Stevenson is despised at hearts. Says a lot

Ended up following the game on twitter in Di Maggios in EK. Let out a massive cheer when the tweet came up - got a few looks!!
My Aberdeen mates have been mixed in reaction. One was seething, but the other said we deserved it for have a much better run in than the dons, who have only won twice since the league cup final.

He looks like action man - move like him too.

Just let folk run onto the park. I seen two adults in that pitch invasion - the rest looked about 10. They are harming no one and to fine the club over it is even daft.
-
Aye either or! But if we had a fast attacking midfielder we would not have these sticky 30min arse to the wall sessions as we would have an out ball to link to the attack.
Still as I said it shows we are a very good team in that we win when playing bad. Christ Arsenal made a career of it years ago!

We didn't deserve that in a million years. We miss Nicky Law so much. We have no one in the middle who has any pace to drive at opponents.
Still to play bad and win shows you the grit and determination of the team.

Inverness since Yogi has taken over have gone from a sitting well ahead in 2nd to a team that can't buy a win and are miles of the pace. I say we just play to our strengths and we should win quite easily and that sets us up perfectly for the Aberdeen game.
Also I think we have the advantage of having a bit of pressure taken off us and this may help the players.

I hate st mirren - would love them to go down.

It would not take much to compete with Celtic. They are not actually that good.
-
Craig Gordon looking for a club. If his injury problems are behind ( big if ) then he would be an amazing signing.
Might end up back in England though.

grinding out wins is the one thing we're very good at.

I've given up predicting our scores but what i will say is that we've 4 winnable games on the trot and we're at our most dangerous when we're partypoopers and we're out to get Aberdeen for 2nd spot.
You should just give up full stop.

Humphrey was no world beater but he had every team in the land double up on him which let our attackers have lots more room. He was key to how our team played.

If we qualify for Europe it means we will have finished higher up the league which means more prize money. We will have won more games which is good for fans and finally we will maybe increased the value of our players with regards to transfer fees. It's a win win win!

Whistles were chronic. I'm convinced it caused confusion to the loss of our first goal from watching the highlights.
-
I can't believe the abuse Hollis gets. I still maintain he has done very little wrong in a Motherwell Jersey.
Instead if ripping into him how about looking at the players in front of him who are allowing the goal chances to happen.
I don't see a series of posts asking for McManus or Hutchinson to leave...
To me it's like Hollis has become the fall guy for any bad result.
-
All you are doing by not going is punishing Motherwell, but on the flip side by boycotting the game you raise awareness of the totally bonkers attitude of modern football. Scottish football stadiums are empty most games so any little bit of atmosphere generated should be embraced not banned.

Having watched Craig Reid in 3 games now he's impressed me and I hope we can sign him long term. He's solid, good in the air and good going forward. Better than Tom Hateley I'd say. Potentially the best right back since Paul Quinn - early days though.
This kind of post does my tits in. You have seen this Reid boy three times and he is instantly better than a right back who played for us over 100 times in one of our best ever teams...

Bad day at the office. Thought Dundee utd were superb. Some real quality and pace. Reminded me of us last season.
As for the people big Gunnar for the first goal. Baws.
-
Will be close, but I can see us losing narrowly. Maybe a 2-1 or something like that.
If we win it pretty much rules out Dundee utd out of the euro race. So it's a huge game for them.
-
kilmarnock, aberdeen, dundee united, hibs and hearts have all gave their young players a chance this season.
there was no way we were going to give anyone a debut today.
You really are a trolling cunt of a boy.

He certainly didn't cover himself in glory for their first goal. It was an outswinging corner to about six or seven yards and he - like the rest of the defence I might add - stood rooted to the spot until the ball hit the back of the net. That was the league cup...
In the league Nielsen undoubtedly cost us crucial points against our closest rivals for second place. Again, that was Aberdeen.
I think we need to look at the bigger picture this season. We have two inexperienced goalkeeper on our books. Hollis is set at first choice and for the first part of the season does a good job. He then gets injured and Gunnar comes in and looks a bit flappy. He then gets injured and we bring in the boy from Dundee who perform really well in his 5 games with us. He leaves and Gunnar is back in.
How many seasons have we had to use 3 different keepers?
The point I am making is that none of them have been in the team long enough to form a strong partnership with the defence which may in turn be the reason for some if the recent mistakes.
Also it's a nonsense to blame the keeper for our current league position and exit from the cups. It's the whole team.

Was the goalie at fault for our league cup defeat to Aberdeen? I wasn't at the game so never seen the goals.

The fact we won three games without playing very well. Went 2-0 up on Celtic only to lose three goals and still fight back for an equaliser. And throw into the mix a hammering from Dundee Utd that could have shattered our confidence really shows the grit and resilience of this team.
Incredible top six performance.
