Motherwell - Aberdeen 16/03/2024
RostokMcSpoons replied to well fan for life's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Yeah it's every bloody game, I've complained a couple of times before. All will be forgiven if the sound/tech guy is ritually disemboweled and his testicles set on fire during the half time entertainments sorts it out for the next match and the Well scrape a win. -
Motherwell - Aberdeen 16/03/2024

FFS Motherwell. I was too busy typing to say how annoying the knocking sounds on the MFC TV comms mic are, so I missed the goal actually going in (small mercies etc)... but that whole passage of play could've been avoided if Bevis had cleared the ball properly when he was under no pressure. Bugger. -
Rangers v Motherwell: Sat 3pm

Glad to say I didn't (but I did consider it), so £110 richer off a fiver bet (I wasn't the one who red-dotted you btw) -
Motherwell FC - A Thread For All Seasons
RostokMcSpoons replied to Casagolda's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Yeah, the stats about him being great in the air must've taken a big boost today, he won countless headers. SODs had a cracking game too, he even showed a bit of pace a couple of times -

I don't think it quite matches the majesty of the situation - we really need a gif of Natalie munching on a pomegranate whilst riding a unicorn -
Rangers v Motherwell: Sat 3pm

Feck me, that was some game The statue-makers in Motherwell are rubbing their hands in glee, we'll have to have the whole team done, plus Ketts of course Is an open-top bus tour out of the question -

The bookies are certainly agreeing with you. I drunkenly stuck a fiver on the Well last night, at the somewhat ludicrous odds of 22/1 I'm being offered a cash-out at the rather uninspiring amount of £15 profit. -

Gent off for SOD? Really Ketts, you do work in very mysterious ways edit: Ok, looks like he's injured, fair enough. -

When you're lying in bed tonight, struggling to get to sleep, just repeat these words to yourself "Aberdeen scored 3 but we got a draw" If we all repeat it often enough, it might block out the bad stuff.... Might. -

That was the only pleasant surprise we've had since the 26th minute -

I would, but I'm not feeling very confident we can keep it down to 4 though! Some turnaround already. Shows the difference the right (or very wrong) formation makes. -

RostokMcSpoons replied to Casagolda's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Agree with that 1000%. There's definitely a likeable, skillful player in Harry Paton, but right now he's hidden by a player who does good things to get to the crucial moment, and then always fecks it up big style. I remain infuriated with him. I'd have started the substitutions with him way ahead of Gent etc Edit: I'd agree Gent didn't have a great game either, but that was unusual. Paton was playing to his usual form. In fact I wouldn't have started him -

I think that's being very wise after the event, we're were all thinking Miller would be our quality young player of the future, and Halliday would be the solid backup. Now you're wanting Halliday ahead of Miller ? I dunno. I'd like to see more of Vale and Nicholson, but I'm not immediately convinced they're a gigantic improvement on what started on the pitch. Hope to be proven wrong about that. -

Nah, we're partly in this state because we've spent money getting rid of managers, can't afford to do it again. Unless Taylor Swift writes us a cheque. But, to be honest, looking at the recent managerial appointments, who would we really want above Ketts? His heart is in the right place at least. He's still "got the dressing room" as far as we can tell. And we can afford him. -

Feck it. I was just getting back to feeling comfortable as a Well fan, and they have to chuck in a performance like that. Perhaps the players were tired. Perhaps Morton were just more up for it. Whatever, it sucks to go back to being scunnered. Is there any other decent sport on tonight to take my mind off that? -
Congrats Morton, you did all the right stuff to make us look very very ordinary
-
No, it really isn't.

"allegedly" He's not getting a run out ahead of Vale

I'd jump through hoops to be our sixth choice striker. Sadly won't happen. Can't jump at all let alone through a frickin' hoop at the moment (Knee) And I don't think I'd fit through the hoop (Fat) -
The General Ross County Chat Thread
RostokMcSpoons replied to yoda's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Assuming you're talking about Adams, can I wheel out a personal anecdote? I played a few of the Football Aid charity 'fans and players' matches where the positions got auctioned off for charity. All great fun and wonderful for the fans, a dream come true to meet some heroes and run out on the sacred turf. One year I got Adams as my team's manager. The length and breadth of his team talk was "drink plenty o' fluids" with a big sour-faced grimace of "why do I have to be here" on him. I wouldn't have tied up my laces if he'd told me they'd come undone. Not that he'd have bothered to tell me. (Terry Butcher btw was the absolute polar opposite, lovely bloke, totally enthusiastic, wanted his side to win. Made everyone's day a treat)
