jags on tour Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Interesting to read in the match preview Archie says Abdul won't play as he is on 5 bookings and we don't want to risk him, if that was the case why didn't he play or even come on last week and pick up a daft booking meaning he was suspended for this week?

Ancipital Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Interesting to read in the match preview Archie says Abdul won't play as he is on 5 bookings and we don't want to risk him, if that was the case why didn't he play or even come on last week and pick up a daft booking meaning he was suspended for this week? Because suspensions for 6 bookings kick in 14 days after the 6th booking occurs hence the last 2 games being out of bounds for Abdul as any suspension incurred last week or tomorrow would be served next season. I assume he was injured at Hamilton tho, if he'd been booked then he would have missed tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggernaut Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Yes, but suspensions carry over. Thanks for that. If there's no Lawless and no Abdul today it'll be interesting to see what Archie does in terms of personnel and formation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potty trained Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Thanks for that.

Blackpool Jags Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 I can (hopefully) see Motherwell not going full pelt for this one as they've got an interesting double header coming up in the next week. No point in them risking silly injuries, red cards etc. I suppose our own motivation will be in a) looking to atone for last week's score, and preserving/improving our positive goal difference.

stillresigned Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 eeason or another.For some reason I think this might be an interesting game. I agree Motherwell are unlikely to want to pick up any bookings for what now looks like their game against Sevco. Which incidentally, I can't see them winning for one r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Nixon Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Nine changes to the Motherwell squad. It'll probably be still nil-nil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brodieboy Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Interesting team. Obviously Craigen and BRE haven't yet been released from their contract if both are still eligible to play. Both being given a chance to impress scouts/say goodbye I guess. No Duggan either, who I thought might have featured, unless he's injured again. Welsh really was crocked wasn't he (no surprise). It seemed a minor bump at the time as well. I imagine some of the others are just too fatigued to even make the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThickAsThieves Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 We're playing 3 at the back according to Radio Scotland. Didn't hear who's playing alongside Richards-Everton and Hendry though - is it O'Donnell? With Booth and Elliott as wing-backs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo Bobby Bland is one of the most underestimated soul/blues singers of the 20th Century. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 I just watched the highlights. They are edited to show the best parts, but even so it looked like quite an open game, with both teams creating several good chances and both keepers doing well. Surprised to learn that it's 19 years since we last won at Fir Park. While looking for the highlights I saw this, an atmospheric film of the first match against Motherwell in the victorious 1921 Scottish Cup campaign. Great to see some of those Thistle legends in action. PS: Do Well really have a player called "John Thomas?" His parents must have done that for a laugh!

I can't even mind a refereeing decision where I thought he's got that one wrong. Their goalie flattening Taylor was so out of character with the game in general that I guess he just forgot the rules of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
