The experience last night was a shocker (and that was on iFollow) and whilst not wishing repetitive strain injury upon anybody. The Ultras make the away game experience a proper away game, Killie for example was brilliant and only down to the numbers joining in. There was also a touch of irony as former Steelman Liam Polworth floated a free kick beyond the back post, where Taylor’s thumping header sent the ball back across Kelly and into the net, and floor Motherwell. Seen it at grounds and it can lead the crowd after a goal or when on the attack- but not constant for 90 minutes.

Most of the fans appeared to be in the 18-25 age range, but there were some older supporters accompanying some younger fans, presumably their children, within the group.Rory McKenizie’s ball into the six-yard box found Armstrong and O’Donnell tussling in front of Kelly. Four minutes later Spittal and Van Veen combined once again to open up the home defence but this time Mayo got it right nipping the ball off the ‘Well striker as he cut into the penalty area. Despite both sets of players finding it difficult to stay on their feet, Motherwell maintained their tight passing game as Killie, having passed up a string of chances desperately strived to test Kelly. Where they are at the moment is crap because when they start a song nobody around them joins in and it rarely takes off. But for that to happen, the punters have to feel a buzz around the place that'll make them want to create an atmosphere.

Wycombe was a drum without much chanting or at best the chanting was incidental to the drum as it couldn't be heard over it.The idea that sizable numbers of young men and boys are willing to meet up to rehearse and pre-plan their ‘performance’ is something to marvel at, not condemn. Mikel Arteta’s side hammered managerless Crystal Palace 4-1 to go into the international break with an eight point lead over Manchester City. Although his cross was possibly intended for Van Veen, it found Dean Cornelius, who took a first touch before volleying the ball just beyond Walker’s right-hand post. They have grown up in Europe before Brexit, and can go online and join away-day web forums that feature bewildering clips of Italian ultras arriving in Rome like a hedonistic army, billowed in smoke, enlightened by fluorescent flares and carrying banners bigger than Caesar’s legions.

if the guy that uses the megaphone reads this, do us a favour and stop pressing the daft wee 'nee naw' button all the time. On the other hand, I've been on a couple of ground marches with the Ultras and the drum creates a fantastic atmosphere.Celtic looked to impose themselves in the early stages, with Motherwell soaking up much of the early pressure deep into their own half. You’re hardly going to turn up wanting to sing and cheer, no, what you get is folks groaning with frustration because it’s going exactly as they expected it to. I think the snare the Ultras had worked well, they used it properly unlike some idiots that mindlessly bang it all the way through the match. A man who sits in front of me in the centre of East Stand said his grandson was in the FCU and that he was worried that the guys might just fade away, disillusioned with the decision. As well as the drum they’ve got a carry bag, with drumsticks and beaters,” Derek Watson, who put the boys in touch with Collins, said.

As the hour mark approached and the ‘Well boss prepared for the double introduction of Joe Efford and Josh Morris, Shaw squandered a great chance to level the scores. Motherwell were blown away as Celtic racked up four first-half goals and a further four in the second half to clinch a dominant victory at K-Park. The Irishman’s sidefoot shot across the ‘keeper was heading just inside his post until Walker, at full length, palmed the ball just wide of his goal. Ashworth-Clifford’s floated corner kick sailed invitingly into the path of Hayes, who powered her header into the top-right corner beyond the reach of Mutch.Three generations of supporting Saints connected the grandfather to his 15-year-old grandson, and the idea that his young and passionate generation might fade away is exactly the outcome St Johnstone could not afford. When songs started in other parts of the ground and we're picked up by the masses, the Ultras just carried on banging their drum and droning their own chants. Tegan Bowie’s chipped through ball left Larisey free to race through on goal, but another exceptional reaction save from Mutch kept the scoreline intact.
