When I was watching the Aberdeen game I didn't know it was a plastic pitch until the commentator mentioned it. Killie and Livis pitches are abysmal in comparison. Esp Kilmarnocks it looks like an end cut from Carpetwise

We will struggle to score against that Kilmarnock team. As usual when one of the OF go out before the semis we fuck up a winable tie.

St Mirren will do OK this season, were they that much better than us ?

What's the size of the St Mirren crowd got to do with the point ... The point was historically, every time we get a big support turning out, we invariably fail to deliver.

I'm not so sure , sure we were honking today yet one of the supposed better teams in the league creates one effort against us even when we played so badly. We will play better and far too early to say the seasons gonna be a long hard one.

What pisses me off is we have 1400 fans there and again for the hundredth time at least in my time supporting them they let a big crowd down. If we'd gor a result we have got a carry over in attendance for the Kilmarnock game. As it is it will be the same bloody 4000 diehards. We never carry momentum as soon as it looks like building we serve up shite like today.

It is when we are utter shite

The BBC commentary are absolutely damning in their assessment of us. They are actually struggling not to say Mugabi is shite. The most damning comment " Motherwell are at their worst when under no pressure"

Well we have done but we do tend to lose these types more than we win them.

Why when we take big crowds do we always fuck up. Early days in the game but St Mirren are a hard nut to crack down there. I'd take a draw and penalties now. 🫣

I think if we score first we could rattle them. We have a piss poor cup record against them that said our home record against Hibs was piss poor until Saturday. I get the nagging feeling St Mirren flatter to deceive. All the team need to be on their toes but if we score first I think we could give them a hard time. Fingers crossed.

If he'd been in 90 mins I'd consider him but a 90 minute performance it's Slattery for me. For a twenty minute performance it's Biereth.

Anyone else think Biereth playing style looks like Henrik OJama

I don't agree , first half we didn't do much but we were never in any bother. Second half we played better and controlled the game and played some neat football at times. Hibs first effort on goal was on 90 minutes , if that's us not playing well I'll take it.

How thick do our fans need to be that they need told every time he speaks.

Defensively they are. Suspect.

My thoughts exactly , Hibs will need to score in Switzerland because it's not beyond them to put two past Hibs. Hibs are bang average but our defence need to be on their game.

See Dundee are interested in signing Sean Goss.

Is anyone else bored to tears with the poverty line .. we fuckin know. can he just not say no more at the moment ffs.

We have a dreadful record against Hibs at Motherwell in the last 5/6 seasons. I got a feeling another draw on the cards. We have lost 5 of our last 9 at home to Hibs and only beat them twice.

Very Harsh. , We were worth our point , one bit of slack defending cost us. Bair did a decent job, thought Slattery was excellent. Mugabi unusually never put a foot wrong. If anyone thinks we were piss poor you are in for a hell of a season cos we will play alot worse than we did today

Of course that arent, that was my entire point. There was nothing to suggest Dan Casey would turn out as well as it did so the pile on and condemnation of Theo Bair by many of our supporters is rather strange. I could agree perhaps a two year contract is generous but can you imagine if he turns out as well as Casey and and we'd signed him on a year deal only the bitching would be off the scale. Bottom line is doesnt matter a fuck what any players history is when the come to us, their history is no guarantee, of failure or success, we take our chance and hope for the best.

Dan Casey ; "He had played nearly 100 games in the Irish league by the age of 23. In his second season, he was part of a team that finished 3rd in the league. He also represented Ireland at youth level." I stand by my assertion Casey has done next to fuck all when we signed him. Tons of guys represent their country at youth level and turn out pish and are never seen again. Also depends how highly you rate the Irish League and how highly you rate the USL Championship, second Tier of US football. He wasn't on his 5th club by the age of 25 because he was a sure bet. We will just need to agree to differ.

Can you tell us a signing we have made in the last three years that has enthused you ... 99% of the time we know fuck all about our signings because that's the market we operate in. When we signed Casey from America he had done fuck all of note now he's the people's hero. We signed Tierney under the banner of one of the Irish Leagues best young prospects and he's rampantly average. We signed Stuart McKinstry and half our support were wetting themselves with excitement and he was bang average at best. We signed Moult and again half the fans were creaming their pants, he wasn't worth a fuck. So the moral of all of this. Getting excited about a signing is pointless because they could turn out to be shite. Equally there is no point getting depressed as they could turn out to be decent.

Imagine you are 23 years old 3000 miles from home and you get a new job and everyone connected to the new company goes on social media to say you are shite....give guy a break for fuck sake. SK has said he needs developed and at 23 years old he sees something he can develop. Let's also be realistic how difficult would it be to shine / perform in the St Johnstone team of the last two years.
