Anyone watching this by any chance?

Currently Motherwell 5 Hibs 6.. ??? ??? ???

Craig Brown Sexy Football

Not as good a score as Forfar 5 - 4 East Fife.

Lucas J down for a penno for the chance to make it 6-6!

Saved.

Is there anything on this game?

1963-64 season remember it well.

6-6. Lucas scores a screamer.

WHAT A FOOKING GOAL !!!

6-6 !!!

That's a fucking peach of a goal.

Sign him up Danny!!

6-2 up and you fooked it up...

I bet that doesn't get sung much !!!

I imagine Bob's Orange is dancing around his living room right now. Motherwell were 4-2 down at half-time.

And 6-2 down not long after!

What a great goal from Lucas..and the 'Well fans were heading for the exits with half an hour to play and 2-6 down!

So that score line did actually happen then?

Forfar are my Scottish team - FACT!

I've seen them play and everything..not against East Fife though 8)

It did. My gramp used to go on about it all the time. I think it must've been his favourite bit of football trivia.

It did 

Forfar 4 East Fife 5 has never happened though.

Yes it did....I've seen East Fife play, but wouldn't call myself a fan.

Is the fact Forfar are known as The Loons, anything to do with your support?

ha ha! Not quite, was watching the man city game so just seen this thread! Hearts only drew with Dundee united and so the peg sellers and Motherwell will represent Scotland in the Europa league next season, along with Dundee united. Hearts have been rancid this season!

They love Lucas up there and are raving about him even saw a thread on a rangers forum saying they should sign him as Motherwell probably can't afford him

No, it is a fantastic nickname though. We just happened to be in Scotland a few years ago and stayed just outside Forfar and there was a game on. It would have been rude not to go. It's the only time I've ever been to a game when a flock of Oystercatchers flew over the ground ???

I have a strange facination with Scottish football. I think it's something to do with wanting to actually visit the places which for years were just strange names read out at the end of the football results. Scotland's a fantastic place as well (shame it's full of Jocks ;))

Here's my one bit of Forfar trivia (apart from the nickname)..Forfar play at Station Park but the nearest station is actually 14 miles away (Dundee or Arbroath). Now THAT'S interesting. 8)

I read something recently about Lucas begging Everton not to put a price on his head as that would bollocks any chance of a move to Motherwell.

The standard up there is plummeting all the time, I wouldn't be surprised to see him being one of the bigger names in Scotland fairly soon. If Boyd does come to the English Prem he will be totally out of his depth.

Agreed. He doesn't even look that good in Scotland!

the trouble with Scottish football is it's too much like Sunday pub league football, hence the 6-6 scoreline :)

Last time I saw them, they were pants.

He used to play for us, didnt we sell him to Everton?

Yes, he's on loan from Everton.

Keeper should've done better really...

John Sutton playing for Motherwell aswell. Did I remember him playing 30 minutes for us once?

Yes and he was absolute shit.

I concur.

Think Lucas will be given a chance at Everton next season.

Lucas has signed for Everton?!

I know they've already got Lukas, but do they need another keeper?

I, too, am down with that observation.

Highlights: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/scotland/8663871.stm

Caught these highlights today.  Fantastic strike by Lukas.   
Where is he headed on loan next?

Swindon

No chance, he's out of contract in 18 months and they'll sell him this summer to womewhere in Scotland

Just to throw this one out there...IF we get promoted do you reckon Lukas will give us a look especially if he's out of contract in 18 months? Could be very beneficial for both parties.

Is Womewhere near Inverness?
