  1. looking at Aberdeen's goal should it not have been ruled offside. Aluko was onside but their other attacker came from behind the motherwell defence and ran towards the ball blocking our defender. Not that it matter tho.
  2. interesting to read the Dons fans aint impressed with Blackman. Seems he aint interested and a bad signing. What a shame.
  3. i wonder if the players went into the Aberdeen dressing room after the game to wish Brown & Knox 'well
  4. how bad must aberdeen's defence be for Jeffers to score against them
  5. Brown is hurting big!! going by his interview
  6. brown making excuses! we had our full team out apparently, and they did not!
  7. massive massive result. well done to all at MFC. GIRUY Brown & Co.
  8. you would think with the pace we have we could exploit them, as they must be taking some amount of chances.
  9. keep the ball time me thinks. and with that goal it total screws the bbc live spl table
  10. is craigan on a mission of some kind of record for continous bookings. seems he gets booked every game he plays these days. never easy playing against 10 especially away from home. Every chance Aberdeen will up their efforts.
  11. Calderwood looked lost to me, and reminded me alot like Malpas. Had Houghton got the WBA, Calderwood would have been off i reckon. Hibs have had a couple of good results of late, but their is still a huge rebuilding job required there. The football under Malpas was terrible, results worse, and deserved to go.
  12. McCall joined Motherwell on 30th December. The transfer window opened a couple of days later. I would assume that McCall probably did not really know much about our players and was prepared to give some a chance to prove themselves. We lost some players again probably due to financial reasons, and had the task of trying to replace them at a time where there were very few options available. The January transfer window is for rich clubs, there aint many bargains for clubs that are skint. How you can say he does not have a long term plan, without actually knowing or talking to him and the club is beyond me. The beginning of next season, after the summer transfer window is a more reasonable and realistic time to judge. Seems many on here were waiting for todays result just to put the boot in, without any realism. I aint happy about losing 6 nil, but it's only a game of football. The club's be in a far worse position than it is in today. That also does not excuse todays performance but i am prepared to give McCall time, the teenagers in our team time to mature. Results aint great granted, but at least we are trying to play the game in the right way. With time you never know. Instant success aint compatible with Motherwell. It took wee Tommy years and years to get it right, and when he did, it was worth waiting. Criticise, but keep it realistic please.
  13. just goes to show how much we miss Hammell.
  14. taken out the team and replace by who exactly? I agree certain players need to be rested so to speak, but who is there to bring in? Outwith the normal starting 11, with an average age of below 23?, we have say about 5 youths that are our backup. Big ask for them to come into a team thats struggling.
  15. what you really think Hamilton will make up 14 points on us? they find goals harder to come by than us, and that says something.
  16. how long you been a 'well fan? You know whilst it is never acceptable getting beat by 6 goals, it aint the first and wont be the last time, so should we all not be used to it, and just shrug the shoulders, and know better results will also come along at some point, and give us greater enjoyment.
  17. and perform reasonably well in europe. When a team can afford to spend £4m on a striker, they aint that skint, and should be miles ahead of all but Celtic.
  18. if the players can get motivated for this, then god help us. Lets have a right go at them, as their defence is mince, and give the fans their smile back please. I would also hope that Hateley is nowhere near the midfield.
  19. is Boyle making the decisions about finance? Seems since the appointment of Weir? etc spending has been cut. Not saying it's a bad thing, just need to look at Dundee, but was wondering how much involvement does Boyle have these days.
  20. The fans mood is already on a major down. Todays result just adds fuel to that. McCall perhaps got his tactics wrong today, h**s played a belter, and our players lost the ability to mark, tackle and pass a ball. Seems to be the normal of late. Perhaps the lack of reinvestment (understandable given scottish finances) in the squad has at last bit us on the ass. As i've said only a result against Aberdeen now can perhaps save our season.
  21. aye i know. perhaps someone could rename it to RANT AWAY chaps
