Bollocks to that. We simply don't know who will still be with us when the new season kicks off. I remember all the talk of how many players we'd lose after the cup final, and it amounted to Sutton. Besides, you have no idea who we'll be bringing in over the next year or two. If Hughes is willing to sign until January or the end of the season for reasonable money, then fair enough. I'm still of the opinion though that we could be doing with using whatever money we have to strengthen other areas of the team.

Everything I've said there will go right out the window at 12:01pm tomorrow!

Am I the only one who's going into this game tomorrow not even looking at where either Celtic or Rangers are in the league? My eye is on St Johnstone & Hearts at present, and us having a seven point lead over our closest non-Old Firm rival is what really counts. I'm assuming that Celtic & Rangers will finish 1st & 2nd rgeardless, and that we really should be looking at cementing a European place over the next few months. Even a loss tomorrow will not be catastrophic. We'll still have a minimum four point lead over St Johnstone, and they have to visit Ibrox next weekend, whilst Hearts visit Tannadice, so our closest non-old firm rivals will be dropping points over the next few weeks as well.

No offence Jim, but I'm completely disregarding your "insider knowledge" until something concrete comes of it. As far as I'm concerned, Randolph is a Motherwell player and we're looking to cement a European spot this season. That's all I'm thinking about. Oh, and the small matter of us beating Celtic and getting Lennon his jotters tomorrow.

Absolutely deserving of this award. Well done to McCall & the team.

Yeah, I was hoping to get along to it.

Hey, it certainly come across that way! I'm sure that I'm mistaken though.

Just to be clear here, you're not calling Higdon a passenger, are you?

I'd try to encourage those that sit around me in the middle of the east to get up and make some noise, but unless it's to yell at Higdon or give McCall pelters from bringing off Murphy I doubt they'll respond too much.

Perhaps we just need to accept the fact that the average number of punters we get is the support these days? I mean, the number of fans who stay away because the tickets are £20 rather than £15 has to be pretty negligible surely? I don't think the home fans will number any more than they usually do.

It's been fine for me since I subscribed. I just click on the video I want, it asks me to sign in, then I'm good to go.

According to MFCTV Hammell could be fit for the game on Sunday, as the injury isn't quite as bad as was first thought.

Kilmarnock proved that Celtic are right there for the taking if you go at them. We should go out there with the intention of winning the game, not the same way we have in more recent games against the Old Firm.

Does anyone know if there are plans to put up the full 90 minutes of games a few days after they are played?

Just because you don't find it offensive doesn't mean others won't. There's no place for it on a Motherwell forum. Leave that shite to the bigot brothers. Back on topic, a point from this game would be considered a success for us, wouldn't it? I guess it's a sign of how far they've dropped when it's also being considered a good result by their fans as well!

There's no need for that. Keep it civil in future please.

I don't think that's the main problem at all. It's more to do with the figures they have announcing and presenting. Surely they can find better talent than that? The commentators are cringeowrthy to say the least as well.

I gave up watching Sportscene ages ago due to the poor set-up. I now watch our highlights on the BBC website, and catch the rest of the games on ESPN's 15 minute show, which features all football and no studio guests.

Ah, I see. No, I was implying that this was the phrase the media would most likely use. They'll be even more surprised than most of us as it appears half of them don't even know we're fucking second in the table by the way they go on.

Daley hasn't been given nearly enough time to show us what he can do in my opinion.

I never said I had foreseen the start to the season we've had, did I?

I'm sure that's part of the plan. It's early days yet.

Any updates on this situation lads?

Does anyone know if you need to pay manually every month? Or is it taken from your Paypal automatically?

I fully expect us to come away with at least a point in this game, maybe three if we're on our game. I'll be incredibly disappointed if we get humped as usual.
