DuklaWandy Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Motherwell have to avoid a defeat by more than a goal at Ibrox, because The Rangers will make it a shitfest again in the second leg if they have a decent lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM5 Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 It does. We need it quite badly as it's a game which ignites interest. At the moment we are a fairly meh team for everyone and we tend to reciprocate those meh feelings. Us and A*r got a semi final crowd of over 30'000 between us and tend to attract the 7000ish crowd for more meaningless meetings with each other. (We really hate those dirty A*r b******s). Even at only a fiver a ticket for the biggest game in their entire history, the blue bigots left more than a fifth of their stadium empty. I'm not sure they are big enough yet to be allowed to play at the top table. You don't do irony well, do you? Slagging Rangers for getting 41,000+ supporters at a midweek game while boasting about Killie and Ayr getting 30K at a semi-final on a weekend for a fixture that very rarely would crop up :-) You're either an idiot or so blinded by your hatred that you can't contain yourself.

Im_Rodger Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Every manager that takes a team up to the Premiership (or SPL) has had to improve and or change his squad of players, there is a very good reason for this.What about Accies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardest ned in glasgow Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Sevco will pump Motherwell. Sadly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 As most 'well fans in this thread have pointed out it really depends whether we turn up and want to win or whether we just turn up and roll over. The only time we've played Sevco was with McCall in charge and by all accounts rolling over against Sevco was his thing, whilst his record against the Oldco team was laughable. That said if you go back to our most recent full season without McCall in charge (Gannon/Brown 2009/10) we drew 3 (2 home, 1 away) & lost 1 against Oldco. As an overview here's how our season actually panned out: League record under McCall: P W D L F A PTS 12 2 1 9 7 21 7 League record under Baraclough: P W D L F A PTS 22 7 4 11 27 38 25 Arguably the shocking run under Baraclough in December & January was very much a consequence of fixing the problems that McCall left behind when he walked. Our record since the transfer window shut & Bara brought in his own players and Black was sacked has been much improved, save the bottling of our 'must win' games against Thistle, Accies & Ross County after the split. P W D L F A PTS 15 5 4 6 23 18 19 We're unbeaten at home since February, the last home defeat was the 1-0 Dundee game that very much represented the nadir of that poor run. Since then we've scored 15 in 7 games at home. What is undeniable though is that our away form is shocking. In those 15 games since the end of the window we've only won 1 (vs. Killie) out of 6 away from home, which is why the game at Ibrox on Thursday is as important. Similarly, a major factor is whether we can get ourselves together to defend like something marginally above pub team level for 2 games. I'm not hugely confident that we can. ETA: Our last 5 home games (13 scored, 2 conceded); 20th March: 4-0 vs Accies 7th April: 5-0 vs St. Mirren 2nd May: 1-1 vs Ross County 8th May: 3-1 vs Kilmarnock 23rd May 0-0 vs Thistle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy H Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Did you know that only one team has ever been relegated from the SPL the following season after finishing 11th the previous season since season 1998-99. Dunfermline Ath 11th in 2004-05. So finishing 11th doesn't automatically mean that club will be relegation fodder the following season, they will want to improve as well by bringing in new players. If Motherwell stay up, I would doubt they will be struggling again like they did this season under McCall. Success for a team coming up first season is staying up and Motherwell despite finishing 11th were definitely not the 11th worst team on form after the January window though, not even close to. They are a strange team some days they play like the team that finished 2nd last season other times they look like the team struggling away in the play off place. Who knows which team will show up at Ibrox?. On the other side of it had McCoist and Kenny clipboard departed earlier and McCall came in, you probably would have been closer to Hearts and clear in 2nd place as well, going by the improvements he has brought in. Hit the nail firmly on the head. If we turn up we will stay up. If we put in a performance like we did against Hamilton three times this season then we are going to get our arses handed to us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desp Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Motherwell allocated 950 tickets for Ibrox. Rangers allocated 1500 tickets for Fir Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addie Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Motherwell allocated 950 tickets for Ibrox. Rangers allocated 1500 tickets for Fir Park. And unless you are a ST holder or member of the Well Society, you can't buy a ticket in the home end. Decent effort to restrict the orks from sitting next to me tbh. Might be some pies left at 1520 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
