We didnt really tighten up until after the League Cup Semi Final v St Mirren and that was in November.

Not sure Im in this camp. I am concerned, so not officially backing him. However, in the spirit of the question, I think it all depends on performances. If he can turn that around and scrape a few draws here and there or even the odd win then Id be of a mind to stick rather than twist. Butnif the performances continue to be increasingly poor and we continue to lose games, then I think it becomes increasingly difficult. Ask me again at the next international break.

Alfred Johansson has gone through a major transformation in his time at Motherwell

Fancy it? I will put the cones out if you pick the team! 😍😍😍

To me we’d need minimum 8 points by end of November

Nope &. Nope

I am in the backing manager camp. Yes it's not good just now but I am not at stage where we need a change. Look at hibs, aint exactly worked for them. I will look at things come end of November. As I have said on other posts AJ team selections and positions definitely need improved but players also have a responsibility, the cheap goals and basic errors aren't anything AJ can be held accountable for. We shall see how it pans out but I don't think changing manager just now is the right route to go down but everyone has their own opinion

Buddies and hibees online probably the same

Still yer big team then.

Can't be bothered looking back, but we're you as keen as this to get rid of the other managers or are you just getting in early so you can say I told you so.

Aye we are a soft touch for loosing cheap goals the now.

Genuine question for people backing the manager ( u know who u are ) if the results & the standard continues….. how long before u realistically turn? (for the record I don’t see him turning it but I’m genuinely interested in how long)

Hearts forum posts are more or less a mirror to here. Football fans eh? Which club has not had a crisis so far? Maybe we should all call it a day and save our sanity and lower our blood pressure..

Poor AJ got no luck at all. Suddenly we will be expected to beat Hearts 🤣🤣

Hard to believe it's that close - hadn't realised it was 13 goals after 9 games - amazing how the memory works. I think we went on to concede 4 goals in the following 19 games - now that would be a pattern worth pursing. 100% need to learn to shut up shop - step 1 be clear who you're back 4 should be. Step 2 - rest of team need to keep the ball and themselves moving

He was angry as we all were, we scored 2 well worked goals and lost 3 terrible goals, it wasnt even good build up play from killie.

Well Hearts got an absolute SPANKING!!!!!!!!!!!!

💯

Them shipping 7 goals today is promising. It’s the only positive I can think of so far. I’m not feeling any better from yesterday …. Utter disillusionment oozing from my pores

I'm not even close to fearing the worst at this point, but we do need to get the defence better organised. We have conceded 16 league goals this season, and 13 league goals at the same point last season. So there is some tightening up required, but as always in football, it's small margins. It was always a tall order to replace the Rolls Royce that is Welsh, but I still think the loss of Slattery is hurting us too as he was often the man to shut down the opposition in midfield before anything developed. We need someone else to step up and take all those yellow cards.

Knowing our luck the Hearts fans will demand a performance and we are the kind of charitable team that will donate them 3 points, don't have a ticket for this game yet and don't know if I can be arsed to try might just watch the game on the box instead, really hoping we can turn the corner but just don't see it yet

6-1 now a few mins into the 2nd half. Maybe Hearts defence is as bad as ours. MJC do you want to revise your prediction to 9-7 to them ?

Not sure if McGinn will help when he gets back or if he will be a season too far. I feel for SOD, There’s no reason we should be playing him at centre back. We need to start pairing 2 of the 3 centre backs we have available at the moment. . At right back we either play SOD or Johnny. As Soon as Oscar is ready we put him in beside Fadinger. I also think Thor deserves a chance to see if he can do anything up front. Longelo and JT booth need a good kick up the arse. our work rate on and off the ball needs to increase significantly. At the end of games last season, players looked like they had put all of their energy into the game, not so much this season. then of course, we have to cut out the stupid errors right now. While we have been struggling we would be in a better position had we not made so many individual errors which have all cost us points.

Hearts getting battered 4 nil by Celtic and it's not even half time. Maybe hope for us Sunday.

Sundays opponents currently getting their arses handed to them at Parkheed. 4-0 and it's no even half time yet.
