  1. Anyone got an idea if this is a 1 or 2 year kit? Debating spending a fortune on 2 kids strips now ( I will if I know its for 2 years) or waiting til the sale at the start of next year.

    I think Motherwell have been good to the guy. Testimonial, Testimonial dinner and as far as i'm aware an open ticket to any match he wants, he's also been part of the ex players club also. I think the club does their best with all the ex players. Clearly the drink, depression and noise from the flute bands he loves so much have knackered his brain. Its a shame but if he's rambling like a madman about getting jobs etc the club should distance themselves from him, maybe that's what's happened and maybe that's why he's bitter.
  3. I'm alarmed he thinks our facilities are exceptional!! Clearly he's never set foot in any of the main stands bogs!!
  4. And it went unfulfilled due to injuries, not anything else, he's always had an excellent attitude and has been disciplined even with the injuries, look at some of the players who've spent months out injured and came back a stone heavier, Mcfaddens never been like that. I don't think Andy Ritchie was ever injured in his life but his attitude stunk, that's why he maintained his 17stone weight throughout his career!! I think he's worth a punt, he's only just turned 32, I don't think we got Cooper until that age and what a difference he made.....I remember plenty of 'Well fans saying Cooper was done when he signed for us.....As long as he's not breaking the bank wages wise, you just never know!!
  5. I think he's watched the play off game and thinks our crowd must be the norm!! Pretty sure Wrexham is a bigger place than Motherwell and their average attendance is between 4-7k. sounds a bit familiar.
  6. Hard to believe any person who is not mentally incapacitated attending a lodge in the 21st century, however, regardless of the sash top I doubt after the demolishing of SEVCO we'll get many "h**s without bus fare" comments this year after our destruction and ridicule of the rancid ones last month!!
  7. Stanley Matthews phoned you Lionel, he wants his shorts back!!
  8. Home and Away socks the same? Quids in!!
  9. One of the worst keepers I've ever seen at Motherwell, he's the only goalie I've ever saw who when on a one to one with a striker, he made himself smaller. He picks up the bronze medal behind John Gardiner and Lee Hollis. Really hope we get a decent keeper signed up soon, Long done enough for me in those play offs to show he has something!!
  10. I recall Andy Roddie performing like Ronaldo that day as well, skinning full backs and firing in good crosses!! Finest 30 minutes of his career!! I also was sick with Sunstroke for a couple of days afterward, those were the days when my moobs were not fully formed and taps aff was acceptable!!
  11. We have a positive manager for a change, one who's not a total shitebag when it comes to cup games or having a go at teams!! Very confident of sitting comfortably in the top 6 this year and a good Scottish cup run.....not arsed about the league cup!!
  12. Excellent news, On his game he's one of the best players in the league, just hope Bara gets the best out him!! Happy with the Chalmers signing as well, I was speaking to someone in the know at Celtic and he was annoyed they let him go, thought he had a big future there. McDonald, Long, Laing and Lyle Taylor next please
  13. Sadly yes, but I still consider that recent history, it doesn't feel that long ago for me!! The 2 teams in the 50s just trip off the tongue for me, my dad did a serious amount of Motherwell brainwashing back in the day!! don't even get me started on the Ancell Babes
  14. League cup final team - Johnstone, Kilmarnock, Shaw, McLeod, Paton, Redpath, Watters, Forrest, Kelly , Watson Aitkenhead Scottish Cup Team - Johnstone, Kilmarnock, Shaw, Cox, Paton, Redpath, Sloan, Humphries, Kelly, Watson Aitkenhead Unbelievably I know this off heart, my old father made me rhyme these teams off as a 6 year old in the 1970s..... Talk about a screwed up childhood!!
  15. I thought it would be a resounding naw!! ha if he can stay fit for a season good luck to him, even if it does mean ripping our defence apart, with whoever it is that takes a punt on him!!
  16. McFadden anybody? I just think he's only 32, i know he'll have at least 1 good season left in him if he can avoid injury and complete a pre-season! (i understand he's not done a full pre-season in 4 years) OK, he was injured last year for a period but i think that was partly down to lack of fitness, but was coming on to a game at the tail end of the season and looking fit until his contract expired!! I'm convinced he's still got it in him, played in the right position (not where Mcall played him) i think he'd do us a right turn!! also.........he wants to play for us!!
  17. Dissapointed to lose big Erwin as i think he's a talent and i think he's come on a tonne under Baraclough, however £500k is not to be sniffed at, on the bonus side for us, he does have Barry Hughes as his agent, therefore we would have been shafted at some point anyway!! Cue him movin to a few clubs over the next 5 years or so lining the pockets of Mr Hughes!! Also with what looks like Jamie Murphy moving to either Bristol or Brighton that'll be another £150k coming to us, we might have a bit of dosh to play with during the close season!!

    Security Today

    I thought the whole shambolic package of incidents made it a real day to remember, if the club get fined, i'd happily stick a few quid in to help out!! From the petty h**s leaving at the first goal chucking on their pathetic flare / the flag in the coupon incident (as stated on the sevco website "the assailant is still at large" ) the full 30 minutes of goading before the final whistle / the Moshni incident....hysterical /...fans invading the park and taunting the zombie nation.../ big Erwins interview/....Lasley singing!! Even now the happiness is still too much to take in!!
  19. I hate the sash strip, the word sash just annoys me!! all that's missing is a pair of white gloves and a bowler hat. Traditional full hoop, its the only way!! Or a pair of hooped shorts like Scotlands 86 world cup strip..........or maybe not!!
  20. My dad was talking to Ainsworth's missus a couple of weeks ago and she said she was really worried as Lionel's contract was up and nothing had been discussed as yet about a new deal. She was clued up about the fact the result of the play offs were going to determine whether we would keep him on or not. Main thing is she said was she loves it here and is desperate to stay!! pretty positive he'll stay put.
  21. Vigurs is a talented football player, anyone who cant see that hasn't a clue!! However, It doesn,t matter how much ability you have as a player, if you have no heart or fight on the field you are a wasted jersey. Vigurs falls into the heartless category which is a shame as he's wasting a real talent!!
  22. I'm more optimistic for the forthcoming season than I've been in years. I think Baraclough has something to offer. His backroom staff he's employed look excellent. I doubt very much football golf is on the agenda at pre-season and I doubt we'll see any overweight players at any of the pre-season friendlies!!
  23. Rancid Bile!! It was like watching Rats go down a stagnant drain!! May their club die again soon!!
  24. I'll have a couple of boiled eggs and toast tomorrow mate.....cheers!!
