  1. This. Plus, I think potential signings would want to know who they are playing for/being coached by - is it Brown/Know or is that just for the rest of the season (if even that long) and some new boy comes in that maybe doesn't fancy these players and dumps them. This short-term outlook will affect our long-term ambitions, and at a time when money is tight.

     

     

    your right about that mate i heard craig brown mention a few days ago that hes been talking to a few agents and its the first thing they ask him how long is he going to be manager for and of course he cant tell them.hopefully we can get a couple of players in but you can see how some players would be put off with us having a interim manager

  2. How much did Hertz get for Berra?

     

    Reynolds is worth a million at least. I think he will be offski though.

     

    im sure it was £2.5million berra went for.i agree we should be looking for atleast a million for reynolds we turned down that fae rangers two year ago so to take anything less now when hes a more improved player would be daft

  3. Well they dont walk out on other clubs with the same regularity they do here.

     

    mcghee is famous for walkin out on teams to join another,malpas has been sacked from his only two goes as being a club manager so i think youll find were not the only club these guys have left

  4. Your fuckin right i have an issue with Boyle. This is the latest in a long line of incompetent

    fuck ups on his part. I am royally hacked off with the stewardship of the club since Boyle bumbled his way in talking about the "NEW Motherwell" and then taking a club in the black deep into debt. I am not sure that Gannon was even sacked, I have a feeling that he walked. Anyway we will find out soon.

    I have never believed or stated he is Machiavellian - I dont thinks hes that clever. He is an opportunist but certainly not a long term planner. There is no plan other than to make money for Boyle and then get out. The club is still up for sale is it not?

    And if you believe that there is some long term goal here to make us a force in the SPL then you sir are delusional.

     

     

    you really do talk some shite.there is no money at our club to have a long term plan let alone make us a force in the spl end of story

  5. No they didnt ALL get 2 seasons. Only 3 out of seven were here for two seasons and only 1 was here for more then that. Not sure I can be bothered repeating this again so I refer the right honourable gentleman to the answer I gave some posts ago.

    What Im looking for is some stability and 8 management teams in 11 years is NOT in any way shape or form stability. Brown is interim so doubtful he will be here long term so we are looking at 4 different management teams in the space of 1 year. Even the most optimistic Boyle fan must admit that this is NOT stability.

     

    burma your saying we have a problem retaining managers have you ever thought thats know all down to the club eric black left when we went into admin,butcher done a great job with us but his time had come to an end and it was best for a new manager to come in.malpas made a c**t of it and had to be sacked and then mcghee was desperate to get away from us so boyle done the right thing and got a good bit of compo for him.im sure theres more to the gannon departure than we know about but going on whats been mentioned so far then i dont think boyle had much choice other than get rid of him.

  6. Yeah it would be for Boyle. But when Gannon asks why there was no money for him to replace the players he doesnt rate and is told no chance. Then Boyle sees a golden opportunity to make himself some cash he dives in. Fantastic move. Not only do we NOT strengthen the areas we need to but we lose a manager and we sign no one in the transfer window. No manager in place til after tthe window closes im willing to bet.

     

    John Boyle is a rich man for a reason. And its not because he has the best interests of motherwell fans at heart.

     

    so are you telling us that were signing ruddy permenantly cause you seem to think you know everything thats going on behind the scenes at fir park

  7. Yeah cos the chairman should be the one who determines where the money is spent on playing staff. not the manager. that would be silly Especially when hes looking to pocket a percentage of the profit. Masterstroke by Boyle. the man truly is a genius at lining his own pockets. :notworthy:

     

    it would be a masterstroke if boyle was to pay the money and sign ruddy permanently and then sell him for a profit so he would be a genius

  8. My apologies. In my defence you write as one. Your still a short sighted fud though.

    Im actually quite pleased that Flow doesnt bother with me. I havent bothered wi him for years. All Fur coat and no knickers.

     

    As for your assertion that Gannons deadline passed today, which you admit is a guess, well if thats the case then why dont the club just come out and say that?

     

    i bet youll be glad when your back at school

  9. Yes because your remit tells you that. Ask a Charlto fan, ask a Partick Thistle fan and ask a Southhampton fan all teams who are worse off than us but the fans have got BEHIND their team and now they are reaping the reward. Why? because they showed patience,

     

    charlton,thistle and southampton there fans have never booed there team at the final whistle before if only our fans were as good as theres

  10. shocking performance theres no other words for it.the lack of fight in the team right now is a worry and we need to forget about fair play awards and how many few cards were picking up and develop a tougher side to our game.as for the booing at the end of the game totally justified imo when u have to pay to watch that shite

  11. weve had a really tough run of games of late with hibs,celtic and rangers and were still in 5th place so its no all doom and gloom although todays result is hard to take.weve got games coming up that we should be looking to win and with a few players back fae injury we should start picking up points again starting next week against st johnstone

  12. McDonald had signed for Celtic before the end of the season though.

     

    I'm sure it was a good few games before the split that the deal was done.

     

    i remember mcdonald going in the huff when we turned down a bid from rangers in the january so he hadny agreed to sign for celtic at that point.wasnt martin oneill leaving celtic in the summer so id be surprised if mcdonald had agreed anything with celtic before strachan took over.thats what i thought had happened mate i could be wrong though

  13. You play your best team. O'Brien has probably been our player of the season so far, or at least until a couple of weeks ago he dropped to the bench, made two poor sub appearances and then dropped out completely.

     

    If, if being the important word, O'Brien can play to the level he had been before being 'unsettled' then he should play.

     

    Remember Scott McDonald played on in the team after signing a pre-contract with Celtic and even although lots of fans wanted him out the side he scored the goals that basically kept us up that season.

     

    You don't cut off your nose to spite your face.

     

    mcdonald didnt sign a pre contract with celtic we sold him for 750k i think he still had a year on his contract with us before he left.if o'brien has indicated that hes offski then he should be nowhere near the team imo

  14. fuck sake mate get a grip we could go joint 3rd at the weekend if results go our way and your moaning about us playing 1 up front.weve been playing with 2 wingers this season and 2 attacking full backs in yass and hammell and reynolds has pushed on a lot when hes had to play left back plus the fact weve got a goal scoring midfielder in ross forbes.its hardly negative tactics weve been playing this season

  15. i think tiredness was the main reason why we lost today which led to us being sloppy in possession for much of the game also we looked a yard of the pace.maybe the inverness game goin to extra time was a big factor.todays game aside weve done really well so far this season and im sure well bounce back starting next week against falkirk

  16. Cheers for the good words. Have just read the blog on the BBC website regarding the young Stockport striker who's lost his brother to leukaemia and and all that the club have done/are doing for the charities associated with the disease.

     

    BBC Article

     

    Hats off to Stockport. It sets an example of how a club can conduct itself in these circumstances. Certainly won this Well fan's admiration...

     

    spot on MB credit to stockport for the way theyve handled that terrible situation.condolences to the stockport player thats just lost his brother and if thats not bad enough his younger brother is also suffering from leukaemia.im sure jimbo would love to take motherwell down to stockport for a pre season friendly maybe we could turn it into a fundraiser with all proceeds going to leukaemia
