If only we could sign a 'Goal Machine' type.........

Am absolutely FUCKING GUTTED not to be there tonight, being stuck in Halalifax, West Yorkshire with work. Most excited I've felt about this game since '91 All you lucky fuckers that are there, ROAR THEM ON !! 'Mon The 'Well

Absolutely agree matey, but that team also had Rab Shannon and Rab McKinnon in it. Two guys who could go forward well, but crucially, defend too. The 'three at the back' line up didn't have any wide defensive players in it. Don't think we have the players to play that formation I'm afraid (although it would be my preferred way if we did).

Thought we gave a bloody good account of ourselves there. They're not anything to fear I don't think. That said, they get forward more incisively than we do, but most teams do, to be fair. We play the ball quite well on the ground, but sometimes it's just too slow and obvious. Two defensive errors (and a denied pen or two) cost us what would have been a well deserved draw. That said, the last minute away goal changes it completely !! WE CAN DO THIS !

Esteban Casagolda Collazo and Duncan McKinnon are now friends.

Want a United win (obviously) for the trip to europe, but have stuck £5 on Ross County to win and £2 on Ross County to win 2-1, so if we don't get to europe, I can get pissed. Job's a good 'un.

Remember listening to the radio on the way home from that game. Fergus McBunnet was getting interviewed and he said 'Motherwell got a cheap goal' in that stupid half glasgow/half canadian accent of his. The occupants of the car all shouted 'Get it right up you McCann' in unison while we were sitting in a queue of unhappy tims. Happy days !!

And me too MJ :-)

Can only echo what was said above. The best Motherwell team I have ever seen. How much of that was down to Wullie McLean, i don't know, but the signing of guys like Vic davidson (struggled to make an impact at Celtic) were inspired. Vic D waltzed round people like they werent there. Bobby Graham/Willie P....what a strikeforce. McVie & Stevens ? Don't mess with them. Joe Wark.....real legend. On the subject of Peter Miller.......I was only a wean and we got gubbed 4-0 by Killie in an Anglo Scottish Cup tie. I was in the enclosure mith my da' and some big killie thug halfed Vic Davidson in two with a tackle. Peter Miller was on the bench and had to be held down by the entire dugout. He was screaming...'you're fuckin dead ya c**t', 'ahm gonnie fucking kill you'. My old man was covering my ears and Wullie Mclean had to try and calm him down. Needless to say, he never got on that night. :-)

I did a gig with Gary a couple of years ago and he was using my mics, PA system etc. He had a go at taking the piss. Part way through his act, he accidentally stood on my mic reverb pedal, so started echoing like fuck. When I told him to press the pedal again, to switch it off, he stepped on the harmony pedal, turning it on too. he sounded like three echoing daleks talking. When I jumped onto the stage to switch them off, he said 'There you go folks, his act is all based around electronic pedals, he canny really play anything'. I said, "press the one in the middle big man. It might fuckin' say something funny". Not the funniest comedian I've ever seen. Hope he's no readin' this though, he's a big cnut and he'd kick fcuk out of me

I always thought he was a reasonable player, but I reckon he became more of a 'legend' when he was out injured and rose tinted specs made everyone think he was better than we thought. Especially when the Malpish season was going so badly and everyone needed something to look forward to. Things will be better when Corrigan is back Having said that, he stuck with us through the bad times and 'Well stuck with him through his bad times. All in all, a reasonable player.

A bit raw, but a good solid central defender, partnered by the rather uncompromising Wullie McVie Add players like Wullie Watson, Peter Miller and Stu McLaren and nobody fucked wi' the 'Well. Oh Aye, forgot to add, delivered Gregor Stevens' papers when he lived in Garrowhill

JHC on a bike............thought that was real too !! HOTD for this pish !

No fuckin' way.....ya pair o' wierdos. The chips should never touch the pie on the plate. Only in the gub ! And any c**t who cuts a pie in half needs a right good baw-kickin' !!

Mutly might prefer the peado chants now to being called 'Mark McGhee, Aberdeen Manager' :-)

Probably more to do with the fact that you look fuckin' scary :-)

Me and ma da had E69 & 70 in the Main Stand from 1976 to about 2004/5. Right behind the home dug out. In fact, nice and close to abuse the manager. More than once, Mr Ginger McBaws told me to shut the fuck up when I was giving him managerial advice :-) He did eventually take it though, and fucked off

And to think I got rewarded with a 'hied in hands' smiley and a load of crap sarcasm about how everyone in Norn Iron loves him when I suggested that before the game. Gannon may have got some stuff wrong, but he wasn't wrong about Craigan. Might still be good with a dominant central defender next to him, but as the dominatrix he's not good enough.

Don't tell me Flow is playing............... That's worse than having McGarry in the squad !

Ha. Cheers. Might sign the boy Reynolds for Stockport next week right enough, but you can keep the Past-It-Paddy

Aye, but Norn Iron probably have fewer players to choose from than we do

Is Craigan/Reynolds really our best defensive set up ? I know it's been done to death, but I don't think Craigan is secure enough and doesn't attack the ball enough in the box. Might benefit from a sweeper behind him, but I really think his days are over. Looks to me like Craigan may have picked that team

For fuxache ref, get the full time whistle blown

Back in the 'olden days' when I were a boy, we signed a guy called Mike Larnach who had scored a million goals for Clydebank, went down south but didn't make it, then came back north to us. He'd played a good few games without scoring then gets his forst goal for the club, from a cross, but he hit it in with his arse or his thigh or something. Cue the usual goal celebration, and the old geezer behind me says to his pal "Och, that was an awfy bad goal that boay just scored". Nothing I've heard at Fir Park since has ever surprised me PS - Mike Larnach ended up back at Clydebank again and basically bagged another couple of million goals for them. For some reason, he couldn't score in the proverbial with a 'Well strip on.

Might be Gardner mate. I seem to remember he played very little that season and left us for pastures worse :-) He was the Fitzy of his era, in that he was the one the fans blamed everything on. Looking back at them days when you had guys like Peter Miller, Stewart McLaren, Willie McVie and Gregor Stevens in your team, nae cnut f*cked wi' the 'Well :-)
