What do folk think about someone like Nisbet on loan?

I've seen Motherwell teams deservedly beat Celtic and I've seen us scrape through...I've never seen us batter them from minute 1 to minute 90. Incredible performance, unbelievable

With Rangers, Celtic or both definitely dropping points this is a big game for us and a win could be potentially huge. St. Mirren are a bit of a bogey team for us, we've not beaten them in 2025, and they always make it tough and I wouldn't expect anything different this time. However this team just looks like they don't give a fuck who they are playing and our home performances have been excellent minus one half against Falkirk. Like I said ending the year on 36 points would be massive.

I watched Welsh, who was on the park at the end of the game. He shook the hands with every Celtic player as they trudged off, a few hugs as well. As soon as they were gone he turned to us in the main stand and fist pumped. He looked every bit as happy as me. His face definitely screamed “get it up them” I don’t see him going back there

Last night was an eye opener. rangers will be looking back on Saturday now and thinking they did very well to beat us. I actually thought Nancy would do a job for celtic, but their performance last night was as poor as anything a Russell Martin Rangers team produced. Turmoil ahead for Celtic I suspect, which can only be good for us and the league as a whole. Imagine if Celtic rage-recalled Welsh from his loan? 😝

I don’t agree with Tam on everything but love his passion and exposure he gives the club. However the wee diddy stuff. He normally prefixes it with “so called” but people don’t notice that bit. It’s not good to hear. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking forward to the next time we play Celtic and their manager (whoever that might be) says, 'we will have to be at our best and Motherwell will have to have an off day if we are to get anything from the game'

Listening across tv and radio last night not one of the pundits had anything but good words for us and I didn’t hear anything about us being lucky against a poor Celtic team.

Very difficult game, SR knows how to set up a team not to lose, they’re a team we’ve failed to beat this season and last night they could have walked away from Ibrox with a point. That said hopefully we can get the 3 points but it won’t be easy.

We've said before that we've been playing reminiscent of an old firm team v others in the league. That last night was like a team routinely pumping Celtic in Europe.

Exactly. In the last ten years we’ve seen us lose every possible way to them. 7-0, numerous 4-0 losses, two cup final defeats without laying a glove on them. Then all the last minute sickeners. 2-0 then 3-2 up only to lose 4-3 with the last kick of the ball. We score a last minute equaliser and they run straight up the park and score again. 2-1 up at Parkhead a few months back and relatively comfortable, lose 3-2 in the dying minutes. Even the one and only time we came close to beating them in the last decade we were denied by a dodgy late penalty for them to sneak a 1-1 draw. Last night was a long time coming and I will certainly dine out on it for a long time to come:

Seriously???? I've lived every bloody day of those 10 years, 35 games , 30 losses, thinking Id never live long enough to ever see us beat them again. For me its felt like an eternity , like a never ending prison sentence.

This is the kind of game we need to win to keep up our push in the top 4.

Great night last night but one ‘downside’ is I made the mistake of tuning into Off the Ball on Radio Scotland after the game. Tam Cowan couldn’t even let himself or the listeners enjoy the result without the age old nonsense about “we’ll be lucky to keep JBA to the end of the season, we’re only a wee club, much bigger clubs will be looking at our manager and our players” and so on. Lighten up ffs. I’ve no doubt of Tam’s love for the club but he is one of the biggest culprits of this “we’re only a wee diddy team punching way above our weight” especially seeing as he’s probably the most high profile Motherwell fan out there certainly the one with the biggest platform. That sort of nonsense is why we went more than a decade without beating Celtic as it drips into the club and numerous players, managers and staff buy into it. Fortunately Jens simply focusses on us as a team and doesn’t get caught up in the cliched tiresome rhetoric that so many before him have done so. And Tam Cowan really isn’t funny. His patter is pretty shite imo.

Quite. The only thing I was surprised about was hearing it's 10 years since we last beat them, really didn't feel that long.

The manager is absolutely brilliant in everything he does,what an appointment he's turned out to be and it just shows you don't need to be part of the managerial merry go round in scotland and need someone that knows the league etc,you just need a guy that knows what there doing and Jen's has that for sure,it also highlights how duffers like kettlewell are conning a living out the game.

Going on previous seasons, we are safe now

If we can get a striker in that can actually score, why not

Any kind of win will be very much appreciated. St Mirren got the better of us in the semifinal but we would be foolish to get wrapped up in any thought of revenge. We simply have to concentrate on finding a way to beat them for our own benefit now. The past is in the past and there is nothing we can do about it beyond learning from it and using that knowledge to our advantage. They will undoubtedly have a plan for us on Saturday and should prepare accordingly. I am confident that JBA will be ready both with a gameplan and a few ideas to mix things up should they be required. Here's hoping we can start 2026 with another win to keep the feel-good feeling going. I think we can do it, though it will undoubtedly be hard fought.

If say that they'd have to fight to get back into a winning team, but we know fine well that JBA is making 5 changes on Saturday. 😄

Only 7 points from safety! 🧡❤️🧡

If we can stay close enough to be one of the official chasers, it's going to be a fun second half of the season. Close to zero chance of winning the league, but I'm going to predict we don't finish in a relegation spot.

Great to have a difficult decision picking the Motm they are all playing great football, I went for Just..

The manager

Welsh and JT back. And we owe them. We are pumping them. 3-0 Motherwell.
