We may win nothing but my god to have reached 11/02/2026 and Only lost 3 games Only one team outwith the OF has beat us (luckily) Conceded less than a goal a game Played the OF 3 times at Motherwell and never lost Consistently accuracy of passing over 82% No one has dominated us we have had more possession in every game even the cup semi final. No one has deserved to beat us this season. It is actually a travesty that we are unlikely to win a trophy when utter shite like St Mirren have. However you don't need to be good to win a cup as Aberdeen and St Mirren prove. We should just saviour this season as we are unlikely to see it's likes again. What a performance tonight , team deserve every plaudit going. This is officially MY best ever footballing Motherwell team since my first game, a 5-1 win against Ayr Utd, in September 1977. Just my opinion I'm sure others have their own recollections. **Also credit to the ground staff you can clearly see the pitch starting to recover.

Manager says we are well covered which I suspect means we have development players ready for time in the squad. Frankly better to bring them in and test them than waste any more money on Stama.

We didn't play the style we do now last season and he was poor then too, so I struggle to see what style we'd need to play to get a performance out of him. Good move for all. Wish him well he won't be back.

Two of my Favourite Stevie Woods efforts Playing at Home to Killie in a relegation battle . Their keeper boots it long, Phillibin (I think ) sees it going long leaves it for the Keeper Woods comes out the ball bounces between them goes over Stevie's head into the net. Another in our relegation struggles in the dying minutes, he goes to boot the ball long and belts it off Billy Dodds arse and the ball ends up in the net ... And the Rangers one is stuff of legend.

Not for me , for the simple reason we tumbled to Gardiner after 3 seasons and 78 games. Calamity Woods was with us for 9 years and double the amount of games and most certainly double the amount of fuck ups.

In the first half Dundee played very similar to the way we do playing out from the back and they nulified Celtic. For some strange reason with 20 mins to go their keeper kept booting it long and not once did it result in Dundee having possession so Celtic just kept coming at them wave after wave.

It wouldn't surprise me. You don't need to be good to win a cup as both Aberdeen and St Mirren have proved.

Even had Killie and Livi both scored I'd still have fancied us to beat them because we have better players and play a better game.

Correct, I hear so much pish about that semi final, the Robbo Masterclass, St Mirren playing us off the park. Its bollocks. The only people who beat us at the semi final was ourselves. St Mirren played as they always do nothing special. As bad as we were we just didn't turn up but we still had more of the game than them and created as many chances and fluffed them.

Did anyone hear what the away crowd was yesterday?

Wondered why I was getting a sea breeze 🤣

We are still a better team than them and if we have aspirations of 3rd or 4th or dare I say higher we need to win it.

If both teams play to their potential we will win because we are a better team than Dundee in all departments. The level of consistency shown by Motherwell this season is off the scale and I have never witnessed it before. Thats why the fatalist in me approaches every game thinking "we must fuck it up and play pish this time" and the fact we are at game 24 and it still hasn't happened is truly remarkable. Even the Aberdeen game I can't get the thought of "we will make an arse of it" out my head and I get annoyed at myself because Aberdeen are fucking honking and again by any measure we should take care of them on Saturday. The conditioning Motherwell does to your brain over 50 years would baffle any psychologists. 😂

The first half yesterday just oozed class. We were exceptional. 5/6 up would not have flattered us. Second half we became a bit more erratic without being poor. Our passing accuracy rate noticeably dipped in the second half however we were never in any danger at any point after the first 2 mins. The usual suspects outstanding again, Just, McGinn, SOD, Said, Fadinger, Sparrow of special note however no failures anywhere. Very enjoyable day in East Lothian... Onwards to Dundee 👊

Expect a tough game on a horrible surface. A relegated team invariably gets one shock result a season just hope it's not us tomorrow. Based on both teams season so far it should be a straightforward win but being a Motherwell fan I never discount any situation. Just had a look at the ground map and looks like we are taking a really good crowd .

You have to question the value of replacing the seating when Celtic fans will just destroy any replacement.

Not for me, he was bang on, these fuds ask the same pathetic questions every week and one thing is I don't think he suffers fools gladly and quite right the Scottish media are full of shit stirring zoomers

Motherwell are the best team in the league, no one absolutely no one will convince we aren't. No team has dominated us in the league and no one has deserved to beat us. However sadly too many draws have killed us for the League title. Even the semi final I don't buy this pish it was a Robinson masterclass. St Mirren were just St Mirren they had 4 efforts on goal and scored all 4 we had 4 and scored with one. Even then we dominated possession and killed ourselves more than anything St Mirren did. We gifted them a 3rd that killed us otherwise they were sweating with 15 mins to go - inc extra time It could have been quite a landmark season but for a wee rub of the green.

In the mix I think is highly unlikely but I think if we won our next 4, which I also think is unrealistic, we certainly would be in the mix. Killie H Livi A Dundee A Rangers H

I think it comes down to the offer. If it was £2 million. Could we possibly make that with Europe and a good cup run, yes possibly so it's worth knocking back. If the bid was £4 million would we be likely to make that with a cup run and European Football? Highly unlikely so that offer becomes worth it.
