Yep, not writing the game off, just setting up much more defensively with Shields' pace upfront potentially for a counter-attack.

Nope, Dundee as well.

I've been expecting them to start plummeting down the table for a wee while now. We could do with helping them on their way. 2-0.

Don't understand Gordon being in the squad at all. Need to start giving someone else a go.

Was watching it on TV and thought it could have been punished but the cameras didn't stay on them long enough to clearly see what happened. You'd think that the VAR cameras would have picked it up.

The throw-in was obstructed!

Morris very lucky to get only a yellow - similar to Grant's red at the weekend.

As a rugby fan, I really do think that they have it right by allowing the dialogue between the match officials and video refs to be heard by all. I really don't understand this need for secrecy when making important decisions in football matches.

Need to stop the long balls as Stewart is winning almost everything.

I'm reasonably confident that we can sneak a win, going to be a hard watch though.

Well this kind of backs up your opinion. VAR is doomed before it even starts.

Really don't understand all this pish about no-one being willing to take a yellow for the team to stop the first goal. There were bodies close enough to Tillman to have made a fair tackle or to have got themselves between the ball and the goal at the very least.

The second goal was a header.

Thought Morris had a fair game today, certainly an improvement from him. Tierney was probably our best player, either him, Goss or McKinstry.

Was just about to type that Efford's having a really good game. 3-0.

Looks like Efford and Lamie might be fit but Arrons is out.

McGinn was solid at the back and with real pace too. Got forward well and had two good opportunities to get shots on target. The second one was poor but on another day the rebound would have found van Veen rather than Gordon.

How do you know that he didn't try to get someone in?

At this rate, we'll need to merge this thread with the former players thread.

^ Exactly. Then if he gets injured again he returns to Burton and it doesn't cost us anything. Worth a punt for sure.

Hopefully this time round we can afford to buy him a brand new baselayer.

One embarrassing humping like that would certainly put his coat on the shoogly peg but two in a fortnight? Think he had to go.

Still no news on Snoddy? If he's taking this long to think about it then maybe his heart isn't fully into a move to Motherwell so we don't really need him.

Finished 7-0 so they didn't set a new record.
