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.

I didn't make it along today, but I'm going to look beyond how the game went and look at the final result. A point at Tynecastle is a good point. Scoring 3 goals at any away ground is a good haul. This could be a very memorable season. We seem to be on to something. I have high hopes for this season.

We have been crying out for a new style for years and we now have a guy who i think is doing great so far and we are still unbeaten. There are going to be bumps along the way but we are being entertained and enjoying going to games which wasn't the case under a certain manager who returns next week. 300 new season ticket holders says it all JB still assessing the squad so I fully expect more faces in soon. Yes losing a 3-0 lead is so frustrating but we move on and with our next run of fixtures looking decent on paper then hopefully we can start getting wins and keeping up the feelgood factor. COYW

O’Donnell was very good again

Just was very good again. Thought the much maligned O'Donnell had a solid game again also.

I didn't think the defence were that bad today. NO defence will go to Tynecastle and stop Hearts creating some chances, our problem was our last line of defence i.e the keeper didn't do what we should expect.

As soon as the keeper gifted the second goal panic set in and also gave Hearts the impetus they needed but we still assisted them with a gift 3rd. We shot ourselves in the foot but a number of Hearts fans on social media saying that is the best Motherwell team they've seen in years and that they were fortunate which they were.

Just watched the TV highlights too, which didn't do justice to our first half performance. Yes, Hearts' 2nd goal was a close call, according to VAR lines. I was however alarmed by the quality of our defending at times. If we want to turn our good play into points this does need addressed in the next 10 days or so.

It's exciting alright however that exciting will soon turn to frustration pretty quickly. For me I love it simply because I was entertained and I can come away from a game like that knowing I am witnessing something special. But we need to start picking up points hopefully soon with some new faces at the back that have played this way before just to calm things down a bit. My jury is out on Ward very very shaky to me just makes me nervous every time he has the ball. Anyway roll on next week!

Just watched the Sportscene highlights Hesrts 2nd goal was onside but it was by millimetres only according to the VAR lines, our defenders right foot playing him on.. We failed to mange the last 30 mins and see out the game, bad defenfing for Hearts 1st goal and shocking goal keeping from Ward for goals 2 and 3.

Very very true. Hopefully a very decent crowd next weekend

Looked like a bit of a half-hearted effort at saving the second as he thought it was offside.

Eli Just produced the best individual performance of ours at Tynecastle since McCormack (and porter) ran riot there in the cup game years ago
