welldaft Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) You can tell our season is going so well when you have 2+ pages avoiding the actual subject of Motherwell Football Club Let us hope we can get back to football after tomorrow night, although I fear more culinary talk come Thursday morning..... Edit - just read Al B post. Great minds... Edited January 26, 2021 by welldaft 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit - just read Al B post. Great minds... On the contrary, I don't think anyone is avoiding it at all...it's just not worth worrying about. It's only football. If I was offered relegation in exchange for being able to go out for a meal and a few beers this weekend with my mates, I'd absolutely snap your hand off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do you get these @capt_oats? Speaking of pies, I've never had a roll & pie. Am I alone in this?

The only time I've ever bought one was up in the AB area. It definitely seems to be a thing from that neck of the woods as I can't remember seeing them anywhere local. Having said that, I've improvised before and made my own with a pie casing and a portion of lasagne. Does the job.

ropy Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I am not going to close my mind to the lasagne pie idea. When all this is over I will have time on my hands and will be willing to travel the country tasting local delicacies and offering an opinion to fellow ‘Well fans. All suggestions welcome. Might start in the islands, Pie in the Skye? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazylegsjoe_mfc Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I had a pizza with chips on it in Toni Macaroni when it first opened in Motherwell and like everything else in that particular establishment, it was rather underwhelming. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsh on their Risotto Bolognese, IMO. I mean, the Toni isn't a patch on Da Claudio's but it's decent for a value for money lunch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazylegsjoe_mfc Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 The first time I went I got a carbonara which had a bit of plastic which suspiciously looked like a microwaveable film in it. Was never too keen after that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could try and think of a witty riposte and as much as the chat around Paneer and Lasagne pies is fun and a welcome distraction I am certainly worried about the football. With bugger all else happening it is probably affecting my mood more than it normally does. Are there more important things in life - absolutely. But it has been a shitshow of a year and normally I could expect my team to cheer me up every other weekend. Not happening and not for a few months. I hope and expect us to survive as I really do not want to see the club relegated for the 1st time in 35 or so years. Not even for a beer with my mates this weekend. Just me maybe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillips455 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) To put some sense of football back into this thread, i assume we are not appealing Polworths Red card? I havent heard anythig since Saturday and i doubt the redcard would be fully rescinded (most Likely a yellow which would still lead to a suspension, even if that).

I've been to Tony Macaroni once, decided to get the Tony Macaroni since I figured the dish named after the restaurant must be the best they do. I was ill for a week afterwards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may hear later today or even tomorrow. Not sure if there is a deadline for such appeals ? I suspect we would fail if it is the Refs word v Polworth. However if it meant he was available for tomorrow’s game the Manager may be inclined to appeal. Depends also on whether Lawless and OHara are both available for selection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezz Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I know he’s not exactly set the heather alight for us, but what’s the chances of Celtic trying to grab O’Donnell this month now that it looks like Frimpong is away and by all accounts El Hamed is desperate to get back to Israel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
