Exactly. The game against St Johnstone next week is far more important than this one today in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I don't want a win today, but a win next week is extremely important. If we perform as we know we can the final game against United could be nothing more than a formality.

I can't say I have. My only thoughts today are what I'm going to buy using my special voucher K from my season ticket in the club shop

I see no real reason why it would happen if I'm being honest. Surely the reward of winning the league will be being presented with the trophy at their own stadium in front of their own fans?

Don't be ridiculous! If a company sell a membership to something, and promise certain benefits with that membership in an attempt to drive sales you can't get upset if you choose, or are unable to purchase a membership that you don't get to take advantage of those benefits. I'll end up purchasing a Steel level membership to the well society as it's pretty much all I can afford at present, but i'm not going to start complaining when I don't get the benefits promised to the 1886 level membership. It has nothing to do with royalty, and everything to do with the club rightfully rewarding those people who invest in the club at the start of every season. Put simply, if you want the benefits that come along with being a season ticket holder, buy a season ticket!

I'm astounded that there's anyone who can argue against the club giving incentives for people to pay up front and buy a season ticket! It's basic marketing 101 for fucks sake! You can't expect to get the same discounts and incentives that come along with a season ticket if you don't actually buy one!

Taking anything from our game with Celtic tomorrow will be a bonus, but the truth is if we take somewhere in the region of seven points from our games against Hearts, United & the saints then we'll be fine for third place and the Champions League. With two of the three games being at home it is really all in our own hands.

Aside from a cup game, I usually go into a game against the Old Firm assuming we'll get nothing from it. All I expect is a hardworking performance from the players. Anything else is a bonus really. My main concern this week is the result of todays game between Dundee United & St Johnstone. I'll be hoping that a draw is the outcome there.

Exactly what I was thinking. McCall's comments in public may not be the same as what he says behind closed doors. Well, I'd certainly hope they aren't!

A defence like theirs is just asking to get hammered by Higdon and taken apart by Ojamaa.

After seeing Celtics defence at the weekend, this game coming up against them at Fir Park at the weekend is the ideal time for the big man to make his mark and cement his place as a "not too bad" striker!

Nice one. If you're ever looking for semi-decent photos of any displays just give me a shout.

I missed the start of the whole Dazzer/Humphrey love-in. How did it start? Why is he such a fan of the guy? Is he related to him perhaps?

I've just updated the original post with our post-split televised games. We're on quite a lot; Motherwell vs Celtic 22/04 Sky Sports Hearts vs Motherwell 01/05 Sky Sports Rangers vs Motherwell 05/05 Sky Sports

No, I know that's what you meant, but there are probably people on here who believe such a sign would be a good idea.

I'm sure the lads will put something together to champion our team rather than take shots at other teams.

I've just gotten around to seeing the highlights on MFCTV there. A decent performance as you mentioned.

Or Perhaps: Stuart McCall - Passion as well as dignity

Considering what our manager was pulled up about I think there should be more than a few ban offerings winging their way to the east end of Glasgow. I'll take a 1-1 draw in this game. I don't see us getting much, and would consider a draw a good result.

I understand that Killie were given recognition, we were the first team they played after winning the league cup. Why would Celtic even qualify for a round of applause at Fir Park?

It won't be that clever. The odds will be poor.

I actually think the guard of honour nonsense should be forgotten about. The league winners can celebrate in front of their own fans when they get the title at home.

If it's pre-arranged the players will do all the clapping anyway. In the grand scheme of things I don't think applause from 2,000 or 3,000 odd Motherwell fans will make much of a difference to their day. It will make us look like c*nts right enough, but there you go.

Again, what happens in England has nothing to do with how we feel or react to the matter. The English fans can do as they please.

I doubt I'd even arse around with cup games. If the other 11 clubs give Rangers the green light then I'm done with Scottish football at the top level altogether.

I'm not so sure it's a protest against the club, but more a protest against the actual league itself.
