  1. Amazingly, it's been 17 years this very day since the Mighty Well pissed on Rangers 9 in a row party, thanks to an Owen Coyle double. The 200 odd Well fans in attendance must've had the time of their lives, watching thus supposed day of celebration turn flat. It's one game I wish I'd went to.

    So, what are everyone's memories of that day?

  2. An excellent result and a real lift after Saturday's crushing disappointment. Looking like 3rd place is the least we'll earn which is fantastic, but 2nd is very much up for grabs. Great to see Vigurs in such good form now, he's really made a difference to our attacking play.

  3. Very much a case of result over performance, although there were a number of positives. Gunnar was tremendous and made a few excellent and crucial saves for us, and generally looked more confident and competent than ever. Despite a slow start it was a great win and we defended well throughout. Going forward we are a real threat. I'd love to see us sign Ainsworth permanently as he's out of contract at Rotherham in the summer. More of the same on Saturday would do me fine.

  4. Any win over Hearts is a welcome one, so a resounding ones hugely enjoyable. To pump them 4-1 without ever really getting out of second gear is very pleasing too. After the previous two performances we really needed that, and it was great to Faddy and Vigs run the show so convincingly.

  5. Hollis

    Reid, Hutchinson, McManus, Hammell

    Ainsworth, Lawson, Leitch, Vigurs

    McFadden, Sutton

    For me Lasley, Anier and Carswell need to be rested to let them recover from injury. Hopefully Lawson is good to go and this would be the perfect game to let Jack Leitch show what he can do. Lee Hollis to return as well.

    Any win to get things back on track, 2-0 will do me fine.

  6. If Gunnar is to be our number one for the remainder of this season then we have to support him. Yes he's nowhere near the ability of Ruddy or Randolph but we can do wonders for his confidence by vocally backing him. It can only help his game and might even secure us a few extra points.

  7. After the Albion Rovers debacle and the pumping from Shellic, none of us expected six wins on the bounce. Great credit is due to McCall and the lads for what they've achieved. It's been a mixture of incisive attacking fitba and gutsy defensive discipline that's earned us those 18 points, four clean sheets too.

    Well done lads.

  8. After the Albion Rovers disaster and the heavy defeats against the United kids and the rotten mob we were on a slippery slope and at one point looked like we were heading for a battle to stay in the top 6 all we asked as Well fans was for a bit of grit, determination and 100% effort. McCall and the players have done that and so much more and deserve massive credit for turning the season around. I would say this result today is better than the one against Thistle cause St Johnstone are a superior team to Partick and to destroy them the way we did shows how far we've come in the last month and now we are all buzzing for the rest of the season. Bring on Inverness !!

     

    Excellently put, I concur with this 100%. From where we were after the Rovers and Celtic games, the players and management deserve huge credit for turning it round so convincingly. Today was a tremendous display of attacking fitba combined with some solid defence. On another day we'd have scored 7 or 8.

  9. One enforced change with Hutchy suspended, looks like big Mick could be back so that'll be fine. One more change for me, no need for an overly defensive set up so Vigurs in for Lawson. Don't expect it to be easy, and with Thistle still awaiting their first home win there's cause for concern. They don't score many goals so one would be enough for a draw. However I'll go for a 2-0 victory.
