I find it great that a guy signed basically so we can play 11 v 11 at training was so mentally on it that when he got the chance of 'achieving' something he was ready and went through that last 50-50 like his life depended on it. VN maybe a shite professional but hat-tip to his professionalism! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Am I the sort of sad-sack who dips into other club forums now and again? Yes. Did I get a giggle from this? Also yes. I mean, what's weird about it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapowzer Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 I thought Christian Ilic was double figures but a quick search says 8. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double figures over the course of a season felt like enough of a contribution IMO. Oh aye, sorry I've misunderstood things. Good good, let's add The Greek to the list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, it helps when you're an establishment club who can finish bottom of the league and still not be relegated.

dezz Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 56 minutes ago, CoF said: It's also some helpful perspective on my own footballing abilities. When that player shows up at 7s who "used to play junior", they're always fucking solid and stand out an absolute mile. Translate that to me vs even a lower league semi-pro and the gulf will be absolutely laughable. It's easy to forget that even the guys that didn't make it at the level of Motherwell are still, relative to yer average guy kicking a ball about at powerleague, very good footballers. Aye, it’s frightening the difference between your power league jobber and even a semi-pro/part time player. A few years ago I played a weekly game of 11’s through here in Edinburgh and occasionally during breaks in the season ‘friend of The Terrace’ Danny Denholm would come along and play. There were a few decent players in that game but even him in half arsed off-season mode (and playing at CB) was miles and miles ahead of anyone else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGhee openly admitted he'd never seen him play before signing him on loan, he never saw a single minute. tell you what, I've rarely seen a boy strike a ball cleaner in the warm-up than big semih. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Your Pies Only Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Daniel Sengewald can only have played 6 or 7 games for us in 2002 but I'm pretty sure he had nearly as many cards as games, including getting sent off in his last appearance. A weird Bosman signing even by early 2000s standards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one m in Motherwell Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 There seemed to be a raft of these guys during the Eric Black/Billy Davies/Butcher eras.

rowsdower Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Okoli played quite a few games in my recollection, and had a particularly long throw in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home to Queen's Park and East Fife. Away to QOS and Elgin. This will be the 4th time in 6 appearances in the Group Stages we've played QOS and 3rd time we've played Queen's Park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
