Dont care about the score as long as we have 1 more goal than Killie..the only danger they have is Boyd so he will need watching. A win for the good guys and another 3 points.

By bigger i was referring to history, honours won, time spent in top divisions, fan base and average attendences over the years, European participation..etc etc. And i think on all of these we can be classed as a bigger club. But you are right the more sucess we have the fans expectations change so finishing above ICT and STJ etc is expected every season.

Good post, i agree we are a bigger club than STJ, ICT and the like. A top six finish and challenging for a European place is expected of us now so the media dont pay any attention. The media are desperate for a replacement team to talk shite about till Sevco get back to the SPfl, hence the wankfest we have just now over Aberdeen and Untd.

Agreed the SFA are shit scared of upsetting either of those two..but UEFA rules are clear re new clubs and to them Rangers are a diddy club so it wont happen. It would be nice to see UEFA slapping them down though

County were pish..Neilsen never had a save to make. Dissapointing to concede late on but a good 3 points, impressed by Reid today he put a great shift in but yet again another half arsed done feck all game from Ainsworth he did not look interested

Doh..My fault...i thought the sheeps game in hand was against STJ You are right we want them into the final with Untd

Neilsen for me, he was never worked too hard but everything stuck to him, and good saves when required a good solid perfomance.

I hope not , St J are 16 behind us so they wont catch us, but we are in with a good chance of finnishing 2nd again. A win against Aberdeen will cancel the game in hand the Sheep have on us and undo the damage of us losing 2 points against Hibs. 2 successive seasons as "the best of the rest" would be a massive achievement for Motherwell, especially after losing the players we did, so i want a ST J win or at least a draw.

The ideal scenario for Motherwell is an Aberdeen / Untd final as that would ensure that 4th place gets Europe, (assuming that both of them finish in the top 4). The cup runners up only get Europe if the winners have already qualified for a higher tournament i.e. the champions league, so as Celtic are out that wont happen, so St J will need to win it to get Europe, unless they finish 2nd or 3rd in the league. As for Sevco, thay are barred from Europe for 3 years so they wont qualify even if they win it ( which if there is a god he will ensure that it wont happen ).

A good result tonight, ICT had a lot of possesion but no cutting edge, i thought Nielsen was good tonight 1 or 2 balls he should have come for but all in a solid performance. Strange decision by SMC to take Faddy off he was our best player by a distance tonight and leave Ainsworth on !!! As he had contributed feck all after he scored. But 2 goals, a clean sheet and joint 2nd in the league a good nights work by the team.

I was not at the game but just watched highlights and in all honesty i cant see why people are blaming Hollis for any of the goals. Hibs 1st central defence not clearing the ball and not stopping the header, the 2nd goal again Hibs player gets a free header, as for the 3rd Heffernan runs wide and nobody goes with him Murray i think is ball watching and lets him go. But i have to agree we are feckin shit at defending set pieces

Any game we dont lose is a good result..100% record against the bottom 6 gone..but we are still on course for 2nd or 3rd place so a good day.

Its nothing to do with trying to limit the away fans influence..its about some high viz vest wearing jobsworth fuckwit full of their own self importance pandering to complaints about too much noise at a football ground ffs...no wonder the beautiful game in this country is in the state its in.

Good to see it on BBC site...the media needs to pick this up and get right into Hibs and show people how feckin ridiculous they are. Scottish football needs all the help it can get and these fuckwits are complaining about fans being noisy FFS..you could not make it up No boycott though turn up in numbers sing and make as much noise as you can, pump them and get it right up them.

We only need a point to confirm a top 6 place, but Hibs are pish so i expect all 3 to continue our challenge to be the best of the rest Not bothered about the score, as long as its 1 more than Hibs.

Faddy for me, back to his best a class apart from everybody else. Thought Vigurs and Reid had excellent games as well

Why is it bad news for Hollis...Nielsen might not get back in the team ? Hollis was excellent today, nothing to do but came for the ball, spilled nothing and distributed the ball well. It was obvious the rest of the team had more confidence in him than Neilsen.

Great stuff from us today, never in any danger, Faddy was back on form, a class apart from everybody else on the park. I was impressed by Reid today he has some pace, tackles well and looks solid on the ball could be a good bit of business by SMC. All in all a great win to get back on track, a clean sheet would have been nice but scoring 4 at home we cant complain. PS Hearts are feckin dreadful

MFC twitter reporting Hammell and Anier are on the injured list now....is SMC still registered as a player we might need him

What dont we deserve...after 26 games we have taken 70% of the total points on offer and as a result are 3rd in the league. Carry on that percentage in the last 12 games and we will have a 72 point total our highest ever in the SPL. So feck off and dont talk shite.

Not seen the game so cant comment on Neilsens performance and agree with statements re the other results. But as i said its hardly a crisis 2 bad results dissapointing as they are but we are still well placed to finish 2nd or 3rd and claim another European adventure. There are lots of points to play for so why not get behind the team instead of hurling abuse at players, Neilsen in particular. I am not his biggest fan but at the moment he is our no 1 so deserves some support

With the other results as they are its shaping up to be a bad night. However as it stands we are 4 behind Aberdeen with a game in hand and anotber 11 games left after that so its hardly a crisis. Its 1 1/2 bad games ffs and the pant wetting is at feckin Tsunami levels so lets just keep the faith and believe.

I wonder if Vincent Lunny will be watching the highlights and offering Goodwin a ban....but i wont be holding my breath waiting for it.

We will win, St J are 15 points behind us for a reason, i.e they are not that good they have struggled all season and are being caught by the bottom 6. Keep the faith a win and 2nd place for the good guys

Sutton for me.. he had pish poor service all night but he put himself about and looked interested, put a good shift in. Scoring the pen was the only bright spot in a shocking team effort, so he gets my vote
