We'll be lucky to get anywhere near half a mill for Declan given his contract situation. The big man has gone from a free transfer in the SPFL to a national hero and being linked with Premier League clubs. Delighted for him.

With Celtic at Easter Road we could be 7 off of 4th with a game in hand on Saturday evening, an excellent incentive with our following league game being Hibs at Fir Park. Gonna go 1-0 to us, Watt with an early goal. Also can see Archer coming in from the start for this one.

Qualifying for major competitions, topping our Nations League group and then gurning like fuck coz we lose our first game in ten is the Scottish way.

He's got one cap in a friendly. He's got an outside chance if he can keep up his form and score a good few goals.

McCann and Naismith singing Dec's praises on Sportscene. Very pleasing.

Completely agree re Dykes. He is head and shoulders above McBurnie, who did nothing but jog about and fall over when he came on.

Will be astounded if Gallagher is a Motherwell player come the end of January after that tonight. The big man was fucking immense.

Brutal. Steve Clarke gotta give the team talk of his life here.

Serbia are wildly average, thought they'd be a lot better than this. What a chance for us over the next hour.

Not related to the discussion, but absolutely phenomenal from Tierney here...

Think this is an excellent post. Anyone who thinks that even a below par Celtic side are even remotely beatable need to give themselves a shake. They've won 4 trebles in a row and have Edouard on the bench to bring on for fuck sake! I cannot fucking stand them, and I detest getting beat by them, but the cold harsh truth is that in the grand scheme of things they are actually really good.

I expect we'll see Archer in from the start next game.

It's the hope that kills you.

Goal! Come on!

Was a wee bit quiet in these match threads when we were scudding County and Livi.

Embarrassing from Lang there. We're still in the game here, playing reasonably well going forward. Far too much space for Frimpong though, McGinley needs to get out to him quicker or Polworth has to step out and help him faster. Ahh fuck off. Game over.

That's 5 or 6 free kicks/corners we've had so far and every one of them has been gash. Get Polworth off the set pieces please. When do we ever ever score from them!?

Polworth with a poor pass. I don't have a problem with trying to keep the ball in that area, but you absolutely cannot get it wrong.

Given we can't pay to watch this I don't feel bad posting links. Feel free to post your own. http://www.hesgoal.com/news/71242/Motherwell_vs_Celtic.html

An unchanged side. Wee bit surprised Long didn't get the nod, Robbo seems to favour him against tougher teams, but glad he has kept it the same. Get wired in Motherwell!

Is that Rab C Nesbitt on commentary?

Hopefully we can drill the final nail into Lennon's coffin. 2-1 to us, Watt and Polworth.

I thought he was gash against County and said so but he did very well against Livingston.
