Bottom line is we can only just keep doing what we are doing and win. Can’t really rely on anyone to do us a turn.

If he picked up all the coins that were thrown at him, that would raise a few bob.😆
I think we’d have enough for a training facility as well

I'd wager £20-30M for a 12,000 seat stadium but I'm no expert.
I looked about small stadiums in Europe and I think around £20m is the cost. I’d hate a Lego style stadium like St Mirren or St Johnstone. If we did get a new stadium I’d like it to look a bit unique.
the stadium of Nijmegen is a 12000 seater and is the sort of style I’d like and the stadium of stade de la maladier in Switzerland is a belter, that’s a 12000 seater and was £20m to build.
id prefer to stay at fir park but unless we knock down the main stand and start again. I can’t see the stadium lasting another 10yrs or so as financially I think that main stand is a money pit for maintenance.

this game imo is up there with the most important of the season. It’s the game in hand we really need to win.
3 points will put us 1 behind the h#ns and potentially ahead of Celtic if they don’t win midweek. Even if they do beat Aberdeen it still keeps us really close.ive not bought a ticket yet but I will. We need a good support up there.
it’s only Sunday and I feel quite nervous about it….. I’m too old for this carry on -
I thought we made a wee but heavy weather of that but a 2-0 at home I’d take tha any day of the week. Agree we need to be better next week v Dundee. That will be a tough one.
-
I think Fadinger has to start regardless of how well Priestman has played. Fadinger is different class and has had a break and is fresh. I’d be shocked if he wasn’t straight back in.
What a great selection to have though. -
If we can get wins against both the Dundee teams we are 100% in the title race. Any less than 6 points I think the dream may be derailed

Open goal is worth the watch this week, Motherwell mentioned throughout but primarily from about the 1hr mark. Quite interesting stuff considering it’s hosted by Ferry and Slane. Good to hear Jamie Murphy’s thoughts as well and he even mentioned the legend that is Jim Gannon.

Getting the top 6 in February….. Not even any need for a Rickie Lamie last minute goal!!!
we are so boring…… but I’ll take it 🤣

I can in a way see why he’s being touted for Celtic. Traditionally they’ve always been a team who play decent football and are a bit better to watch than Rangers who were always a “win at all cost regardless of style” type of club but there’s something in my head thinking that he can do without that hassle.
He strikes me as a guy who wouldn’t put up with the toxic nonsense from their crowd which would then end up with him being a disliked figure.
I see him going to England. I could see him working wonders with a good club in the championship. I’d think his life would be 100 times better there than dealing with Joe Bigot on a daily basis up here.or he can just stay with us and do what that Auxere manager did for years. Refuse to move to bigger jobs and turn his side into a champions league team….. that’d be my preferred option 🤣

I'm biased, I knew Tomtom really well from working there, he was under extremely tight budgets, FP had been neglected/homered/patched with sellotape for years and required massive investment and running repairs, pennies mattered, the contracts of the players he 'fell out' with were based on 'we are cup winners' Tommy's answer was 'so?'
Would have been interesting to see what he would have done with Phil's transfer had he stayed.I remember Craig Patersons career was finished because he asked for £50 a week more. I don’t think Tommy played him again. I always remember thinking he didn’t deserve that.
ive no doubt there was penny pinching and tough budgets but he did manage to broker himself a good pay deal when he left us for hearts
Anyway, he’ll still go down… even with me… as a real legend of the club.

You say negative, we say pragmatic, didn't suffer fools and moved on from his mistakes PDQ
Does “we” mean “I” 😉
im not convinced he did move on from mistakes. We suffered years of negative performances and then we had a couple of really good seasons, mostly sparked by the genius of Cooper. He then tore apart a good cup winning team because he fell out with them and then buggered off to Hearts who he almost relegated. He also failed at Dundee Utd
I just think our views of him are clouded because of the cup win. But….. that day is still one of the best of my life so I still love the pig headed wee guy.

I was talking the other day about my memory of the last time Motherwell were in a genuine title challenge in Tommy McLean's last season and it all coming to an anticlimactic end with a loss to Dundee Utd at FP.
I would hate for history to repeat itself. I wonder if the pressure will start to mount a little for the players as a title challenge becomes a possibility?
Wee Tommy was probably the most negative managers we’ve ever had. Our manager now has the polar opposite approach to games.

There was a 2 minute var check in injury time that somehow ended with Rangers not getting a penalty.
The foul was outside the box as well, that referee will be on the lodge blacklist come Monday morning.

12 added minutes at Almondvale. I don't think my heart can take this. Exciting times
It was meant to be 9mins added right enough? Not that I doubt the integrity of the officials.
feel for Livi, 2-0 up and then they get the obligatory man sent off. Again, not that I doubt the integrity of the officials

Some results today. Think I’m having some type of cheese dream
i believe

Is it full time at Livingston yet?
Just blow the whistle here and at parkhead now please. 👍
who is the wee annoying guy in the rangers dug out…. He annoyed the life out me at first park, jumping about and screaming instructions. He might be the set piece coach, wee fat guy with an ear piece. An utter 5 card trick!!!!

Quite rightly so, I can’t stand that type of cheating and I’m not going to say different because he’s a Motherwell player- if anything it makes it worse.
I think it was a bad brush on his eyelash….. as a contact lens wearer I’m forever having problems with them and I’ve lost count of the times I’ve fell and rolled around on the ground in Merry Street after a little gust of wind hits my eyes. I’m just hoping he’s fit enough for next Saturday as eyelashes are a big problem in football today…. I don’t think it’s mentioned enough 🤥

Just now, Big Stall said:
You forgot the bit about celtic fans convinced the gaffer will be at Parkhead by the summer
That and “make the most of it, half your team won’t be there next season”
I’ll make the most of it just now thank you, take it game by game as big Jens says.
and I can’t think of a player we’ve ever had who is more likeable that Said….. the wee guy is immense

If we stay with the same side as last night we will win. In this game I don’t really want the old “6 changes to be team” post before the game.
Fadinger would be the only one I’d consider starting but that’d mean Priestman dropping out and the boy has been exceptional and doesn’t deserve dropped.
looking over social media this morning (I know I shouldn’t) it’s so mixed, it’s either we are all arrogant c@nts or we are the future of football. It’s so weird seeing us mentioned by so many other clubs and seeing their opinions. It’s weird but I do like it.
i just hope that the slattery thing blows over and doesn’t effect him. He’s been absolutely panned.

For a team that couldn't score and gave away soft goals at the start of the season, it's even more impressive.
12 clean sheets from our last 15 league games.
Some may say “title winning form” lol

We are sitting there with a GD of +27….. that is mindblowing. I don’t think we’ve ever been in this position in the premier league years.

How can you pick one player? Impossible task.

Utterly magnificent!! I’m gutted I decided not to take a trip through….. won’t be doing that again this season.
wonderful display….. I believe

I’ve run out of positives for this guy. He’s the only manager I have ever listened to, for the whole press conference. There’s always something in each response to a question I find interesting.
only negative out of that was it sounds like Koutroumbis will be out longer than I expected. I thought he was playing really well and is excellent cover at left and right back. He’ll be needed for the run in.
