This post highlights the pitfalls of reading internet forums on a small screen.

From the odd highlights I have seen on Motherwell TV, Forbes has seems to have been playing well. The 60 yard pass he put in for the goal was a stonker.

He started off as a sweeper, and did a great job in that position as he could really read the game. However, he moved to LB later in his 'Well career (and gained about 2 yards in speed when he did).

Which story? The top 2 stories have about as much verbiage as the pre-TV days. Or are you just on another fishing expedition? And more than 2 lines on the reserve game: I missed the reserves game report on the BBC site. Can you post the link?

Nah, it was just the mindset at the time. You typically had to play in England or for the OF before you were deemed worthy of a cap.

I don't think McLair and McAllister were quite ready for a cap during their time at Fir Park, and there were a number of fans (not me) who'd claim McCulloch shouldn't even have been in our first team, far less the international squad Wullie P and Joe Wark at their peak should have won many more caps, and Keith McRae could have if he hadn't moved south. Lambert and Martin were also definitely worth a shout.

This thread is dying quicker than a guest at a Michael Barrymore pool party.

Joe Wark by a country mile.

I'd had a lovely supper, and all I said to my wife was, 'That post from the MST was good enough for Jehovah'.

He'll be fine. Just needs some tweetment.

Where's Max Clifford when you need him?

Well that was embarrassing.

Wait until the managers are younger than you! Gannon was 3 years my junior. Thankfully, McCall is a few months older. I knew I was getting old when not only was the entire team younger than me, but I started seeing their kids breaking through.

Well some people further up the thread have said their kids care about the mascots. I'm not saying this should be a top priority, but unless we have a couple of big stuffed bears in the area that were raised in the woods as Motherwell fans, then somebody needs to organize them. For me, it's better the Advisory Committee takes care of these things and let the Board get on with the bigger issues.

Rally? So maybe you can enlighten us on the details of the problem.

Quoted for truth

Yes, including the Carling Cup squad against Scotland.

I'd be interested to see the figures on that. Loss in revenue from the OF fans would be somewhat offset by, presumably, less policing (and maybe even a slight increase in 'Well fans attending). I'm sure it would still mean a loss of revenue, but sometimes you have to suck it up for the benefit of your own. Just curious to see the loss quantified.

The fact that it's still being debated after review of the footage shows just what a useless rule it is. How do they expect a linesman to instantly assess all these factors? It was difficult enough having to keep one eye on the passer and one eye on the position of the recipient as the ball was played - especially if there was 20 or 30 yards between the two.

Are you implying Steve Diggle = Craig Broon? It's all starting to make sense now.

I didn't say that - I said we need to refocus on finishing top 6. That is the first step towards getting into European football. The sooner we secure top 6 the more likely we are to finish higher up the league. You're reading something I didn't say So you agree with exactly what I said, then. As a club, our first aim is to be top 6. Nowhere did I say it should be our only aim. You need to work on those hand reading skills

I have those random issues too. All week it had been on Firefox. Yesterday the McCall and Higdon vids were victims of the spinning wheel/no load. Tried them on Chrome and they worked. And the audio commentary piece wasn't available on Firefox, Chrome or Explorer earlier in the day.

[rant] Please don't introduce the American style slaughtering of the English language on here!! The proof is not in the pudding. The proof of the pudding is in the eating. [/rant] There are a couple of sports talk guys on my local radio station that say that all the time. Drives me nuts. I like Higgy, btw

The deal is that they are fatalists.
