You can keep playing balls out from the back all game, nothing wrong with that. What you need is good judgement not to play the ball to a man inside the box if their is an opponent just about in his shorts. If there is no option / player in safe space to play out from the back you need to go long. Doesn't need a wholesale abandonment on a style that actually creates alot of space. The reason we got alot of space in the first 60/65 mins is because we played it our from the back and got the ball into good space.

Correct Ward will take the heat off Priestman for his absolute fuck all effort to prevent the 3rd goal. Stood with his finger up his arse admiring the view as the Celtic player strode into the box to receive the pass to set up the goal. Osong is utterly dreadful too

26 years old, signed 12 different contracts since being with us, been utter shite in every one other than his 10 game burst at Motherwell. He's the reason it's sometimes better to jump at the big payday. A 4 year contract with Rangers on a reputed 5 grand a Week. Should be a wealthy young man whose done fuck all to merit a life changing contract. But hey good luck to him wish I could get my money as easy.

I would imagine, if sustained, the first significant upturn in attendances in 20 years will also reinforce that fans want entertained. The die hards like myself will turn up every week no mater the shite on show but fans who pick n choose need more than blind loyalty to part with £25 every second week.

This is our marker for the league title 😁😜

I think we stand a better chance of a result against Celtic than we've done for a while because we won't just keep giving them possession every two seconds. Will still be a huge effort to get anything but Id rather face them playing as we are than the usual boot and run we usually play against them.

It's pleasing the fans are responding... For so long home crowds have stuck around 4/4500. It's good for the players to see fans responding to the better stuff we are watching

You are probably right but they are bang average. They don't look like a top 6 team either, however they have financial resources and that will always helps . Mind you the £20 million they have spent so far isnt showing much return.

Correct , hopefully it will turn for him, he works hard .. me ? Im not convinced by him. .

Enjoyed that again tonight, just proves with the style we play patience is a virtue. Thought Aberdeen had best chances first half but thought we dominated the second half. Anyone hear what the crowd wad tonight.

Aberdeen at this moment in time are pish. Utterly dreadful. We should be looking to heap more misery on them. Their defending against Dundee Utd was fuckin dreadful and if we had our shooting boots on last Saturday we would have beat them 3 or 4 -1. If we lose on Saturday it will be because we didn't perform not because Aberdeen suddenly become good.

With the OF playing in the other semi final and the gate money pooled it was never going to be cheap.

Just watched it and thought they all came across very well. Was curious what the infrastructure developments the chairman was referring to. Said more details would be released as soon as definite developments. Anyone any idea what they are.

Apologies if someone has mentioned this but what was the story about Just. I presume he was injured , hopefully nowt serious.

Said!!!! have you seen his final ball ?? he really needs to work on that cos everything else is decent.

Before the transfer window I fancied us in both games against Aberdeen because I thought Aberdeen were pish. On paper I thought they'd strengthened significantly in the window. So my natural slant towards pessimism I thought the cup tie would be a step to much for us. Thankfully it didn't turn out that way. I was always more hopeful for the home league game. If we can play as we can , and to be fair that's better than we played on Saturday, we should be able to get 3 points.

You are correct mate European Football leaves me completely cold. Couldn't care if I never saw another European game ever again. Although I accept if we have a great season, which Id always want , that comes as part of it. Id never spend a single penny going abroad to watch a European game again Seen it done it , the novelty's past and our efforts in general have been dismal in our 38 outings. Happy to say I was fortunate to watch our best performance away (Dortmund) but all the rest, other that Odense and Nancy, have been a whole lot of nothing in my view. The money is a bonus I know but I never started supporting Motherwell to watch a balance sheet. I watch for excitement , drama and decent football and European football , for us, has produced very little of that. I don't expect anyone else to agree its just a personal opinion. For others who love it, great lap it up, if it arrives.

Completely agree imagine if St Mirren win 2 major trophies in the last 15 years No way would I want that. A team we wouldn't have seen in our way over the last 30 years. Ours will be a real hard tie to win St Mirren are no mugs

Whilst I think its extremely unlikely, what you can say is that from St Johnstone and Aberdeen in the Cup and 5 league games we have been the better team in every game. I can't remember a time where I could say that about a Motherwell team facing hard opponents.

😂😂 Me and my mate got a two hour dispensation to watch the game. If you could have seen the looks of folk when me and him jumping about the pub like 5 year olds singing "oh Motherwell, oh Motherwell is wonderful.." Perfect start, now for day two and a liver transplant tomorrow... OH MOTHERWELL, OH MOTHERWELL..... IS WONDERFUL.

If I'm hones I just never saw that coming. I couldn't be more delighted, the project remains on track a big crowd guarenteed and we really should have won that 4-1 even though probably one of our poorer game. Take nothing away from Motherwell but Aberdeen are absolute push. To think how they were creaming their pants over their their transfer window activity.

One that will test my falling capacity for Alcohol One that proves I cant hit a golf ball One that proves I've got double vision on a pool table One that proves I have some of the best mates in the world And hopefully one that sees my team going to a semi final 🤣

Right if we were only able to win one , what do you want? tomorrow or next Saturday in the league.

I hope you are right. Got a stag weekend in Glasgow this weekend , me and one of my mates have been given a 2 hour pass to watch the game hopefully I won't have my face up my arse for the rest of the weekend. 🤞🤞🤞😂
