FACT -He was training with the team today .

Gaffer seems to think the first game is in Denmark. "I like the prospect of the second game at home, you know what you have to do, if it goes to extra time and penalties you have the home advantage," Brown added. 'Well travel to Denmark for the first leg on 19 August with the return at Fir Park seven days later.

Decent tie with a chance to make the groups cant complain.

Have we no played Man city in the texaco or the anglo scottish cup .

No like you to be on the soft drinks mate.

The man has arrived he is in Scotland.

A Motherwell XI cruised past P.Thistle 3-0 in a bounce game today. All goals were scored by trialists believe it or not!

Supposed to be at tomorrow nights game so keep yer eyes peeled and cameras and mobile phones at the ready, who can get a photo of Motherwells very own Real radio renagade Estaban Casagolda.

Spot on brother Esteban, Hammerfist and Casagolda.

Typical day off work so i could go but the wife has the car .

Esteban is back on Wednesday he will be at the game on Thursday ,he will train with the team and be involved in a bounce game after that. What happens then ,who knows.

I was never Jim O'Briens biggest fan but I will admit that the O'Brien that left Motherwell was a better player than when he began. So with the right coaching and application players can and do get better. So its only fair to give Humphrey's a bit more time, and he will have to improve to convince a good percentage of our support that he deserves a starting place. Put it this way its often said by managers that they will only bring a player to the club if he is better than what they have, would you say that Humphrey's is any better than say Darren Smith.

Esteban himself ,this thread has got to be one of the best ever ,deep down inside I would like it to be true ,time will tell. No very nice calling Hammerfist a dirty scrotum Esteban. What flight you arriving on Wednesday Esteban one or two of us might come along and welcome you to Motherwell.

And there we were all thinking that he wasn't bothered about money he wanted to play for Motherwell because he liked us

I thought Bathgate were a decent side as well Finlay, they had a guy called Payne who I,m sure played with Aberdeen.

The game finished Motherwell 4 Bathgate 2 ,the Motherwell team was Hollis, Humphrey, Hutchison, Quinn ,Paige Fitzpatrick,Grant,Pollock,Innes,McHugh and Smith. I'm not 100% certain but i think the scorers were Fitzy, Pollock and a double from Smith. Motherwell should have been out of site in the first half but the Bathgate keeper had 3 great saves .We went 2 up then Bathgate pulled one back, we then made it 3-1 ,Bathgate got it back to 3-2 but we responded with a 4th . A decent game and no a bad turnout , Paul McGrillens father presented the trophy to Mark Fitzpatrick. And Bathgates Gary McCulloch was awarded with the motm .Sorry its no a very good report but I'm no blessed wi Flows writing skills. Should also mention that Meechan, McKinnon and a young guy who I aint seen before came on as subs.

Lets no get to uptight guys, for my money it will be the under 19,s who will be playing today, as has been said we wont take any chances with the game on Thursday. We played a similar game last year and it was the under 19,s + Darren Smith who played that day. Paul McGrillen played for Bathgate in the game .

I dont know if its the under 19,s who will be on show or if like the game at Fauldhouse last week one or two familiar faces will be playing. Like you say Haggis hope there is a good turnout .

Disappointed to lose a late goal but got to be happy with 1-1 ,sets up the tie nicely for next week ,big home crowd to cheer on the team, nobody to blame but ourselves if we cant do it.

Have it on good authority that Casa will be at the game next Thursday to watch the team against Aalesund .Casa Casa geez a wave Casa geez a wave .
