And that was just on Saturday. Looking at the form table over the last 6 games, our stats are phenomenal. 4 points better off than Hearts, 5 more than Celtic, 6 more than Rangers. More goals scored than any of them and just a single goal conceded. We're all waiting for the wheels to come off, because let's face it, we're Motherwell, and they always do. But then, I've never seen a Motherwell side or manager quite like this, so there's a first time for everything. That includes me going to Dens. Hope it's mobbed, they deserve it.

Rebuild, remain. It's home.

Hope this doesn't come back to bite Slattery (and us) on the arse. I wouldn't put anything past them, even at this stage.

If JBA wants the Celtic job or any other big move, he knows the best way to get it would be to win the league, or take us as close to the top as possible. He looks and sounds pretty single minded to me, and the players have that cut about them too. They've been like a machine the past few weeks, while others have faltered.

Release the Shinnie!

Typo, I expect, but we have one.

On the plus side, those games give us the chance to directly affect where we finish. If we manage to take full points from the next 2 games, our season may well be entirely in our own hands. One thing's for sure - nobody will be looking forward to playing us right now.

Keep dreaming....

Aberdeen down to 10 men for DOGSO. Dundee score the penalty. Ha and feckin ha.

Definitely. Better to dream of catching than worry about being caught.

There's a post on our Facebook page that has a link to St Mirren, who are now selling 'additional' digital tickets to Motherwell fans. Mibbe 40 or so remaining.

Looking close to a sell out for our allocation.

You'd struggle to find a more greetin' faced referee botherer than Shinnie, and yet, following Gordon's foul, he gives him a hand up and makes absolutely no move to complain after the ref shows the yellow card. That should tell them all they need to know.

I blame Kenny McLean for Gordon's red card.

They have. And all of those clubs have spent a varying number of years in lower divisions during the last 35 years, as have Hearts and Hibs, who've also won silverware. I suppose it depends how folk measure success. Out of interest, would you say there's no hope of us winning the league this season?

Connelly didn't kill the game plan. He made a mistake that could've resulted in a goal (prior to the free kick). He didn't cause Priestman to slip and get a red card.

Since you believe this team and manager have been guilty of these things on two ocassions this season, and that is unacceptable, what is it you think the club should actually do about it now? Because simply informing them they must win these games in the future doesn't guarantee a thing.

If it's unacceptable, what should be done about it?

That's the case in England, but looks like the suspension is still served in the relevant competion here, according to their rules. VAR is checking for a possible rule change.

Yeah, for a lot of Motherwell fans football's about happy - or not so happy - memories. If it was only about winning, most of us would've given up long ago.

Pretty sure the suspension only applies to the cup. At least he'll be well rested.

No Priestman?

I agree with you on the penalty, but I wouldn't want a penny back. From the word go not much else could've gone wrong, but they fought to the end, and I think the vast majority of fans appreciated that.

Nothing's ever guaranteed, but we've got the team we all wanted for years - playing attractive football, winning games and willing to go toe to toe with everyone they face, including the uglies. If they're going up there believing they'll win, so am I.

True. We beat Rangers here with 4 games to go, but everyone assumed they'd cruise to the title anyway. That Utd game killed us.
