    My brother picked up my tickets for me - I was gobsmacked when I couldn't get them on Sunday before the game. I agree that some ticketing arrangements are so stuck in the past that it is unbelievable - huge amount of frustration for everyone.
    Anyway - it's my son's first top flight away game and my visit to Pittodrie for over 30 years. We've got a two night stay sorted and some sightseeing booked in to take the edge off a likely gubbing 🤣

    Ticketing arrangements are beyond belief. Enjoy your trip and who knows - we might get a good result!

    The boy and I will be going - tickets bought before last night - and printed off today in work.
    Tying it in with visiting my dad before the game and maybe meeting up with the missus afterward for a curry- trying to make the most of it.
    My son also wanting to go to away game - so looking at making a weekend of it up in Aberdeen - is Pittodrie a good choice for first top league away game? I was there on a supporters bus midweek in the late 80s - so can’t remember anything except sitting on benches and getting home about 1am. I was shattered the next day at school 🤣

    For me it is the current level of cluelessness that is the most worrying.
    I understand that new players take time to bed in but the team played like it had no idea at all what to do - at no point did I sense possession building to anything at all - and you would expect something to click - at least for a while - at some point!
    We will be in our usual seats on Saturday - for what is now a de-facto friendly - but I'm beginning to lose heart and hope for this season.

    Really disjointed performance - no excitement or expectation building when we get the ball - fully expect it to fizzle out and it always does.
    I hate to say I agree that there is a Stubbs vibe here - doubly worse as I had high hopes when he was appointed - thought he might even be an upgrade on JG 🤣

    As others have said - our best player this season by a mile. Has a bit of vision and creativity which we will find hard to replace.
    I hope he doesn’t end up at Hearts or the dons

    Why do you think Wolves gave him a new contract last year, if he is a League One Player? He's also attracting interest from clubs at home and abroad at a higher level than league one. No matter, he's not our player and he never will be, been a pleasure watching him this season. I dread to think where we would be without all his match winning performances. 
    McGrath is nowhere near as good as Ronan and i agree i'm not surprised he isn't getting a game at Wigan. He has never - and will never - be anywhere near an EPL club.

    He's still been our best player this season though. 
    Wherever he goes, i reckon he'll do well.

    southsidebud got a reaction from Sweeper07 in The Stephen Robinson & Diarmuid O'Carroll Appreciation Thread   
    There's no doubt he had a really good spell at Motherwell for the most part. As I said in another thread, I have a good friend who is a 'well fan and maintains that he was hamstrung by injuries toward the end and that was the main reason they fell away. He states that he is still held in high regard by the Motherwell Support.
    I think we should be excited by this - it may turn out to be an upgrade on Goody - and initially I was quite worried about who we would end up with.
    Looking forward the game tomorrow night!

    Excellent appointment.  Welcome to the Saints...
    I'm sure he'll have a good rapour in the dressing room and with the Board...
    Well done to the Board too.
    Onwards and upwards.

    Like most folks, this one came out the blue for me.
    Can't see how anyone could be unhappy with this - better than all other realistic options being mentioned.
    My Motherwell supporting mate says that he was popular and rated by the fans and that the last season he had there was destroyed by key injuries.
    Obviously it could all go pear shaped but at the moment it seems like - by far - the best option.
