Bring back the team that horsed Hibs in the League Cup at Easter Road and I'd fancy us against anyone.
Sadly, Nancy are miles ahead of our current crop.

Am I missing something with Clarky Gaag?
Massive game for us on Saturday! If we have any hope of chasing Europe we need 3 points on Saturday prior to our games with Hearts and Dundee United.
Inevitably Butcher, Malpas, Kerr and Foran will be right up for this one. For that reason alone, I'd like to see Lasley reinstated in the midfield. He never fully convinced Butcher and I'm sure he'll play out his skin. Furthermore, it was mentioned in another thread that we have been playing deeper with Klimpl guarding the defence. The mobility of Keith Lasley should hopefully get us further up the park.
Dilema for me is who partners Clarky up front. I'll leave that one to McGhee.
'Mon the 'Well.

<br /><br /><br /><br />Did well today and a point was fair result I thought despite what the stats say. Despite being someone when on the park you love to hate, I thought Brown's bit of skill which nearly led to a winner for Celtic was different class. Have to say he know looks head and shoulders(Nakamura apart ability wise) above any player currently on the books at Celtic Park. McGeady is just a Dutch wumin keeper aswell, overrated pish<br />Would agree with you mate. As much as Brown can get under your skin he is a terriffic footballer. Celtic would be in a right mess without him.
From a Scotland perspective, it's great to see him back on form this season.
-
Thinking back he probably deserves a bit of credit for keeping the game flowing.
He did give a fair few decisions the wrong way though. Mind you, what chance has he got when the likes of Skippy are continously trying to cheat. I've always been one of McDonald's biggest fans but he really got on my tits the day.

Absolutely loved it today.
This is what supporting Motherwell is all about.
Nobody in the team let us down today.

Plymouth or Southampton are what he'll be waiting for.

Biggest game of the season and we fucked up majorly.
Lets be honest, we should have been capable of sweeping St Mirren aside at Fir Park.
We have been mediocre at best this season.
-
Would love to see a reaction from the players and get a result but Celtic have been getting pelters recently as well and have had all week to think about the game.
I'd love to see an end to end goals galore game that maybe brings Scottis fitba back out the gutter but I expect a professional performance from Celtic where they will run out comfortable winners.
Wont be surprised if McGhee goes 451 and I dont think I'd be totally against the idea. Neverhteless, the Celtic defence is gash and I hope we get in about them.
'Mon the 'Well. Keep the season alive.
So the heart says 3-2 'Well.

Marc Fitzpatrick didn't 'cost us' anything last night. He played a hell of a lot better than Klimpl last night.
In a very bad all round team performance he was definitely not the worst.
He would slot in to most of the SPL teams and probably play better - because he wouldn't have 2000 would be soccer managers on his humph there.
He's played better than Lasley
Its the same old story - when things don't go our way we revert to the usual targets.
GET OFF THE GUY'S BACK
Klimpl seems to escape criticism. He wasn't rotten last night but IU didn't see anything great. him and Hughes are never going to be a midfield partnership. And while I dont agree with the principle of playing a defensive midfielder on the left against a team the calibre of St Mirren, I do think we would have taken it to Extra Time if we had kept Fitzpatrick on the pitch.
The midfield really is a conundrum as we have decent depth but McGhee is yet to work out what our best shape is. I think we miss something when Lasley isn't buzzing about but how we fit him in is another matter.
-
I like Fitzpatrick in the middle but do we really need a defensive left sided midfielder against St Mirrren?
Stick him on the left side of a midfield 3 and we'll get the best out of him.
-
He definately deserves to come on with 20/30 minutes to go in a game.
I also think McGhee made the mistake of playing him out on the wing too often. He is a striker.
-
Maybe rather than questioning the ability of our current players, there deserves to be a bit of scrutiny over our training methods and set-pieces in particular.
When it comes to free-kicks and corners we generally offer very little threat. Hammelll used to have a decent strike on him, now he seems content at 'lofting' the ball into the box when he is 25 yards from goal.
As for corners, there is rarely any pace on the ball. And why the fuck do we keep Craigan and Reynolds back? Very few clubs in world football must keep both there centre halves back at corners. Craigan and Reynolds used to pop up with a goal once in a while did they not!?

Lose on Sunday and the season is all but dead.
Then we can look forward to watching Motherwell focus their attentions on improving a very raw 'talent' from Parkhead at the expense of players dedicated to the club such as Sutton and Murphy.
I'd fucking love Sutton to score the winner on Sunday. Stick it right up McGhee.

We are shite without Chris Porter.
We happily took a few hundred grand over any sense of ambition. Last nigts inept performance was symbolic of such ambition.

Sent my sister to FP the now for a ticket.

Fuck it, I'm going to try and talk my auld man into it tonight.

Wellfan1984 you seem to enjoy adding smoke to the screen by putting things out there instead of just discussing events.
a) I've never heard/read anyone from our club discussing 5% charges aprt from 'yes we'll pay it'
b.)Motherwell never discussed reciprical pricing initiatives for Motherwell fans, they might have hoped for them but didn't make any deals, you and a few others keep going on about Celtic not reducing prices for us in return for us reducing them for them, WE NEVER DID REDUCE PRICES FOR THEM! only for Rangers and we have yet to play them in a return match so maybe they will reduce prices for us I wonder if anyone at the club has contacted them with a reminder that we gave their fans preferential treatment over all the other league clubs??
C.) The Motherwell fans you refer to that were unhappy with the price cuts , I would guess in large were not unhappy with 'price cuts' as you put it trying to spin that it was all about cheaper football. Most views that I have read and listened too, were unhappy that despite a supposed all signing all dancing pricing initiative, it was a cobbled together disaster of a plan, giving preferential pricing proposals to the Old Firm and completely overlooking much of the core Motherwell support!
Carry on with your continual petty digs at the 'Motherwell Faithful'
Absolutely spot on mate.
-
I'm in two minds about this.
Really wish it wasn't on the telly now.
We should be hyper about this game.
-
Think we will go with team suggested by Jay.
With Darren Smith and Sutton capable of coming on and making a real impact should it be needed.
4-2 'Well with a Clarky hat-trick. Happy Valentines Day...

Relegated for nae USH.

On the USH issue!
Should we be relegated?
We seem to have got away with things reasonably easy...

To be fair, I look forward to listening to the phone-in on the way home from work. Its a good laugh when Roughie is on form and they stir the emotions when a Scotland game beckons.
Without doubt he is a windup merchant but he'll get his comeuppance on the 4th of March.
Regarding the pitch, aye its a joke and Boyle deserves to be slaughtered for it. But I'd far rather be in our predicament than the debt-ridden jambo's.
