Was thinking same thing. There will still be bumps in the road, little set backs here and there, off days, silly goals given up but all those things were happening before and at alarming frequency amd with zero entertainment. At least now we are being treated to more football entertainment than I can remember for a long time. Regarding entertainment, Said is one of the most entertaining players we’ve had in who know how long. Quite the character although I think he got a finger wagging from the boss last night 😂 Desperate for him to score for us in a victory so Saturday would be a good day for that ! COYW!!!

A bold move on the part of JBA. glad it payed off for him and us. In hindsight it really doesn’t look like much of a gamble. It would appear we have a squad who can maintain the team performance level regardless of who’s on the park. Happy days.

I hope we don’t get too full of ourselves. I think maybe JBA had a wee word with Said at end of game.

Have to admit I was worried about this game amd then seeing the starting line up made me even more worried. Well done MFC and JBA very comfortable 3 points. ok, so now I can worry about Saturday 😀

That’s the best I’ve seen us ever retain possession against 10 men

Yep 70%

I hope we don’t get over confident and Fk this up!!!

So who’s dropped out of Saturday?

Our best form of defence is keeping the ball and giving them as little possession as possible

I think you can get the PPv link at Motherwell tv site

I think game is also on PPV ?

Haven seen much of how Hibs play this season but assuming they will try to attack which probably suits us better than if they were to sit in and hit us on the break. If they adopt that approach then hopefully we get an early Goal or two so they have to play a bit more open.

Yes, was a quick non confrontational exchange, looked along the lines of….. ”can I take the PK to get a hat trick”? “No! I take all the pk’s” “OK! Good luck”! no wrestling for the ball or petulant body language

Exactly, it doesn’t matter who scores as long as WE do. im ok with either starting but I do think we ask our centre forward to do a lot of work so I would anticipate that one starts amd one finishes. when we make that switch could depend on a few things, getting tired, the score, how well they are playing, knocks etc.

Think I’d start Hendry again to soften them up a bit and then Stama coming on for the last 20/30 mins unless Hendry is having an outstanding game. start Just and replace him, when he starts to tire, with Said. let’s see what JT turns up amd replace him with RCC if needed. Encourage our full backs to get crosses in early for Hendry.

Agree McGinn had a solid game again. However, he got caught stepping up too late again for offside call at the Killie goal. That’s the second time this season, same issue. He has to step up early before the ball is played. However, it was also a terrific ball that McGinn played Stama in for the penalty

Big game Tuesday! ‘Mon the ‘Well.

Hopefully he stays there for a while 😂

I’m desperate for him to get a goal. He was robbed of the one he did “score”’

Another 3 points in the bank!

Need another goal to kill the game.

C’mon ‘Well get a grip of this game.

Can’t believe the ref never called it real time. Stick on penalty

Yep! That’s where it came from.

We’ve lost it a bit here.
