Motherwell v Dundee United 02/09/2026

Another big crowd at Fir Park. Will this be the one we get the three points? Will Stama get on the bench?

Another goal filled game?
Hopefully with us scoring them all against Utd.

For those of us who don’t live in the future in the southern hemisphere, the game is on 2 September.

Utd had great result yesterday so will be on a high but lets get right behind the lads and release the Kanga!!

I can text the result Wednesday and they can nip down to Ladbrooks and put £200 on it Thursday morning.

I'd happily settle for a draw in this one.

Would be good to get 3 points here as its a home game against a beatable opponent.

However, its just another game in the series of games with no real break or preparation in between, asking yet more of our players who have been full on for over a month now.

Dundee United have been a bit of an enigma in their performances and results so far, but the nature of their win on Saturday must give them confidence, despite being without their manager at the moment.

Id guess we will see more rotation within the squad and it will depend exactly how that plays out what success we can expect.

I will settle for us putting in another good performance and standing by our principles. Hopefully we can get our structure correct and minimise the goals against to give us the opporrunity to win it.

A point would be acceptable. 3 points great.

That’s the best we’ll get. I don’t see where our next win is coming from.

0-0

0-0 is far too positive for you. We are doomed 🤣🤣

Another game coming thick and fast. I think the squad must be looking forward to the international break. It’s really needed for the players to get a rest, players to get fit and fans to regenerate their bank accounts.

if we can get 3 points from the next two games I will be overjoyed but I think the best we can get is two draws…. Which I would accept happily as well.

Plenty. Almost as much as I do on here to be honest.

It’s a pity I’m not a troll because I would be pretty good at it going by the amount of bites I get from people who would try and pretend that they don’t care.

I’ve almost got celebrity status on here come to think of it.

You know what’s worse than a troll?

Them who keep feeding them.

Anyway, more important things to talk about on this match thread.

If that's defined by being a contrary pest, enjoy your fame.

Whats worse than being a troll is trolls who say there are more important things to talk about than being a troll.

I am the arbitar of these things.

[joewarkfanclub]

Trolls should live under bridges and be scared of Big Billy Goats....

[Mad Dog]

The Arabs had a great result at the weekend, so they'll be full of confidence coming into this one. I'll go for our favourite scoreline - 4-3.

It was against Kilmarnock who are brutal, so not a good indicator of Dundee untds abilities, but i agree with you, a home win for me as well.

[weeyin]

Killie are brutal, but unfortunately that result will boost the confidence of the players who were struggling to score.

Still going for a home win, and think me might start with the team that finished on Sunday to give some players a break.

[texanwellfan]

On a brighter note, they have conceded 7 goals. Only Killie have conceded more. 13

Utd have scored same number as us but 4 of their 5 goals were against Killie.

Keep posting MJC. I don't often agree with you but I enjoy reading your posts. Its very rare in life that someone is 100% wrong or 100% right all of the time. We need all shades of opinion on these boards. If anyone is not open to considering other people's opinions then they have a closed mind.  Personally, I like to consider other points of view, even opposite ones to mine, to shape my own opinions.
