Motherwell v Hibernian 25/11/2025

[Richie]

Think the attendance was announced as 6 thousand and something

Thanks for that might be a bigger crowd on Saturday

Does anyone remember the 25th of Oct, half time, when we were 1-0 down to livi ??

There was relegation chat and 'does the manager have a clue' chat.

Things have changed a bit 😉

Given the wholesale changes about everything we do, i'd have been happy with a consolidation season to develop the new style and let the players get used to it, weed out the ones who weren't going to cut it and maybe get a couple in, with a view to being a well developed side next season. To be fair, I think it's coming together really well, and the football tonight was just brilliant at times. We've shown periods of what we can do, but tonight we were great. Don't forget we were already playing well before the pen and the sending off. Everyone was proper 'on it' tonight and the players who came in were clearly up for giving the manager a selection headache.

[Richie]

Yeah, will be at least 9k on Sat I'd imagine

Attendance tonight was approx. 6500 with 1500 hibs fans. Not bad for a mid-week game.

Hearts bringing 4.800 apparently, so should be a great crowd.

And 3pm kick off on a Saturday. 

What a time to be alive!

Radio Scotland absolutely gushing in their praise for our performance...more or less saying we toyed with Hibs

As they should...............................because we did.

[wellfan]

Superb. We completely strolled that.

Brilliant night, not one failure. Thought Priestman was outstanding.

Great to be ahead and hardly feel at any point they were getting back in the game.

If I'm being greedy, which I am, another goal or two would have been no more than we deserved.

Well that was a surprising line up. But you know I didn't even concern myself with it . That's how much belief I have in the managers tactics and reading of the opposition and his team selection.  That's us now played everyone and no one has been better than us over the 90 mins of any of the league games. We should fear absolutely no one. Tonight was a sheer pleasure to watch, what a game Priestman had. I would like the job of picking from that squad these days. Also a big shout out to Koutroumbis for that quite incredible interception to prevent Hibs getting on back. Had a fiver on us to win 3-0 but cashed out at £18. The cash out got to £28 but fell like a stone from 70th minute.

Even before the sending off that is one of the most controlled and professional performances I have ever seen from a Motherwell side. 
 

Over 700 passes - I doubt we managed that in a full Graham Alexander season.

[thewelllfan]

That's the most controlled Motherwell performance I've ever seen to a man they were all excellent and other than the 1 Koutrombis cleared off the line they barley created a chance.

Preistman and Welsh were the standouts for me. Welsh probably the best CB we've had since Kipre and Preistman looked like he'd been starting in there all season. The teams gave Jens some selection headaches ahead of Hearts on Saturday that's for sure.

[Coatsy]

Best Motherwell performance i've ever seen, total control against a Hibs team that are expected to be in the top 4 WOW take a bow. Changes selection and formation this team couldn't make 2 passes last year its a joy going to the games now.
