  1. Some of our attacking play,bass been a delight to watch,in all of his games.If. you counted the number of goals we should have scored,sitters,the light at the end of the tunnel would be a Lott brighter. Next two games,crucial.Let’s hope someone puts him right about the defence.

  2. 3 points thankfully. Concerned— big time about the set-up. Half decent team will punish us.

     

     

    Elsewhere, Dickinson bails out his team again denying a stonewaller in 90th minute which he had a perfect view of. Motherwell manager calls “ him out and VAR for denying a certain penalty. No explanation is possible.”

     

     

    Collum is giving Beaton and Dickinson games where they can help their team —- without any punishment. SFA can’t run a legit operation in Scotland.

     

     

    Our silence is aiding and abetting the cheating.

    Chaos reigns unfortunately with this manager and team.

     

     

    Next two games are pivotal and how many on here can honestly see us getting 6 points from them.

     

     

    Motherwell are way ahead of Livvy and will not waste their chances.

     

     

    the Huns? Well organised and will cause us huge problems at set pieces.

     

     

    The manager is a nice guy but nice guys don’e always succeed…

    A good day today. I’ll take a 4-2 on that pitch against Livi all day.

     

     

    …..and C40 no injuries.

     

     

    Did you note the decrease on reliance of Calmac today? not a criticism of Cal,he played his part,with a couple of stray ones,not that uber reliant Csl as others stepped up imo

     

     

    Still edgy,reminded me P4 v P5 school game that 1st ten mins.

     

     

    HH

  5. We should stick Benji up front, guy knows how to score, wouldn’t be missing the sitters that Kenny and Maeda have this season

  6. A win’s a win for a’ that.

     

    Not convinced but Nygren is a player and a half. Great inside forward.

     

    Don’t think Kenny would score in a brothel

  7. Our silence is aiding and abetting the cheating.

     

    Our silence is good for business.

     

    ………………………………..

     

    Next two games are pivotal and how many on here can honestly see us getting 6 points from them.

     

    Hope I am wrong but we will be lucky to get 2 IMO, our defence is a disaster and we are struggling to score.

     

    …………………….

     

    The second half today and against Dun Utd, he had no clue how to change things, like many others I worry big time.

    If three at the back was a successful system, why are every other football team not using it ?

     

     

    Lots of teams do. Roma and Braga have both given us a lesson at Parkhead in how it can work.

  9. Missed the game having a delightful lunch in town with my sister, my niece and my daughter so cannot comment on the game but have a response from this on previous blog.

    “It matters not who is to blame for the situation we find ourselves, but it is imperative we rectify it.”

     

     

    We cannot rectify this mess without first pinning the blame where it unequivocally belongs, and removing those responsible to ensure it never happens again.

     

    =============

     

    To fix a problem the cause has to be identified because it can be one of three things or all of three things but the first step is.

     

     

    The Policy

     

     

    The Process to execute the policy as The Board have decided.

     

     

    The people who are responsible for delivering the policy.

     

     

    Otherwise the correct solution will not be found.

     

     

    It is not a blame game it is finding the correct solution to the actual problem.

  10. MON played 3 at the back in his hey day.

     

     

    Man U play 3, though not a great endorsemeant :O)

     

     

    The team with the better players will usually win the game no matter the formations.

  11. As I said in previous post I missed the game to have lunch in The Citizen with my sister, niece and my daughter who heads back to NY on Monday.

     

     

    Tales of the Calton in my dads day gave the kids an idea why their parents were well lets say “odd” by their standards, not living in a time when thieving was a way of life.

     

     

    My pork chop was delicious btw.

     

     

    Sounds like I escaped 90 minutes of anxiety and my observation on reading comments on bus home is that watching Celtic dominate games for years, where after 30 mins we had full control, is that the certainty that brings has gone under WN.

     

     

    Under WN although we lost 6 league points we are only 3 behind with a game in hand and our nearest rivals below us are a wee bit further away.

