  1. Interesting to see what Bowman brings to table(apart from being Franck Ribery's Geordie twin) and it almost certainly means Blyth is finished at MFC already.

     

    I have to say, I'm excited by the signing of Belic. He sounds like just what we needed in the final third.

  2.  

    Posting that at 4 in the morning you should consider getting a life ya halfwit.

     

    There's your post right there:

    By your own hand confirming you went out and grilled three of your mates as to how much they earn.

     

    What a fucking saddo you are.

     

    I'd imagine he is at work...

     

    On the other hand I thought you had taken great glee in telling everyone you were going on holiday for 6 months after earning a modest £1200 a week for the preceding 6 months. Not having a great time on holiday I take it?

  3. A Rangers team we should have been 5 or 6 up at half time merely weeks ago?

     

    If we turn up, we will fucking pump them as they haven't suddenly addressed the defence and midfield with more holes in it than a Syrian tower block.

     

    Johnson and Ainsworth will run riot and hopefully McDonald finds his shooting boots.

     

    Celtic will hand out pumpings to lots of sides this season, especially at Celtic Park. We have to remember that we are only playing Rangers and should have enough in the reserve to run out comfortable winners.

  4. Midfield will be fine. We're getting Keith Lasley a mobility scooter

     

     

    Wrong! We're getting him a ride on lawnmower for matches and sacking the groundsman at the same time. Toryesque cost cutting in action...

  5. Just out of interest, can you tell the last young player we lost without receiving a development fee?

     

    I can think of a few we've been reimbursed for, but none that have been allowed to slip through the net as it were.

  6. Robbie Leitch was one of our most highly rated youth players and vultures had been circling for while. I've no doubt we offered him a contract in the eventuality he was taken off our hands by a richer club.

  7. Promising start to summer recruitment. If we were to secure Bannigan, Brill(If fit) and McDonald then I would say that we've had a quietly successful transfer window. If finances were to allow a couple of additional loan signings towards the tail end of August to plug some gaps, then I would be more than impressed with our business.

     

    Some well needed optimism ahead of the season.

  8. Connor Ripley made save after save to keep us in the game. Was a real shame he let in one of the easier ones!

     

     

     

    I thought Josh Law was excellent. Defended well and was getting forward to support in attack. He divides opinion, and I'm not always convinced he's not out his depth, but thought that was one of his best games in a Motherwell shirt.

    Agreed. Thought Law had one of his best games of the season today.

  9. Just to quantify my concerns.

     

    We have roughly 1200 Society Members, not all paying money in, with many refusing to pay any more.

     

    Hearts had almost 10000 paying members, of the dozen or so Jambos I know, they were paying between £35 and £50 a month into the FoH. Regardless of this, they still HAD to get Ann Budge on board, with her putting £2.5m towards the running of the club. They have also snared some wealthy fans to join the board to improve the commercial reach of the Club as well putting cash into the project. They have the added bonus of Tynecastle and Riccarton being invaluable assets. They do have more than a few wealthy fans that they can call upon now that Romanov has fucked off.

     

    We, on the other hand, have nothing like the above listed. Even with the size of support and general wealth of it and assets, the whole idea would have been a dead duck had a few wealthy fans not taken control of the FoH and put serious cash upfront.
