Guys on the commentary on Saturday reckoned he'd triggered a suspension with his booking.

Given Brendan Roger's complaints about Celtic's pitch, they might want to try keeping player's off their's too.

Was interesting to hear McGhee say in his post match that the 10 day break would allow Blyth to get in another couple of games. Wonder if that meant he is looking to start him in the next match or if it was just McGhee being McGhee.

And he had a perfect view. Even Craggs could see it from the other side of the pitch.

I also take no satisfaction in pointing out I was 100% correct about Ainsworth not being the answer in the position he was played today. I like him, but the one thing he does well is play wide right and attack the left back. Watching the game on telly today I don't think his name was even mentioned in the first half.

They do say that, but from a purely statistical basis it's not even close to true. Partly because there is a human element, but even if there wasn't, statistical probabilities converge as you reach infinity - not half a football season. Now I need to get back to washing my anorak. The dandruff leaves a terrible mess in the hood.

Not a fan of playing right wingers on the left.

Looking forward to seeing what Frear can offer, but imagine this will not be the game for him. Would like to see Hastie as an option on the bench.

You don't think Craigan is doing a good job developing our U20s? The football they are playing doesn't look very "dark age" to me. Regardless, it's obvious Craigan has a personal beef with Cathro based on direct experience from the UEFA coaching programme they were on. It may be legit, it may not - but at least it's based on first hand experience. I have no issues with Cathro one way or the other. Time will tell if he's any good as a manager. Saving our game, however, will not happen until the entire SFA/SPFL is ripped down and rebuilt. And that will never happen.

Or to put it another way - One up can only work if someone is playing for a team that's not Motherwell. I'm sure we must have had success with it over the years, but I'm struggling to think of a specific example.

I think the SFA may have something to say about that front two.

We need to play two strikers. I'd rather have Blyth, Bowman or even Hastie partner Moult than watch us punt high balls up to an isolated lone front man.

I think Craggs had personal issues with him at the UEFA coaching course at Largs. He had a dig at him about never attending classes. Regardless, he could have a stroke and still make more sense than Chris Sutton.

You can't just blame McGhee for our abject performances against that mob. We have been consistently rolling over for the last 15 years or so.

And yet, there they are, sitting 2nd in the league. So they must be picking up points somewhere.

Still surprised Hearts ditched their last gaffer. Hoping that decision continues to haunt them after this game. Our record against Hearts at Fir Park has been solid the past few seasons so reasons to be optimistic for this one.

I can offer 20 quid and an electric gate opener.

Aye, we have Trump in the White House and Trumpets in the East Stand.

8 game ban, 2 suspended, for biting someone in the Dundee derby. Utd claimed he showed restraint under severe provocation.

And a big "roon ye" to everyone predicting a 4 game losing streak starting tonight.

The Rangers move was his agent being at it. All the patter about it being a dream move etc. But as others have said, after his deal was made nobody could doubt his commitment to our cause for the remainder of his contract. Total professional that others could learn from.

Sell Skippy. Sign Ciftci. Get Hastie up to speed from the U20s. Frear pinging in crosses to the tunnel of uncertainty. Profit. This management lark's a doddle.

At the last Well Society meeting we were told we don't need to sell anyone else this season and if we did get a large bid in for one of players (an offer we couldn't refuse kinda thing) it we be put to the Society members for discussion. I doubt the Skippy deal would fall into that category, but if any bid for 750k came in for Moult (from Rangers or anyone else) I'd expect that to be put the the members. That effectively rules out any last minute deals of that kind.

Magic - big 3 points.

Who knows? We might have used the money we got for him to bring an excellent replacement. Much in the way we replaced Sutton's goals and Higdon's goals etc. Glad he's here, though!
