What game was this guy at.
From Twitter- Motherwell piling bodies forward in search of the goal.- Cole and Polworth shots saved after brilliant flowing moves.- Hastie causing havoc down St Mirren's right.- Polworth heads just over from Gallagher's flick.
Something seriously wrong somewhere with our approach to old firm games, other" Diddy" teams if not winning can at least give a decent account of themselves. The last time we were half decent against Celtic was a few seasons ago when got a 1-1 draw playing with 10 men.
I agree with you Yorkyred , I understand the club can’t do anything and that it’s happening at other clubs . We’ve done ok in transfer fees over the past few years and that’s always welcome for club like ours . But imagine a scenario where the club is financially secure and has a squad that’s shite and we get relegated.....nah that couldn’t happen .
Our best young players being cherrypicked before we can get them under contract will eventually bite us on the arse.
Do we actually have any good youth players ready to break into the first team ?
We had umpteen corners and did nothing with them , Hamilton showed us how it's done . That was absolutely dire in no way did we deserve anything from that ,apart from Turnbull's header we created nothing. Doing nothing and going nowhere at present sadly.
Absolutely no threat up front even when we’re on top , good to see Turnbull back but when you look at the bench apart from Dunne coming back we’ve got nothing . Certainly not calling for anyone’s head though, no danger will we sack Robbo, it’s a fine line when you sell your best young players to keep the club going and replace them with has beens and never beens .
Tae be honest I wasn’t overly confident of winning tonight , it’s just a pity that after a great fight back we couldn’t do it. Ah well put the Scottish cup thread away for another year....sadly.
No matter what you say about selling of our young players (and I personally don't like it) , sitting third in the league, no debt,in fact a bit of cash in the bank ,our business plan up till now is working
Oh that's a sore one ,accies get the bragging rights over the winter shutdown by winning the last Lanarkshire derby of the decade , typical Motherwell.
I was actually pleased that we kept the score respectable, our league form against Rangers is an embarrassment. They're in a lot of ways bigger and better than us I know.
