Apathy mate. There are very few people who give a fuck about football in general in Scotland. I agree about competition though. It's the single biggest factor in our game that is bringing it down. All we need is 4-5 teams up there competing to make it interesting. The scandal is how teams like Hibs, Hearts and Aberdeen have been run. They should be at least pushing Celtic, but us and teams like Inverness with much smaller budgets have been out performing them recently. My solution. Get rid of Celtic and rangers and watch our game flourish. Might be at a worse level but it will be as pure as the driven snow as mother superior once said.

Spastic hands tokley? Yer having a laugh!

They have more money than us. We are rooked. We have fuck all money. We need to just accept this.

They weren't even invited to the meeting. Its got nothing at all to do with them.

I tried to setup the new league system in Football Manager last night, go Motherwell and the go on holiday and see what happened in the morning. I woke up and went downstairs to see Neil Doncaster wanking furiously over my laptop.

What I don't get about all of this is that each chairman has been on the news is saying the same thing that this must be done to save our game and that no change will be a disaster for the future of our game. I'm of the opinion that the only way forward is an 18 team league, but that's out the window. So they have come up with this cluster fuck of a proposition and SPL clubs are swaying towards it, but why? The problems of our game are cost and apathy. Too many people in Scotland have no interest in our national game and the reason is that our league is always going to be won by 1 of 2 teams. The cost to go to an SPL match is far too expensive and many people just can't afford it. The first point could be fixed if we stopped giving all the money to the old firm - the second point has not even been addressed. But by changing our league to some 12-12-18 farce is somehow going to make the whole thing better? Don't think so.

I can't wait until they put through the new mega league. Then I heard next season it's multi ball and kilo bags of nuts for all fans. Hell yeah!

The club are pissed of at the fans as no one turned up for the Dundee game like they said they would and have decided to use all the money you put in to pay off massive debts and then ignore you all! Allegedly.....

I'm not so sure. Houston is well liked by the players and the fans. I think we have to come out the blocks straight away and hurt them. They now have no manager and also have a huge cup tie on Saturday. They are there for the taking.

Is that a kangaroo?

Seriously though how much would something like that go for. Thousands?

Tenner.

See if we finish second this season will you still be posting this drivel? Every week it's the same and every week we get further away from the chasing pack. Yes we leak goals, but also score shit loads. The strength in our team is to attack and McCall see that too. I am really enjoying the games at fir park because they are open and high scoring. Also what flaws does Higdon have? The guy has been immense for us. Be gutted if he leaves

The games are mostly entertaining. So thumbs up from me.

My mate who is a dons fan says he is superb. Best young player they have coming through the ranks and they seem to have a few these days.

Is Kris Boyd still playing football. I thought he had quit the game to be honest.

they have a sugar daddy

Harkins is shite - one good game in about 20

I don't agree with that. There are plenty of scouts from top English clubs up here all the time as they can essentially get our players for buttons. Look at McCarthy. Wigan paid about 1 million for him. Now it seems Arsenal are lining up a bid of 8 million to get him. That gets scouts and agents very interested in our game as the profit margins are huge. Also there are a huge amount of SPL player out of contract this season and I would not be surprised to see a few of them at top end Championship / lower EPL clubs - that includes Randolph. Look at guys like Naismith, Snodgrass, McCarthur, Caldwell - all have moved down south and performed very well and getting regular games in the EPL.

Fuck a duck...

Fucking stop now its chronic.

We will have not needed to pay the rest of his contracted wage - that might have been the agreement. So no fee is involved. Also maybe it's a chance to free up a wage for a new player in January?

Twitter is a way for players to chat to fans direct which can have its benefits, but the flip side is you are then open to abuse. Ojamma was right in what he said, but as others have mentioned he is an employee of Motherwell and probably shouldn't used twitter to show his feelings. A direct message to the guy or even reporting him would be better. Diggle is right though, we have a real cancer in the Motherwell support and some of the abuse our players get is vile. Especially considering how well we have done over the last year. It's no suprise we perform far better away from home. As for today's game sounds like we were unlucky not to get something from the game. Them the breaks.

Kerr has been pretty poor. Much rather have Saunders back.

Also we are dealing with a guy who thinks our cup run to the final and our third place finish have nothing at all to do with the manager. Lets be honest here - we have lost some major experienced players and we have not had the money to replace them with similar quality. Our current central defence is very young and inexperienced so of course will leak goals. The bottom line is that the players respect McCall and I am pretty sure Motherwell FC are happy with the manager - so why rock the boat becuase of a few defeats?
