What I don't understand is why they would do this when the HJK fines were made public just days before. I'm assuming that these people can read.

Simple answer is they don't care about the consequences for the club.  I am just so fed up with it i have even lost the enthusiasm to tell jokes..........every cloud 🤪🤪

I think the HJK incident was a bit unfortunate, people can lose it when a goal goes in, it wasn’t like they deliberately broke the advertising board. 

I wasn't far from the guys who invaded the pitch in Helsinki, and as soon as the penalty was awarded they were all getting ready to run onto the park if it went in. It wasn't as if it was spontaneous.

I mean the pictures I have seen it wouldnt be that hard to identify them however the club refuse to take a hard line with them for some reason.

Either do something about it or just fritter away money time and time.

They released a statement and it didn't work so sadly its iron fist time and grow a set of balls.

The club can and should take action to identify those responsible for causing the problems at FP.

However it’s much more difficult to do this for away games. The only way to do this would be for the club to handle the ticket sales for all away games and record details of everyone who buys a ticket. On the down side this would create an extra admin burden on the club and it would need the cooperation of the away club not to sell tickets outwith this.

Im not in favour of a blanket ban on any group of supporters.

No one fan should suffer because of the action of others.

However, that works 2 ways. We cant be far off from UEFA starting to intervene with our ticket allocations for away European nights. That would be galling for most.

As soon as I saw the flares last night, my heart sank as the club will be forced to act in a way that can only harm the current feelgood factor within the club.

Time for those responsible to take some responsibility.

At the Helsinki game at FP , I was close to block e( the area not the fans) although there were probably some block e ( fans , not the area) in there.

Anyway there was a guy there with the megaphone thing and he spent the game facing away from pitch...my point is not everyone is that interested in the game , its the vibe/ atmosphere/ chance to be a star

I doubt he is bothered by an appeal from club, maybe some of his posse could put pressure on him?

It's all well and good but when it crosses into costing us money.

They can whistle the next time the buckets/emails come out for their next self indulgent TIFO.

Didn't realise Sol was back at the club 🤣🤣

I think it's pretty simple.

If you are costing the club more money in fines than you bring in individually then the club has every right to jettison you.

The club (and every Scottish club since it's far from a Motherwell specific issue) needs to clamp down on fan behaviour now.  

For a start any fan that goes on to the pitch should be insta-banned.  

Today's SFA announcement on Rangers and Celtic is a step in the right direction.

Fans on the pitch. Stadium closure.  Flares, stadium closure.  

The softly, softly approach just hasn't worked.  

It's well known in general society that 50% of all crime is committed by 10% of all criminals.  Likewise all these supporter related problems are being committed by a very small number of people.  

If you nip this problem in the bud it'll soon be gone.  You don't deal with it you simply embolden the small minority that are already creating issues.

A ha, took me a minute lol

[grizzlyg]

My final point on this as I am just sickened by it,  the flare display was final straw and proves they don't care about the club.  Folk must know who let the flares off. Certainly wouldn't expect them to grass them in but maybe just say to them.....stay away
