Swello Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 1-0 Queens at half time - Adam "he's cummin, he's cummin, he's cummin on the wummen" Cummins scores against 'Well for the 2nd time this season.
Antiochas III Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 Deserved. Should have won by more. Excellent result for their first game of the season. 'Mon the Young Well.
capt_oats Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 That was thoroughly enjoyable. Nicely done. Started out looking rusty but grew into the game. The 2nd was an absolute peach. #youngmotherwell
ropy Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 I fully accept what the fans of non-premiersjp teams think of the tournament but Motherwell will have got exactly what they were looking for out of it, 2 hard games against league teams (unless we draw an U20s team of course).

Del_Superwell Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 Groundsman wouldn't allow due to us having a few 1st team home games coming up back to back, 1st team are given priority at Fir Park.
Hampden Diehard Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Groundsman wouldn't allow due to us having a few 1st team home games coming up back to back, 1st team are given priority at Fir Park. Well should have withdrawn then or at least sent their ball boys and announcer. Farce that we both move further away to play the game.Not at all ragin' that we lost........

Motherwell u20s are using Forthbank as their base this season rather than the Excelsior so technically it was their "home" stadium.Agree about the lack of ball boys. That was fairly farcical.As I posted last night, thoroughly enjoyed the game though. As I did the Edinburgh City and Airdrie games last season.
rambunctious Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Yeah was a bit shit having to play that at Forthbank. I very much enjoyed the 2 games last season that were at Fir Park. Think we had the biggest crowds in both those rounds as well?

Hurray for Motherwell!
thisGRAEME Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Queens keeper looks like he's carrying a bit of timber.
an86 Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Motherwell Youths beat QP reserves, at a stadium miles away from the locale of either set of fans, in a national competition. 168 people turn up. Can anyone at all explain a single benefit of this shambles? Get it right in the fucking sea.

The only teams that are benefitting are the under-20 sides (and possibly the Welsh/Irish teams). All of this is to the detriment of the intended participants it seems.
Hampden Diehard Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Crusaders away was my preferred draw for the next round.....lucky white heather

I don't even think it does benefit the U20s. They're playing against squad players from lower league clubs. Last night won't have harmed Motherwell's youngsters, but it won't have had much of a positive effect on their development. Get the good ones, the likes of Chris Cadden a prime example, out on loan to play with and against experienced players in truly competitive games.
Bring Your Own Socks Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Maybe it's got something to do with SPFL mandarins moving deckchairs around and achieving the square root of f**k all whilst trousering a health salary. Cha-ching! Or maybe Scotland will become World Cup winners in 15-20 years time. Tricky one
