That is good news. Im sure the family will be very relieved. Best wishes to all......
-
Aye. I made a comment about a big game under the lights deserving a big performance! But the ko is 6.15pm.
-
Oh, aye. Forgot about the stupid ko time!
-
Me too. Especially as I will be going to that game! Whilst I dont immediately right any game we play off, I did give up on going to Parkhead ages ago. Paying over the odds for a shite view with a very slim chance of a positive result isnt a productive use of a Saturday afternoon for me. Hopefully we can get some positive results between now and then to get the home end as full as possible. Big nights under the lights deserve big performances.

Get the boy on a 5 year contract immediately!

Glad to see Grimmy get a club. Maybe not at the level he would have hoped, but gets him back in the shop window. I wish him all the best.

Ross County v Motherwell now Tuesday 04/10/2022

Thats actually pretty decent. I wouldnt have said our record up there was anywhere near as good as that. -
As long as he isnt carrying any new injuries we dont know about, if he has had a full pre season behind him, he should certainly be fit for the bench. A 10 / 15 minute cameo will do fine right now.
-
Which is in itself somewhat mind boggling!

So had a trawl thru transfermarket stats. They only do from season 2001 onwards. The most we have been awarded is 9. In season 2009/2010 we had 8 with Ross Forbes scoring 5 of them, Sutton 2 and Juke 1. A couple of seasons we had 6 but the rest were between 3 and 5. Certainly in the modern era this season is looking at being on the high end of the spectrum already.
-
Well remembered. According to Transfermarket it was 9. 6 scored. 4 by McBride 2 by Foran. Misses from Foran, Hamilton & Clarkson.

Ross County are a hard team to beat on their own patch. Much like their start last season, their results so far this season bely the way they have been playing. A point would be a decent result. 3 would be outstanding. Maintaining our level of performance and style if play is the most important thing for me. Be nice to see Louis make the bench and get a 10 min cameo at the end. -
Its certainly the explanation given as to why the big 2 get more decisions. That and the influence of the crowd.......
-
If that was the case, surely other clubs would have seen an upturn in penalty awards?
-
Update Having a look back at the last 10 years, the most we have ever had is 6. The average is 5 across the whole period. Given how many European qualifications we have had and 3 best of the rest finishes, that is quite something. Of course we might not get another penalty for the rest of the season, but that seems unlikely.
-
Given that we have already had 5 penalties this season, and not being a club who tends to get the benefit of that many, it got me thinking what would our club record be for number of penalties in a season? I had a look in Transfermarket at our stats for the last 3 seasons and it didnt surprise me that the total of penalties in all competitions were 4, 5 and 5. It also got me wondering if this is is just an anomaly this season, or is it down to the style of football Stevie Hammell is employing? More possession, more chances, more time in the opposition box, more penalties? Discuss........
-
If we keep creating as many chances as we did today KVV will hit 20 goals for the season no problem. If he misses 50 chances to get that figure I will bite your hand off right now.
-
KVVs issues were with gambling. I think you are trying to find a problem that doesnt exist. He has missed plenty of chances prior to Moults arrival and will no doubt continue to do so. The only one I would criticise him today for is the penalty miss.
-
Listening to Hammell talk gives me a lot of confidence. None of the usual tropes and generalisations. Open and honest assessment of what worked, what didnt and where we need to improve, mixed with a clear desire to play entertaining football and give the players freedom within the set up to go and express themselves. Its no surprise both the players and the fans feel happier.......
-
Nice to get a clean sheet and defence were solid for the most part. Thought both Goss and Slattery had good games. Always available for the ball and looking for the forward pass. Went for Slattery but could just as easy have given it to Goss.
-
Not as fluent in the second half, but still the better side and still created enough chances to have won the game. Definitely feels like 2 points dropped. That said, still way more enjoyable to watch than Alexanderball. Would probably have made the subs a little earlier and would have taken Spittall off instead of Tierney, but overall, Stevie Hammell seems to be growing into the job nicely. Now to get King Louis in the team......
