Well 2 season tickets renewed today.

Aye but can he do a football on Saturday

Came home and thought about it as was a point that felt like a defeat. Thought both sides were poor and the goal we gave away was extremely poor. We again looked devoid of urgency or any attacking guile. It’d be nice to get a win or two before the split but I can’t see it. We desperately need a rebuild and an overhaul. Our recruitment team are certainly going to have to sing for their supper in the transfer window.

No passion no effort we carved a couple good chances in the second half. Not helped by a poor refereeing performance mark ferrie needs another year at least of development football no where near first team ready and our manager should see that. Extremely poor today. I try to give us the benefit of the doubt and I’ll praise us when we do well but that was guff. If we played like that against a good team we’d be deservedly turned over at a canter

In all seriousness a fantastic performance by every single player they all played for each other and got a well deserved result and they did the badge and the team proud today and long May it continue we’ve had 3 excellent performances this week and these are the standards I hope we keep striving for they’ve shown their capable of it. absoloutely buzzing tonight and so proud to be a well fan.

Don’t forget Drew McIntyre

Sooo a knight hood for Dan Casey for scoring the winner at Ibrox in order?

When I say football people I mean people who can take the club forward in terms of on the pitch. The club needs some fresh eyes from a business and financial perspective. Tell me if we want to compete and keep hold of our better players or sign some quality players how can we do that on our current model.

I’m increasingly of the opinion that the fan ownership thing just isn’t working I think having partial fan ownership and a seat at the table and the society as a safety net/ top up for the club isn’t a bad idea. if the well society owned 35% say and the private investors own 21% that still leaves 44% that we can sell and have an owner who can maybe have a more sustainable operating model that’ll help increase the quality of player we can afford. I’d be quite happy for that. I’d still carry on paying my monthly fee in any case. But we need football people in running the club.

Nicholson for me scored one and assisted one. Played some nice stuff on the ball too. Thought at points him and SOD linked up well

Really am not expecting a win but I’d be thoroughly delighted with a point. It’ll be a hard task but it’s also a free hit for us so I hope we at least approach the game in a positive manner

You were never going to get 100% of the fan base or society voting on this. We’re a niche of a niche most motherwell supporters aren’t on fan forums and wondering about the day to day operations at the club or investment. Same with most clubs most fans are a go to the home games or the home games they can maybe a cup final if the club gets there and then you have the more active support. More active support tends to be the ones who spend time on fan forums and wonder about the running of the club and sustainability. an example is in my own house I’m very active in my support a Saturday isn’t a Saturday if I’m not at the match, I listen to the pressers and read the opinions on here and share the odd one here and there. I pay my money to the society, I even went as far as to think about the vote for a day or two before submitting my decision. my partner on the other hand comes to the games and enjoys the game and that’s her done with it until the next week and If I didn’t go to the away games she wouldn’t independently go to those. I imagine most of the support is the same at most clubs. so I’m not surprised at the turn out being just below a thousand. That’s almost 1/4 of our average home attendance which is about level with what I’d expect.

Great turnaround I was dismayed at half time but we came out and did what was required if we’re to have any hope on Saturday we need to be on it from the first minute

We look second best to everything so far not good enough

What a performance from the team deserved 5-0 win I’d funnily enough joked with my friend at the match we’d win 6-0 guess I wasn’t far off. Spittal gave the best performance from a midfielder in a motherwell jersey in years well done to him.
