Spiderpig Posted September 4 Report Share Posted September 4 On 9/2/2025 at 5:53 PM, joewarkfanclub said: The only thing Im unsure of is how good he is with the ball at his feet. His distribution was better than Kelly's, but thays a really low bar and what JBA wants from his keeper is way beyond that. Be interesting to see what happens. How JBA wants Ward to play is not the issue here. The problem is Ward's continuing inability to meet one of the fundamental requirements of being a goal keeper, ie catching the ball, how many points does he cost us before he gets benched. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to a bereavement I will not be able to travel to the game. I have 2 x Adult tickets (£52). Happy to sell for £35. I could take one off you if you would sell them one at a time. Sorry for your loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh aye, totally get that. But if we swap Ox in as a safe pair of hands and he ends up giving goals away because he is shite with his feet and JBA insists he plays out anyway, we really arent any further forward. Hopefully he is good enough..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texanwellfan Posted September 6 Report Share Posted September 6 We can probably live with goalkeeping error now and again but unfortunately that’s 2 games in a row where it’s been a major contributor to loosing points. So the frequency and consequences of the mistakes have put a lot of focus there. Had we not dropped points or had they been a few games apart then perhaps there would not be the same impetus to get Ox back in goals. Personally, I would give Ox a run out but I think JBA will stick with Ward for the Dundee game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could now go on a run where he doesn’t make any mistakes for the next 3 months so I’m still happy to let him stay in goals for the next game at least unless JBA has different ideas.

texanwellfan Posted Monday at 01:39 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 01:39 PM Back to real fitba this weekend. If we can manage to get our first win here it could be a good day for us, position wise, depending of course, on results going our way. Regardless, picking up 3 points is always good.

grizzlyg Posted Tuesday at 08:34 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 08:34 PM Just played 90 mins in new Zealand today and played a lot of game previously. With long flight back I think wise to bench him. Plenty options with Charles cooke and Hendry to consider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mio Posted Wednesday at 11:59 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 11:59 AM Is it not Saturday yet? Not sure what JBA has put in the Motherwell water supply but I’m really looking forward to this one. Heading up to dens for the first time since our cup game just before Covid. it’ll not be easy but if we play as we can we’ll win it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To keep playing him and reject a supposed profitable offer on him. I will go with the manager on this one for the now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texanwellfan Posted 50 minutes ago Report Share Posted 50 minutes ago Be interesting to see our line up Goalie? I think probably Ward fullback? Will Johnny start CB’s? Will new guy start? Gordon? O’Donnell? midfield? Slattery back? up front? Stama? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
