Have your eyes shut when he was chasing shadows for a spell in the first half? Turned in a fine performance second half mind, protecting the back four, supporting attack when required. On a day when everybody performed, Grammy Coke shone most for me.

Understanding of that, not the point I was trying to make at all. All this talk about the club failing to get exceptional youth players tied down is a lot of rubbish. If the player in question has had his head turned, legally or otherwise, you can offer him all the money and make him all the promises in the world, he just won't sign. As for leaking accurately since day 1, maybe to suit the usual pant wetters... you've got me saying that again... Just feel as others do, in failing to understand how the club are taking the flack from the fans when if they knew the truth, likely it would be Slane himself (and the Shettleston Harriers) who would be getting slaughtered. There's a whole load more to this than meets the eye (Burger jokes aside) I await the truth with relish

So, by spurious claims... Motherwell haven't tried, and tried, and tried to get a new deal sorted, (remember most of our other youngsters have been tied down) but, if someone makes demands, the club meets them, yet still doesn't want to sign I'd suspect you know what you're dealing with? Let's not let the facts get in the way of usual board agenda gentlemen.

I'd wager different, in fact I'd put the house on that being wrong

Pant wetting extravaganza expected when this story truly breaks...

This was rumour peddled earlier in the season and posted as much. McGhee and £40,000 too. Also told from inside the club that his father had informed the club about approaches made by Celtic which he felt would unsettle as he wished to continue development at Fir Park. Confused? As others state, will wait to see how it plays out as I would hope the club are doing what they can within our structure and in the case of the Shettlestons, it will definitely be brinksmanship and whatever.

I'd be surprised at that, as it's tail end of the panto season I'd go as far to say "Oh no it wont". For a class 66 locomotive to have jumped track and travelled as this has, I'd expect substantial damage to track infrastructure. Investigations will be ongoing with unlikely conclusion due to the heavy snow and ice and the likelyhood that the heavy lifting plant cannot get to the locale as told to me by my ex-colleague at Notwork Rail as he thought I'd be booked for this Saturday. Route north of Aviemore has been closed until further notice, which isn't so bad for our train travellers. We do have a bus, at half the price of the association buses too if the rumour is to be believed. Young Alan has taken the reigns, but, it's over subscribed as we speak! C'mon the Archie Knox Loyal and you knows it!

I'd be surprised if your travelling by train for three hours... Replacement coaches likely between Perth and Inverness on account of yesterdays train derailment at Carrbridge. Anybody who travelled similar when the line was blocked for engineering works will be well versed on the pain in the arse the journey turned into... No matter the tactic used, it's drier than a nuns clunge too! First confiscation of booze was around the corner from Perth Station and continued all the way northwards.

Well, that would be a first! He's as bent as the backroad to Shotts!

and thrice Kind of answered your own point there... I'd agree on your second point mind.

Why don't you go home? Why don't you go home? You're only interim, Why don't you go home?

Replacement bus service between Perth and Inverness methinks... Should have called my dad, he hasn't seen a train crash before

John Potter passed a dope test after Saturdays match anyroads. To think they rate Billy Mehmet down that way too...

Cloudy has been hospitalised with Swine Flu! My match ticket is at his house, could be a fresh purchase at the match. Less time in the Western though...

Not convinced, how many players do we have over the 30 year old bracket? Craigan? Kind of hampers Craig Brown does it not? His last success with any kind of youth level would be 20 years since... Doomed I tells ya

Seriously? Treated like any other who wear the shirt, but, performances when they have been included suggest why they weren't included in other matches... our stands are littered with people who have burst more of a gut for Motherwell throughout their careers and are unlikely to get similar adoration

Craig Brown? In the interim could be a safe pair of hands - I'd suspect it may be to the detriment of the development of our younger players though, citing his tartan barmy tenure...

Not comparing their actual capabilities, it's the need to clamour for ex-employees and journeymen pros from some of the usual suspects.

What? Foran was wanted by some the other week too. We've enough journeymen pros cluttering up the squad at the moment - Were you watching Saturday? As SteveDiggle alluded to on another thread, my fear would be an incoming management team likely to build a team around those who exist and others they may bring in. While Frazza above mentions the extreme of selling everybody around him, I'd build our team around Forbes also.

Blamed for a multitude of goings on, but, cant be tarred with that one...

Hammer. Head. Nail. Hit. In no particular order.

Anti-football Plenty of sunbed shops to choose from...

Being 'approached' by 4 different sides of late differs from actually attending interviews in club time...

To think this boards sycophants have him at least Championship bound...

at that.
