Pleased to see that Moore involved in the last 2 games. Wonder if there is a possibility of him and Erwin lining up either side of Sutton. Two really good prospects that are ready to standout in this league.

Sounds like we've been competitive and carried a threat through Pearson. Progress.

That's what I think it'll be. Ridiculous amount of dross but options obviously limited. Meanwhile, the United lineup looks decent despite resting 7 usual starters.

Shame the offer has fell at a time when demand is so low, which possibly jeopardises similar initiatives in the future.

Said it for some time but an athletic fullback is a priority. Ben Gordon caught the eye at Killie and I was surprised to see him end up at Ross County. Watt looks a decent prospect but ideally would he not be pushing for a right back spot? Too much of a jump to expect him to play well regularly given the severity of our predicament.

Yeah of course, however I wouldn't hang on to our current points tally as a reason to why we will finish above both St Mirren and Ross County. At present, Teale's St Mirren is a better outfit than Motherwell. It also can't be discounted that we have picked up 10 out of our 17 points from the 2 below us and that particular tally flatters us when you consider the corresponding performances. Meanwhile, I don't think there is 1 game this season where you could say we were hard done by.

I don't think United carry quite the same threat as last season but if they are up for it, they could easily put 4 or 5 by us.

Ainsworth went missing numerous times last season. It was acknowledged by McCall early in the season that this was part of his makeup. I thought Watt looked relatively decent.

Don't understand why some put so much focus on accumulated points to date. So far this season, St Mirren have displayed a significantly superior standard of football which has been partly undermined by some ridiculous Tommy Craig signings. They now have a bit of momentum under a novice manager and look capable of picking up a few results. We meanwhile are a team devoid of shape and spirit, a team that has not improved one bit since the Iceland sham, a team that has had less than 50% possession in just about every game and has the 2nd worst goal difference in Britain. We don't look capable of outplaying anyone at present and we will finish 11th at best if the players don't react to Baracloughs methods very soon. No greeting if we go down though; the club has sleepwalked into this predicament. If we then need to cut our cloth accordingly and become a Falkirk/Dunfermline then so be it - it's pretty much nailed on under the financial constraints of fan ownership anyway.

We were woeful in Aberdeen. A must win game and we didn't threaten until the last 5 minutes. If it hadn't been for an outstanding performance from Hutchinson, we'd have lost by 2 or 3. The players were also playing for an 'extra few quid' that day.

Think the question has to be asked regarding Ainsworth tonight. Deplorable attitude.

If we were to extend our losing streak to 7, there'd be no option but to sack the manager and bring in a Craig Brown type. I'm sure our prospective owner could stretch to a pay-off given his role in recruitment.

I doubt there's been a season where we've had lower possession stats. Brutal watching a team that isn't the slightest bit comfortable with the ball. Tonight won't be a defining one and I appreciate the constraints but I'm already inclined to think Baraclough is out his depth, by some distance.

Brilliant Lionel. Inexcusable.

How much space did Stokes have there? Atrocious.

Centre midfield of Ramsden and Carswell... Who's the captain tonight?

Must stop broadcasting how skint we are.

Adam King. Forest tried to sign Holt around a similar time.

Jason Holt to be released by Hearts. There's a player you could develop and make money out of.

1-0 Ainsworth. 500/1.

I think our rapid decline would suggest Faddy and Hutchinson inspired those around them. It's further evident when you listen to the odd soundbite. And remember how much the squad got a lift when Faddy got fit and started playing through the middle, just as we turned the season around.

The game has changed globally though. Best attackers in the world are expected to put in a good defensive shift.

Seriously? While defending doesn't come naturally too him how many times has a midfield player ran away from him? And for all his quality on the ball, he's drifted in and out just above every game I've seen him. I think it's a possible lack of desire that would see him out the door.

His missus turned down Oldham. Talented player but he has proven to be a poor signing by McCall because he never fitted into our system or style of play.

Must be a mix-up with George Friend as he's on a 4 year deal at Boro and would be a significant step up in quality. I'd have taken Dayton at FP a couple of years ago but haven't seen him since leaving Killie.
