He surely would be prohibited from playing in that scenario.

Apparently they wanted Accies to pay 50% wages, so not sure how viable Shiels is.

Dean Shiels in apparently

Is Leanne the new scout? lol

Don't think there's a limit on cross-border loans.

Motherwell FC @MotherwellFC 28s We're still working on players folks - we're hoping to get a few more over the line before the deadline. We'll confirm asap!

Got a work project this weekens, so wont make it. It'll have to be BBC updates. Reckon we could get something from this though. ... Eternal optimist

From the radio sounded like good performances from Moore when he camr on. So getting a bit of depth hopefully, what with Pearson here now and a few other of the young uns kicking on.

Goooaaal. Ramsden.

... On the bright side. Dundee 2-1 at St Mirren

Free header. Shock!

Bollocks.

Thomson just gave a goal and linesman over-ruled.

8/1 so stuck it on. We've got to win at some point, right?

FFS. Schoolboy stuff. Tempted just to switch this off now.

My tuppence worth... One thing that I have been screaming this season is "stop the cross". We will shadow/track a player down the line or whatever, but step off about ten yards and allow the cross. We need to get much tighter. Which leads me to... backing off. Any time the opposition attack, we back off and back off, which then leads to a shot/cross/final ball (see above). Inviting pressure has been a theme this season. Players contesting the same ball. A few times in the highlights there are 3 players chasing the same man/ball, with Lasley particularly headless in one instance. Movement. We need to pass and move. At the moment its just pass - if we're lucky. The much maligned Josh Law is one of the few who provides this. We need to have a dig on goal more often.

Goal. Sutton. Game on.

Hopefully Aberdeen win then.

Ffs 2. Worrying

Oh dear.

Vigurs seemed to have a fair limp on him when he was going to/from his seat in the main stand

Also, have to say some of the songs the bois were singing were inspired. I was sitting fnarring alot of the game. The Wealdstone Raider stuff and the Ainsworth/Lion sleeps tonight stuff was genius. Liking twist and shout as well. Sure I have heard that somewhere else recently. Possibly Hamburg? Edit: It was West Ham when I was at Upton Park.

We were very comfortable in possession, Same old problem of penetration and final ball though. He wasnt afraid to change it and made sensible subs. Only shot on targat was goal I think, but we largely controlled 2nd half, which was to be expected. Obviously way to early to judge Baraclough, but made sensible subs/alterations and seemed to have some organisation.

3 pts, thats all that matters. Decent goal. Ball retention was good, if very frustating at 0-0. Josh Law played well again. Baraclough not afraid to switch it and make subs it would seem.
