Ya Bezzer!

It was a baffling post from Busta Nut. Apart from the reading comprehension issues, Craig Brown had one of the best win records of any Motherwell manager ever after picking up the team after one of our worst ever managers. Also played a huge part in setting up the team for the Stuart McCall era success. But yeah, whatever.

I said 'type'. As in someone with a track record and expertise in coaching.

Yeah, imagine watching a team that was coached properly.

We need to bring in a Craig Brown type. Some one is actually steeped in coaching and knows how to organise a team. We don't have good players but I guarantee you if they were coached properly we'd be a hell of a lot better.

I've been saying this for a long while but if you don't have players with decent fundamentals it doesn't matter what formation you play. A year and a half a go I was saying our midfield wasn't good enough and it still isn't. What formation can we play? In a supposedly professional football squad any of our players who can take a touch or pass the ball are exceptional. It's embarrassing. When you take this lack of basics across the squad and then add on top of it that the coaching of the team is non existent and that Robinson hasn't improved a single player then you get performances like today splattered all over the season.

Kilmarnock play 4-4-2 most of the time. Burke - Power - Dicker - Jones. They are a similar sized club to us and they are challenging for the title.

We've done that pretty much through the whole Robinson era. So it's down to the manager or the players completely ignore him. Either way is inexcusable.

If you play a 4-2-3-1 with two sitting midfielders and three attacking midfielders you need a forward that can hold the ball up (Johnson can't), you need wide players that are going to come inside (Frear doesn't do that, Ariyibi didn't show much evidence of that either), you need your most creative midfielder in the forward attacking row (Turnbull wasn't) and you need two dedicated defensive midfielders (Campbell was on the bench). A total cluster fuck.

Manager says he knew the two new players weren't fit but played them any way. Also describes us as a 'work in progress' 29 matches into the season.

This, really. Robinson has had so many chances and he's not built on any of them. At this stage there is simply no reason to believe we can go forward for any more than a game or two before the standard bilge returns.

That's what I meant!

Hastie, came in, scored a goal. Something most of the players can't do over a season, or if they can, barely.

We've been horrendous since November bar a flukey Scottish Cup run.

Ross County more or less played a full side against out Colts and our Colts were far better than our first team today. And it wasn't even one of the Colts better performances.

We are a team completely bereft of footballing acumen because we have a manager completely bereft of footballing acumen. Robinson is a plague of locust and when he's finished there will be nothing left. Nothing but a barren wasteland whence once football existed. The first half was poor but the second half was atrocious. The first goal was over due when it came. Ross County should have won by more than two. Who thought Turnbull should play along side McHugh in a defensive midfield position? Who thought McCormack was fit to play? Who thought that Danny Johnson could play up front on his own? And our touch, our play, our style, our ability, our imagination, our creativity, our defending, our overall attitude..... Honestly, I've ran out of vitriol. I having nothing new to say, no new way to describe it. It's just the same old shite every week. If we don't beat Hibs midweek Robinson should be fired. The whole club needs cleaned out with a high power hose and guys like Hastie, Livingston and James need to step up. We need football people at the club. Please, please, please get them in.

Playing Turnbull in a DM position is a total waste of his ability. McCormack looks about the same weight as Kris Boyd despite being 6 inches shorter. Ross County edged the first half for me.

"ize" is a sign you've gone full American.

Bit of a potted career so far but we needed a right winger and we've got one. The lad has a chance to impress, hopefully he takes it.

It's a right sided player we need.

This. I mean Calvin Miller is probably ahead of Livingstone as a player right now but there is a reason for that, we've not played Livingstone. Bringing in Calvin Miller for 5 months on loan just sets Livingstone even further back and long term makes no sense.

McCormack in, Bowman out is a big step in the right direction. I just hope we don't have a similar situation to the Ciftci signing last season where the guy was so far off fitness it wasn't until the end of the season that he started looking like a player.

We've kept 3 clean sheets in 20 league matches. Even if you only concede 1 you still need to score 2 to win. So I think it is a problem, especially since we are lacking creatively.

Frear was our best player but it's hard to ignore someone who scores two goals, including the winning goal. Think I have to go for Aldred.

You never know, we might start playing a 4-3-3.

McCormack might be getting on and a difficult player but I'll take him over Wayne Grafter from Glipton Grasshoppers.
