Aye I think its pish too, dilutes everything.

Straker is still the worst player i've ever seen.

fuck me

Don't even have the option or I would.

1-0 McDonald at 150/1. Do it for me Motherwell.

^^ Plays too much football manager. Ainsworth is not and never will be a striker.

Best move for both parties. Shite keeper but I wish him well.

Confirmed: Adam Cummins out on loan to Stirling Albion until the end of the season.

I'd agree with that Haggis, but unless he sorts it out on the park it doesn't mean anything. I definitely feel for him, I feel like he has the right idea in changing the set up and implementing a more forward thinking philosophy at the club but my worry is that when it comes to the crunch he doesn't have the tactical ability to translate all of the good work behind the scenes in to performances. I hope i'm wrong because he's likable but i'd still punt him if we look inept on Saturday.

Confirmed. Well, kind of..

It's in the news today anyway so you don't need to worry any longer.

It should be his shoes. I saw him last Saturday night out wearing cowboy shoes with no socks.

One recent example of many if you want to have more of a look. It also isn't difficult to find pictures - and even videos - of players absolutely out their dial in town most Saturday nights. The jail story will likely to be picked up by the media soon too. None of what has been posted is "Daily Mail style gossip" or "utter fucking bilge". Its true.

We won't see him in a Motherwell shirt again IMO.

Possibly not but when we're as bad as we are at the minute coupled with how unfit we look most weekends you'd like to think the players would be doing what they can to improve themselves - not be out getting mwi constantly and eating big bowls of chips.

It'd be easier to name the players who aren't hammered most weekends.

If you were watching 90 minutes every week you'd know that this is only a partial cause. There's so much more to it than that.

And another point, Baraclough has made comments which imply he thinks some of the players aren't in the physical condition they should be. If that's the case then they should be banned from going out every Saturday night and getting beyond blazing and posting pictures on Instagram of big plates of double fried chips they seem to be eating.

I pray to god that you aren't actually the Leanne that's been recently appointed at board level or we are in even worse a situation than I could ever imagine possible. I don't care if he took a pay cut - or even if hes playing for free - he wouldn't get in our 5's team. I actually felt sorry for him yesterday because it was cringeworthy how bad he was. Thats 3 full matches now where he's looked wildly out of his depth and it's sickening that he's playing infront of Watt. While some of the abuse was probably a bit OTT during the game, i'd imagine it was largely due to the frustration being shown at A) Baraclough signing him in the first place and B) the fact that he started again this week after his display last week and somehow managed to last the full 90 minutes. Nonsense. The players have been shite all year and deserve stick but Baraclough is making things a million times more difficult than they need to be. He talked all week about needing to get back to basics and make the midfield offer a bit more defensively and what does he do? Sticks players out of position left right and centre in a system it's abundantly clear they can't play in. Craig Moore in midfield? C'mon to fuck. I've never ever in my time supporting Motherwell been a negative supporter but this is far worse than the Malpas season. We need rid and fast.

The players were bad but I still think the manager was culpable for yesterdays performance. When you have a team lacking in confidence (and ability) you keep it simple and put players in their natural positions. What you don't do is sign 800 wingers and then play a striker out wide, bring a striker back from long term injury and have him in the midfield and play the only guy we have the looks capable carrying the ball forward from the middle of the park (Grant) in a deep holding role with nothing in front of him. Our weekly 7 a sides game has more shape to it than that team we had out yesterday and I find it quite difficult to blame the players when they're being asked to carry out jobs they blatantly aren't suited for. Oh, and Sutton up front on his own. Good one.

Get him to fuck now. I know its early days with regards the new signings but the vast majority of them look honking. Even if by some miracle he does manage to keep us up this season, does anyone trust him to sign what will in effect be pretty much a whole new squad for next season? I don't blame the board for his appointment, he talked a good game but I will most definitely blame them if we keep sleep walking in to the abyss. Time to act.
