Motherwell FC a disgrace

It must be great to have such meagre expectations and ambitions, watching the Motherwell fans celebrate getting a point from the mighty Celtic FC, they are easy pleased. But the main point of it all has to be the state of what they call a football pitch, lets not use this as an excuse, we should still have won comfortably, but it wouldn't have been football.
the Spl have in the past put certain restictions on teams joining the league, they made ST Mirren put in under-soil heating which they were hardly likely to use, at great cost to them, they made Gretna play at the dump we were at yesterday, i suppose that didn't help, the rule was you had to have a 10,000 seater stadium to take part in the SPL.
But surely the basic rule should be to have a decent playing surface, one of their own players tells us he drives past public parks that are in better playing condition, but its nothing new, last year at about the same time they had a number of games postponed because of their pitch, they have done nothing to improve it, and are allowed to get away with it, Boyle charged us £25 to get into Fir Park, i'm sure there are local farmers who have better surfaces who would have let us in cheaper. I think we as Celtic supporters must think seriously about what we can do about being treated so shabbily, at almost every away ground we are treated as second class citizens, i think its time we started doing something about it
