Dundee are absolutely murder and have lost 8 games in a row. I’d like to think after tomorrow that’ll be 9.....

2 of the best goals I’ve seen Motherwell score since, well, Turnbull’s v Hibs! Incredible run. 5 consecutive league wins in this league, regardless of who the opposition were, is no mean feat. As someone else said, just a pity there’s no cup run to get excited about.

Fair play to Robinson for the recent results and performances. I had previously called for him to go on these boards which now looks madness. Jusr aswell I’m not in charge.

Quite surprised at this if it comes to pass. Hartley was great when he first joined but hasn’t hit those heights since he returned from injury.

I’m fine with the same starting 11 that’s won the last 2 games starting again but obviously Main as a number 9 just isn’t going to do next season. If Main, Sammon and Newell were to move on this window I’d be absolutely fine with that, but would probably need a target man number 9, even on loan, before Sammon and Main could move. I wasn’t expecting to see McCormack before the Livingstone game but am kinda expecting/hoping to start seeing him contribute meaningfully from the Hearts game on the 17th onwards. Hopefully! Thank goodness it doesn’t appear that we’re going to have to rely on him to save us!

Massive 3 points and a win that has opened up a massive gap over 11th and 12th. Don’t care if we rode our luck but it is a bit of a concern to hear the defence looked ropey.

Need to take something from this. I know Dundee got a great result the other night there but I still think they are up to much. Same team as Wednesday please. Be disappointed if it’s not. A win and we’re as good as safe.....so a Dundee win then just so we don’t know whether we’re coming or going!

Probably the most I’ve enjoyed a game all season and the absolutely perfect response to Saturday. I liked the look of the starting line up and hopefully that’s the team we start with at Dens. Main was the only player who wasn’t impressive. He’s not going to score anytime soon sadly but his role involved wrestling with the Hibs players which he’s quite good at and his hold up play was decent in fairness. 3 goals in 30 games is pathetic though. Hastie was sensational! Him over Frear all day long. As was Turnbull whose touch and passing are on w different level. The new boy is fast and exciting. Gorrin and Campbell did well and Grimshaw’s runs and tenacity were a joy to watch. Defence solid. McCormack came on and had a few good touches but looks a mile off the pace. Despite what Lennon said, we were comfortable and they created nothing bar the odd cross. Gauld flattered to deceive. All for nothing if we lose at Dens though but I’m going to sit back and enjoy what I witnessed last night for a bit!

Need a reaction here and a result. Interesting to see what line up is pulled from the “starting 11 tombola”! Motherwell 0 Hibs something

For those saying “be careful what you wish for”....Well I wish for out of the 6 home games v Hearts, Killie, Accies, St Johnstone, St Mirren and Ross County to have won at least 1 of those games and scored more than 1 fucking goal! We didn’t even look like winning any of those games and the solitary goal we scored was a 93rd minute consolation one! Is that really too much to wish for? How bad does it need to get both in terms of signings, results, performances and tactics before there is a change?

I don’t listen to his interviews anymore but if that’s the stuff he’s now coming out with then he’s lost the plot.

Going out the cup at home to lower league opposition is unforgivable. Between that, the shocking summer recruitment, the tactics, the performances and results it’s been horrific from the start this season. Many of us hoped that signing off before the break on a win coupled with a genuine marquee signing would give us fresh impetus for the second half of the season but with that shot down in flames Robinsons position is now untenable and he has to go.

That’s our 6th defeat of the season at home. 6 games v Hearts, Accies, St Mirren, St Johnstone, Killie and now Ross County. 6 defeats and a single fucking goal in those games to cheer. What exactly was worked on in Tenerife?!?! It’s time for a change I’m afraid.

Hell mend them then as if the board won’t act and results and performances continue where they’ve left off, as it looks like they will, then the crowds will dwindle even further.

Luton still looking for a manager?..... Enough is enough.

And not for the first time! An absolute disgrace of a performance and result!

Winter break has done us the power of good then. It’s a brave new dawn everybody.

This was never going to be a walkover but we should be looking to exert ourselves a bit more over a Championship team at home surely?

A genuinely exciting signing. Well done to everyone getting this over the line. Just hope he does well!!

Good luck to Big Bowman. Never in the history of Scottish football has an accidental stray elbow infuriated and rattled so many!

Hibs? Yes. The others? Surely not?!?! For the record, I could see him being sought after by any of the teams currently above is in the league. And I include Celtic in that! Hope we’re not gazumped! (And if we are I hope he turns out to be pish!!!)

We played some of the best football I’ve ever seen us play in 2007/2008. The cup game at Tynecastle after O’Donnell’s death was something else and the celebrations after Porters equaliser were as powerful as they come. We of course won the replay and then a first division Dundee knocked us out a Fir Park in the next round!!!! Naturally. Another missed opportunity to do something on the cups when we actually have a good team!!! There’s a great highlights reel on YouTube of all McCormack’s goals at Leeds and some of them are absolutely sensational. This is potentially a very exciting signing although I’ve no idea what his form/fitness is like at the moment.

We won! We won! We won! It’s a Christmas miracle!!! Get in!!!

Indeed. They haven’t been available in every game all season, very few players are, but most have been involved for extended periods, Cadden and Carson in particular, and the results were largely atrocious even when they were.

The injury list has to be considered today for sure as it’s absolutely horrendous but the vast majority of the players out today have been available all season and it’s the results leading up to today that have us in this mess, not what happens today.
