Gianfranco Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 There’s three of us going Edinburgh to Knock tomorrow morning and then an hours bus north to Sligo. None of us have tickets so it’ll be fanzone for us (looking like The Garavogue). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allroy for Prez Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Alexanderball sucked the life out of me last season to the point I stopped going, stopped listening to his delusional pressers and only really checked the teams to laugh at the random line ups and keep an eye on the score out of boredom and habit. After a while I stopped caring as to whether we won or lost which as anyone who knows me and my approach to Motherwell would find unthinkable. I don’t know why I or anyone else was surprised by the Sligo shambles but I guess we live in hope. I’m now at the point where I’d take losing to Sligo, Inverness and the opening 5/6 league games if it meant he’d be binned and we could hopefully begin to find some (false) hope and enjoyment in football again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 I won't pretend I'm not as scunnered as everyone else but did we not technically end last season pretty high up the form tables? Starting from the (incredibly selective point) St Mirren game onwards our record was W3 D1 L3, with the losses being the OF and Tannadice. The Sligo performance was more reminiscent of the January- April losing streak than it was the run-in but hopefully some of that can be attributed to rustiness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I considered travelling without a ticket but it doesn’t have the appeal of a Nancy, although I suspect that everyone who went to Nancy went to the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine there will be a few tickets floating around on the day...I think that at least some ticketless supporters will see it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Did the club re-ballot the returned tickets? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by the clubs twitter replies - 2000 out of the 300 tickets would have been returned due to all folk that won't be back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd only be officially entitled to 700-900 but you'd hope more would be offered, neither side would sell out the home sections against us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowsdower Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 I randomly got thinking about a fan that used to write to the club to tell them to take more in inswinging corners. I wonder if they still get letters or if it's all tweets now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
