Maybe I should start Savin for a cup final trip just in case?

I'm just glad rangers didn't lure him away although that probably wan't going to happen after his goal celebrations

Yes we want to be a selling club but we still need to balance that with some ambition as a football club

Now that was funny lol

Not many days better than this. Any other team I would have been relief at staying up but today it's just unadulterated pleasure The last few days I ahve been wandering around mummbling to myself " c'mon motherwell, c'mon " then next week ro longer i'll be wandering about mummbling " six one, six one" hell i may just shout it out loud !!

Off to bed soon and up in the morning to switch the telly on for the big game. Lets get right into this mob again and bang in a few goals the first half. COYW !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll be singing in the living room watchin it live on tv

For all those people over the last few years who were saying they would gladly put up with a bad season for a scottish cup win............Maybe us completing the job on Sunday will hold you over till we do win that cup While I will take any score or performance that results in us staying up I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hoping we can crush them at fir park by at least 3 goals.

I'm just glad the game is on Sunday and not a week away. I don't think my heart and stomach coudl last any longer . Like someone said earlier I have this irrational fear that we will screw it up but hopefully we will approach it as a one off game starting at 0-0 that we need to win. Then if we draw or get beat by one goal we can play our "get out of jail free" card with the 3 - 1 victory. Hoping to see Ainsworth blast in a 30 yard screamer in the first 5 minutes

Seems like popular opinion is to go at rangers the same way again on Sunday. Have to agree, we cannot set up to defend a 2 goal lead. We are good enough going forward to trade punches with them. Lets hope the players are really up for it again and we have a vocal home support behind them. I'm just hoping we can score 1 or 2 firs,t early on, so that maybe I won't keel over with a heart attack or puke up my guts with an ulcer..... Tonight we didn't just believe, we delivered ! COYW !!!!! lets not get complacent if we score first and lets not panic if they score first, just focus and go out and every player do his job like tonight.

I also hope the players are up for this as much as the Well fans are!

I hope we humiliate them at Ibrox and make the second leg a non event! COYW

Not to worry, they'll be leaving early!!! COYW!!!!

same could be said of many goalscorers, thats why they are called scorers and not playmakers or whatever. how many chances did gerd Muller make for himself? Sutton does his job if others do their's. and this is where it spills over into the managers responsibility to set up the team for everyone to do their job. Howfing longballs to sutton is a proven failed option but yet we have done it over and over !!! Considering how pish we have been and with Sutton's playing time reduced he is still only 1 goal away from being second top scorer ( equal ) in the league Again down to the manager, if you field a team incapable of making chances then don't play sutton. Having said that if you play ainsworth and Johnston as wide players I would have Sutton starting and pick from Erwin or McDonald to support him

Seems to be a lot of discussion for one over the other. I would love to keep them both as they are quite different and give you options as to how you want to play. I do agree with whoever said that we should have went with ainsworth and sutton at the start against St Mirren. Erwin has potential and I think we can get more money for him further down the road rather then let him go now and get development fee.

Hopefully he is aiming higher than being a Celtic player.

then if we draw 1-1 with Partick and Killie draw 2-2 with County then county would stay and we wuld be dead even with Killie

Yep. We have got to win Saturday and hope that Killie and County don't both win Would be good if they both got hammered at weekend and we win by a few to have us going into last game with best goal difference out of the 3 teams so that In effect a draw against partick would keep us out of the play off. However I think that goal difference scenario is probably not going to happen so I am just hoping that at least one of them drop points.

sittin on the toilet with 10 mins to go may be the place to be !

Yes!!!! Someone needs to have a word with him. Only a matter of time before some over zealous linseman cals him for it. Our task is hard enough without giving away possesion in such a dangerous area. It's an easy fix to eliminate one risk from giving away advantage to our opponents.

"McDonald has not been as influential as I thought he would". is what I said ok explain to me how I am wrong You know how influential I thought he was going to be?

i'd rather see Dan in goals than Long. Doesn't seem like Long commands his box or comes for crosses any more than Dan did, plus I think Dan is a better shot stopper than Long. Regarding Hammy, I would start him. if he struggles then straker can always come on. if Laing is out then I would start O'Brien. I just don't rate Kerr at all in any position. Up front is a hard one which 2 out of McDonald, Sutton and Erwin to play? I don't think Erwin needs a rest. I'd be tempted to play Erwin and Sutton. McDonald has not been as influential as I thought he would. We know Sutton can score and Erwin can provide the mobility and although he missed a few against accies he has been creating a lot more chances than he used to. For the longest time he was just contributing effort in chasing down balls and harassing defenders. Now, despite missing those chances against accies, he is more of a goal threat. The more chances you get the more you are likely to score.

I think our best chance is the team that started against accies. With possible exceptons of goalie and left back. The issue for me was the fact taht we chucked it when they scored the second. As you say we might not have been palyin wel lbut we did create so with over 30 mins to go we should have been getting even more fired up to try and get get back in the game. But for whatewver reason we threw in the towel.

This is what sickened me

It's on here live at 1.30pm so I suppose I'll be working from home tomorrow afternoon
