Scott mcdonald didnt have a club when we signed him and jim Baxter is dead.

mccall according to the back page of the star.

Get Gordon Young in the managers job I say!

lessons learnt indeed. I'd never heard of anyone struggling for tickets for the final until now, I recall we got an option of a bigger allocation which we took up to cater for demand as well as long ticket office opening hours to make it accessable for people to pick them up,i believe that season was one I did not have a season book and I had no bother atall in getting tickets. As you say though lessons learnt, if you go for a ticket within reasonable time there won't be an issue.

I don't find it hilarious that you had to pay £200 for a pair of tickets but you must have been right unorganised with regards to collection of you're tickets in first place, there was plenty of time in the public sale for anyone who wanted tickets to get tickets. As mentioned before I can't think of a time when 'well fan has wanted a ticket for a match and been unable to get one.

Paying £200 for a cup final ticket is perhaps the most hilarious thing I've read on this thread and there has been a lot of ridiculous shite.

I Disagree, personally there is others that i'd have infront of him but I can see why people would have him in there. He had a couple of seasons where he didn't meet some peoples expectations, that was always going to be difficult following McFadden in such quick succession but on the whole he was a great servant to motherwell fc, scored some really important goals and had some sterling performances. He really shone in the Mcghee era which lead to us getting a decent transfer fee for him.

Went for murphy

Love a trip to Somerset, fine day out. Not long now.

Still really tempted by this depends who else is able to go as well! Don't really fancy doing it by myself!

good job no one took you're bet up, otherwise you'd be looking for a new house!

Sorry, I'm struggling to think of many sell outs at Easter road prior to redevelopment, please enlighten me.

what's giving you this impression?

Which is what we'd more that likely end up with, hence me being in no hurry to leave Fir Park.

I'm in no hurry to leave Fir Park, it's inevitable it will happen sooner or later with obvious benefits outweighing the negatives regarding the money spent on the upkeep of the stadium/pitch etc but to be honest the thought of a St Mirrenesque stadia in the middle of nowhere doesn't really appeal to me.

No. I'm sure the official site will be able to fill us in when something is sorted. Patience.

I didn't see it as a good point to be honest. There's a lot of factors that need to be taken into account, what I was getting at was it wasn't as simple as the club saying "aye Giles has been no bad, we'll keep him on." If it was that simple this wouldn't be an issue and he'd be signed up for another season. Here is a Craig Brown quote from the Sun earlier on in the week. Tom Hateley and Giles Coke have also still to agree new deals and the Fir Park gaffer insists he must be allowed to add to his threadbare squad. He revealed: "I would like another defender, another midfielder and another striker. "It all depends on whether Tom and Giles sign on and if we get John and Lukas back from Everton. This indicates he has been offered a deal and is still weighing it up. It doesn't give the impression that the club are holding all the aces.

We can't really hold him to gunpoint to extend his deal.

Love the home top, not sure about the away though.

+1 The amount of over reaction from folk on this forum is unbelieveable, you'd think we'd never been through a close season before.

100% correct.

Would be delighted if this was true!

Well. I'm more interested in hearing about players who are wanting to play for Motherwell to be honest!

A trip to Ayr is always a good wee day out looking so forward to that one. Brechin & Forfar will also be a good couple of trips
