Benson Posted Wednesday at 09:14 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 09:14 PM After the away game when the attention seeking lads were out in force and pushing the look at us,fuxx the team we're the main attraction, letting of a flare,fighting stewards and amongst ourselves, punching a ball about with no interest in game wasn't surprised when I heard they booed the team and embarrassing shouts of get it up the fuxxing park makes me think sk should have stayed We have players that still have to settle not just in a new club but new country,new digs, teammates, etc,etc,new management, new tactical approach,getting up to speed, fitness and we have wankers spouting out,early doors but from what I've seen we have a manger that's conducted himself very well with media and imo knows his football, little bits I've seen fill me with optimism,more ball players,more attacking systems,wing play,we all know the big weakness is defence,he'll know that, let's get behind him, personally I think we've found a gem in Jen,time will tell. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not the kind that can run the channels. Defo a player there, seen that at Easter road last season.....his highlight real from Aus showed loads of headed goals, JBA also acknowledged he needs service, the fact we are signing wingers says to me we will play in a way that will suit AP sooner rather than later and he will score a good few I reckon 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly calm to be honest, still the same issues to get people upset, our defence and lack of goal threat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted Friday at 06:52 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 06:52 PM A lot will depend, as Spiderpig says, on how we defend and how exciting / effective we are in the final third. Crack those 2 issues and the fans won't be a problem. If our games are characterised by endless back and sideways passing, a sterile attack and losing cheap goals, many will be unhappy. We must remember though that Peterhead were defensive in the extreme and struck a bit of good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted Friday at 07:37 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 07:37 PM I'm enjoying trying to change things. I suspect JBA will have a ball playing CB lined up when he gets funding. I'll enjoy folk losing the heid in mid August too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but I don't get why anyone would enjoy that? I know its very idealistic and not attainable in the real world, but surely we want a united support. I'm not saying that some of our support don't deserve criticism at times but I can't say I'd ever actually enjoy that. Maybe just me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll enjoy watching grown men get upset at the football, you don't have to "get" it to be fair. There were boos ringing out when Matty Connelly beat a Peterhead player on the 6 yard line with the ball at his feet. Boos! I laughed like fuck at that, I enjoyed it. Two mugs were punching each other over the goalie at the Clyde game. I laughed when I found out what it was about. I enjoyed the thought that two blokes can get so wound up they decided to fight like 15 year old boys. Come mid August, if we get when we get caught out, cos we will, and I see people purple in the face, I will laugh. Sure, I may change my mind, later in the season. Meh, we'll see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won’t be unique to us but we have never had a united support certainly not in my time supporting the club. There are guys in the East Stand that spend half the game trying to pick a fight with anyone who expresses an opinion that they disagree with and it inevitably descends into the usual “support yer team or fuck off tae Ibrox” replied to with “Ave paid ma money a’ll say whit a like” and such like. The Main Stand centre section is pretty bad for that kind of thing too. And of course it is reflected on here and other social media forums.

I've never thought the East to be that bad tbh although of course there's always a few folk that spoil it for others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted 19 hours ago Report Share Posted 19 hours ago I used to stand in the East when it was terracing, and it was full of people who complained from kick-off to final whistle every week, regardless of the performance or result. I'm not sure if it has improved in recent years, or if it's just spread out more now that the fans occupy the entire stand rather than just half.

Motherwell fans have often been divided, the fans who would support the team in League 2 or non league and still cheer them on, and others who think we should be top 3-4 every year and doing well in cups all the time When we were in Administration in 2002 most were all united in their support for the team regardless of the circumstances . 2002-2005 was a good era to follow our club because of this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course it is reflected on here and other social media forums. I've sat there for years and never witnessed any trouble between our own fans. Not saying we all agree 100% but it's all kept respectable and largely good natured. Most "internal" trouble or division is online I'd say and entirely avoidable. Some unfortunate / unsavoury incidents do occur occasionally in the stands though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted 11 hours ago Report Share Posted 11 hours ago Motherwell are no better or worse than any other support. Every team has their "Happy Clappers" and their "Right Miserable Bastards" and all the rest that fall somewhere in between. I just think because we have quite a small support, the extremes are more visible than most..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
