  1. Your opinion. Personally I thought he contributed the square root of heehaw today. Got further and further away from Higdon the longer the game went on. I don't think he's much better than McHugh..
  2. If Humphrey doesn't start next week then McCall needs to explain why. Two sub appearances, two assists. The old chestnut about his decision-making and final ball is looking outdated..
  3. Only three who got passages for me were Randolph, Clancy and Humphrey. Humphrey probably the pick in that he actually caused Aberdeen problems.. Higdon (penalty miss aside) was better than Ojaama. Don't expect to see that reflected in most opinions though..
  4. I said a few weeks ago, he would be judged on his impact when teams were aware of his threat and against better teams. He's been found wanting. I hope he proves me wrong..
  5. Am I the only one who thinks Ojaama is vastly overrated?
  6. Indeed. I'll not start celebrating/planning until we're home and dry...
  7. I don't have a match abandoned voucher but I have special voucher H in my season ticket. I don't need to redeem it for a match ticket, do I?
  8. While I agree that some overstate Lasley's abilities, I don't think it's possible to overstate his importance to our team in terms of the way we play. Both he and Jennings are excellent as a base for others to play from. Their presence allows Hammell and Hateley scope to get forward. There are midfielders in the SPL with more ability than both but few with the same awareness of and commitment to their job for the team. We'll notice how much he contributes while he's suspended. In terms of Lasley's ability, he's our Dado Prso. Not outstanding at any part of his role but good at all aspects...
  9. Apparently the reason Cerny was released was a shoulder injury that has kept him out/will keep him out for a while. Don't know if he's expected to be fit by the summer, but if he were he wouldn't be a bad shout should we sell Randolph..
  10. Any opinions on who in the U19s looks best equipped to make the step up?

    You're right about Facebook. But I wouldn't worry about voting for Ojamma. Like voting for the Labour candidate in Cleland, even if you don't cast your vote, you can be fairly sure your man will win..

    While I like the look of him, let's not get carried away here. He's scored against Queens Park, Dunfermline, St Johnstone and Morton. St Johnstone are the only decent side in there and they have Peter Enckelman in goals. The real test is coming up as other SPL sides become more aware of his threat. As for him making up for the departure of Murphy, we need to replace Murphy if he leaves in the summer for the reason I stated above. If other sides move to nullify Ojamma's threat then we need to have other players in the side to take advantage of the extra space this should create. As I said, I like the look of him as a player but let's not build him up too much just yet...
  13. Somerset Park, please. Proper old school shithole of a football stadium..
  14. Don't expect us to sign anyone even on loan today unless we get an offer we can't refuse for someone. The interesting thing for Motherwell fans should be the list of players released today. A few times we've picked up free agents after the window has closed.. I'm a bit surprised that we haven't maybe looked at bringing in a midfielder on loan with the outcome of Jennings court case still unknown..
  15. Wouldn't surprise me as Watford are looking like selling a defender today. Would be looking for a decent fee though..
  16. Like Malky, I'd have him back in an instant. But given the rules, looks impossible right now. Maybe in the summer? Certainly reckon he could partner either Ojamma or Higdon and it would work.. If we got offered anywhere north of £300k for Murphy from Blackpool we'd be mental to turn it down. Mind you, given what they did with Adam I'd be tempted by £250k and a percentage of a future fee. Reckon he'd do well somewhere that he wasn't burdened with expectations. Also might not get marked as tightly at first..
  17. I'm a housewife. Number 14 for ne..

    Regards the support today, my own personal highlight was the "Keith" chant after the third goal. Spontaneous support for a guy who gives 100% every game..
  19. Personally I'm waiting for the "Should Higdon get back into the team?" thread...
  20. I love Keith Lasley. That is all...
  21. That's the most I've enjoyed a game in a while. Sending off probably made the game. Meant everyone had to roll the sleeves up. Good substitutions, good decisions by players when we had the ball and real display of character from everyone in claret and amber. Referee was shocking but I think the sense of everything going against us seemed to fire up both supporters and the players. I said in the pub before the game that I wanted to be entertained, simply to enjoy the game and for it to be memorable. It ticked all the boxes. In short, one of those nights that makes it all worthwhile. Just magic...
  22. I think I may have posted previously in Other Football on Riordan, certainly know I've voiced my opinion in the pub and at Fir Park. In short, he's poison. LIke a cancer at any cliub he's at. He's been the main reason so many Hibs managers have been sacked, any manager wanting to sign him would have to be off their head. So you could say that's a "No" from me..
