    Or, just hear me out here...

    He puts out the best available players we have, and on occasion, we look like the better team against the opposition, but on other occasions, the opposition looks better than us, and Kettlewell makes some tactical changes as well as personnel changes and uses his know-how to change the game in our favour? 

    I know that's mental, as that would actually involve giving the guy some form of credit for doing his job, but could it possibly be the answer? Could he have "out-coached" the opposition? 

     

    We got a massive break with the penalty but then we've had those decisions against us recently. One thing is clear though. That starting 11 today was never good enough. There was no spark, no invention and we resorted to hoofing the ball forward to Bair who couldn't hold anything up. We were much improved when O'Donnell and Miller came on. It tells me that the squad isn't strong enough. We lose a couple of players to injury and we can't play football.

    You must be raging a Motherwell win and another weekend wasted for you.

    I understand the frustration. That first hour was truly awful. I'm over the moon that we won in the end but we can't rely on coming from behind every week. We have to improve massively over ninety minutes next season.

  3. The pitch is poor but it's also the same for both teams. We're in a rut, low on confidence and lacking in identity and style of play. It's the same old slog week in week out and I can't wait for the season to end. Struggling to justify 400 quid to watch another 20 games of this.

    They are not involved in negotiations

    Add neither should they be. Fan owned or not, divulging potentially sensitive information to the Society would be making details of the negotiations public knowledge basically. I'm more than happy to wait for the details then say yes or no. The one thing that worries me is do we have enough intelligent, level headed members to make an informed and correct choice for the good of the club when the time comes?

  5. Happy with a point in the end but that was a poor watch. Our passing was deplorable all game and at times it's hard to recognise our team as a professional outfit. Devine had a poor game in particular but that's likely to happen with the young lad still making his way in the game. We never looked like seriously troubling them at any time after the first 10 minutes up until our goal - which I never saw coming. Fair play to O'Donnell who made the correct decision at the correct time to get us back in the game. I felt we lost a lot of our attacking impetus when he went off. As I've said before, survival is the main objective this season and we just need to accumulate enough points to limp to the end. That said, this standard won't do next season. Big summer on its way.

    Another meaningless game for Scotland tonight and Liam Kelly still not getting any game time, why does that fud Clarke bother picking him if he's no Intention of playing him.

    I think some are missing the real point of Kelly being there completely. He's there as part of the goalkeeping team, with the sole purpose of keeping a goalkeepers 'union' in the squad. It'll take nothing short of a disaster or injury crisis for Kelly to actually play for Scotland.

    At least we got that time added on at the end....oh wait.

    Someone needs sacked for Saturdays shit show. If i made half as big a mess of my job as those clowns did i would be out the door, So why should they be any different

    If I was as bad at my job as Collum is I'd just stop turning up. The guys become a parody unto himself he's so bad.

  8. I was surprised to see wee Dave on the bench and thought we missed his tenacity in the middle all day. They had the freedom of the midfield and Nicholson was a passenger the whole first half. I jinxed things early on in the game by thinking Collum was having a decent game then he reverted to form and was woeful from our disallowed goal onwards. Aberdeen time wasting and falling over and he simply allowed them to mug him off at every opportunity. That said, we were honking and well off the pace all day. We could have played another 90 and still not have scored.

  9. A power of graft from everyone today but I'm going for Bevis. The big guy takes some stick at times but he was a colossus at the back today. Showed real desire to prevent them scoring. Well done to Kelly also, magnificent double save to keep us in front. 

  10. They look really vulnerable when we get the ball into the final third. It's important we try to start the second half just like we did the first. Get the ball to Vale as he seldom surrenders possession and can make things happen.

    On another note, the gers fan going irate on the stream is absolute gold. 😂
