Whilst I think its extremely unlikely, what you can say is that's 7 games in Cup and league and we have been better than everyone of our opponents. I can't remember a time where I could say that.

With the quality we have in the team and a little bit of luck I could see us winning the cup. The OF are as poor as I can remember and realistically no team to fear. I'm not saying it's likely but it's certainly possible and I really don't care who we get in the semi final, id rather face the OF in a semi than in a final tbh. Re needing other strikers , this is where we all see the game differently. We have more than enough forward players in our ranks. As for AP I don't think he's playing poorly, I more see a guy who's lost confidence. He did well yesterday to square it for RCC and had a very good then a very poor header. He just needs a couple of goals to get going. He also needs better service. Appreciate not everyone see's it this way but that's the beauty of football and these forums.

Apart from our goal I Ioved the yellow card awarded to Kevin Nisbet. Memo to referees - more of this please! Good luck for your transplant Exile.

Unlikely I think. My prediction is: Motherwell v Celtic Rangers V St Miren

I don’t get why fans either refuse to throw a player in at the deep end or only wish to give them a token 10 minutes in a meaningless game. Football fans are fickle. There is a middle ground, and new players should get meaningful game time to settle in.

Lewis Ferguson barely got a start in his first 3 or 4 months at Bologna to let him settle in before he found himself as a mainstay and captain of the team. Chucking Miller in the deep end when he hasn't played any football since we played Carlisle almost 3 months ago ( 1 minute for Scotland aside) does nothing to help his development either.

😂😂 Me and my mate got a two hour dispensation to watch the game. If you could have seen the looks of folk when me and him jumping about the pub like 5 year olds singing "oh Motherwell, oh Motherwell is wonderful.." Perfect start, now for day two and a liver transplant tomorrow... OH MOTHERWELL, OH MOTHERWELL..... IS WONDERFUL.

The January transfer window is the first real chance. Until then, we can only hope he proves many of us wrong. Otherwise, the next few months will continue to be frustrating for both him and us as his stock as a striker falls.

Spot on with that but as that wont happen till the January transfer window it will be more of the same. I'd love to be proved wrong with Stamatelopoulos but hes showing no signs of that happening.

Unless something changes, and nothing we’ve seen suggests it will, he needs to be replaced at the first opportunity with someone who gives us a proper centre forward threat and goals.

I understand the idea of easing youngsters in but let’s not pretend this is the same situation. Miller has already racked up plenty of first team games for his age. A token 10 minutes at 3–0 down does nothing for his development and only wastes the opportunity to actually test him properly.

The goal who called the cook? 🙄

The first 2 podcasts are on here but I couldn’t find them. Anyway this one is good

I'm starting to think you've never seen youngsters integrated into new teams before. Giving them a 10 minute workout in a game with no pressure is pretty standard. Otherwise you end up with fans posting on websites calling them dug shite because they hadn't got up to speed instantly with their new team mates the first 60 minutes they played.

Funny that you mention Harry Paton. Apparently he has signed with Forge FC, a Canadian Premier League team that play their games in Hamilton (Ontario).

I reckon between today's game and the semi final we'll rake in north of £500K. That'll boost our coffers somewhat. Its also given us a crack at another final and cup. A good day at the office. Good to get that elusive win as well.

I'm also going for Welsh, because he is exactly what we were needing in central defence, and it was great to get a clean sheet today. RCC looks like he will be a good addition and was a great strike for his goal. Shout out to Longelo, who is consistently good.

This will be the 15th game in under JBA and incredibly we’ve lost one game and that was the first friendly v Twente. hard to believe we’ve won and drawn every other game. Not that I want to get too carried away but I doubt very much any manager in our history has went 13 games without defeat. let’s hope for a win on Saturday to really kick on our league campaign.

What should we do?

It was that UEFA Pro Licence science keeping him out of the team until 81 mins tonight.

It is indeed.

Peter Leven cant really be considered a new manager! 😉

Its 10 minutes more than he had last week. Next week he might get 30. The week after he might get a start. Willing to bet thats the most minutes any 19 year old Scot has had in Serie A. Having watched their game against Inter, they have some seriously good midfielders. Its not Harry Paton keeping him out the team.....

Jeez! I forgot about that! Absolutely! Great chance. If Stama misses that he gets slaughtered!

Agree - at the time it felt like a must score moment - I thought the same with Said when he ballooned over the bar. rcc in first half should go down to great save by the keeper
