Well he would be right to be raging cos the manager brought on players that couldnt lace his boots irrespective of what condition you may think he's in. Fuck me Robinsons brain isnt connected to his feet and as for Tavares I'm lost for words.

Likewise , Im so angry at that today. I can take defeat , christ I'm a Motherwell fan so it a prerequisite , but that today was avoidable. Not saying wed have won but we'd have gone down fighting whereas we just meekly let that game away from us. ALL SK fault.

he still have been better than the utter dross that came on. 2 stone over weight and blind he'd have been better.

When you set out not to win that's exactly what happens. Watt must be fuckin raging at that today.

For me the bigger mess is the midfield. The guys up front get nothing.

You also need as manager who doesn't think 11 men behind a ball and boot it long will achieve anything.

The game was screaming out for someone who could give us a breather and give the rest of the team an out (Watt) and I do'nt give a fuck if some don't like him he has hold up play in his locker and fouls a plenty and thats where we score most of our goals. That was fuckin abysmal from start to finish and lies squarely with SK. Said he would go out not to lose not to win and he did exactly that..... pathetic utterly pathetic

did we what was that result ....

I would dispute Utd were the better team.

Only saw the first half can only assume we improved second half. We cannot play against even a piss poor Rangers team the way we did for most of the first half tonight. THat said it's all about results right now and that was an outstanding result. Confidence should be high but let's play football not football on Sunday.

its important in the sense we don't want to get into the same kind of spiral we hit at this time last year and thats more down to keeping confidence up. However you are correct in terms of points / position its nothing big.

Over 8000 is pretty good particularly when you are facing one half of the OF. I just fear SK will set us up to try not to lose rather than set out to win.

Agreed, SK will set out to stifle them for 70 mins and have a go if we are still in it at that point. However we are likely to be 2-0 down before that point. Big difference Rangers are pish in relation to Celtic but we are unlikely to capitalise on it. Anyone know if the scum supporters of Celtic managed to leave the ground intact this time.

Because the league is run by two clubs for two clubs

The behaviour of their scum supporters is easily rectified. Two strikes and its a 6 point deduction. However the SPFL is run to suit two clubs so the the tough effective decisions will never be made.

and the ground wrecked just like they do on every visit to Fir Park. I heard Celtic refused to pay for the damage the last time and Motherwell are having to refer it to the SPFL board.

Expectation always weighs heavy on us . Has done for my 45 years watching us. Very Frustrating cos Dundee were nearly as bad as us. Was Sparrow injured? .. Davor and Halliday in midfield just doesnt do it for me. Anyone know why Stama ran off the pitch and straight up the tunnel?

Apparently over 6200 sold. I don't suspect we will need our option for 14,500.

I think these broadcasts are excellent and give a good insight into how decisions arrived at. It will never be perfect but at least they are trying to explain it , errors and all. I'm still amazed the St Mirren player didn't get sent off for booting the Kilmarnock defender twice. That was a real shocker but at least they held their hands up they got it wrong but doesnt help Kilmarnock.

Really good small goalkeepers are the exception rather than the norm. Andy Goram being the exception. I always thought Kelly was too wee and didn't command his 6 yard box which OX does and the difference is so noticeable. Kelly wasn't all bad but for me I like a big towering keeper.

Its not as easy as that. He has already signed an extension to be fair the club, he could have legged it before signing the last extension. I don't see him doing it again. I think both him and the club will cash in in the next 12 moths and considering he could have pissed off for nothing a year back I think we cant complain if both parties do.

This is a real barometer game for me. Historically rising expectations is difficult for us to handle and often we fail. Most Motherwell fans will go into this game expecting us to win. If we can I'll maybe be convinced the current good form isnt just a flash in the pan blip this season.

A dominant goalkeeper makes a huge difference

Its Dundee at home - they've won one league game since the clocks went forward in March, we've gotta be looking at 3 points in that one , Utd must be a chance of a point, Celtic will just be a loss, those bastards are just too hard to beat.

Perfect summary of the game, player performances and the way it all panned out.
