  1. Probably like a few on the road out at Ibrox, has a few extra curricular issues to worry about. Perhaps the days of Van Lingen stalking players has returned?
  2. Might be an inspired appointment. Pearson coming back to Leeds should see stability of sorts at boardroom level.
  3. The EPL is a 2 horse race and will be, unless something drastic happens to City and Chelsea, for the foreseeable future. No team has a chance of winning it except those two such is the vast and unmatched investment by the respective owners of these Clubs. The franchise era of football is well and truly here and while admirable, the old fashioned beliefs of Liverpool, Everton, Arsenal etc... will see them only fall further behind. The SPFL is only worth what someone will pay for it, the BBC don't have to pay anymore for it than they currently do and nor would I expect them to if there is no competition for the rights or standard of package. We could be a relatively attractive league to market if only we had people in charge that knew how to do what they are paid handsomely to do.
  4. I drive an Audi A3 Sportback S line TDi for work and it's a terrific car, ultra reliable, relatively cheap to run with all the toys you need in a car. I drive 30 - 50k a year for work and the Audi has turned out to be one of the best cars yet. I'd steer clear of BMW if I'm honest as my experiences with them leads me to conclude that they are overpriced shite.
  5. I'm suprised he's pulled out given he swithered with entering in the first place. There was hardly much point in even playing Chadry now, unless the match took more out him he thought it would. At least it gives him a decent recent before Roland Garros, where hopefully he can push for another slam as he been imperious so far in the clay court season.
  6. Erwin being chased by Celtic, Leeds and Sheff Weds apparently. There were lots of scouts in the stand at the Killie game, I assume they were up to watch Erwin, maybe a couple of the younger Killie players?
  7. I find it extraordinary that a youngster, mainly unproven, has the temerity to string any Country along with regards to who he may play with. The line of "he'll take a year out" is the biggest load of shite I've ever heard. The boy could have a decent football career infront of him, then again he may not develop the way some want him to. He isn't going to be the next Zidane or Messi.
  8. In the cold light of day it's a shite deal, but unfortunately better than the non existent we currently enjoy.
  9. Our home form is actually half decent recently. A winnable home match on Friday followed by a winnable away match in Paisley where we always seem to get a result when we need one would put it all onto the final home game against Partick, who we should be looking for revenge against after our abject performance at Firhill a few weeks ago. A Partick side with nothing to play for and us having to throw the kitchen sink at them would hopefully be a good thing for Motherwell(He says shaking his head )
  10. My cousin is Captain(soon to be major) in the NZ Army and did a tour of Afghanistan and basically said the same thing. The base was catering for Yanks so it was wall to wall fast food for 7 months. He finished his tour as fit as he had been in years, came over to Scotland to visit us and ran the Paris marathon for something to do.
  11. Antwerp gets my vote as well.
  12. VERY!! Big Softie had a driving school in Stirling did he not? Shaun Teale has a few pubs in the Midlands I think. Willie Kinniburgh is a Polis. Gerry Britton is a lawyer.
  13. Some player in his day with his comb over mullet. Easily the best of the 3 Charlton brothers...
  14. The Rangers fans are Huns to supporters of every other side in Scotland, it's roots are not even remotely sectarian. It was coined after yet another incident in the Dead Sea scroll sized list of Rangers fans misbehaving in another City.
  15. I don't think we struggle to create as such. If the finishing had been better we should have had 4 or 5 on Friday, but we squandered easy chance after easy chance where as Accies were clinical with theirs. There won't be a single Motherwell fan who will disagree with you about our defence. For the second match in a row a team has specifically targetted Straker(and to a lesser extent Law) and has won the match. It doesn't matter what you do as long as diddies like him are playing.
  16. Glenn Hoddle was adept with both feet. Zico and Bobby Charlton. Baggio, Maldini, Toni Kroos, Zlatan, Zambrotta, Lahn, Kaka.
  17. Exactly. The SPFL know they need a strong Motherwell and will happily move the goalposts to make sure we are always in the Top League...
  18. Would love to see Juve win it. If Napoli or Fiorentina win the EL that would be great big F.U from Serie A to the BPL.
  19. Looks like another big away support from Motherwell tonigh. The 1600+ at Partick will be eclipsed comfortably according to the ticket office.
