I understand that, but I feel people are harping on about these three home games too much. There were very valid reasons why didn't win them and its not like we have been thrashed in any game this season. I am sure Brown and Knox don't want us to play the long ball tactic, its just sometimes you have to. Especially if the other team puts 5 centre backs into the squad. I feel we are a very effective team and when we go a goal up seem now to have the ability to catch the other team on the counter attack. Apart from the Hibs game we have been very good at that this season. The St Mirren game will be a good indicator to how far we have come this season I feel. If we can get a good result as the favourites then it will do the teams confidence the world of good.

We can't really complain at all. Since Brown has been here we have had a very good record in the SPL when you take into consideration the size and age of our squad. By all accounts it looked like we played Hearts off the park with a mixture of good passing football and fast counter attacking. As for the home games, well the Hibs game was just one of those days and I certainly seen enough positives from it. The Celtic game we were just knackered after the Euro game, and we still only lost to a dodgy penalty. I never seen the Aberdeen game, but it sounded like they parked the bus and we couldn't find a way through. Again no much we can do about that. Overall this season our form has been excellent. Hence why we are sitting third in the league. Most other clubs would give their right arm to have Craig Brown as their manager. We should count ourselves lucky that we have him.

After watching Dundee Utd last night I can confirm I am happy with this draw. They seem to be pretty shaky at the back since Webster has gone. Also that boy Shala is mince.

We play better against everyone away from home!

Fix the speakers in the East Stand so we can actually understand whats happening on the pitch at half time would help. Let the guys at the end of the East Stand stand up if they want. I noticed that during our recent game with Celtic the whole of the Celtic support stood for the whole game with no issues. Yet our own fans get contantly pestered to sit down for no reason.

No bother - here to help.

Cheer up Diggle!

I am going to miss the game because I am going to a shitty wedding in Glasgow. Bastards!

I have spoke to the Taliban about getting some dirty bombs to launch into the away end on Saturday. Its going to be mental.

Foran is a great player. Would love to have him in our team.

Is anything actually level? I mean seriously what are the chances of getting a perfectly level pitch? Totally insane.

Just watched the highlights. What a wee turn from Humphrey. Class in a glass.

Aye fair play to Motherwell for doing this. Good way to get people active.

Look back over history they have done not bad with some pretty old players. Can't deny that.

The Italians play their players until they hit the age of 55. Seems to have done them no harm. Age has fuck all to do with it. If you are good enough then you play. End of.

Out of all the Motherwell players Reynolds is the only one I would say could get into the Scotland squad. Unfortunatley in the last few months he has been prone to some major gaffs and this is probably why he isn't in the squad. If he can get his form back then I see no reason why he shouldn't be in the squad. Murphy if he continues his so far impressive career then he will be knocking on the door, but still got a long way to go. Lasley - not a chance. Hammell - not a chance.

Aye well done. The big man has had a great career.

Every club in Scotland apart from Rangers and Celtic have paid no transfer fees to get a player. All have been either free transfers or loan deals. Even Rangers and Celtic have had to sell players to buy. In fact Celtic have made a profit and Rangers have spent just under £2 million. That is why we haven't been splashing the cash. Also we were very unlucky not to make it into the group stages - I would say overall we matched Odense. Just one of those days at Fir Park unfortunatley. I think we have done ok in the transfer market anyway. Randolph looks excellent. Blackman looks like he could become a very good player this season. Not too sure about Casagolda yet, but he has played once and setup a goal so at least he is contributing. And if Gow gets onto a game then we all know how good he could be. I think finances are so tight that to speculate to accumulate is not an option anymore. Sadly.

Aye but a six month deal is magic if he turns put to be pish. Also has he not had a few injurys in the last few years? Swings and roundabouts.

Ha ha brilliant! I bet he thinks you are a wank too!

In good news I managed to get Andriy Arshavin, Henri Saviet and Nicklas Bendtner in before deadline day. Football Manager sooths the pain...

SHOW ME THE MONEY!

Here we go again with the whole Gannon debate. Right lets ask the question right now. Where would we currently be right now if Gannon was still in charge? Would we currently be ripping teams to shreds with our expansive passing football or would we be struggling near the bottom of the table and expecting a bunch of kids to haul us out of the mire? Gannons style worked for about three games and then he was found out.

If Reynolds does go then we have Hutchison or Page to pop straight back in there. Page was a bit shaky against Celtic, but I think with a few games under his belt could be a very good player for us. Saunders has been OK at right back, but if I remember correctly from last season he was much more impressive as a centre back? Could be wrong though. Back line could be something like this: Page - Saunders - Craigan - Hammell

Murphy has had one bad game this season against Celtic. So he has now given up? Oh and do you have a million pounds? I don't and I don't think anyone at Motherwell has either. Jog on.
