Deary me, another for the 'better fan than you' debate... Regrettable incident for those on either side which has been agreed. Don't get dizzy up on yer high horse mind. In your attempt to get your point across, mentioning more than once as if it matters, no claret and amber to be seen. Motherwell fashionista are you? Need to adorn club colours to be an erm, 'fan'? Well? Lot more regulars who weren't in Denmark will be fooked also. As for them being well fans? Standing apart from everyone else, again wearing no colours, did not join in the celebrations means the group was clearly looking for trouble? As for celebrations... no high jinks and inebriation from the appropriately dressed? Why would the club ban them for life? A matter for the local constabulary, not in the clubs' jurisdiction I'd have thought. Men arguing whilst enjoying a social drink and a little sporadic violence when the mood takes them for good measure? That idea will never catch on over here now, will it? As for the wonder how many times they have actually set foot in Fir Park... I'd wager as many, if not more than yourself. How some of the apologists on here can even think of defending them? Bit repetitive no? Simply for those who regularly vent mock outrage and attempt to foist their holier than thou attitude on others is the answer...

Steve Jennings was boss. Better than Stevie Gerrard. No, he is, really.

Get the chuff chuff, at least it's not convened by a h*n!

Saunders 2nd booking?

Arguably one of the best defences I've seen was the three at the back no? McCart, Martin and Krivokapic(sp)

Mind, don't let the facts get in the way of a good story... more than half a dozen too

underboyleheating already at work on your request, see...

You'll have a month to secure a replica top without

John Boyles' investment group...

Clubs' commercial team mentioned £500/£600... I await with interest, maybe an uptake large enough to fill a 2nd plane in and out on the day like Nancy may bring that price down?

Ladies and gentlemen... another in the great "better fan than you" debate.

Room for doubt? Try these for size... If you know full well 'from experience' how hard it is attract a decent sponsor, you would, given the type of funding authority most understand the club to be dealing with, understand why the board haven't given the shirt space on trust, no? I'd applaud them for that.

Despite showing up well in training and bounce games, active pursuit of Gary McDonald at an end. Not an 'in' for this thread as he's signed for the season for them on the other side of the Clyde.

Droll. Very droll.

Gannon was a consultant for a player agency with a cast of hundreds. His eye for a player? Simple as that.

Safe journey to all. An away goal and the tie still open on the return leg for me.

Is this on the scale of Ali Dia? Has me thinking the club is likely to feature in the next episode of Superfake... When Sue Ness got duped

Club shop or official club announcement... you decide.

Available without a sponsors logo too

How very, erm sanctimonious. This 'commercial' cash injection not likely from an advertising budget? The likes of Barcelona? Cuando necesitado

By your own admission... Heard from several who were there. Tongue in cheek (admin need to update emoticons) retort to the usual mock outrage (plenty acting on 2nd hand info too) when some of our support indulge in behaviour on the wrong side of the very thin line of legality that doesn't meet the approval of the holier than thou on here. I suspect you knew that too. To be fair, I thought I'd have hooked (not literally) more than I did. Kilts? Wedding/function attire and as it's national dress, if it floats their boat, some where it to the clan gatherings at Hampden and on away jaunts. So unsure how this fits with the Motherwell psyche, as it ain't a wedding or function and it definitely ain't a Scotland match. Never see the ghouls wear it at Fir Park? Likely ridicule?

Glad we couldn't hear this in commentary, but, with reports from more than a few sources in Iceland, I suppose it's time I had to show this Kept the mock outrage till now (as the usual knicker wetters do), so with tin hat on, just to throw a little something in here... Most probably not out their cots yet due the late return, but, what was with the tartan barmyness overtaking our support in Iceland? Colourful? maybe, aesthetically pleasing to the eye? The locals are laughing AT you, not WITH you. Some may revel in the high jinks, japery and shit song lists, but, can we carry the motion 'we are the 'Well'... 'WE ARE NOT AN EXTENSION OF THE TARTAN ARMY' Me? Envy those who were there, fair play. Behaviour that detracts the experience of others? Not on. Hope the club look into the affair of those who besmirched the name of our fine following and limit access to future tickets. THERE.

Well, some of your lot had a train journey planned via London/Brussels/Copenhagen/Oslo then realised nearest railway to Aalesund is over 100 miles away

No chance. Unless yer stowing away on a trawler...

Offended my grasp on the Norwegian language googletranslator ain't very good
