Definitely disappointing, I think Erwin will be back as a better player than he was with us and will do well at Killie. To quote him, he's a "class above" what we have up front apart from Moult.

It's to do with the wrestler!! Only in the west of Scotland can it be spinned into a 'whit school did you go to' ?nonsense argument!! As for the picture supplied? That looks like Glen Michael? That must've been taken during his spat with palladin on cavalcade!!

He's a poor mans Joe Carson..... I jest, McManus is a decent fit for us, watched a hell of a lot worse than him in my time.

We should drug test him when he arrives back. If he has been taking all that shit it'll still show up in his system. I'm pretty sure in regular employment it's potentially a dismissal. I'd think as he's supposedly an athlete he should be sacked to set an example.......... and also get him off our payroll, it's a cruel game Jacob mate, see you!!

Or in our case a busted urinal with pish all over the place!!

I hate pre-season friendlies......I rarely go to them. I remember going to one at Stirling Albion before and witnessing John Hendry's first ever game for us..........he was utterly dire that game and look how he turned out???......utterly dire!! Using this example maybe I should pay more weight to friendlies!!

I'm not convinced? He's wearing a shell suit, these were out circa 1987-91, also (i think?) reebok football trainers (out around 91-93) That boys looks like a young teenager.......Tommy Boyd....as he was called then, was a first team regular even as early as '87!!! I don't think its him.... I think its a troubling picture of a random child in a toilet!! Does your source have a PVG??

Weird picture?? what is he doing? Is he in a toilet?

I heard that as well from another source, health and safety issues...Murrayfield was mentioned!!

Absolutely delighted with them at Fir Park first day!! Brilliant!! Ideal opportunity to pump a team of Columbian and Mexican misfits before they get a foot hold in the Scottish game......get into them!!

Paul Slane was one of the best youngsters i've ever seen at Motherwell. Such a waste that he was blessed with a brain of a Toad. If he had any sort of pride in himself or half decent attitude he could have had a very good career in the game.....cest la vie, he's not the first and certainly wont be the last to do the same!! With regards Thomas, I know someone who supports QOTS who had said he was excellent last year?? contrary to what has been said on this forum? It would be nice to see him come back with a bit more strength and a final product but I for one am not sure he will. Time will tell, would love to be proved wrong!!

£300k with a sell on.........thanks Ben, cheers for your efforts......bye!!

Go as far as saying I HATE the away kit, ugly!! Really like the home kit tho!!

I'd like to see us get someone like Paul Dixon at left back, solid defender, decent going forward. I watched Dundee Utd a few times last year and he was one of the few glimmers of hope they had. He's out of contract and i doubt money would be an issue. A Goalie would be first on the priority list tho.

Hopefully Bowman will be on the conveyor belt of failure out the door now Fisher has arrived. Anytime I seen the guy he impressed me last year, hopefully we can get something out him. All the best Big Eck!!..... Oh no, we used to have another Big Eck

Love wee Lionel, cracking wee guy and a very talented player on his day........also has a cracking punch on him, just ask Moshni. hope he stays but I think he's offski.

As much as I think Robinson was a cheap option appointment, I don't think he's had time to be judged properly, I don't believe he was given enough time at Oldham either, although he did buy Josh Law which should trigger alarm bells on his judgement. If we stay up I think he should be given time next season to see who he gets rid of and who he picks up......unless there's any footgolf videos at pre season then he should be sacked immediately!!

We deserve to go down. Worst home record in the league, a defence who are the worst i've seen in C&A and a team with zero confidence looking more defeated week after week. Absolutely no chance we will beat Accies next week...team of losers with no fight. Utterly depressing........looking like we'll be visiting a few new grounds next year with a shot at the Petrofac.

I'm pretty sure Paul Kinnaird had a chronic gambling problem which was one of the reasons he was punted from Dundee Utd. He had tapped so many of his teammates for money that they spoke to McLean to have him shifted........and of course who would it be easier for Jim to deploy this excrement to.......yip, his unknowing wee brother!! I further believe Kinnaird continued to do the same at Fir Park and received an even worse fate by being sent to St Mirren. At St Mirren he teamed up with another gambling deadbeat in Frank Mcgarvey and I believe they both ended up with gangsters after them!! Wonderful tales of wasted talent.......don't you just love 'em!!

I'm guessing it's not joe mcbride from the 60s as he was one of the finest centre forwards the club ever had. I'd have a wild guess it is joe McLeod the guy means from the 90s. He was particularly shite!!

Have to agree, really difficult ball to deal with. Granted Samson didn't cover himself in glory there but Heneghan let Garner peel off him easily. For me your centre half should be at least able to move his feet better and get some form of head on it, even just to deflect it.

I had the opposite view to many on Saturday as I left Fir Park appalled by our performance and lack of urgency (apart from final 5 mins) The standard of play was shocking, ball in the air half the game, completely rudderless. Players looking disinterested, Pearson looked unfit as did MacDonald but it is clear he can still make a difference when he wants to. Defensively Samson is a poor goalkeeper, Jules is a bombscare and Ferguson (who is better than what he gave us on Saturday) looked lost. His basic timing to clear a challenge free header for the 2nd goal was awful. Louis Moult had some type of tantrum with Robinson in the 2nd half which troubled me, Robinson just shaking his head at him….dont know what was going on there? Moult is playing like someone who’s been tapped up….hopefully this is not the case. The guy Bowman is not a footballer, he looks like he should be working at a chippy. Cadden I thought did well in the first half and totally faded 2nd half….unfit. Only performance which pleased and surprised me was Frear, he worked hard and caused them some problems. I watched the highlights and I thought they made the game look ok, but I just didn’t enjoy the match at all!! Very poor and we are depending on ICT and Accies being worse than us until the end of the season otherwise I’ll be watching Motherwell in the lower leagues for the first time since the mid 80s!! As for St Johnstone, they are a well organised, horrible team to watch!! Sorry for the negativity I just really struggled to see any sign of hope on that park and a lot of the positive comments are baffling,…plus the £29 to get in to watch that was poorly spent!!

One thing about Hughes is that he does seem to hold a genuine affection for Motherwell. No idea why but I've heard him on many occasions on the Radio and TV bigging the club/fans and area up!! I think he is grasping on to the tough working man ethic the town and area had many years ago prior to it being swamped by Junkie/dole-ite/ workshy scroungers. Still don't want him tho - or Robinson - or Valikari or Craigan or Pressley......it must be the first time I have absolutely no excitement or enthusiasm for a new manager. Bring back Davie Hay.

Kenny Shiels? Purely for comedy value!!

This screams relegation.
