I refer the honourable gentleman to what I posted before the game started...........I saw nothing in Devine's cameo on Friday to suggest he could defend. To me he was caught between attacking and defending all the time. Was exactly the same tonight. They had the run of that flank till he went off.

We still have the same central three that did so well at the end of last season, we just haven't been able to play them cause of injuries.

So, we're 6th then.......

Well, that was a rollercoaster.........

Surely the biggest foul in that is the two handfulls of obika's jersey the defender had ??????

Ah fuck.........surely not........

OBIKA ????? FFS

We're playing a lot of neat stuff when we play through the midfield. We just need to keep doing it. Devine is getting caught too far forward far too often.

You were quiet for the first half hour though, so that was good. Bet you canny wait for them to score again.

Seriously ? You know people who look at that with fondness ? Really ?

Another weak hand flick from Kelly

Awwww fuck sake Motherwell

Jack Vale is a hard worker of a player......

HOLY SHITBALLS

And now it is.... 2nd course for the BAIR !!!

Should have been 2 there.......

FEEEEED HIM !!!!!!

Sound will be firmly set to 'off' on the commentary tonight.......

Fair enough, he wasn't on for long but he looked a bit lost to me, but obviously others saw different. I'd have been less inclined to give him a debut in a game where we're liable to face a bit of pressure in a vital game against our closest competitor. if the boy has a decent game (I do expect him to be bolder than SOD going forward) i'll be first to come on here and admit that I talk pish 🙂 Hopefully it won't be Cryin' Time (Right, thats the last Sydney Devine reference of the night).

I've seen a few people say they thought Devine was good on Friday but I certainly didn't see it. Might be willing to go forward faster than SOD but don't fancy him defensively. We'll see. Be more than happy if I'm wrong 🙂 Maybe Devine will be the 'answer to everything'. (There's a wee gag for those of a certain age 🙂 )

Glad to see us trying two up front but really don't fancy Devine much at all at RWB.

Are all the other teams around us who can hardly buy a point, like Ross Co and St J getting special permission to play teams from a different league in the run up to the split or are they playing the same teams as us ? Are St J and Ross Co more likely to take points off Hearts, Rangers and Celtic (or even Aberdeen and Hibs) than we are ?

From the BBC commentary...... Van Veen barely seen Kilmarnock 1-0 Cove Rangers We haven't seen too much of Kilmarnock's big January signing on his first start for the club. Maybe he's still hiding behind the post. He's been subbed off. The KVV that left us for Groningen is not the same KVV that signed for Killie. If we'd signed this overweight, unfit, anonymous KVV, you'd have been shouting that the board and the manager are incompetent for wasting money on a guy who won't be fit for half the remaining campaign.

Mandron has 5 in 22, Watkins 5 in 23. If that's not worse than 1 in 4, i'm not sure what is.

Maybe you should look up how these 'leagues' work then. Put simply, you all play games against one another and a system of points is used to determine where you sit in the pecking order. If the performance of 'other sides' in this syetem is something you don't care about, I think you're missing the point. We're not Celtic or Rangers so the best you can ever hope for is to be better than some of these other teams that you don't care about. Some years you'll be better than most of them, some seasons you wont. We're currently sitting above four of them and a point behind another two. Thats the only statisitics that count in league football.
