DEWELL

Yes a fab 3 points today but may i say to anyone wanting to watch it on ALBA just watch the 1st half cos the 2nd was like watching paint dry.Some decent performances defensively today and i have to give McCall credit for making us more difficult to beat and hopefully we get another 2 or 3 players in during January. By the way our 1st goal was DEFINATELY Hammell as i was in line with Murphy in the POD and he didn't touch it. The eee aww chants at Graeme Smith were hilarious by the way.

Im going to go with Hutchie only because the excellent Hammell who has been good all season will surely win many m.o.m awards this season and Hutchie is really just starting his Motherwell career now.

This thread seems to be going away in a tangent folks it's called IN'S AND OUTS!!! Not whose going to the game or not and the mess in the bogs in the East Stand. Are we signing anyone else during this window?

Im old enough to remember 1991 and we could tell something special was about to happen. We had the great Davie Cooper and we beat Celtic 3 games in arow. Now this season we're pants and have been for about 2 months now so much as it pains me we're winning feck all. We'll be lucky to beat Stranraer or Stenny in the next round of the Scottish cup.

Feck Lasley was the one player who looked the part against Caley last week, With us losing out on that boy from Leeds and Lasley out and in my opinion the pish Saunders at right back and the pish in midfield Hately im moving my opinion from 1-0 to a VERY comfortable 2-0 win for the worst team for the last ten years Hibs....

£400,000 Sean McScimming. What a hoot.

Maybe the fact that we're shit has made it an unhappy clappy site. . We're all feeling letdown by recent events so we're entitled to a wee moan. I think the Hibs game will be massive for us cos if we lose then it's bottom 6 and could knock the stuffing out of us knowing we cant beat as one of their fans called it...The worst manager and team for years at Easter road. However a win gives us confidence and hopefully a springboard to kickstart our season. Yes saturday's game is VITAL!! Oh and to keep depressed they'll gubb us 1-0.

Im reserving my opinion on this game as it depends if we can get a couple of players in to give us a lift. As things stand their pants and so are we so a pants 0-0 draw but that could change as the week goes on.

Nice to dream but nae chance!

Cant say im over the moon with Kenny Black as an assistant. He was a hacking 'b' as a player. Left us after 5 mins when we got relegated in the mid 80's. Left Airdrie when he got them relegated about 5 years ago. Was surprised to see him involved with Scotland and i suppose we have to get behind McCall and Clark but cant help thinking is a far inferior management team than Brown and Knox. Can see the preassure building if we dont get some decent players in during the window and a couple of victories on the board starting with saturday against one of the poorest Hibs teams in recent years. So J.B'S made his bed so to speak and we just have to see how it goes...I'd be lying if i said i was confident about all this mind you.

I just hope that Pedro Mutinho's been bounced out the door. . He's shit.

Have to say would take £200grand for Sutton and £600grand for Murphy. They've both done well for us but we need funds in to totally revamp the team.

Have to say i'd take £200grand for Sutton. He's been a good player for us and with 6 months left on his contract it's a good bit of business.

Sunday night is an improvement i suppose but when is the 1st time we can watch the highlights online is it sunday afternoon?

Have read today in in the paper that Stuart McCall has 3 trialists with us playing in 2 bounce games and one of them is Moutinho. I hope this is just paper talk cos i know he's pants and has been released by a Cypriot team. The other 2 are a left sided midfielder and a centre half. Am i just worried over nothing or does McCall know what he's doing..Everyone who knows anything about Scottish football knows Moutinho is a lazy so and so and not a team player. In fact it would be a disaster to spend what little funds we have on him..

Yes summer football or at least a winter shutdown is a must as far as as im concerned. Oh and by the way that miss by Forbes yesterday wasn't to do with the weather it's because he's pish unfortunately. The ball came to him along the ground and all he had to do was side foot it with his left foot. He's pants and i've never saw a professional footballer who cannot run AT ALL!!!

I still believe we're going to be absolutely fine and in a new stadium at Ravenscraig within the next 10 years. We're lucky that we have a chairman who is actually a fan (could you imagine a Romanov in charge) money is tight now in Scottish football but we'll ride out the storm.

Yes all the best Mark and lets not forget he's a Motherwell fan. Hope everything works out well for him.

Cant we rename this thread GONE AND FORGOTTEN!! I dont care how they do with their new teams. My interest is who we get in now and how our season goes from here on in. I wish Fitzpatrick who wasn't spl standard all the best with Ross County as for Gow and Blackman feck them!!!!

I think 150 grand is fine. I wish Reynolds well but i was never a big fan of his tbh. What Stuart McCall meant with he wont see any of the transfer money is the way we've been for 10 seasons now. No Scottish club outwith the Mould Firm will ever pay a transfer fee now but we can still use the money to bring in decent players on reasonable wages. Lets see who Stuart McCall gets in before we judge. In my opinion all 4 players that have left are well replaceable with better players, . By the way may i recommend to free another wage in Ross Forbes...No way is he going to be a good player he cant even run.

I'm going to be a wee bit optomistic here and say that im hopefull of getting better players in than the one's who've left none of whom in my opinion (and remember Blackman didn't try a leg for our last 4 games before he left) will be greatly missed. We need new players and now Stuart McCall has a lot to do as well as getting a decent number 2 to work with the players at training. Today we showed fighting spirit in a game previous Motherwell teams would 've lost and heavily (remember David Bingham casually chipping in Livinstone's 4th goal against us when we were struggling a few sesons ago). Anyway my point is that we're in a transition period now as we've lost a manager and 4 players. No team in the world could go through that without hitting turbulance. WE'LL BE BACK!!! We've lots left to play for this season and the players and the fans must play their part. If we get 4 decent players in we can still have a good season. I honestly thought we'd get gubbed today and delighted we didn't.

It is a mystery to me why every manager we have goes on about how small our squad is and yet we keep shipping players OUT!! We really are down to the bare bones now player wise.

I agree with that time to see if the younger players have got what it takes. There's no point in them taking a wage if they cant be relied on to do a job for us and what about the enigma that is CASAGOLDA!!! Im going to the game feck it be AMAZED if we win today.

Is there any truth in the rumour that Motherwell fans have to bring their football boots with them tommorow just in case...It's getting a bit thin on the ground... . Just for the record and to 'free' another wage i'd punt Forbes asap also.

Best wishes to him frankly he was a dissapointment for us. He burst onto the scene and looked a prospect but basically didn't have enough ability for the spl but hope he does well for Ross County.
