  1. To nick Al Franken's quote (about Senator Ted Cruz): I like Neil Lennon more than most of the other posters on here like Neil Lennon. And I hate Neil Lennon.
  2. I was only joking - but I'm with you on this one.
  3. So now we have freed up some cash for phase one of Operation Sulking Tulip, how soon before we hear about phase 2?
  4. What's even more annoying is that you know if Hart (or any other keeper) had kicked a striker in the face who had lowered his head, he wouldn't even have been booked.
  5. No idea what happened in this one as I'm at work today. I'll assume it was a great/terrible/ok result in a game that we should have won/should have lost/deserved to draw and that we're still struggling/back on track/definitely going down. Make your choice...
  6. People tend to forget Slattery is only 24 too.
  7. Nerves were always going to kick in when an eventual win was on the cards, but delighted we finally dragged this one over the finishing line.
  8. If you ask AI to morph the 2 faces of our scorers today, this is what you get Bair Spittal or Theo Blair? Take your pick (and Happy New Year)...
  9. Not just travelling fans, but fans in general, sadly - as the rescheduled 12pm kickoff on Christmas Eve also demonstrated, where both clubs objected to the change,
  10. Take your pick... And Merry Christmas
  11. All the home teams scoring two goals and winning. It's a sign! (Probably a sign that we'll be the only home loss of the weekend, right enough...)
  12. Two types of box I never mess with: jellyfish & wine. (I know there are all too good for crackers; you're welcome)
  13. Turns out "swipe to mute" also works on kids.
  14. Suffered a traumatic event playing Tetris as a kid and to this day I have trouble fitting in.
  15. Nah. We'll raise our game like we did against Celtic and come away with a narrow defeat.
  16. All Puff 'n no Stuff One for the kids to google Make your choice...
  17. Seems like every time a striker in Scotland has a good season that Rangers become favourites to sign them. I can't remember the last time that actually happened though, as they always like to take a punt on the more exotic continental variety.
  18. Is it not the COO's job to run the day to day? That's why, for example, St Mirren employed Las in that role. Lots of clubs don't even use the CEO model, so it's not a necessity for running a football team - or running a business for that matter. It's just one approach of many. Anyway, as far as the communication we've seen goes, we hired a head hunting firm and we haven't found anybody qualified that wants to do the job. That's not that surprising, at least to me, as a good CEO would likely need to take a pay cut to join us. So the only incentive would be if they were a Motherwell fan. Derek Weir would be a good option, but while he's a Motherwell fan he falls inside the "would need to take a big pay cut" category. Although it's good he is acting CEO for now. Alternatively, we can take a risk on someone that's never been a CEO before and hope they can step up. I'm still available for that option - just a phone call away.
  19. You might want to check the MOTM votes from the Celtic game two weeks ago.
  20. Christmas Gift Idea. Buy the ones you love a season ticket that only grants entry to the last 5 minutes of every home match. Take your pick...
  21. I must be getting old, but I can do without the "apologising to the fans" being rolled out. We're all (mostly) grown up Motherwell fans here, and been through it more times than the current squad. You're on a bad run of playing a game, not being accused of war crimes. There are no victims here. Just buckle down and sort it out by picking up a few points.
  22. Not often I'm glad I had to work and miss the game Take your pick...
  23. Ironically, if he had a wee bit more of an ego, he might already have moved on to better things. Hopefully he'll soon be somewhere his talent is fully appreciated.
  24. Rule number one when you're a manager is to never publicly throw your players under the bus. Any time you hear that you know they are out the door within the week. Steven MacLean at St Johnstone is the latest example of that in Scotland, and after Paul Heckingbottom's post-match at the weekend he's about to be replaced at Sheffield Utd.
