Correct, the hysteria about this game is quite an eye opener. The most depressing stat of all was again the attendance 4353 , to not even break 4000 home supporters on a glorious opening day is utterly pathetic. I'll be amazed if the WS can ever increase our pathetic crowds.

Correct and an absolute over reaction from the fans today. Sure there is a lot to improve but I've seen us play a lot worse than that today. Thought Wilson had a good game. Oxborough coming off his line for cross balls was good to see. Halliday doesn't have it for me nor does Blaney. Robinson lacks composure but puts in a power of work. Every set piece ball into their area was poor as it was last season. I do wonder how this is so difficult to remedy. As I said a lot to improve on but not the worst we will play this season.

Afraid I'm a simpleton , I prefer not to have to work out nuances ...

There will be no replay , the minute the SFA allow replays because of fucked up officiating a precedent is set and the flood gates will open. The SFA know it and won't touch that idea with a barge pole.

he struts about like Billy Big Bollocks always wants the ball then passes it fuckin back all the time.

I can never understand looking ahead to who we might get when you consider the range of utter dross that has put us out of cup competitions over the last 50 years. There is no such thing as banker watching us. As Morton showed last season and many other teams beside. Take what we get and hope for the best , assuming we beat Thistle of course.

This game could go any way, but realistically we should be beating teams like Partick Thistle at home but we all know what our history is littered with.

you are not suggesting Danzaki was good are you 😁 ? rarely is the one game assessment correct but it was bang on with him , utter shite.

I didnt know that about Marvin Johnston I just thought it was a straightforward move..

I actually thought some of our passing was decent in spells and on thar surface its always a struggle. We got into good positions but Moses and Roberston were'nt up to finishing some of it off. Far from a sterling performance but I do think there are signs it might be OK. Final cross ball into the area still a really weak point. Blaney cant dominate as he should for a guy of his size. Marks outta 10 I'd say 5/6.

LOL Yes, thanks for the correction

Oxford United wanted Cadden but didn't want to pay the compensation fee of £400,000 he then went to the MLS where he played 8 games before going to Oxford United for fuck all. I'm still not convinced him and his agent didn't play us. The fact we finally got the fee to me is immaterial, I think his behaviour was suspect. As dodgy as the deal that saw Gregor stevens go to Rangers when we refused to sell him to Rangers.

We should always expect to beat a Championship Thistle at home. If we dont there is something far wrong.

A game we should have had wrapped up before Clyde equalised with a comedy of errors from us. There were pluses and minuses all over the game. Thought we looked far more Direct than we did last season. Paton and to my surprise Halliday drove us forward pretty well. Still not convinced about Blaney. Finishing was woeful. Lennon Miller showed some neat play and I thought Wilson looked as if he has something about him. A mixed bag but we got the job done, onto the next game. Anyone else think our penalty was soft?

My List is Tony Watt Chris Cadden Tom Boyd Declan Gallagher Fraser Wishart they immediately cone to mind , anyone got any other c**ts ** Edit Oh Aye I forgot that wee dick Slane and Paul Kinnaird -thanks for the correction

The streaming access is a fuckin shambles

oh Id never wish him luck playing for they cunts, hope he gets back ache picking the ball out the net but he should always get a good reception from Motherwell fans played more that fair with us.

if the leaked opening day fixture on twitter are correct we are away to Aberdeen.

Aye they were talking to Willie Pettigrew, just like the DR get all their Rangers news from Barry Ferguson.

I never said it was inaccurate I stand by my point its misleading. A loan is debt and if you take on debt to create a profit on a balance sheet its accounting worthy of the water companies. So if we took on a loan every year and create a profit balance every year folk would rightly query why if we went bust why we went bust when we were making profits every year. Its nonsense.

I never said you were dressing it it .. it was as a general "folk"

Folk can dress it up however they like a loan is not a profit and if it results in a profit on the balance sheet it is not a true reflection of the operating costs of the club. As I said typical accountants smoke and mirrors. So the clubs reported profits over the period of fan ownership would be a loss because we are treating a £3million loan as operating profit in if it were not included we would show a £500,000 loss. The devils always in the detail.

The expenditure on pitch and ground improvements need to stop being referred to as a loss and almost certainly take a double take at any profit declared if it includes the £3million quid 20 year loan. Such accounting behaviour , although most certainly not illegal, completely distort peoples understanding of the clubs operating finances. I hate accountants with a passion, no wonder this country is fucked and no bastard knows where all the money has gone. it begs the question that if the apparent profit Motherwell have made of £2.5 million over the time of fan ownership includes the £3 million pound Government loan. If it does the position is actually a £500,000 operating loss

so the reality is it was never a true profit, a loan is not profit. How in Gods name they get away with showing a loan as a profit defies belief and by the same token the loss is not a true loss. No wonder accountants are rich , all smoke and bloody mirrors.
