Are you having a Midlife Crisis Al?

"Mark is still managing Motherwell in Scotland and it's impossible for him to break his contract or be part of anything happening at Celtic/Aberdeen right now. Unless 1. due compensation is paid - 2. the mythical clause is activated - 3. Mark McGhee resigns" Biggest thing for me is that our club play their first competitive match in 26 days time and we seem to be held hostage to other clubs brinkmanship

Maybe if the board had done to the pitch what we were told had been done to the pitch over the past couple of seasons then this wouldn't be coming back to bite us on the ar5e.

I could have done that post word for word!! Get the tin hat on MB, the HCC are massing as I type.

Card count is no longer an issue

Pre-season started early this year

42

Who needs the Fair Play League anyway? http://football.uk.reuters.com/spl/tables.php

to pay for what amounts to us as a jumped up friendly match. In the end its Falkirk who are cutting their income stream by charging that entrance fee.

Nancy was an OK trip, Now Dortmund.....that was the biz!!!

Cannot really see why any non season ticket would have the incentive in throwing away £18 to watch what are for Motherwell glorified friendlies. The price is too high at the best of times. If I want to see 22 amateurs booting high balls up and down a ploughed field then I would go along to King George V on a Saturday, no hang on, am doing KGV a disservice there, its in a far better nick than FP. FWIW I will be there because Im a ST holder, if I wasnt I would be seriously questioning my attendance .

All three diddy six games on 23rd May kick off at 12.30

Yes, based on yesterday they could relegate us

Mixu is right saying all the pressure is on Motherwell, it is at the moment, and come half two on Saturday if the day has gone pear shaped already then all that pressure will have taken its toll. However, if we have beaten St Mirren then all that aforementioned pressure will be winging its way eastwards to fester for 24 hours. Here's hoping

So that is where the Nancy webcam ended up

Any statto out there got a list of our Setanta matches thus far ?

Anyone who reckons that it was not a penalty to United should note that there is a sale on in Optical Express, rumour has it you can trade in you old Claret and Amber tinted shades

You should have come up with that one in 1991. Ps this is Motherwell we are talking about.

You must be some height !!

Pitch is going to be in great nick for that game

Did you make that line up yourself?

If my memory serves me right the official crowd was given at 26 thousand odd, and people at the time said that the 'real' crowd that day was nudging 30 thousand. St Mirren brought a huge support that day, it wouldnt be far off the mark to say that the crowd that day was split 50/50, it was by far the biggest away support (outwith the old firm before live TV) that I can remember in FP. Younger folk on here might scorn at such a thought but it did happen. I know cos I was there, as a chap famous around the time of the match once said.
