All the best to everyone travelling. Seems the organisation over there is somewhat haphazzard but if everyone gets in free it all adds to the experience. So jealous of those travelling. It will be magic regardless of the score. PS. We should play our strongest team for no other reason than out of respect for the effort of those travelling. Only problem is we dont know what our strongest team is!

Todays game needs to be taken in the context of the fact we had a big game on Thursday and a long journey to/from Russia coming up. We have to rotate players best we can due to the small squad. Factor in the way Hibs set up and that our players are still getting to know each other, then Im delighted with the 3 points. Once Europe is out of the way and the manager settles on a formation that suits the players, we will do just fine.

Hibs sitting in. Hoping for a 0-0 or sneak one on break. Not surprising given their last result. Need to be patient. Our quality should show in the final third.....eventually.

He got plenty around me at the Newcastle game well before his howler and there were still dissenting voices on Thursday night although it was mostly drowned out by the POSITIVE support emanating from the Bois. PS I agree. If he can do a Higdon the boo boys will soon shut up.

Well said. But given we had this argument about Hately and Higdon last season and Mark Fitzpatrick before them its clear that the issue will never go away. Some folks just need a scapegoat. Hollis is this years target. Id personally rather have Gunnar in but Hollis will have my support for as long as he has the jersey.

Somebody told me coming out of Fir Park on Thursday night that Nielsen wasnt playing because he had dodgy knees. Guy said he knew someone at the club. No idea if true but would be a concern if we have given a contract to someone who is going to be injury prone. All speculation of course as the source may not be reliable.

So many new songs to learn this year. Do managers/clubs not understand the pressure they put on the average fan with such poorly arranged contractual management! Especially liked the John Sutton one on Thursday night. Thats gonna be a classic.....if he can score hunners of goals!

Sad news. Tough tackling no nonsense centre half. A fearsome sight in full flow. RIP Big fella.

Had a very brief meeting with a group of 10 or so leaving JD's as we were going in. They were very nice, shook hands and wished us well apart from one guy who just gave me a Nazi salute. I was wearing my new gazelles though so maybe that explains it! Looked like theyd had a few sherberts and were enjoying the experience. My mate said theyd had a wee "sing off" with them before we arrived which was disappointing to have missed.

......this is also true. Lol!

Good post. However.......

They are better than us. That is why we made mistakes and that is why they scored the goals that will eliminate us. We can talk all night about ifs and buts, however, this is the harsh reality of European football. That said, I saw enough tonight to suggest we will do just fine in the SPFL.

Well me and Nole 81 made the inaurgaral Ayrshire Steelmen foray into Europe! On the train back to gods country now. Disappointing result, but a babystep towards the formation of a larger group! Onwards!

Should have posted this in here.... Motherwell FC - The Underdog

To get folks in the mood. Motherwell FC - The Underdog

He is a Motherwell and Scotland Legend. Here is why.....

Time to watch the Underdog video again on youtube! Mon the Steelmen!

Have done this before for ticket games. I did read elsewhere that the club will sell tickets from the ticket office up til k/o. However, when I payed by phone I was able to skip the queue! Call them in the morning. Sure they will sort you out.

?

I like that team.

Nope. Still not working! Email me on joewarkfanclub@yahoo.co.uk

The 1606 leaving Irvine. Should be going through Kilwinning bout 1610 or thereabouts. We are gonna try and get an Airbles train from Central and get off at the Electric Bar. Will PM you my moby (if your PM is working now!)

I have no idea how they will line up and I have no idea how we will line up. Therefore I have no idea how this game will go! Given their resources they should be too strong for us, but did they spend their money wisely and will their players underestimate ours? Only one way to find out. COYW!

Have pm'd you mate.

No news as yet but we should at least open the bottom tier as a pay at the gate option. Give fans every opportunity to attend at the last minute and increase revenue to the club.
