Player who passed to Bair was off, Miller I think

I think too many of them work in "day jobs" where they don't have to explain or account for their decisions, so they can't ever admit to making mistakes.

You'd like to think that a top-flight manager would consider that before signing a player on a PCA without seeing them perform on their initial loan spell first, but I guess it's a bit too late for that now. Tl;dr - all evidence points to Halliday being past it at this level, yet we've signed him anyway.

Not overly impressed by Rooney

What have we done to deserve this This means 7 yellow cards for seemingly innocuous challenges for us, 0 given to St J for committing several two footed challenges. If we're really lucky 2 Saints players will collide in to each other and he'll book our entire coaching staff

The biggest problem about being a ref is that the people smart enough to be good ones are smart enough to never to be one in the current environment.

Thats my argument. You could question how competetive we were last night. Certainly first half. Not advocating a team full of youngsters but 1 or 2 eagre to please could be justified, I think.

Conflicting issues here. For us there's nothing at stake, bar professional pride and finishing the season on a high for the fans. Maybe give some youngsters a bit of gametime? Against that there's a need to stay competitive and fulfil the fixture properly, with sporting integrity. SK and SF will know individual players' frame of mind and yes there's the issue of not picking those who are moving on. For my part I hope we go out to win the game, starting with our strongest line up. .

Thats a shame. Would have liked to have had him on board. Definitely the type of defender we should be going for imho.

Slim pickings as nobody had a great game. Miller and Nicholson were decent but I went for Paton as he improved us second half when he came on and tried to speed the game up a bit.

I think he and Craig Napier are probably the worst 2 Ive seen this season. Edit: Although Collum was absolutely honking in the second half of the last Aberdeen home game.

Is that not an argument for only fielding contracted players next Sunday. That could include a few youngsters eagre to impress? Personally Id love to see Luca Ross get a free hit to see what he can do.

Just getting round to posting as it was a late one getting back to Ayrshire last night. Shoulda probably stayed at home. Game had that end of season feel to it from both teams. Not much in it for the first 30 mins. Hibs had more possession, we created the better chances. Kelly had nothing to do until Boyles 2 efforts. The game changes on the penalty decision and for the life of me I cant understand how the ref can give that. SOD is so close to the player playing the ball and his hand is in an entirely natural position. Its just wrong. Even with the new rules. After that they got their heads up and started causing us more problems. The second and third goals are the kind of thing we have been giving away all season and so disappointing we cant seem to find a way of changing that. We did play some decent football second half. Bringing Paton on for Halliday helped as the game was bypassing him again. He really needs to consider whether he has any top flight football in him next season. Id like to see the Bair goal again. It was a smart finish and I wasnt sure which player was flagged offside or whether they were even active. That might have made a difference with 25 to go, but it wasnt to be. The game petered out after that and we ultimately got what we deserved for not being at it in the first half. Big changes required in the close season. Hope the manager has his list of targets ready to go as we are gonna need fresh faces if we want to improve on this season.

As of this morning; Live the Dream is now open to all Motherwell supporters. This is your chance to play at Fir Park next Friday night. You can secure your space now by visiting our EventBrite page here.

That’s right u pick and chose yer games just think about the rubbish we have watched all season . Big rebuild required let’s see if the manager can build a team with his selection of players , i see already Rooney has signed for Robinson

Apologies. He was Stevie O'Reilly brutal in the games he covered.

That assessment pretty much covers all of the referees in Scotland.

Colin Steven is the referee for this one, he was brutal in the two matches he covered this season.

I'd bring back Davor and Paton, in some formation, for this one as we're going to need bite, energy and aggression in midfield. Qualities that were sadly lacking last night. They might not be the best team in the league but the farmers will be up for this one. We must match that spirit.

The shite one that beat Livi 4-1 and County 5-1?

Oddly Gent was pretty good defensively last night but his crossing was woeful instead. Nicholson was busy without doing too much. Miller probably our best player last night.

Biereth moving to Strum Graz, how is that Kettlewells fault ffs, he has developed Bair, and to some extent Spittal their goals have kept us up this year, brought in Vale and Gent who have been great so SK has done very well. Other players like Souare, Obilye, Wilkinson etc were no doubt short term low cost, low risk punts to the club so he can't be blamed for those not working out.

Just the usual shite one ☺

According to Historical Football Kits, we wore white ones with a reversed jersey: http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Scottish_Football_League/Motherwell/Motherwell-change.htm

Can't argue pal, major overhaul needed and SK needs to get this transfer window right.
