Hope the team wear it again at the weekend so that it isn't just remembered for 'that game'.

I think jens will have seen enough about that rancid club last night to steer well clear of them.

SOD, Johnny K and Tom Sparrow were all immense, but I went for Fadinger who was just everywhere. Showed how much we miss him when he isnt there (or wearing a face mask!).

To inject some positivity into the discussion we have sold 2k tickets for this, so the away end will be sizeable and noisy. A fitting end to an incredible season. I hope we get at least the point we deserve for all our efforts this season, but even if we dont, the squad deserve the proper send off they were denied last night, especially with a few of them definitely away in the summer, Slatts in particular. Once more, "Stand Up And Sing For Motherwell!"

South of France or East End of Glasgow? Mmmmm let me think about that one🤔

The team deserve a sold out backing!!! COYW

Absolutely agree with everything you said. And it looks like everyone's going: 2 seats remaining. Edit: Sold out now.

Every club needs to take every opportunity to call out this nonsense Dave as and when it happens, sitting back and complaining about Var, poor referees, perceived bias etc, etc but doing nothing about it, will change nothing. The SFA sre shit scared to upset either of the ugly sisters, as are the Scottish football media so change wont happen overnight, but it has to start somewhere.

Also i want to add at this stage they can show any stills they want the key to it all its not 100 percent conclusive in anyone of them so Beaton and co gave that penalty on the grounds it looks like or might be.

My only concern about Max taking over is whether he has the man management skills to be successful. No doubt he has the coaching qualifications and sings from the same hymn sheet as Jens, philosophy wise, but Jens has a stature about him that demands respect. Hopefully its not an issue this season, but if it is the board will have another big decision to make.

Between “talking” about this and a big mug of coffee, I’m sure my blood pressure is thru the roof. Time for a walk !!

SFA need to get some outside help to improve our officiating (on field and VAR) the monthly VAR review should be renamed what it actually is “It’s only an excuse” pretty damning reflection on our standard of officials when we have zero representation at the World Cup. 😳 if we have already Solicited help from another country then we are Fkd. just to add that I am trying to be objective in my views, I still don’t know how Hearts didnt get a penalty for Longelo’s “arm” ball in our box.

If JBA does go, hopefully we can find a like for like replacement, perhaps recommendation from him? Don’t know much about his assistant but perhaps he might be the replacement. whatever transpires we need to continue down the same pathway. Did we hit the jackpot with JBA and our players? Probably there are other managers and players out there who can produce the same and we need to make sure we can find them. Perhaps easier said than done.

I see the fan group, that owns Hearts, has issued a statement about refereeing standards. The Society should do the same.

Beaton had already made his mind before he went to the screen lets be honest here he was so so quick to make a decision couldn't wait to get back on the pitch,give the pen and get up the tunnel. As a club we should be making sure he has nothing to do with our games in Referee or VAR capacity. And this talk about we were not good last night the last 15 mins until that disgusting decision only one team in it and one team that looked like they were going to win it fairly that team was Motherwell.

My point entirely 👍👍👍

Hung off from posting last night as I was way too angry about what transpired at the end of the game. Regardless of our thoughts on the matter, it doesnt really change anything. Hibs last minute winner means we need to go to Easter Road and get something. Given we have won 1 and drawn 2 against them this season and now have an injustice to fire the belly, we should embrace that situation. Re last nights game. I really despair about any Motherwell fan who watched that last night and is anything other than proud of our performance. Many Motherwell teams in the past have utterly capitulated to Celtic. But we went toe to toe with them for 90 minutes and were the better team by every metric, other than the one that actually counts. It was a great performance and, but for a bit more quality/composure in the final third, we might have won that game. There is a real feel good factor about Fir Park right now. Three stands up singing and bouncing in a game against one of the ugly sisters is a rare thing indeed. Finally, to address the issue of our record against the top 6. It is true that we have only won 3 out of 19. But we have also drawn 8. So in 11/19 games the top 6 couldnt beat us either and of the games we did lose only Hearts beat us by more than 1 goal and our performances have been more than decent. We should embrace these times and use the injustice we all feel about the season as a whole to fuel us going forward. Everyone to Easter Road......

We played well. Our goalie had zero saves, so including the PK, Celtic had 3 shots on Target. I posted the stats earlier in this thread. what done us in, obviously, was VAR team inserting themselves into the proceedings when it was not necessary. I keep hearing VAR is for clear and obvious errors. When no players or fans are screaming for a penalty, where it’s not 100% clear if its handball or header, juat sit in your seat and STFU and let the game continue.

Additional time is allowed for a penalty kick to be taken at the end of each half of the match or extra time. In this case, the penalty kick is completed (and the half is ended) when the ball: ➡ stops moving ➡ goes out of play ➡ is played by any player other than the defending goalkeeper or ➡ the referee stops play for an offence by the kicker or the kicker’s team So if you are over the alloted 5 mins of ET, the match goes on till the Var check is resolved and if its a pen, when the ball hits the net etc its game over

Hear! Hear!

Absolutely this! 🧡❤️🧡

Alpha FC fans without the bus fare.

I agree JBA will be off. Unfortunately, I don't think the leagues elsewhere are much better. I remember reading a long article years ago about how Arsene Wenger was screwed over by Bernard Tapie's match fixing in the French League. And then there were all the corruption issues in the Italian leagues. In the EPL we had Fergie Time and all the late goals and late pens Man U won on a regular basis. Money talks, especially with the billions floating around these days, and it's the big clubs that always get the benefit of the decisions.

There was only 10 seconds of added time left when the incident occurred. So adding time for the VAR wouldnt have occurred. Barely enough time to allow the penalty to be taken.

Scotland v Denmark. Kenny McLean.
