I was coming from the perspective that we get to compete in the league cup every season, we get to compete in Europe maybe every 5 years or so. So for me I would take a Euro run over a league cup run. Each to their own.

Today highlighted how thin the squad is. For me this should have been addressed sooner so we could rotate better. But it can be hard to sign the right players quickly. As for the Europe versus League Cup. Eh Euro run every day of the week for me. They only come along once in a while. So best to savour it. One thing from the game. Why as Luca Ross kept on. He was nursing a hamstring injury and spewed twice yet played on. Seemed an odd decision. Finslly well done Stenny, thought they were superb today.

That was one for the ages. A very professional performance against the biggest club in Finland. Ok they are not Barcelona, but this is a team who qualify for Europe most seasons and have reached the group stages only a few years ago. We schooled them. Thought Lowry and Said were superb. Moorman is a step up on Welsh, he is that good and was delighted to see Olly Whyte stroll about the park like a veteran midfielder. Whats brilliant about being a Motherwell fan these days is that this is not just a flash in the pan, this is it now. We are a football club who has grasped the fact you need to modernise and play football the right way and the rewards will come.

Very accomplished. Will get better. Shout out to Olly Whyte who was excellent for the time he came on. Proper footballer.

It’s the youth GK

Not posted in a while. Watched the last four games on the tv. We look class. Also the new keeper is superb. The amount of saves he has made already is ridiculous. His handling is also excellent.

Heard a wee rumour us and Hibs are looking at Lyndon Dykes. Might be nonsense, but just wondering if anyone else heard anything?

Yeah I looked into flights, nothing direct. Have to fly to France or Amsterdam and then go from there. Over 600 per flight.

Excellent performance, one of the best of the season. Their GK kept that from being 4 or 5 nil

VAR is to blame, not the officials. They are given basic tools to their jobs and then have to make a call on decisions from poor angles and poor cameras. It should never have been introduced into our game until we had the infrastructure. But here we are. Imagine the fallout if Rangers were in Hearts position on Wednesday. I also agree with their statement on the hysteria around this. The statement we put out today was poor regarding our game being a joke. That is very harsh, considering the EPL announced today that 29 mistakes have been made by VAR down there this season and they have about 100 cameras per game and a far more advanced system than us. No conspiracies, no dodgy refs, this is essentially down to a poor VAR system that doesn’t work.

Anyone know if there are any bus seats available anywhere. Bit last minute but would need two seats?

That’s unrealistic though. I am pretty sure Celtic could offer him over £1 million per year. Easy. I would imagine we would be about £300k - we can’t compete with that.

Let’s not kid ourselves on here. There is a very high chance Jens will be away in the summer. I would imagine a lot of clubs across Europe will be keeping tabs on him. It’s the way it is. Anyone who does well at our club has a high chance of not being there for long.

You’ve done it again! In your previous message you claimed our manager is bang average and in this one you are doing the exact same thing in pulling out stats to suit a narrative. We are clearly not going to win every game so beyond that you look at the performances and most have been very good even when we have drawn or lost. Stop trying to make this something it’s not. We have had an excellent season, have a great team and a very good manager.

Wow. You just love getting the boot in. I have said it before and will again, we need to stop and remember where this team was last season and judge JBA on that. Yes we have had a dip in form but to pick apart the season with that statement above is ridiculous. I have absolutely loved this season, it’s the best football I have seen at Fir Park and long may it continue.
