Could be another avenue for us to unearth some unknown talent with him now going to England and hopefully still retaining some affection for Motherwell. is that selfish?

Some over the top melodramatic posts regarding Faddy I think. He's not playing so well at the moment at some point he will hit form. Thats's it. No differnt to other players or teams. They all go through good and bad patches.

Don't what the financial side is but would be good if we could do a bit of business and tie up Ainsworth and Anier before they attract to much attention. especially if we onlyhave them until January.

Still lots of room for improvement ( ie how we conceded the 2 goals ) but I would say that's our best game so far in that we had much longer spells of playing well as opposed to just "flashes" of playing well. Thought ZFA had a great first half but somewhat disappeared during the second half. Carswell has definately made himself a first team regular now. Well done to the lad for stepping up a notch or two. Probably our most consistent player this season I would say, without ever really being MoM. I think his form is now allowing Lasley to come on to a better game. Can't wait for las to take another freekick, what a belter that was!!

I don't think it's coincedence that Lasley is starting to play a lot better now that Carswell is in ther performing as well.

We should get the Saudi prince instead of them getting McCall

I know we do not have a lot of money but we still need a squad, not just a team. No idea how much Bob is on but I think he might still chime in with a few goals off the bench and added to that we have not signed Ainsworth or Anier, they are on loand ( till January just ? ) So I don't think giving Bob a 2 year contract is a bad thing

We should have Hutchison mark McManus at opposition set pieces, that shoulld reduce the danger

I'm sure he wil get better as time goes by

only if you're serious :-)

somwhat of a contradiction but I think he plays better attacking football when he is given a more defensive role. Coming from a defensive poition he can see everything in front of him. Now he is being played further up the field and I think it will take hime time to adjust since is now getting the ball with his back to the attacking half. He needs to learn how to time runs and also open up his body position and hopefully getitng used to bothof those will mean he is not receiving the ball with his back to the efending players. So for me he is in a totally new role and will need time to adapt

it may depend on what the red card offence is but can't be arsed looking it up. We'll just beat them whether he plays or not! 2 - 0 Super well. I think I may be the anti MJC .............. to clarify NOT MJC's auntie

Confident that we will get a victory against Thistle. 2-0 to Super 'Well

I have confidence that McCall will sort it out and that we will finish in the top 6. Will we make a realistic challenge for a european spot in the league? That probably depends on how quickly he can sort it out. Perhaps in the Scottish cup.

So Hately still not signed for anyone?

Thanks Andy. Totally agree, accomodating friendlies into the schedule is certainly to allow Celtic to make some extra money at the expense of undermining the importance of our national league competition.

They should just get rid of that rule. When and why did they introduce that rule anyway and what is the rule?

Does the Ramsden cup count? although thier history in that tournament is pretty bad

See! You just highlighted how much progress we have made over the years. We are all now scunnered at a much higher level than we used to be!!

As far I could see Keeper is blameless. Not even sure why McManus even had to touch the ball. I couldn't belive it when t I watched the ball go in the net. Obviously he was trying to head it over but would have been harmless if he just let it go. Daft error but I am sure he wil help us get many points this season

Seems like a worse reaction to the missed penalty tonight than the one from Murphy against Odense that might actually have meant something.

My preference would have been to have a go at them with our strongest team. In saying that the decision to leave the 3 behind doesn't really bother me. Especially since I am not sure what our strongest team is! I assume McCall knows what his tactics will be and I would have been inclined to leave Sutton out and go with someone more mobile up front anyway. I think similarly in midfield he will be going for more energy and workrate in place of the chance of Faddy producing a brilliant moment. I don't think he lacks ambition, just that he is realistic and as someone mentioned, may well have chosen not to start the 3 of them anyway even if they had been there. Still holding out hope for a 3 - 1 win for super well

haven't seen anythin official anywhere about him signing for anyone

A 3 - 1 result for us is not impossible. You never know how a game will go. We have to go there beliveing that we can do it. Every team has an off day and the longer Kuban has gone without messing up the more likely that game is due. So why not Thursday's game COYW
