Tbh, we're going to have to beat somebody at least as good as Inverness (and probably better) to win the cup.
On second thoughts, I just realised this is a team that lost to Ian Baraclough... twice. We should be pumping this mob.
Really hope that's not true. Offers something different and a bit more quality than Johnson. Not sure my heart can take losing Lionel and Vigurs in the space of a year either.
Okay. Try this :
Scott Macdonald has scored as many goals in 23 SPFL appearances as Dougie Imrie has in 47. His arrival seen us go from a run of 4 points out of a possible 27 to 15/33. He had a pretty obvious positive influence on Lee Erwin, who went on to net us a few hundred thousand pounds.
There's a reason Scott Macdonald has played in the Champions League and Dougie Imrie spent his career bouncing around mediocrity in Scotland.
He was an integral part of the joint highest placed Motherwell team in living memory and was one of the best a bad bunch in the next season before being dropped.
Sure, clapping opposition goals might be a tad cringeworthy -but not nearly as much as people abusing the guy for two years and then booing him for no apparent reason when he came back. Probably the same type that insist he "stole a wage" tbh.
The decision to get rid of Vigurs gets all the more ridiculous when you consider our absolutely dire midfield options.
Re the game today, I actually really enjoyed it. Could easily have finished 2 or 3 each.
