Ya Bezzer!

Numbers up? The problem is no one wants to come apart from the hardcore fans. We were effectively letting people in for free a couple of weeks ago and we got a crowd that barely crept over 4,000. Season ticket and gate receipts make up more than 40% of our income, slashing season ticket prices means halving our working budget. Fans need to be realistic about price cuts, it means less money invested in the team. So do you want a cheaper season ticket and a poorer squad with no real chance of making the Top 6/Europe and risk relegation or do you want to pay the current rate and more than stay away from the bottom of the league. I've not been able to afford a season ticket this season and probably next season as well so I'd love for prices to come down but being realistic about it but unless there is a huge drop off in season ticket sales then it probably wouldn't be worth it over all for the club.

Don't know about season books but Brondby charge about 130 Kr. for a average Super League match which is roughly £15, so not really that different. Big matches against FC Kobenhavn are double the standard price.

On top of Sky money the Premiership clubs also make huge amounts from selling TV rights outside of the UK and the money is split evenly between all the teams (Man Utd get the same amount as Wigan for example). Each club can expect £23 million a year just from that revenue stream. Sky pays about the same meaning each Premiership club is guaranteed more or less £50 million from television each season. Season ticket money is almost irrelevant in the great scheme of things especially for smaller to medium sized clubs in the premiership, who don't have 50,000 - 60,000 season tickets to sell.

He didn't leave for Dundee, he was on loan at us and then his contract expired. Also Griffiths and Harkins didn't get promoted either so would you say no to them? There a loads of examples of us picking up good players from lowly circumstances and poor sides. I really hope you are being irreverent.

I think it's harsh to blame him for anything other than the 2nd goal which he should have done better at. OK, he was off his line at the first but not many players could have made that chip over him. What exactly he was supposed to do for the third and fourth goals, I'm not sure. There is too much finger pointing these days as if perfection is the very least expected.

Yeah but he has a 100 players to pick from.

Funny how he was a folk hero when he was here but as soon as he's at another club he's 'over rated'! Anyway I wasn't one of these excitable types that thought he was the best thing since sliced bread but surely based on his performances at Fir Park he'd make a decent addition to the squad, if not an automatic pick. He would be good cover for Lasley/Jennings and might suit some types of games.

Jim McAlister is 'definately' leaving Morton under freedom of contract. Was it last season he ripped Hibs a new arsehole in the League Cup? Might be worth a flutter. James Wesolowski and Mickael Antoine-Curier are both finishing up on loan deals at Hamilton - I think both would be welcome additions to our 1st team squad. Also at Accies Tomas Cerny has only one year left on his deal which means he could be approached in the January window on a pre contract. I think he's an excellent goal keeper one of the best in the league. I'd love to see Craig Bryson at Motherwell. He doesn't score the goals like Dorman does but I think he is overall the best midfielder in the bottom three.

What about Alan Combe? Good goalkeeper but not getting a game at Kilmarnock. They will probably want him off the wage bill if they get relegated. Has some previous with the 'Well support though and he's had injury problems in recent times. Might be a bit of a risk but since Ruddy is going and most of the support don't seem to rate Fraser...

There is a lot of land at Leven Street but I think they might be putting houses up there. The old Traction House had a planning application for houses a couple of years ago but obviously nothing has happened since then probably due to the recession.

Aye, Boyle get the prices back up, for fuck sake!

WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME!!!!!! PS - Bring on Wednesday.

Exactly! At least we are going into the last home game with something to cheer. Looking forward to it and fingers crossed...

Yeah, I heard he was one of the highest paid players in the division, although I heard he was on even more than 15K.

Me too. Not as bad as radio but still get sick with nerves, I'm gonna listen to the Falkirk game on the radio.

Celtic defence of Braaftheid, O'Dea and Thompson? Come on 'Well - if you cannae score against that....

Is say, Chris Humphrey, a much better player than Darren Smith? Not having a go at Chris Humphrey but I would have liked to have seen Smith get at least a chance this season but I reckon he's fallen foul of Broon's well established habit of working with a small group of players and sticking with them. Some one said he will probably only get a part time gig but I disagree, I think he can go down to the first division and get a club. He's quite a physically strong player with a big frame, has great pace, works his socks off and has a decent scoring record considering the limited opportunities he had so I think he can easily go to first division level and prosper. Good luck to the guy.

Not really anything to do with JOB doing anything solely. More that combination's involving O'Brien have worked considerably better than combination's without him.

If Kaka or Messi had scored the goal at St. Johnstone it would be all over You Tube as 'Greatest Goal Ever'.

Looked like a nasty injury for Given. Luke Daniels got 2 matches and Artur Krysiak got 1 but Nielsen didn't get a run out.

An exaggeration but O'Brien is an important player for us. We all saw what happened when Ross McCormack left and wasn't replaced like for like. Our record his season when O'Brien didn't start the match is Won 2 Drawn 3 Lost 4. Our goal average when O'Brien hasn't been on the field is 0.88 goals per game. Our goal average over the season is 1.22 goals per game. We lose more matches and score less goals when O'Brien doesn't play.

If Dundee Utd beat Celtic tomorrow it would be Celtic on 69 points and Dundee Utd on 65 points. If Motherwell then won against Celtic in the next fixture and Dundee Utd also won it would be down to 69/68 with a Celtic v Rangers match then coming up and Dundee Utd at home to Hibs. Now bearing in mind that we are virtually guaranteed to finish 5th now and that we won't qualify for Europe by finishing 5th if Dundee Utd finish 2nd (I believe that's the case!) should we then 'not try too hard' against Celtic to make it harder for Dundee Utd to finish second? Having done that we could try for 4th place by beating Hibs at Fir Park but having eliminated a possible scenario were we wouldn't qualify for Europe by finishing 5th. I can guess this wouldn't be popular with an element of our support but depending on results it might be the 'sensible' thing to do.

I make it that if we get a point at Celtic and Hearts didn't win we would be guaranteed 5th but we don't want that because Hearts are playing Hibs and we'd rather Hearts won to damage Hibs!

Would have taken a draw before the match and Hearts had won four out of their last five at Tynecastle (only losing to Rangers) so that is a great result. Looking very good for a guaranteed fifth spot, a win against Hibs would do that and maybe go a long way to getting a fourth spot. Hopefully Rangers can give Hibs a drubbing tomorrow and do some damage to their goal difference.

Why am I more nervous 2-0 up than I was 1-0 up! That's Motherwell for you, logic goes out the window!
