Craig Brown was the reserve team coach I think. I don't remember Billy Campbell as an assistant manager but he stayed in the Knowetop area and used to drink at the Cricket Club in Dalziel Estate,. A nice guy and always happy to chat about the 'Well, I'm sorry to hear of his passing.

Interesting watching that, I noticed that Ward had the MFC script on his top and the outfield players had the club crest on theirs. Well, I found it interesting at least.
-
I do, I'd quite like St. Mirren to be relegated.
-
No great stand-outs, no great failures. Went with Just because he oozes class but I could make a case for four or five others.
-
Will 2 at home and 3 away not give us 19 home and away over the season? We have (will have) played: Rangers, Falkirk, Hibs, Kilmarnock, Aberdeen & Dundee Utd at home times two, (12 games) and, Dundee, Celtic, Hearts, Livingstone & St. Mirren once (5 games) = 17 home, 16 away.

McGinn, Welsh, Sparrow, Longelo, Just & Priestman all worthy of consideration. I went with McGinn, like a fine wine, he just gets better with age.
-
You only have one right back in there, time for Stephen O'Donnell to force his way back into Clarke's thoughts.
-
Not sure whether to be happy or not tonight. We could, and arguably should, have taken three points, but to get the late equaliser with ten men almost feels like a win. We were not at our best today but still gave them an absolute lesson in football. As for McLean! I have watched the BBC highlights and have no complaint about the red card, but how the f*** did Soutar get away with that challenge on Just, and why the f*** did the BBC completely ignore it in the highlights.

The choice is between the goal by Welsh or the dummy by SO'D. I have to go with the goal just 'cos of the timing of it.
-
Hell yes!
-
I never think about that at all..... Except for every time somebody claims that "X" is the worst Motherwell goalie ever.
-
Hopefully they still play "Into the Valley" before kick off.

For anyone with a statistical leaning: Over the last 10 completed seasons, the maximum number of points achieved by the team that finished 4th was 67 (twice, 17-18 & 18-19); the minimum was 48 (21-22), and the average is 57.2. I hope you will all sleep better now. Given that Hibs and Falkirk are 5 & 7 pts behind respectively, I reckon 60 will be needed (but that is just a guess).
-
Priestman for me, but there were several others that would be hard to argue against, Just, Fadinger, Longello & McGinn were all outstanding. Said (AKA Captain Chaos) is an absolute pleasure to watch. McColm looked like he could slot right into our system, I'm looking forward to seeing more from him between now and May.

I think it depends what the straight red is for, e.g. a deliberate handball would apply in the next cup game, but if is for serious foul play it is the next game.
-
And Celtic. 😁
-
I went for Oscar, a very accomplished performance. Connolly, Maswanhise, Sparrow and S O'D, of the starters, deserve mention, Fadinger and Just were standouts when they appeared.
-
A win, another clean sheet, and that is the most disappointed I've felt leaving Fir Park this season. Funny old game, as someone once said. Still, we are in the hat for the next round so that is all that matters.

One of the most important people in the history of MFC. RIP Mr Chapman.
-
💩💩 Anyone else smell something???
-
They announced it as 800 odd I think, about 6,950 'Well fans which is quite astonishing but totally deserved given what we are witnessing on the park.
-
A very enjoyable and relatively stress free 90 minutes, I'm getting quite used to this. As enjoyable as Tuesday but in a different way. Man for man we were better right across the board, I can't think of a single one of their team I would want at F P. As for that referee, wow!!!!
-
I'm in full agreement with Orinoco, you could make a strong case for just about any of the starting XI, but Mr Just's work on and off the ball wins my vote.
-
That was the most comprehensive victory I've ever seen against them. I don't think I've enjoyed a game as much as that for years, some of the passing to play our way out of our box just left me shaking with laughter.
-
There should an option for JBA. I went with Elliot Watt in the end but you could make a case for Ward, O'Donnell, Just, Said or Slattery
