Jennings to be suspended by the SFA?

I doubt we will be playing Rangers anytime soon...

If the weather is decent I think the crowd will be pretty good, maybe 11,000. I take it tickets will be available from the office up until kickoff?

As long as it isn't Gary Megson, the English Gus MacPherson.

Would fucking love that.

I reckon it is a straight fight between Stubbs and McCall for the job. Sutton was a bit of a loner off the park, I can't imagine him impressing greatly at an interview. Whoever gets the job, they need to be willing to uproot and bring their family up north with them imo.

If the likes of McPherson, Calderwood, Hughes or McGhee got the job I'd be devastated. While none of us know much about the coaching ability and tactical awareness of Stubbs, I'm far more excited about the prospect of a left-field appointment than the aforementioned names. Obviously Stubbs is a risk but we have scope to take a risk at the moment. From what we have seen of Stubbs as a player and personality over the years, he strikes me as someone who may well have the attributes to make it as a manager. In years gone by, similar threads on here have seen folk rule out the the likes of Lambert and Coyle due to their lack of experience and unknown ability. Look at the pair of them now.

I imagine Jennings will pursue a legal case. Listening to the Blue Square fella on Radio Scotland last night left me in little doubt that this is a complete non-story. Ridculous that this has been leaked to the media.

I wish no harm to Yogi Hughes but he is not the man for the job. Stuart McCall I loved as a player, worth an interview but I don't see it going any further. If Collins was genuinely interested he would be brilliant but as I've said before, he doesn't have the stomach for a gig in the SPL. Derek Adams remains my preference.

Watching the bookie expert on SSN this afternoon, he was talking as if the bets were specific to Jennings getting sent off. I had previously understood it to be a Motherwell player to be sent off? What's the script?

Pass marks for Hateley, Hammell & Murphy. Gow is one that will always split opinion but I'd rather watch a boy with a bit of technique and vision every week than someone that runs their balls off to limited effect. Lasley without doubt motm. Should by captain imo.

Scottish fitba has been dying for years. With regards Motherwell, my life revolved around Motherwell for over 15 years. Sadly though, my interest in the last few years has diminished albeit there have been a few occasions such as Nancy to get my back in the mood. No matter how hard I try however I can't sustain an interest over the course of a season. Society has changed, most of my pals and work colleagues don't bother following their teams anymore and it has inevitably rubbed off on me. What keeps me interested to an extent is that I like to keep a close eye on developing talent and Scotland prospects. Ironically at a time when the quality of football is so poor we actually have some really good quality at our disposal. It saddens me to say in but the sooner the likes of Templeton & Murphy follows the route of Dorrans & co, the better.

1-2 flattered us last night. To be honest I didn't expect a great deal given our recent lay-off and opposition. Solid performances from the 2 fullbacks. Lasley & Murphy carried the fight. Gow on a different level. Randolph was less assured than usual, Humphrey & Blackman looked out of sorts. Reynolds and Craigan in particular were terrible. Meanwhile, Jennings sending off pretty much summed up his night. By and large, he has been poor this season. Fair enjoyed watching Templeton, he could be something a wee bit special. Hearts a stickon for a top 3 finish.

Spot on.

Is there a text version kicking about? Unable to watch videos.

Adams can walk away for next to nowt. Would imagine Stark is in a similar boat.

I'm struggling to look beyond Adams and Stark at the moment. Two managers that ensure football is played in the right way and thrive on developing youngsters.

I agree. BBC old pals act.

Lond diagonal ball up to Foran on the left wing. No fucking thankyou. Terry done a great job at holding the club together during it's darkest time and building a siege mentality. I was taken aback by his affection for Motherwell given his stature in the game. As many have said however , his time has came and gone. He is doing a great job at Inverness and long may it continue.

Who was reporting it on the BBC? I refuse to believe they would be top of the list.

I'm pretty sure Dempster will be on the case regarding Blackman. I have little doubt however that Broon will have already spoke to Allardyce about taking Blackman to Aberdeen. He's a wise auld fox that leaves absolutely nothing to chance.

Maybe I'm a bit sick in the head but I love days like today.

St Mirren were the club in question, we have far more ambition and a much bigger budget than them.

I think the contract situation suited all parties. Broon always wanted the door left open for a move while Boyle always seen this as a short term appointment. Boyle knows what he is doing here.

Famliar names I imagine us to be pursuing: Adams (he is free to leave Hibs should such an opporunity arise) Stark Leitch McCart To be honest, I'm not sure Boyle was ever entirely convinced by Brown and I wouldn't be surprised if he has a very firm idea of who he wants. Talk of John Collins is just nonsense. He couldn't stomach running his boyhood heros as he can't be fucked with the SPL. Would love to see him involved in Scotland but he is not going to come to Motherwell FFS.
