  1. I understand money talks , I just wish for once that we could keep building the momentum we have at present and see our the season. We can do something special this year and Jim is supposed to be St Mirren through and through. I know he’s a Celtic fan initially but his character and his status as cup winning captain and someone who’d run thro a brick wall makes me hope that he might stay and finish the job he has here. Can we offer him a better deal? 
     

    is it wrong that whilst I know it doesn’t happen a lot that we might be able to compete at the right end and maybe get to Hampden ? Is it wrong to think saints could become a very stable middle table to top half side for a while?

     

     

  2. He actually leads and Motherwell seem to genuinely care about their supporters. I don’t think our board understands looking after the support. We hear snippets of what a wonderful support blah blah blah but we still don’t man the phone to let them contact us nor post a ticket to them anymore when they live miles away and can’t get to the ground between 10 and bloody 2 . Bring back whatever we had pre pandemic as it was a hundred times better than this crap

    Fantastic stance from a chairman who seems to understand the mood of his fans far better than our board seem to .

    Well done ‘Well 👏👏👏👏

    Our board would not know fan engagement if it but them on the nose. They don’t get it sadly

    If giving rangers and Celtic both stands is the difference in us having the likes of Alnwick and Jones then i’m all for it I’m afraid, I would much rather see a better product on the park and it’s only for a couple of games a season.

    Also that Motherwell away stand holds about double our stand so I can totally understand st mirren’s way of thinking here.

     

    I’d rather pay an higher season ticket than allow them two stands. Sure I might be in the minority but it I was asked to pay 350 instead of 300 I’d go for that any day 

  5. Absolutely. Isn’t it sad that after all the chat about sorting things we still let them take our family stand which houses the children we hope to develop into full adult supporters. It’s beyond me how we haven’t sorted this . Let’s be clear Motherwell have a fantastic model and a fantastic leader. We have neither and the community club we say we are doesn’t wash with me

    Disagree on Power being better than Erhahon. They are two completely different types of player. Erhahon is much better at retaining possession than Power is.

    Shaughnessy, Alnwick, Tait, Power provide plenty of experience in the squad. I don't honestly see where Flynn fits in next season. There's no point in keeping him around for sentimentality.

    Erahon seems to be given special treatment as he’s one of our academy. He offers little bar winning a few fouls and occasionally breaking up an attack. Not a bad lad but not in the same league as some of our other graduates who we lost ( for v little) . Power can be a little to keen on keeping the e ball but in general he offers much more than Ethan. You only have to look at Jims starting 11 each week and I’d say he agrees with me on this one

    Erwin, Miller and Flynn will be released.

    Alnwick and Mccarthy will be offered new deals but leave.

    Tanser has an option of a year but not specified if that's our decision or mutual. 

    Power I'm still on the fence over. He is good in the tackle but plays us into trouble much, much too often.  I know folk love him and I think he's fine but I don't get the levels of adulation he receives.

    Power is Better than Erahon for sure tho and will surely be offered a new deal -  Flynn could be retained as a utility player perhaps on slightly lesser wage ? It would be wise to keep some experience and Flynn and Tait would be able to cover several positions but mainly as back up

    Once Connor McCarthy is back in the team we switch Captain Joe up front. Problem solved. 

    Personally I’d rather we took a punt on one of our Academy forwards than sign LG. 

    Folk are kidding themselves on if they believe this will be ok. We don’t score a lot of goals as it is and now we have our best striker out. No harm to Erwin or Main but we all know they probably won’t score enough to get us to where we want

    The window isn’t shut mate, let’s wait and see who else we bring in.

    Gogic makes no sense unless we’re letting Erahon or power go in summer? I am at a loss as to why we need this? We need fast movement and creativity not a sitting midfield player

    Have a feeling we might see some movement today. 

    Seen a couple of things on Twitter regarding Aberdeen saying hedges is away so expect McGrath will follow.

    Hopefully Kiltie will be like a new signing when McGrath goes as Kiltie isn’t a midfielder where, he is wasted there and needs to play further forward, definitely a player in there.

    Not convinced at all by Kiltie. 

  11. Disgraceful. A shambles is what we have at present and the club I’m afraid is on a downward trend. This needs fixed and the fans need to speak up here. It’s our club. We pay the wages of the players and without our support this team is nothing. Im at the point we’re im  just about to cancel my Smisa membership as they don’t seem to have any influence at all. Hat a shit show this is. How about SMISA step up here let’s pay our money and revert to the old plan that didn’t include the kibble.
