Favourite Game Of The Season

Mine would be the 8-1 humping of Flamaturi. I know they were a pub team, but what I loved was that it was all the young lads who made that victory all the sweeter. We hadn't really seen Hutchy, Forbes, Slane or McHugh on the big stage yet and I felt this game showed we have some real talent on the books.

 

Also it was a cracking day and most of the goals were magic!

 

Close second would be the 1-1 draw with Rangers. Felt thats probably the best we have played all season. Just didn't have luck or an unbaised ref on our side that day.

ditto on the Flamaturi game

 

But the Llanelli away game was also right up there

My favourite game and prob best atmosphere was the first game of the season at St Johnstone, also had the perfect view for Forbes' goal, which I think was goal of the season.

 

2nd - I really enjoyed our game just there at Tynecastle.

 

Joint 3rd 3-0 at both Killie and Aberdeen.

 

There is no comparision between home games and away games, away games are far superior!!

 

I know a lot of you mentioned the Rangers game, but I have never left a game more dissappointed for a long long time so although the performance was good, everything else totally ruined it, especially that goal being chopped off, the first Rangers game was equally disspointing when Job missed the penalty late on!! Hopefully revenge will be sweet at Ibrox!!!

3rd - St Johnstone Away - 2-1. Sutton's last minute goal. Pretty much sealed top six.

 

2nd - Kilmarnock Away - 3-0. Played some great football the game before at Tynecastle and it was the battle of the two new boss's. We pumped them.

 

1st - Hearts Away - 2-0. Brilliant performance, brilliant result. Big step towards europe for the third season in a row!

Probably the home Steaua tie for me. Was my first game of the season and after my enthusiasm starting to wane at the end of last season the thought of going along to see a new team practically full of under 20's and with the exciting times of a new manager really grabbed my interest again.

 

We really caused them some problems in the first 60 mins and if a another of our many chances had crept in or if we'd been given 1 of our 2 penalty shouts, I think we really would have had them on the ropes for the remainder of the game.

Obviously the 8-1 win over Flamurtari is going to be everyone's favourite because of the margin of victory. For me however it was the style of our play, the quality of our goals and the sheer pleasure of seeing a very young Motherwell team totally dismantle the opposition with such flair, verve and panache.

 

Both home performances against the Gers were excellent too, plus the wins at Killie and the Jambos.

Hopefully next Wednesday when we clinch Europe in front of a bumper home crowd. I would love it if we get something against Celtic and Hibs lose to Hearts meaning it will be be all or end all for the both of us.

 

Other than that, 8-1 against Flamurtari, mainly because just the way we went about our business - a little upset we didn't get the Scottish Record win in Europe but Europa League's single tie will do for now.

My favourite game was probably the Steaua home tie, despite the result. The Flamurtari game was a brilliant experience and was almost unreal by the time the 8th went in but it was the home game against Steaua that really had me going the most. We controlled the game for 60 minutes against a much better team and had them absolutely bricking themselves. The sheer anticipation and tension in the stadium as we waited for that second goal was simply unbeatable.

 

Even after we lost, there was a feeling of such pride in the players for going out there and giving their all in a game that, but for a bid of bad luck and quality finishing, could have been our night.

The 3-0 away to killie. Not because it was within walkin distance within ma bit, no no way, but managed to get a ride that night too so that was my favorite. I'm back for the hibs game so watch oot motherwell burds, got this down as ma favorite before it kicks off!
remember yer toothbrush :lol:

aberdeen 3-0. great result and day out. a 14 hour shot featuring 4 trains, 3 buses, 3 carry outs, 4 pubs, a restraunt and one get it right up ye to mark mcghee. plus the craigie brown song got started.

 

hearts 3-0. probably the best performance of the season and atmosphere as well, we should get some corrugated iron to bang in the east stand. ended up a bit too steaming and spent far too much money in the western bar but it was a classic away day.

 

rangers 0-0. a brilliant performance. we totally outclassed the h**s in every department, it was just a shame we couldn't take our chances. i would have bet everything i owned on o'brien not scoring that pen.

 

the trips to llanelli, bucharest and aberdeen the first time were amazing as well but the games were a bit of a let down. winning after 70 days without a win down at killie was great as well, as was the pumping of hearts a month or so ago.
