No thanks. Sorry boys but you'll just have to wait for us to get to a semi or draw QP away. Exactly what I was thinking, but f**k that. I’ll spend the money in the club shop next time I’m at Fir Park.* *whilst complaining, again/loudly, about the cost of the kit and training gear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye not going to Hampden will set off the £55 I spent on the away strip last week and allow me to get in my token annual visit to Stirling Albion (#support your local team) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of good people in there on the face of it. Three main take aways that have nothing to do with anything really: - Greg has a dugout! - Martin Grey having a grey video - David MacFarlane looks a bit like John Boyle.

Archie McSquackle Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I used to think I would recognise most Motherwell supporters but it's obvious that years in the Phil O'Donnell Stand with only a few away games means I've been living in a bubble. Apart from Derek Watson, the only face I recognised was Colin Park! Plenty of talented, willing people which is very encouraging. There could be comments on diversity but you can only vote for those that put themselves forward. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t believe David is any relation, but John Boyle’s daughter is one of the candidates. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handsome_Devil Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Just scanned the bios there and that really is an excellent group of candidates...it's a shame so many will have to lose but I hope whoever misses out continues to offer their skills and services on whatever basis works out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

standupforthemotherwell Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I echo some of the above comments that there are some excellent candidates and it's a shame that most will miss out. I hope that at least some of the unsuccessful candidates will assist the society on working groups even if not on the board because we clearly have some knowledgeable and experienced fans. I'm not sure who will have my vote yet as it is a genuinely difficult decision but good luck @DerekWatson @Vietnam91 and any other candidates who are on here in disguise 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellmental21 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Really impressed with the calibre showing for election. I think the most pleasing thing Is there is Many boxes ticked in what they were looking for from business experience, HR, governance,Events, fundraising etc. across a few candidates challenge is actually narrowing it down to 4 for me as there’s prob 5/6 I think could strengthen us regardless of the outcome it looks like the society is in good hands 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelyDosser Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 (edited) Very difficult to choose, especially since Derek is up for re election. He's been top notch in my opinion Edited August 5 by SteelyDosser 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaag97 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I am standing for election. Not a frequent poster here for a long time - used to spend many a day on SteelmenOnline. Happy to answer any questions or take any slagging coming my way a great set of candidates to be fair, lots of great experiences in there. Very pleased to see that, regardless of whether I’m elected or not! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
