I didn’t hear him say that. Maybe I missed it or just took something different from what he said than you did.

Should be confident of winning this but we have to put in the effort. Livi maybe bottom but still not a pushover. Hopefully Watt is back for at least part of the game. As someone suggested playing RCC from the start instead of Hendry/AP might be worth a try. Slats needs to up his performance level a bit and not lapse into his old. Falling over habit and getting caught on the ball. if we can get an early goal then perhaps we can a few more.

Hearts have a tough run of games Celtic (a) Falkirk (a) Rangers (h) Hibs(a)

Comment from live updates, “not a lot of contact there but there was some”

The ball seemed to be very bouncy on that surface. I missed Most of the game but what I did see was mostly scrappy. Don’t think I missed much with only one shot on target from each side. hopefully normal service resumed on Saturday at home to Livi.

I think teams will struggle against us even though they will know how we play because I think we have already learned that if they press us high then we will use longer ball more. Once they combat that then we will revert to playing from the back. Most teams end up only pressing high for a short time amd so, yes, there may be difficult periods in a game but overall I think teams are not set up to be successful against our style of play.

So need 3 wins and a draw from the remaining 4 to get 17 points. Not impossible but certainly a big ask for Motherwell, going 10 games without defeat

Indeed, 3 ties between premier league teams. All 3 which could go either way. Tricky one for Hibs at Dunfermline. Aberdeen not a gimmie against Raith. Similar for Dundee Utd versus Ayr. so while we can’t be complacent we should be confident and you’re right, coukd have been worse

I hope Longello picks it up a bit as he was a great asset with his attacking play. I do wonder, as someone mentioned, if JBA has reined him in a bit to keep us a bit more secure at the back? He certainly is not as decisive amd direct on the ball as he was earlier in the season. If he keeps playing then we know JBA is happy with his performances.

In a way it’s a compliment to the other coaches. He is assuming they are all experienced enough to see what we done so why treat it like a secret that nobody noticed.

How’s the Falkirk game going? I’d be ok with it ending in a draw amd Falkirk picking up a few injuries

There’s wee white lines that form rectangles amd you just drive your car into the space between the lines. SORRY! Couldn’t stop myself ! I blame grizzly.

Although the pundits may be slow to praise our style of play, I’d say almost every game we have played has seen comments from opposition fans acknowledging the type of football we play. So while the there maybe voices saying this is not Scottish fitba, it’s obviously the kind of football that a lot of fans are dying to see.

I’m more than happy not to get media attention or praise. The longer we stay under the radar or are unappreciated for the way we are playing, the better. We know what we are watching every week now amd the league table will be the test of how good we are.

Payback time!! Let’s get all 3’points and a few goals.

Somebody mentioned he was reporting someone in the main stand to security but don’t know why.

So did Said get a card? Didnt look like much at all.

Keeper has had zero saves against Hearts and Hibs, although our players have cleared two off the line

Not sure I would say poor but I think for Slats amd Just, their touch let them down a bit. Hoping they’re back to top of their game for midweek.

Honorable mention for Hendry for the goal line clearance.

Well that’s 7 out of 9 for the first 3 games. revenge game on Wednesday.

Didnt play at our best although not bad, so we know there is even more to come. Second game in a row with goalkeeper having zero saves and clean sheet. Pretty decent when it’s against top team and top scorers in the league.

Went for Walsh. Thought he strolled through the game.

Devlin was having some good natured banter with Stama and Said wandered over and gave Devlin a push. Not sure why but Said wasn’t happy with Devlin. Motherwell players got him out of the way before he done anything stupid. I didn’t see anything worthy of red card.

We had 5 on target
