Went for Lamie thought he was excellent today, special mention for Roberts. and O'Donnell who also had véry good games .

Irrelevant why, a red card is merited if the tackle is high, reckless, dangerous, out of control, denies a goal scoring opportunity etc none of which applies to Mugabi's tackle today. He made contact with the ball 1st, granted he followed through and also caught the player so it was a booking at worst. Colum could not wait to show the red card he has well known previous for shite decisions like that and he confirmed how much of a useless wanker he was by ignoring a blatant elbow in Donnelly's face later in the game. So yes it was relevant, as it forced us to play for 89 mins with a man down due to a shocking decision by a shite referee but as we know they answer to nobody so we have to put up with their incompetence . I have no issues being beaten by a better side but when the ref makes a James Hunt of it a minute in and hands Hibs a massive advantage its hard to take.

Don't talk shite never a feckin red card watch the highlights especially the slow motion replay mugabi makes contact with the ball, that wee wank colum could not wait to show the red, sooner we have var the better, 1st minute of the game a feckin shocking decision, at worst a yellow, the useless arsehole cost us the game today.

You would never be at Fir Park over the years if poor form was a factor in your going or not. However if we win all the stay away fans and day trippers will be there in their thousands at Hampden it the Motherwell way. Personally I think we will pump Hibs on Sunday and set us up for a semi final, a top 6 finish and a shot at Europe I will be there as usual.

I would agree with those two, but I live in hope that GA will abandon his obsession with 4-3-3 and play 4-4-2 then I would have Tierney and Shaw in beside them. Then we might have a midfield that's not going to be overrun and can create something for the front 2,instead of the long ball hit and hope we are playing just now.

Woolery for me never stopped running, his final ball is a bit suspect at times but he looked the most likely to create something today.

I never said that, all I was pointing out was as crap as we have been there is no need for panic, pant wetting or calling for GA to get punted, this could still turn out to be a good season.

There is no place on this forum for sensible chat like that.

The worst team in the league that are still 10 points behind us, another couple of wins for us ( no feckin idea where they will come from) will see us 4th or 5th and in the Euro places, no need for panic just yet, so away and wring your pants out.

I have to agree he is brutal taking O'Hara off and leaving him on was a feckin joke today.

Away and stop talking shite we have been utter dross for months and we a still only 1 point off 4th ffs that's how bad the league is this year

Going by your logic we should be playing 11 boys from the colts team as every player on Wednesday was brutal, so give us who you would be playing today then.

Did you watch KVV last night in a team that was brutal he was the worst, nothing stuck to him, he looked well off the pace, and contributed feck all all night, its either sugar or shite with him the odd great performance every 3 or 4 games so no wonder he gets criticism .

Penalty my Arse the initial contact is at least a yard outside the box, as the pictures show and the RC player is already going down, the only reason he gets anywhere near the box is because he dives forward into it, as I have said a shocking decision

Spot on Dave the initial minimal contact was well outside the box and as the pictures show the RC player was already on his way down well before he got to the box but diving forward to make sure he made the line. At best it was a Foul outside the box even then it would have been a soft one but never a penalty Beaton was conned big time and got no help from the linesman, the sooner we get VAR the better.

Some perspective is required here, we have been feckin brutal since Christmas, very rarely playing the same team two weeks in a row, struggling to score goals etc but as it stands we are still only 2 points away from a European spot and due to play a Hibs team who have been equally shite as well for a place in the Scottish cup semi finals ffs There are 12 points on offer before the split so we still have a very good chance to secure a top 6 place, a Euro spot, a cup semi final place and another season in the premiership so for me that would be a very good return for the season. You never get judged on where you start , it's the finish that matters.

The RC player is already going down with minimal or no contact, nowhere near the ball, there would not be a long VAR review gor that one, no penalty.

Not even close to being a penalty,

An absolute shitfest of a game both teams offered feck all, think we had 3 or 4 shots on target and the best chance of the match at the end , RC had 2 ffs, Shocking decision for the pen, Beaton made a right James Hunt of that one. But all that said we are still only 2 pointos off 4th but we need to start winning again very soon.

Aye going back to the championship with a 100k a year contract will be a real struggle for him.

Is anyone surprised, with the exception of the playoff games (utter shite Rangers team) and the league cup semi in 2018 it has been the same pish since 2006 I think, we never turn up we will beat them one day but given they are a massive step up in Quality from where we are it won't be anytime soon, thoroughly depressing stuff all roundto be honest

It's all too close for me, 5 points separating 4th to 10th there is no room for error, but after tomorrow the Ross County and Dundee games are massive 6 points from those 2 would just about secure the top 6 finish and a shot at Europe

He's been at Fir park a few years now and for me there is a reason he is 3rd choice keeper I.e he's not that good. So maybe it's time for him to move on and find regular football elsewhere probably in league 1 or 2.

STV news reporting that Steven Robinson is the preferred candidate for the St Mirren job, done deal apparently.

That sort of implies the more tackles etc that Mugabi is involved in the more mistakes he makes, that's not helping your point in defending him.
