Longelos attempt to get back into position when he gives ball away is pathetic.

Totally agree. You do not get long term success and consistancy with that style. Its survival football at its best.

Looking at stats we made 4 fouls and had 2 booked. Hearts had 14 fouls with 4 booked. It seems we pick up bookings very easily compared to others. Just seeing Dees of Killie committi g another schocker of a tackle and getting away with it again.

Is Robinson St Mirren going same way as his ending with us? They are good at what they do, but an element of luck is needed to be succesful. They need to win 2nd balls or get lucky breaks to create chances.

Killies penalty was a joke.

Did not see game. Reading the hearts comments we were very good and did not tire as they expected in 2nd half. Seems every team is brutal against us. It suggests we are a very good team. A draw against a city team who sit top if the league shows how far we have come in a short period of time. We will get better and are showing a consistancy not seen in many a year. Whilst three points would have been great a point and upto 3rd and more confidence in the team cant be dismissed as anything other than a positive result.

Priestman was outstanding for his first start. Every player played their part, but Priestman showed he can be trusted and play. Also Wards passing was very good. He also came for crosses and that helps the defence. Can we keep cook just and TJ upfront. There link up play was brilliant.

Sparrows position in team was a jba masterclass.

Brilliant and professional team performance. Made another opponent look ordinary. Onwards and upwards.

Hope we dont miss tj pace

Nothing stupid at start of 2nd Keep the ball and work them. Mind you thats not the motherwell way....

Brilliant first half. The link up play up front has been a joy to watch. Playing sparrow wide right has worked a treat. Now for once give us a 2nd half as good again please.

Wake up warning. Games not won.

That will do nicely

Soft or not. It stopped shot going on target. Good penalty

Arms out and stops shot on target

Nice dive Bowie

May as well say now. Officials are clowns.

The state of our pitch at the end of Nov.......

Agree Fads needs a rest. Think its only Watt and maybe TJ now thats played every game. Looking at the warm up. Its a back four with McGinn right back. Sparrow in midfield for his energy.

We seldom pick the same team from game to game. Probably a few more changes than i would like mind you. Perhaps the plastic pitch has had a bigger impact on recovery. Big opportunity for a few to show us what they can bring to the team. No AP again. Not very reliable. Longelo needs time on the bench as by his earlier standards he has underperformed and is weak defensively. Probably the strongest bench we ever have. So there is scope for positive changes.

Need a strong street wise referee. Does such a thing exist? Certain Hibs players like a dive in and around opponents box. So we need to be extra careful not to dangle legs or jump in. They are also quite direct. We have struggled against them home and away. Going to be a hard game. We need to be clinical and have abit of luck. Going to be interesting.

Kettlewell in full blown denial. He did not feel dominated. 65% possession for us in first half and near enough 60% full match. His goalie with a wordly save off slattery to stop 3rd and a couple of decent stops in 2nd. Whereass Ward with exception of their goal had nothing to do. As i said im sure his media mates will excuse him.

Just as well it was raining and pitch was soaking.

I understand what you are saying but i wonder what they told Miller. Who it seems only wanted to go to a team where he learns and plays. Hopefully works out for him. But any return on loan to scotland would be a backwards step.
