  2. But did they go ahead with the plan to mark all the invalid vouchers in the tickets with UV ink

    Jim O Brien

    Was it Jim that was getting played over the tannoy at the end of halftime today?
  4. A young Chris McCart in the front row with a full head of hair? Would leitchy have been there that year? and which one is Stephen Connors, Player of the tournament 12 goals??
  5. It's possible that if clubs focussed more on getting adults into games than Kids and crowds are once again healthy with kids watching their Parents, uncles, aunts, big cousins attending matches then these same kids that might not attend as children will have an asspiration to attend to see why all the adults go 'up by' every other week they then attend in adult family groups Kids don't have to be hooked into attending in early years they can easily get hooked later in life after all what does a teenager want most?, something they've not been handed on a plate all through childhood. I tend to slightly agree with Rocky that clubs have too long focussed on getting families in through gates as I don't see crowds growing with the strategy. Look to the old firm who for years had full houses and never once chased families, only now they are grasping at families to fill half empty stadiums. Families should not be discouraged, but nor should any group/individual by tagging the club in one demographic. Apologies for continuing the thread off topic
  6. Video highlights of another couple of goals for Jamie in the Azerbaijan U21 0-4 Scotland U21 match are available on the SFA match report Progressing along nicely , 'Well done Jamie
  7. Fantastic achievments by all involved with the Motherwell Girls Congratulations would have thought the club would have been all over such positive news associated with the club , outwith the general good news that deserves publicity, from a business sense a real opportunity missed to promote the club in the community
  8. I'm sure 'someone' has mentioned to the press that 'media savvy' Mcghee was talking to Jim and 'others' at Leitchy's party last week. Slow news week, Gannon in the huff with the press, Wee snippet dropped into the hacks who'll be happy to run with it No real surprise. I expect Jim O'Brien will be looking to the future, I reckon he'll already have spoke with the boss or at least figured out if he's in the medium to long term plan. So if he has to go and whilst I prefer him moving out of the SPL, I've no doubt he consider Aberdeen he has to look after his income after all, no sentiment in football
  9. I agree with Gus Macpherson and it was ridiculous back in 2005 as well, just not as easy a sensible alternative, Hearts were pratically on home turf , made it all the sweeter against their hordes 'Mon the Saints
  10. It was widely reported after the game on Saturday that Jim Gannon left the ground without speaking to the press, on the radio station I was listening to in the car they said Motherwells media officer was unable to say why and Lukas Jutkiewicz would be speaking from the 'Well perspective. Now I don't know for certain but.........ah fuck It I'm not even that concerned about the medja hacks getting their nose put out. I will say that I'm not criticising Jim Gannon for it, it concerns me however knowing his history of refusing to speak to certain parties that he hasn't even been able to speak to the official site. I'll get ma blinkers
  11. Silence could quite simply be some time off for the international break not on the bus - who cares if true or not talks with other clubs- he still with Motherwell and from what information is available is doing a good job at managing the structure of playing side of things. I've said it before regards McGhee & others, that the measure of a manager is not only what is achieved but how things are that are left behind, things look more positive on all fronts
  12. Forum is just fine when it comes to Club chat, if anything needs cleaned up its the attempts at banter that deflect from snippets of information that scratch at the surface of the truth folk can just carry on with their blinkers on if it makes them happy, others can sift thru' all the shite and make up their own minds
  13. time to breathe, Brighton ..........until the next time
  14. Should be relatively easy, Saturdays game was pay at the gate but with that and some decent form the crowd was larger than the previous all ticket games the larger crowd may make them think about tickets for the game on 13th February but even then a phone call to the club will secure you one for collection (possibly delivery) or if it comes to it put a request on here and someone will be kind enough to get them for you ( i'll do it if I'm around then)
  15. I've heard murmurs from within football that approaches have been made from a couple of clubs and indeed talks are permitted He might very well leave, for very many reasons that many seem to have ignored like family,friends etc and even for ambition tied in with factors like these. He seems the type to be loyal to those he has made promises too, but likewise the sort that will have no qualms about shafting those that have crossed him ( in his eyes) he has been proven to be a very focussed individual, and if the approaches were made I'd expect him to talk things through especially if it is with people that he may have told to come back to him if things were different but I'd also expect him to take a balanced view on it all. He continues to operate like he'll be here for the duration, professionally unlike others, and as such we can only hope that he does hang around to fulfill what could be a fine destiny before moving on.
  16. That annoyed the fuck out of me at the time and still grates that we don't have a 'protector' for our inexperienced players, it certainly looked like he was fucking with Ross's head I'd imagine someone like Paul Quinn would have 'removed' Wesolowski had he seen that developing. As for the game, Gannon got it wrong, we were cruising in the first half, confidence was high and it looked like it would be only a matter of time to wrap up 3 points Something was blatently wrong after half time, perhaps 20-25mins of the most hapless football I've every seen from Motherwell, clearly some had been put right off their game with the defence already being weakened/experimental, hooking Craggs and dropping Hately in was crazy, why play 3 from 4 out of position instead of moving in Reynolds or the lad Page. Still plenty of glimpses of the good thats around the team just now but so frustrating that much of that good is undone by bravado? Oh aye and Jim O'brien should get some coaching on being focussed on winning instead of fighting/arguing the injustice of a decision he doesn't agree with, when we're chasing a game we need the ball in play not playing into the oppositions hands by running the clock down arguing with the officials On a whole another step in the development, point in the bag, strikers scoring, good fightback but tinged with concern of unrest and greed for more
  17. But the Duke is English Cannae believe nobody has even a camera phone image of it
  18. almost! we charge their Juveniles £1 more EDIT: and concessions £4 more Although we again reward familys with the £28 entrance. after the debacle of a few years ago, reducing for Rangers fans promising reductions for others then turning the Accies fans over, I wouldn't expect any favours from then, unless our commercial management team went into some serious negotiations. Shame but do they even have a travelling support that any sort of reciprical agreement would benefit?
  19. Brazilian

    Hearts

    Hutch for me and a mention for big Starsky playing alongside him
  20. Craggs own goal according to Chick (hows the tedy bears gettin on) Young
  21. Forbes on for O'Brien all the cards played now 3-0 own goal or just in off a defender
