David Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago So, the European football we fought so hard for last season has finally arrived. We're maybe not in the best shape for the game, but surely we still have enough about us to sneak through? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago Yes, I think so. Get a win at home, then see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm OK if we even just keep it close at home, because I think we'll be much improved for the 2nd leg. Depending on the exact fitness of some of our squad, I think we should be good.

Spiderpig Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago Right in their faces from the first whistle, move the ball quickly and press high when not in possesion, and try to get the tie done at Fir Park, its knockout football no time for cautious play and holding back.

We need to be aggressively trying to win this by a fair margin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parko66 Posted 7 hours ago Report Share Posted 7 hours ago Anyone know if this game (and the second leg) will be available to watch anywhere for those unable to attend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago I think the fans are going to play a huge part as we need to get right behind the lads. Should be a great crowd but no idea how ww will line up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellsince75 Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago We are massive favourites at 1/7 to win 8/1 draw 20/1 for them to win. Given they are 16 games in to their season I thought that was a bit of a leveller but the bookies odds gave me the injection of positivity that I needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
star sail Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago After Stjarnan and Sligo in particular, I will never take us to be strong favourites in a Euro tie ever again. I think because they are match fit and because we have a fairly makeshift starting 11 at the moment this is a 50/50 game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted 3 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Is this game available for overseas viewers? I have family in Canada asking. They usually watch games via the MotherwellTV subscription. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Are we opening up the South Stand or just limiting our fans to the other 3 stands? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They usually watch games via the MotherwellTV subscription. It's being broadcast by SolidSport apparently. Not familiar with which countries they operate in, or if that means it might also be on MotherwellTV, but it might help locate a stream. https://solidsport.com/motherwellfc/games/g/b3deb2au EDIT: I just created an account on there, and it says I can purchase the game for 12 quid. But no hint to any geo-restrictions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfc Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago It's all about getting through so hopefully we have enough over the two legs and we can then be in much better shape in terms of fitness and signings for the next round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelvinBragg Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Given Maswanhise and Longelo are being mentioned as possibly being available for this game but can be nowhere near fit and with other injuries and departures, it's conceivable we could start Thursday's game with only two of last season's first eleven in Said and Fadinger. Although they were in the squad, Priestman, Sparrow and Charles-Cook weren't first picks. Given that and a new manager, this will be more difficult than it might have been. So much so that I think taking any lead to the Faroes would be a fantastic result... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Due to injuries and lack of signings, this tie will be harder than it would otherwise have been. HB are also mid season but have had a few weeks break. However, its possible, maybe even probable, that they'll be without 2 of their better players due to visa problems. After all is said and done however, the Faroese league is a very small pond, albeit they are a large fish in it. I can't see us floundering on Thursday and can see a 2 or 3 goal win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I was confident enough to be able to plaice a sizeable bet on us being able to seal our progression after the first leg. But I cant be the only sole harbouring doubts. Hopefully our new keeper can catch a few. Cod only knows how we will get on in the away leg if he cant keep it out the net! Hopefully, it goes ok as Im sure our recruitment team are continuing to trawl other leagues for new players! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
