.or maybe he's been sick all week like it says in the Tweet in the shout box :-)

First game I remember was in early 60's Motherwell V Rangers at Fir Park 3-3 Don't recall a whole lot about it other than I was up in the stand with 2 of my uncles and that Wullie Hunter was the best player on the park.

Ruddy was tryin to get on the score sheet but ddin't quite make it

When I looked at the replays I think the linesman got it right. and if he didn't it was tight enough that I don't think you could fault him for calling it.

Thats the first time I have seen Gomis. I would not have put him back out for the second half. Although we defended in numbers the first half I thought we looked very vulnerable so hopefully we can tihten that up. Much better positive attitude in the scond half but we give the ball away too easily when we have time and space. So all in all when you consider how much room we have for imporvement next season mght be a good one COYW lets get 4th

Like someone else mentioned, a bit nervous in that we have realistic expectations of taking something from this game. Hope it doesn't turn out that we get hammered. I'm going for 3-1 to the mighty well. 2-0 up then celtic get one back then close to the end Griffiths ballooning a penalty kick over the bar then we score in stoppage time. Edit: Moult hat trick

Good that the game is on Saturday then! That was my "weeyin" impersonation

Correct. 47 possible. Saturday certainly has thrown up a very exciting fixture list for last game before the split with pretty much every team needing to win.... Except us but I hope we go into the game with the attitude that we need to win it. Although we are the early game I think our result really won't make a difference to how the other teams will approach their games. I'll be up early on Saturday and hopefully waking everybody else's up screaming my head off when we score and win. Ok I'll still be cheering if we get a draw. COYW

So what's likely line up? Ripley Kennedy McManus Hall Hammell Cadden Lasley Gomis Johnson McDonald Moult

Who's available and whose out for this game?

Good guys to win this one and al but secure top 6 finish. COYW !!!!!!!!!

Ross county play both Dundee and Thistle So if we beat Caley then I think we are guranteed top 6 finish.......or if not guranteed at least highly likely.

Aye, yer right enough.COYW I saw that we equalized but then couldn't look again till it ws full time........amkes the weekends oooooooooooooooooo much better

results not too bad really at the moment other than St Johnstone winning.......and us 1 down of course

Lets hope we get a couple of goals ahead 'cause you know we are going to be dead on our feet the last 15 mins if everyone has been sick this week.

A lot to ask from the team considering our up and down performances this season but if we can beat aberdeen and Inverness I think we'd be in the top 6. That would be 5 wins in a row and we don't do that too often but top 6 finish should be the goal as opposed to the goal being avoid play off spot. Top 6 would obviosuly remove all the pressure and hopefully get us some extra gate money in with larger away crowds, depending on the annual fixture fiasco outcome. Plus the higher you finish the more money you get. should we change the name of this thread to "top 6" ? :-)

The players should be looking forward to this one. Pressure eased a bit, confidence up a level or 2 after 3 wins on the trot but as you say will be interesting to see who we have available. hopefully a good size away support. Perhaps a game more suited to our coounter attacking approach? Looking forward to it. I'm going for 4 in a row COYW

Considering the season we have had, Moult has done very well in scoring so many. I think we may have found our replacement for Higdon/Sutton. Seems like he has the knack of scoring enough that he could out perform them plus he is a lot more mobile then either of those two. Here's hoping he stayson and we get a team that can create a lo tmore chances for him. Our season will no tbe a complete waste in as much as I think we have unearthed 3 very decent players in Moult plus Hall and Cadden.

Definately African! I was also practising some hypocrasy ...no howfing it up the park........(except for the last 5 mins)

The one good reason to end up in the bottom 6 would be to beat Accies in the game that sends them back down

4 games to get out arses into the top 6 and enjoy a stress free end to the season

At least they have been booked and not got off Scott free

The players have got to go into this game with the right attitude. Get right in their faces when they have the ball but try and play football when we have the ball. no just howfin it up the park............although that wil be accpetable in the last 5 minutes.............. We have to go at them right from the kick off and put them back on their heels. I agree with McGhee that previosu results don't mean anything. If we turn up and play like we are capable of, then we can beat them but we can;t afford to have any players hiding. 4 -1 for the Well

Looking at our 5 games to the split I think we need to take 6 points form the accies and Utd games. Might not get a lot from Aberdeen, Caley and Celtic, although with Motherwell you just never know. Then win 2 games after the split and I think we should be safe.

The team picked today should be good enough to beat Thistle. It's up to the players to step up and put in a decent performance. and in the last 5 mins, if it's close, get the ball into the thistle half and Fkn keep it there.
