My grandson's first question - why is my strip different from the first team? Strange decision?

Yeah clearly I'm coming to a time in my life when all my early heroes are passing on - RIP Jim - a silky, very talented footballer.

.............. and Pearson off to India http://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/2016/06/29/pearson-departs-for-india/

3-0 - time to do some gardening

Wasn't Thomas Tony - number 17 (Robbie Leitch).

He was outstanding tonight - thought his composure and reading of the game belied his years - the force is strong in this one. Though the team played really well - Cadden continues to develop and impress too. Big heads up to Craigan and Lasley - keep up the good work.

First time watching the u20's, won't be the last. Great entertainment and the future looks bright. Was Campbell No 6?

Makes a lot of sense that, I often wondered why more managers didn't do it. Remember when Ian St John was manager, he had what is now the away dugout, raised to allow him to see the game from a different perspective.

What was McGhee doing in the stand anyway? LOL and no smart comments along the lines of 'watching the game'

The way I saw it it was the management team and the players who delayed knocking the ball out that contributed to the delay in Josh going off - not the players fault. He indicated to the bench much earlier that he was struggling. All round a good team performance. 'Dad's Army' continue to impress, amazing though that these same players performed so poorly earlier in the season, under a different regime.

Ross County and their fans wouldn't have needed to plan anything, unless they are from the central belt - they'd have been at home????????

RIP Billy - good goalkeeper.

Nah - my Brother-in-Law remarked about that at half-time, though I couldn't recall it myself.

Agree with a lot of that, but big Ripley didn't exactly cover himself in glory at their equaliser - should never have been beaten where he was - near post.

The part that's got the Blue skies and Sun !!!

Shit 2-2

Agree with a lot of that - but these teams that you mention all seem able to produce/buy reasonable 'combatitive midfielders' - our scouting system in recent years has proven poor, particularly in that area - hopefully something McGhee can rectify. Oh and by the way - wasn't it Jim Gannon who signed Jennings?

£5 and £1 - commentator mentions it in the first few seconds.

Yip - that's definitely conclusive

And you can keep those photos to yourself...................please!!!!!!!!!!!

Taken in perspective with the crap we have signed - yes.

in recent seasons and earlier this (Ross County at least), they have. Don't know what changed on Saturday.

Great point !!!!

LOL that was crazy - jumping about outside the main stand, going absolutely bonkers - even your grandad had a wee dig at some of the United fans outside.

Didn't Stuart Rennie suffer concussion during this match as well and played on with a bandage "a la " Butcher?
