  1. For me the summer recruitment is the main reason why were in the trouble were in,we brought in zero quality and robinsons master plan of only strenghthening the bench has really backfired,what message did that send out too regular starters if we were only looking too strenghthen the bench,that there place in the first wasn't in jeopardy no matter what and now that nobody in the first team is playing that well,we don't have any real options from the bench as we're stuck with a lot of dross signed over the summer.

  2. We were one dimensional last season but we got away with it for the most part as we were a team with a lot of new signings and everything was fresh and up until he left moult could produce a bit of magic out of nothing.this season we have been well and trully sussed by every opposition,we have next too no options from the bench,due too our shamblolic recruitment policy over the summer.we badly needed some new signings that could go straight into the first and freshen things up and help too push us on and build on what was a really good season last season.we got too 2 cup finals and sold kipre for a big sum and also keep the vast majority of last season squad but we have seriously gone backwards in such a short space of time.our home form is a real concern,one point from accies,livingston and st johnstone is simply not good enough and I wouldn't bank on us picking up many points away from home this season.for me nothing will change under robinson,he's a one trick pony, that is sticking by tactics that are failing more by each passing game,the players have been piss poor and need too take there share of the blame but right now the only obvious solution too get us out of the mess were in,is too change the manager.

  3. I thought we would see a change of approach against livingston and it never happened,the performance that day was up there with the worst ive ever seen from a motherwell team,it was that bad,it was actually a step below the hoofball we have had too endure this season.stjohnstone like us are struggling and lost heavily last time out so they should be there for the taking but rather than going for it,I think we will stick too the usual of putting 11 guys on the park in a formation thats failing and hoping something happens.if we go and put in another shocker of a performance at home,then questions really will need too be asked of robinson.

  4. I've seen quite a few of the under 20s games over the last year or so and I totally agree what's been said about maguire and donnolly,maguire showed a lot more towards the end of last season than donnolly has in the first team,the same argument could be made when comparing turnbull and gorrin and livingstone and taylor sinclair.im not saying everything would be rosey if these youngsters were in the first team but it really does highlight just how bad our recruitment was over the summer,we never strenghtened the starting line up,robinsons plan was too improve our options from the bench and other than Johnson we have failed in that aspect but yet players who star for the under 20s seem too be further away from the first team than ever right now.

  5. I would like too see us go 4-4-2 for this,get down the wings and get balls into the box for our strikers too go and attack rather than have them constantly battling with centre half outside the box by punting high balls all the time.for as poor as we have been lately,I actually think we will win this by a couple provided we shake things up on our approach to the game,if we don't and we want to get ourselves involved in a scrap then I can see a similar outcome to the accies game.

  6. We got too 2 cup finals and sold a player for about a million but yet we haven't remotely kicked on,we have gone back the way,our approach too the summer transfer window was embarrassing,robinson has been tactically sussed and our dreadful options from the bench means we can change very little.were awful too watch and were now stuck in a bit of a rut.something has to change sooner rather than later and for me that has too be the manager.

  7. Robinson done really well last summer when he had a big rebuilding job on his hands,bringing in the likes of carson,kipre and dunne but the approach to this season was baffling,for a manager too just focus on strengthening his bench is crazy and he failed to even do that,we are no better off for having gorrin,sammon and taylor-sinclair in our squad.

  8. As much as I love hartley and his no nonsense attitude,his comments here were unwise,you can be sure thomson will have it in for him before a ball is even kicked,he should be concentrating on his own game and not get involved in stuff that the media is going too jump all over,if were on the wrong end of the scoreline he's going too make himself look foolish,but having said that I hope we get tore right in about this lot on sunday.
