Yes

Right , so it's the season after this one, we lose a place?

Totally agree, I just would like to get into Europe for the money and potential trip, but you're right , it's just a carve up for real, man city etc...thank God for teams like bodo glimt

If results stay the way they are this afternoon then a win tonight all but secures our top 6 place and no relegation. As Aberdeen can only get a maximum of 49 points, Dundee untd could get 50, but we are currently 31 goals better off so they are not catching us.

Cheers pal, that was what I reckoned also.

Getting beat 2-1 at HT now too. Not that I take any pleasure from that as it’s just another reminder that they are fucking rotten and we blew it in true Motherwell Cup tie fashion the other night.

Thats how i read it, it either of the ugly sisters win the cup, 3rd will get EL Q3, and 4th and 5th will get Conf L Q2.

Aberdeen down to 10 men for DOGSO. Dundee score the penalty. Ha and feckin ha.

So 5 teams qualify this year? If scottish cup winners are old firm then 5th place gets into europe?

Falkirk tearing it up against Hearts today. Playing very well. whatever happens and if the top 6 finishes with the teams as of now….. it’ll be a phenomenal end to the season. Football wise us, Falkirk and Hibs are better football sides and will be taking points off of the current top 3.

I'd say we were about 40/60 to finish top 3. All depends on our away form.

The thing that annoys me most about the Champions League is teams that win their domestic title but have to enter the competition at qualifying rounds. Meanwhile, other teams that finish 2nd or 3rd enter later in the competition. I know the competition has been dead an buried as a proper Cup since the big teams ganged up and decided getting knocked out in a early round wasn't fair to them (or their bank balance), but they could at least have all the Champions qualify automatically and enter at the same stage. I used to really enjoy the European Cup when it was 2-leg straight knock out. as it felt like a genuine competition. Now it's just yet another league that's manufactured to ensure the big teams win and are further enriched. I barely watch any of the games these days.

Same for me, Hearts win to stop Falkirk gaining momentum. If we look after ourselves then hopefully 3 above us might drop points plus old firm play each other next Sunday

I agree, if Falkirk win and we win, anything is possible. I see and hear a lot of our fans this season becoming more positive which is brilliant and refreshing from the traditional doom and gloom merchants.

My ambitions are more modest. A Hearts win. We won't finish in the top 3.

Definitely. Better to dream of catching than worry about being caught.

Some of the absolute sh1te on social media from st Mirren fans (also registered blue tick club page) is utterly pathetic. Such a weirdo club. i hope we go out there and absolutely fkn hump them…. Cmon the Well

I agree

What do we want from Hearts v Falkirk. Stick or twist? I am going all in for a Falkirk win. The potential of being 7 points behind Hearts with a game in hand would be pretty exciting. Away victories for both Falkirk and Motherwell is a very tough ask right enough.

I think this is what he'll go with. I don't know what to think of Slattery in the left sided midfield role he keeps playing him in he picks up some good areas but his pass selection baffles me at times. I kind of hope to see Nicholson get a run in that role but from the right side as I feel from the very limited amount we've seen of him he looks a very good player it's a shame he's been injured so much.

There's a post on our Facebook page that has a link to St Mirren, who are now selling 'additional' digital tickets to Motherwell fans. Mibbe 40 or so remaining.

How do you buy tickets for this game?

Next season is the final season of Scotland having 5 in Europe it's the season after it drops to 4. Champions enter CL Play off round 2nd enters - CL QR2 3rd/Cup winners - EL P/O round 4th/3RD if team outside Celtic/Rangers win the cup- EL QR2 5th/4th if team outside Celtic/Rangers win the cup - ECL QR2 Realistically the coefficent is gubbed because This season Celtic couldn't beat Kairat Almaty, Hibs didn't see out win v Legia, Rangers haven't been as good as they normally are in the EL. Aberdeen got a terrible draw in the ECL realistically should have beat Noah but it wouldn't have made much difference and Dundee Utd should have beat Rapid Vienna at a minimum after going 2-0 up. Hearts didn't beat petroclub to advance in conference league last season. Next season we realistically need every team that Qualify for Europe to make it into the group stage and then at least 3/5 to make into the KO rounds of their competitions. I think next season should us, Hearts and Hibs keep our squads together it will probably be the strongest group of teams we've had enter Europe for a while.

Were gonna have to settle for winning the cknference league next year to get the co efficient fixed