     

     

    Nothing is certain which is something we have to get used to and perhaps enjoy?

     

     

    If you cannot change the world then change how you see it.

     

     

    I can only say this free of the anxiety of watching us play so have to practice what I preach.

     

     

    Lunch was in The Citizen in St Vincent Street. I can recommend it.

     

     

    Reading post match blogs is like Moriarty in action.

    the ref in the aberdeen game just blew for full time 2 minutes 58 seconds into 4 minutes of injury time.

     

     

    strange.

  18. the long wait is over on

    LUCKY CODY on 27TH DECEMBER 2025 6:42 PM

     

     

    That was a stonewall penalty for Motherwell, even the “neutral” pundits on Sportscene thought so , even if they (a former Rangers player and the current manager of the Rangers women’s team) couldn’t find it in themselves actually to say so.

     

     

    And , yes, if you are reading this from outside Scotland and don’t get BBC Sportscene , the only pundit on Sportscene, apart from the anchor, is the current manager of the Rangers women’s team.

     

     

    Neutral and independent my arse.

  19. Motherwell have come away from Govan feeling like they should’ve at least had the opportunity to draw level from the spot.

     

     

    The controversy arose late on when Lukas Fadinger drove into the box and appeared to trip over Emmanuel Fernandez’s outstretched leg

     

     

     

     

    Tripped over ….ffs The Hun online

    Snap!

     

     

    Hadn’t seen your post before repeating your point.

  21. the long wait is over on

    Neither Ralston nor Yang are comfortable , to put it kindly, in a back 3.

     

     

    Ralston gets pulled out of position too easily and when he does Yang isn’t giving him the effective cover needed.

  22. the long wait is over on

    More accurately – aren’t comfortable with a back 3 -clearly Yang doesn’t play in one as such.

  23. TURKEYBHOY

     

     

    Just because I come on and slate Maeda for his poor form doesn’t automatically mean I believe every other player was world class. Of course Kenny was crap today, as was Ralston, but I was talking about Maeda.

     

     

    Here’s a wee tip. When you’re so obsessed with slating another poster’s every comment by default, you tend to forget all logic and make a complete arse of yourself.

     

     

    So there you are.

  24. Sportscene tonight affirms my decision to stop paying the licence fee. Hun supporting referee cheats Motherwell. BBC analysis offered by two Huns.

  25. Tom, I agree with you, Maeda is technically very poor,no control way too often, will be shocked if anyone offers decent money to buy him.

  26. The 3 – 4- 3 debate: two points.

     

     

    1. MON back in the day played 5 – 3 -2. Agathe and Thompson were full backs first, wing backs second. We defended really well with 3 big, strong central defenders – e.g. Balde, Mjalby, Vangaeren. Arsenal today are the same, with fast full backs who can track back or invert.

     

     

    2. My issue with WN’s system is not the he doesn’t have the players. The players he does have don’t understand what he wants. Defensively there is no plan, no structure. There is just panic if we lose the ball. We are the most disorganised defensive team in the league – and that is a scandal.

     

     

    Next two games give me fear; the fact that if we fail to win either of them he won’t be sacked makes me think the league is not ours. And that is another scandal given how poor the rest of the league is.

  27. Had anyone saw the score without seeing the game their reaction would have been…. Yes!!!

     

    Fact is though every opposing team has breached the Wilfried Line, and our next two opponents are third and fourth in the SPL, though the team in third only as a result of blatant refereeing decisions in their favour in recent weeks. Nothing new to add to what has already been said apart from saying that a back three should include three centre backs and not two fullbacks. Cannot see goal free defending any time soon.

  28. Under Nancy, we will lose the benefit of winning the league because there’s no chance this man is taking us through a CL play off in the summer.

     

     

    That tie, should it happen, will be dead within 30 minutes.

  29. THE LONG WAIT IS OVER on 27TH DECEMBER 2025 9:02 PM

     

     

     

    You’d need a few Yangs to cover the space left. It’s absolutely vast.
