I Think Watt got hurt. Agree, would have kept TJ on and took AP off. I don’t think his subs today changed the flow of the game, we were still dominating but comes Down to basic error.

I didn’t see any foul.

They heard you were on holiday 😂

We need to improve up top (seems strange after scoring 5 goals in two games but I think it’s a fair comment) and in defence. Having said that, when you consider that we have dropped 4 points due to glaring errors, you have to say that our style of play is working. As mentioned in another post it’s the glaring errors that need to be fixed, not our style/tactics.

I think Cooke should be a good buy for us. Good to see Johnny K back playing. Longelo scoring again, excellent. International break should give Slattery some extra time to recover. Thought AP struggled today. Surprised he didn’t come off instead of TJ. Everyone else seemed to perform decent without being outstanding. Goalie didnt have much to do but cost us dearly with an absolute howler. JBA got two weeks to consider trying Ox. …….. but only two days to get a good centre back!!!

10 games unbeaten. However we need a winning streak! Hopefully JBA can get us there.

Well it is an improvement. Before we were never in the games, were pish to watch never had the ball and getting beat. Compare where we were to where we are and it’s better than I thought it would be. Goalie has cost us 4 points the last two games. So I get your point that we are still not winning games and we do need to start doing that. Is it as easy as putting Ox back in goals? Maybe.

Dreadful mistake. First with the pass then the drops is

Excellent goal. No more than we deserve.

I didn’t realize Slattery was injured. Hopefully not out for long

Is he back available for tomorrow’s game?

Correct! No easy games. We are certainly capable of taking 3 points but need to continue to play well and keep our focus for the full game, taking our chances when they come along.

Not really sure what intimidating atmosphere means. But I think the crowd should Channel the energy into backing the team. I think some people are of the opinion that the best think we can do to annoy SK is to ignore him but of course I’m sure there are many who want to have a go at him. You pay your money you take your choice. I’m just hoping our performance on the park keeps us us enthralled and that we have no time to even think about SK ‘cause we are enjoying watching our team so much

Yep. I’d say CB way top of the list. Maybe even the only one on the list so we can afford a good one.

Definitely think the fans should treat this as a normal game and forget/ignore SK being their manager. No banners, no songs, no abuse just focus on supporting our team. Let’s just get 3 points cause that’s really what matters. COYW!!!!!

Looks like BBC agrees with Record

We need another Kipre !

Thought it was only free agents and yes, from what I’ve seen it shuts at 7pm on Monday.

Grimsby 12-11 on PKs over Man U

Makes sense.

No new rumours?

Not long till transfer window closes and I’m really hoping we are in the process of getting a center back signed up that is better than anyone we have. Not a slight on the players we have but obviously if you’re trying to strengthen the team you want better than what you have. I’m ok with our two keepers, I think we have good numbers and decent back up for our midfield and forward positions but centre back position is where we need to strengthen. I think we will be hard to beat if we can find that player. Combine hard to beat with the football we are playing and it could be the most enjoyable season for a long long time. Added to that is the excitement of the fans. Already more people coming to the games with positive encouragement for the players and creating a much more vibrant atmosphere. Even people talking of bringing their friends to watch us and people who have been scunnered over the years talking of coming back to Fir Park. It’s quite a while since there has been such an optimistic feel like this around Fir Park and getting a strong imposing footballing centre half will help immensely to keep that going. C’mon Motherwell, one more Rabbit out of the hat!!

I know. We can never just sit back relax and enjoy us playing well. We just keep on waiting to collapse and be disappointed. I mean we have gone 9 games unbeaten and deservedly so. We know we will loose at some point and that will definitely be disappointing but please don’t let it be against SK’s team!! I really, really hope we give them a thumping and strike a victory for playing good football over dull negative kick and hope stuff that has been the bane of Scottish football for so many years now.

Did Miller get any game time?

Haven’t seen him at all and so have no idea if he’s the type of player that would benefit us or not. Like most people are saying, regardless of how good Rice is, I’d much rather use our resources to get a starting centre back.
