  1. The booing for the substitution was ridiculous. Murphy was having a poor game and being out muscled everywhere, he brings on McHugh as he's a bit bulkier and it paid off.

     

    Would Murphy have made that challenge McHugh made? No. So hats off to Stuarty for proving he knows what best for the team rather than most folk in the east stand who questioned the change.

  2. I'd go

     

    Randolph

    Hateley Clancy Craigan Hammell

    Jennings Lasley

    Humphrey Law Daley

    Higdon

     

    4-2-3-1

     

    I'd give Murphy a breather in hope when he comes on he can gain some much needed confidence and form from terrorising a tiring Aberdeen defence.

     

    I think Fallon will have a field day against Craigan and Clancy in the air though.

  3. This is exactly why the FIFA world rankings are a load of shite

     

    e.g Burkina Faso are 40th, Venezuela 44th, Honduras 50th, Cape Verde Islands 72nd. Aye ok then.

     

    Then you have the likes of Romania (54th), Scotland (55th), Poland (65th) and Austria (68th) - all of which would comfortably beat the above teams. We play the worlds best teams in our qualification zone. Honduras play, amongst others, Cuba, Jamaica, Trinidad, Bahamas, Panama etc etc - all of which are poop. Cape Verde islands?! Surprised they've even got enough players to field a team.

     

    FIFA World Rankings? Shite.

     

    Venezuela came 3rd in copa America, only losing their semi-final to Paraguay. They have a very decent squad. Would more than likely beat Scotland imo.

  4. 3 out of the 4 strikers will have very decent careers. Russell's looked decent, I've seen Rhodes a few times and he's impressed and Griffiths we all expect to do well.

     

    McDonald on the other hand, meh. Poor when I've saw him.

     

    Heard great reviews on that Liam Palmer, very highly rated by Wednesday fans.

  5. Negotiations over Finstad has collapsed as clubs are far apart. #Motherwell is said to have been intimidated by SLASK FC requirements..

     

    Apparently SLASK FC was said to have demanded "unlimited free drinks" at the Jack Daniels Bar. Something #Motherwell could not afford..

     

    I can't believe some people actually believed the guy.

  6. Was to do with the fact he didn't want to play a full strength team but Johnstone Paint Trophy rules were you had to play 6 players from the last game or something along those lines. So he subbed off 3 of his regulars in the first 17minutes.

  7. I think he's gone. Its 2002 all over again with the Faddy scenario. Not that its a bad thing, cash in on Murphy and build the squad. We fared well in 2002 and we will do again when Murph goes. Well as long as he goes with some time to spare for a few replacements.

  8. Apparently we're looking at ex Man City kid Karl Moore. A winger who now plays with Galway United in Ireland.

    The Article

     

    SPL outfit Motherwell are leading the chase to bring former Manchester City winger Karl Moore back to British football.

     

    The 22-year-old left City last summer after failing to make an appearance for the club.

     

    Despite not playing for the Eastlands outfit, Moore did manage to get first-team experience during a loan stint with Millwall.

    He moved back to his native Ireland to recover from an injury and build up his fitness and after signing with UCD he joined Galway United earlier this year.

     

    The former Irish Under-21 international is now impressing a number of scouts and he looks set to move back to Brtain.

     

    Motherwell are keen to take him on trial with a view to a permanent deal, and Galway will not stand in his way as he has a clause in his current deal allowing him to move back across the Irish sea.

     

    Skysports.com also understands a number of League One and Two clubs are also keen, but Well are currently in pole position to land him.

  9. I have nothing to back up the Fleck discussion. As I said its a feeling/prediction I have that he'll end up here.

     

    I accept alot of people say aye he's shite old firm player. But thats the reason i feel he'll come here. A chance to prove himself. His careers going nowhere at Rangers and with impending signings at Ibrox he wont really get a chance to showcase the potential/promise that he has.

     

    My basis of him signing for Motherwell on loan is purely because of Ross McCormack. He came here as a bit part player at Rangers, but proved himself to be alot more. I'm sure if John Fleck was given a loan deal at ANY Spl club, he would shine. Purely because the pressure/hype with him would be off his shoulders and because the team would be centralised around him that he would shine to be the player that Rangers and Scotland would hope him to be. Like Ross McCormack did here.

     

    As I said I have no claims that this signing would legit in any case, I just feel If I was in Stuart McCall's shoe's its a signing I would Pursue due to his connections with McCoist.
