Hibs definitely look like they have players who can do us damage on Sunday. Boyle, Newell, Le Fondre, Vente and Levitt would all walk into our team and improve it. We’ll do well to get a draw here I reckon.

Last home win against them Aug ‘19 3-0 win? Apart from that game we seem* to lose to Hibs early on the season on a regular basis. There was the 2-3 loss at FP a couple of seasons back, a 0-3 defeat at Easter Road in 2018, another 3-2 home loss in 2010 and a 2-1 loss in 2004 when Phil O’Donnell scored for us. *We obviously don’t lose to Hibs early on in the season on that regular a basis but it just seems like that.

Craigan is Motherwell daft. It’s brilliant listening to him commentating on our games.

1-2 loss.

Behind the goals.

Definitely. That was two well matched sides today. Neither had a lot of quality but both worked hard and a draw was the right result. Obviously having been 1-0 up and conceding a poor equaliser sticks a bit more but overall it was a decent result to kick the season off with.

Bit harsh in your assessment there but you are definitely right about O’Donnell, Soare and Wilkinson. None of them look like they will be able to make a positive impact in the team this season, on the early evidence at least. Bair looked surprisingly decent in the first half and took the goal well but was anonymous in the second half, thought to be fair to him he got no support from the middle.

FT 1-1. Not a bad result to start the season with, I’ll take that.

On he comes. Welcome back!

Almost strange seeing McGinley again after the length of time he was out.

Poor stuff. Decent ball in but completely ran off his man.

That’s the best way for him to shut up his naysayers (me included). He scores goals for us then it won’t matter a jot how underwhelming a signing he was or how he was viewed by St.Johnstone fans. 45 minutes into the season and it’s Theo Bair 1-0 His doubters.

The fucking BAIR!!! Lovely move and finish!

The balls starting to hold up in the water. This is going to become a complete lottery if the rain keeps up. Some advert for summer football!

Dundee have a better front line than we do but we are doing better in the middle of the park so far.

To be fair I thought his name was Blair when he was at St.Johnstone last season and it was only when he signed for us that I realised it was actually Bair. 😂

Two evenly matched sides so far. The type of game where one goal will decide it.

He was obviously a very limited player but naturally he wrote himself into our history books with a debut 2nd half hattrick. I’m sure he was one one of the players released when admin hit a couple of months later?

Here he comes again, the pub bore. Away and play the puggy and give us all peace.

SO’D and Kelly back in. Wilkinson and Bair lead the line, Efford on the bench. Obika still out.

I’m not saying Moult should be booed or abused when playing against us, be he shouldn’t be applauded especially if he scored against us. In my opinion, of course.

1-1 today I think.

He might not celebrate it but some of our fans will probably applaud him if he did score against us.

Turnbull is a good lad, even if he does play for a horrible club. Rodgers is an oily, creepy shark-faced prick.

I totally agree and I’m glad we didn’t try to re-trace old steps again by giving him another chance after the way it panned out last season. Weesht.
