Zdravkovski, Gent & Obika start.

Elite footballers and professional footballers are not always the same thing. I suppose the guys at the very top of the game don't get booed as much as your bang average player.

Which loan guys? The kids, or Lamie, Tierney and Maguire, who were here when Alexander and Hammell got the chop?

Do we have the choice?

That's St Johnstone level with us, courtesy of a 96th minute penalty, courtesy of Charles Dunne. On the bright side, nice to see someone else complaining about a crap run, a team that can't score and a striker who is 'absolutely not a footballer'. Any guesses who that is?

Yup, it is. And looking back at that one last night, I didn't believe a word he said.

They've got their top men on the job, as usual. If you're not ex Old Firm, they don't give a toss.

I think you can give the McFadden stuff a rest. Out of all names I've heard mentioned, realistic and ludicrous, his isn't one of them.

Stop me if you've heard this one before.... https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/local-sport/motherwell-captain-liam-kelly-everyone-29197077

We could surely have signed better players in the summer, probably for the same money, but how much better I don't know. The league's full of players who wouldn't have got a game 10 years ago and I doubt it's bottomed out yet. Now we're about to bin our 3rd manager in 2 seasons, so there's more money that could be spent on players that will be needed in January gone. I really hoped he could at least limp through till the end of the season, but tonight must've put paid to that.

Pointing out that Ross County are buoyant under a new manager in that post match interview might not be the wisest move.

Could you no drop him off in the car park? We can't afford the repair bill.

First up, just to be clear - at no point have I suggested you shouldn't be able to express a view on here. Where did you get that from? What you see as being defeatist and challenging, I see as being realistic. No, the board won't resign in the morning. Will any CEO they appoint recommend they go? And if they did bugger off, who replaces them? Others have said it often enough - if Motherwell want a better standard of player being managed by an experienced boss who is currently doing well elsewhere, it's gonnae cost money. I don't know the details of our current financial position, but I'm betting there's no that much hidden under the bed, so outside investment will be needed if the club is to go down a different path. Would it be negative to suggest that looks unlikely?

And there's your problem. If you want rid of the board because you believe they're incompetent when it comes to appointing managers, why would you trust them with appointing someone to oversee a plan for the next 5 or 10 years?

Who hires the new CEO?

It might need it, but how will that happen?

The comment you've quoted was based on us drawing tonight, not getting skelped.

It was quite brief, but not brief enough on the day.

This is reminiscent of Lasley's reign.

John Hughes, then.

Lambert and McCall want the Motherwell job?

BOGOF

If I find anyone who's actually happy about how we've been playing, I'll tell them to sit doon. Preferably on their hands.

We're definitely improving Derek Adams' life at the moment.

Why, what've they done?
