Unless Vale has picked up an Injury, the decision to omit him tonight is scandalous

Embarrassingly bad goal. This is going to be dreadful…. It has absolutely honkin game written all over it.

Disappointed with that team tonight. For me that’s not a team put out to win a game. hopefully I’ll be proved wrong

I think the best we’ll get on Wednesday is a draw, we are dreadful on that Pitz carpet and losing those two goals on Sunday is a real boot in the sacs. i don’t think a draw or even a narrow defeat will relegate us tho, I think we have enough to finish away from 11th and 12th. I’m disappointed to hear that Paton might be out a while, I think he’s really underrated but it might be a chance to see Nicholson get more time on the park. As for it being a sky match….. wow, what a treat for the nation.

Need to just forget about that second half and the players have to be ready for the Livingston game. Let’s face it todays game isn’t as important as the game on Wed.

Devastating. As always against that shower

They’ve got better and we’ve died a bit. there’s still goals in the game, both defences suspect

Fk it!!

Have to stifle this game and kill it over the next 20mins. We could easily catch that defence on the break with vale and Bair

Absolutely brilliant first half, couldn’t have went better. We could be a couple up. the only player I thought struggled in the first half was Miller and then he does that spin and pass for Spittals sublime finish. just need to stay confident in the second half and concentrate, especially the defence.

Was super confident at the start of the week that we’d get something out of today. That confidence has gone. I think we might struggle.

Pleased SK is staying, I think he was landed with an almost impossible job following the Alexander/Hammell debacle and has done more than I expected. i think he’s built a good backroom team as well and i honestly don’t see the hate he’s had is deserved. Ok there’s been a few poor results and poor individual performances and he’s been a bit loyal to players but it’s Motherwell, let’s face it, It will always be the same. We know as supporters what we’ve signed up for.

What I’d give to watch just one game with those 3 in the modern game and the “first foul is free” rule back in operation. have the 3 of them batter McGregor up in the air would be a joy to see.

Hearts have looked comfortable since their goal. If anyone is scoring again it’s them. On to next week.

SK must have spotted a Hearts weakness at defending long throw ins

SoD ??? For Gent? Wtf?

Good start to the half. We play some decent stuff at times

Cmon Lennon …. What a chance son.

Their winning spree can’t last, they have an average team with a poor manager. They do have an inform striker unfortunately so to win we need someone man marking him catenaccio style. id like to see oxborough thrown in, no harm to Kelly I just think he needs a rest and a reset. This I can’t see happening tho.

I thought we had a number of good performances last night, I agree the players mentioned above and I think in Vale we have a good player and a potentially good partnership with Bair for the rest of the season. i think I’d go for Gent tho as he’s improving every week and for a young lad starting out in the game I see a promising future for him. Always willing to take the ball and willing to get to the line and whip in crosses. Quite good defensively as well. Out of all the loan players we’ve had over the past years he’s one who I do think has potential and we are giving him a good platform to progress.

SK’s loyalty to Liam Kelly is killing us. There was imo a lot of positives in some of our play tonight, some decent performances but defensively we are nervous wrecks and unfortunately it stems from the defenders lack of confidence in our keeper. I’ve never called for him to be dropped as I’d hope he’d turn the corner but it’s not happening and it’s time to get someone in there who has a bit of presence about him.

He certainly didn’t get found out tonight.

I’d take that Oakley all day long instead of certain strikers we have. Completely outfought and out muscled our defence all night. Embarrassing

A deserved defeat. gutted seeing Imrie happy. Wee Lanark h*n

Yeah I think the boy looks a player. I also think Vale looks decent.
