One of the few games we’ve deserved to lose tbh

He’s only himself to blame

I don’t think we’ve offered much in the first half - we look disjointed and not really got going We could do with getting a grip on midfield and get into our flow

He did foul but clearly fell - why did var not step in ?

We’ve had a couple of very tough games in the last week - can see why there’s some changes fingers crossed

This is a new era for us as fans, previously after winning a run of games we simply knew a loss would come. This season there's only been 1 game we deserved to lose and we did. At the back of my mind I know we might lose here or there but the facts are clear and hard not to expect to win - particularly given we've already won 3x and drawn with them. Let's go win the cup tie - 'well deserved.

Can’t beat a canny bag….

Appreciate there is bias in my view but it could really help Jens to stick around for a 2nd season. Like players a manager can have a great season but if he can have consecutive seasons this further proves it's not a purple patch and will attract attention from the big boys. Id love him to stay and can only dream of what a second season could achieve - a bit like sir Alex back in the 80s. Then move on to the Premiership or Europe to prove what he's got. Keeping the gaffer + most of current squad would continue the wonderful entertainment. Be wonderful to keep this dream alive and embed into our core what we're doing so the next mgr whoever/whenever could continue the journey.

The ref frustrated me on the basis there's a general understanding that the OF are far superior to everyone else and therefore allowed the benefit of the doubt. Had it been Livingston I think they'd have been booked far earlier for some of their challenges. Similarly he booked Just for his reaction to the penalty claim - which is reasonable. However as others have mentioned there were so many similar reactions from Rangers players that were unpunished. The issue is the OF entitlement - they have the bigger crowds, the money, the media etc in their pocket, so much bias its disgusting. I don't think the ref was deliberately favouring them more that the environment and broader pressure mentioned creates a bias which really is hard to swallow. The bitter sweet though was big Welsh taking the goal like a CF . What joy, in someways that made everything else that maddened me last night very worthwhile.

I thought we played well first half but didn’t take our chances - which is often ominous . 2nd half they had more of the ball but we still looked dangerous . Not sure it had to be a straight red but easy for ref to give it once var called him over. how fitting that Welsh comes back and gets his first goal - what a nice moment . hearts and Motherwell have never gotten on but suspect they’ll be over the moon with us .

Not our night - ref has given them soooo much poor tackle by fadinger but would a rangers player be sent off - doubt it

Go for a shower and clean yourself from such filth

I still have the fear every game, been waiting for months to get brought down to earth. But been living the dream and will keep as least one eye open tonight,

Dunfermline v Motherwell sounds so much better fingers crossed.

This in fairness could be just what's needed . A full week before the cup game.

Sam Nicholson - welcome back , good to see him recovered

What a time to be a Well fan . Some fabulous footy being played - couple of great goals and could have /should have been more . Be good to get a 3rd and bring on some subs for final 30 mins

agree - what a time to be a Well fan. The most entertaining football in most of our living memories , fabulous league record and fingers crossed for another cup run. We're only 12 points away from securing 4th in the league. Keep the good times rolling.

2-0 up far from at our best . Lovely finish

Missing physical present of Walsh in defence today

Boom That was beautiful

That must be a baw hair

Mio - I’m with you big time on this one. first of all - he should shut his mouth and have nothing to say about any Motherwell players value - he’s a player not our ceo . Know your place type thing . If referencing other clubs players being with 6.5m etc , it would have been so much easier to say - this is a 22 year old international player here at FP who’s the leagues top scorer . Now if others are worth 6M then be interesting to see how much clubs would pay for the top scorer . in all honesty it’s passed the time Halliday moved to his next role , either as a pundit or go play at Patrick or similar . I know he means well but I don’t really see him as promoting us, more himself and being dragged into the media OF that so many others have lived off for donkeys years

of course we don't - certainly not in the Scottish medias view We should simply pi55 our pants with happiness and glee just for one of our players to be considered by the mighty Glasgow (Insert either of Old Firm here)

Yes I believe the rule is 6 at any given time and no more than 2 from other SPL clubs
