Hopefully we'll see 2 new central defenders and a defensive midfielder (a No 6 to some) arrive in the next week or so to make us more solid. Hearts had 19 shots to our 9 yesterday (9 against 3 on target). Those figures should make us sit up and take notice. In fairness then Ward will have, justifiably, expected better protection from those in front of him. He should start next next week to give him a chance to redeem himself. In truth, both he and Oxborough would appear to be run of the mill keepers.

Your right too that often people criticise individuals for errors and it could be hurtful. Although allowed an opinion it's not always measured and as you pointed out about the posting from GK. He feels bad about events. Think people frustrated at loosing a 3 goal lead and errors pointed out.

Wasn't particularly talking about on here - elsewhere on social media

I was mate 👍 I know what it’s like though and I know I’m not funny 🤣 my point is even folk who have football experience talk nonsense and he’s right that everyone can have an opinion but I just think when they go online with faceless accounts and batter a player who is just trying to be decent is pathetic behaviour. i agree also that ward has been doing ok and did make a number of great saves yesterday. He’s another one who has came on a tonne under JBA

Think Mio was being funny, no need to spit the dummy...I think Ward deserves another shot to see if he can turn it around, bar yesterday he's been fine.

You are quite right and I apologise for my hurty words. You are also right about football experience, Kris Boyd has football experience and he’s a great guy, knows exactly what he’s talking about and is highly educated in his footballing opinions. No one could possibly say he is a bellend.

for 60 min we had one of the best team performance I've ever seen from a Motherwell team. An absolutely joy to watch. Just may not be with us for long, top class player and getting better every game.

Another draw. 0-0

Commenting on players tweets is loser behavior.

I think we’re looking forward to welcoming back a former manager and beating his team. A big home crowd for sure. COYW

I was talking about balmer.

Balmer started the problem for the first goal by getting his pass intercepted. Just could have reacted quicker to close down Milne. McGinn could have done better at the second by stepping up earlier, and could have got back in quicker, and yes, the goalie could do better for all goals. Any goal conceded is usually down to more than one player not being as effective as they could have been. Losing a 3 goal lead is sore, but we are still early days and work in progress. For what it’s worth, I don’t think either goalie is as good as I’d like.

Sold two goals very cheaply and we dropped points after being 3-0 up. Ù I think is is fair to leval criticism at the keeper, it's a forum of differing views after all .

Yeah they are - but it's in the delivery. Ward doesn't deserve some of the comments he's had in my view - apparently he's to go and Ox back in - predictable.

People are allowed an opinion whether the player apologised or not. Speak for yourself. We are not all bellends. And some people have educated opinion. Some have football experience. It's fine to say you are one though. But don't make generalisation.

Just par for the course for some of our support unfortunately - every team has them no doubt

Some Hearts fans on the Motherwell Facebook page saying that Just got clapped off the park by some of their supporters

The pass to set up the 3rd goal was just outstanding

I’d saw that, sometimes I just despair at the amount of bellends taking a pop at him directly. I think it’s one thing on a fans forum like this where we are all basically bellends who haven’t a clue 🤣 having an opinion …. but if the guy is decent enough to go on social media and praise the fans and put his hands up yet folk still take a pop at him….. it’s an absolute fkn riddy!!!

Can we please start negotiating a new contract for eli just already,what a find he looks to be for us.

The keeper was on twitter basically holding his hands up, felt a bit for him and although he cost us two goals he did bring out an outstanding save to stop them getting a 4th.

Tough being a goalkeeper. You stay at no 1 until you make a mistakes. If there's a equally good keeper in the wings it costs you your place. We'll our keeper made basic errors leading to two goals and dropped points . Ox next week please or what's the point of a second goalie apart for injury cover.

I was on a plane and so my first reaction was 3-3, looks like great game. Then the disappointment when I saw we had been 3 up but like many people I said before game I’d be happy with a point. As Grizzly pointed out, we still haven’t been beaten. by all accounts we are playing some lovely football which has definitely had an effect on the support. So considering where we are with the squad and new manager things are looking rosy. If most of the other teams stick with the usual dour SPFL tactics we should fair pretty well. Even if we finish 7th or 8th it seems like it will be a lot more enjoyable than it has been these previous years watching us finish there.
