Motherwell FC - A Thread For All Seasons


Recommended Posts

Unfortunately, the TV money seems to depend on it right now. Unless they also set up a diddy Glasgow cup where the gruesome twosome can play each other another twice.


I know but I am sick of it. If dropping down a league wouldn’t be as catastrophic financially I’d be all for a stint in the championship just to get some variety.

Just let the leave to a league of 2, 38 games a season against each other.

2011 Semi-Final against St Johnstone on YouTube tonight.

 

Jesus, St Johnstone were bad. Really drives home what a fantastic job Tommy Wright has done turning that clown car outfit around. 

Great manager, deserves a crack at a higher level imo.

One of the worst Saints game I've been to, a total non-event.

Last two Semis I remembered before that were against Celtic and Rangers while we were a First Division side. Celtic dived to win a penalty and beat us 2-1, then Rangers dived to equalise and beat us on penalties. (We apparently lost another to Rangers at some point but I've erased that game entirely).

This was us now. Top flight side and against a team there was genuine belief we could beat.

Game over by half time 😂 just didnt turn up.

Luckily the next Semi-Final I remember, Aberdeen at Tynecastle, was much better...

Spoiler

It was worse.

Looking back it's not hard to understand why older fans were in tears when we did eventually win a Scottish Cup Semi Final 😂

That saints semi was one of the weirdest feelings at a game ever. We had just qualified for the final but there wasn’t too much excitement on our bus. Think all the celebrations were done after the 3rd went in and the game wasn’t great after that.

Now compare that to the Hearts CIS semi or the Sevco and Aberdeen ones a few years back.. now those were celebrated properly.

FWIW The Courier today is saying that Ian Baraclough is the leading contender for the NI job, and its "his to lose".

Expected to be named interm boss initially.

Was Lanarkshire briefly gripped by a flared jeans craze in 2011 that I've forgotten about or did Jamie Murphy have trouble finding clothes that fit him?

Baraclough was absolutely shite when he was managing us*. 

*Apart from when he masterminded an absolute ragdolling of Rangers for 180 minutes.
