Stark Is Ready For Well Challenge

Last updated : 19 September 2006 By Andyboy
But, even after stunning cup victories over First Division Hamilton Accies and then SPL Aberdeen at Firhill nearly a month ago, Stark feels it will take a performance of heroic proportions to see off Maurice Malpas side tommorow night.

Starky said "The Aberdeen win was one of the biggest results in the last 50 years for us. Lightning tends not to strike twice, let alone three times."

"Motherwell will be huge favourites and rightly so. It's a daunting task, but we will certainly raise our game."

"We have to be realistic and, while Motherwell have not had the best start to the season, they are a good, solid SPL team.

"I watched them on Sunday and they were really unfortunate to lose to Hearts and did not deserve to get beat.

"We need to show people we can play and give them a game. We will not sit back and invite pressure."

"We also knocked out Hamilton and for us to beat a First Division side was a big shock."

"So, to then do it to Aberdeen was probably as good as it gets, but you never know, nothing is impossible."

"We will certainly give it a good try against Motherwell."
