St Mirren v Motherwell 30/08/2026

[couttsy]

So both pundits on Sportscene agree it’s a foul in the lead up to the 1st St Mirren goal. Both pundits agree the missed penalty should have been retaken. The fact that Clancy needed to see the handball on a tv despite having a great view in real time sums up how bad he was. The standard of officiating is at an all time low in Scotland but as usual it’ll be swept under the carpet as it’s not against Rangers or Celtic.

You can be  a silly sossage with some of your jokes at times  but they're usually better than my unspoken ones.

Sorry, I'm  in a Kanga dwam  and everything is rosy at the mo 😂🤣😁.

AJ obviously spotted Kanga so hopefully today is a great sign.  3yr deal plus year option so if he comes good then we have a huge asset

Just watched the highlights. Wild that the pen was not retaken. Gogic after the miss is affecting the play and denies Tawanda the ability to get the ball. How is that missed by VAR. Mental.

Not sure about the fouls before the goals. Would have been soft and if it happened to us we would have been raging. 

Some finish from the new boy. Not seen a goal like that in a while.

It's certainly a great start for Jardell and I have little doubt he will develop into something special ✊.

That was a thoroughly entertaining game courtesy of two teams looking to play open and incisive football with a fair amount of quality.

I’m not quite sure what to make of the three goals conceded in nine minutes. We did look lightweight but this time last year I thought we were destined to lose a bundle of goals but went on to achieve a ridiculous number of clean sheets.

I would have taken a draw at 3pm after our Euro exertions and so I'm happy with the result. However, I'm not impressed by the manner of it after having been 2 goals up then losing 3 in a crazy 10 minute spell. That can't all be put down to tiredness. Plenty of positives though like TJ getting back on the scoresheet and our debutant scoring a cracker.  Also a few returning from injury. 

However, we are short of a fit right back just now and I'm not sure our defence has the height and physicality to cope with rivals. Midfield also seems talented but lightweight. Its a young side we have and we seem to lack leadership and experience. 

Early days and our season won't really begin until after next weekend, but  a few concerns starting to emerge.

I thought 1st goal should have been chalked off for a foul and I think our keeper shouldn't be getting beat at the near post for the second. However it is what it is and keeper saved us going 4-2 down

Watched the game on a terrible feed which kept freezing in a hotel room so when it happened in the 93rd minute I switched off the tablet, got ready and went out for the evening, WTF? Was my thought when I just checked in on here. Happier man now

Think I’m possibly the only person on here unconvinced with the keeper 

 

2nd half though he did make some brilliant saves ( hard to see from other end of the stadium but looked decent ) to keep us in it 

 

some goal from the new boy but before that unconvincing from the build up people were giving him on here from YouTube ( goal was top level though & it’s a difficult 1 to come into some time will tell )

 

mentioned earlier about a right back, got the feeling personally it’s a year too far for O’Donnell, their left winger was decent though 

 

also mentioned another centre mid to take some of the load of fadinger, looked really tired today

 

Good point in the end
