  1. Part 1: What do the following years have in common in a non-football sense?

     

    1947, 1973, 1981, 1986, 1999

     

    They are all part of the vaguest quiz question ever?

  2. On a postive note, Me and the kids could have bought 12 but only needed 6 and I'm pretty sure their will be a few like us.

    Likewise, I doubt my my dad and my brother will be taking up their allocation of 8.
  3. Was in the q from 9 til 1, tickets bought and now need to sort transport, club were wanting a tenner for the bus instead of the 5 pound they charged for the semi bumping bastards

    It won't be the club that has bumped the price of the bus, it will be the bus operators.
  4. See to be honest, after Saturdays perfomance, I wouldn't have Maurice Ross near that right back slot in the final. Hately at right back for me.

    To be fair, if you were picking the Cup Final team based on Saturday's performance, none of that shower would be in the team.
  5. Be aware in the winter when the sun is lower in the sky, a number of games will be affected by setting sun's glare, so baseball cap or sunglasses required..

    Baseball cap? What ever happened to just using your programme to shield you eyes? Or is that no' cool any more?
  6. I like big Sutts, but I think Murphy's return to form and the addition of Jeffers have played a big part in his recent goal-scoring exploits.

     

    If we can hold on to those 2 guys, I think we can manage without him. I certainly wouldn't grudge him a money move at this stage of his career, but there's always the risk you end up warming the bench - especially at the OF.

  7. Surely if any street trader is selling flags or scarves with the club badge they can be charged and the stock confiscated. Or is it not as simple as that?

    Club Badge, no doubt. However, if all they are selling are claret and amber scarves/shirts/hats etc. with "Motherwell" "Steelmen" "'Well" etc. then I imagine it is more problematic.
  8. There's a guy on telly over here who basically has his own TV station. Harold Camping is his name, and he is one of those weird religious guys who has 'decoded' the bible to identify when the world will end.

     

    He is predicting that 'The Rapture' will take place on May 21st 2011. He doesn't have much of a track record (a bit like the MJC of the religous nutter brigade), but I hope we manage to pick up the trophy before it all starts.

     

    :drinks:

  9. Similar concerns over Nancy, Inverurie, Llanelli, and Odense away with regards to availability of tickets and things all worked out in the end. Altjough this match is more important than the ones listed I'm confident it will be the same again this time.

    Not to mention the last Cup Final we were in. Did any 'Well fan fail to get a brief for the CIS Final?
  10. So we've established that everyone who wants a ticket should get one, kinda makes a lot of this thread redundant unless yer jist wanting a moan

    Aye, but the fact we have made no new signings before the final is an outrage.
  11. I normally do the same but I feel the need to speak; MJC is entitled to his opinion, one that in this case I definitely agree with. It's great to be in a cup final and I'm loving the build up to it and I'll hopefully be there (3rd game of the season, glory hunter in the extreme!) but (in my humble opinion) we ain't got a chance of lifting the trophy. Just coz he's a bit negative doesn't mean he deserves the level of abuse he's had in this thread (not you WMIW but others).

    If it was a one off, then that might be true. However, every week before every game he posts the same negative views on how Celtic, Rangers, Brechin, Dundee or whoever will gub us. I doubt he believes most of it himself, but his lack of enthusiasm for any Motherwell game has turned into self-parody and deserves to be mocked.
  12. I had a season ticket for Bolton last season, it only cost me £50, amazing value considering they are 35 million quid in debt, I don't see why a club like Motherwell can't offer some kind of deal to attract more people toward season tickets...

    You answered your own question - Motherwell tries to run financially as a break-even club. Gate revenues and season tickets make up a substantial amount of our turnover.

     

    I'm sure if we received the millions that Bolton do in Sky money we could cut the fans a better deal.
