  1. What were all the other guys doing before the Aberdeen game ‘cause they didn’t look any better then Campbell?
  2. Can’t say I’ve noticed him being jaded after international duty this season.
  3. Yes he makes mistakes but all our players do. Right now I think he is our best choice for right back and retains his starting place on merit. Not sure how many people agree on that though and I’m never sure how representative the views on on here are of the Motherwell support as a whole.
  4. Gallagher for me. Although his touch led to the first goal I’m not sure he really knew much about the bill being there. One of our best signings in a long time. Good in the air, composed on the ball positionally aware. He was popping up all over the place today. Not overawed at all by the playing Celtic at their place. In contrast I though Hylton was struck by stage fright again. I’m sure there is a player in there but he needs to relax and just go for it ........ oh and do the work to track back.
  5. Like one of the other posters I also disagree with your perception of the team selection. I also think the fact that we continually pressed Celtic high up the park conflicts with your perception. Not to say I am right and you are wrong but your point is certainly up for discussion. Add to that the fact that our subs were all forward positions ending up with Seedorf, Scott and Hylton on the park indicates to me that we were trying to get something out of the game. Yes there may be many things we can and should improve on but I am ok with the overall performance. For me we have only let ourselves down on 3 occasions this year. Hearts in league cup, Ross county and Aberdeen at home.
  6. So if you are expecting to win do you (or would you) normally bet a decent amount on us beating Celtic or rangers away? Say fifty quid. If the answer is no then I’d hazard a guess that you also really don’t expect us to win.
  7. The problem is we are not learning from our defeats. Or perhaps a better phrase is “our mistakes” since you don’t have to actually get beat to learn something. We see similar mistakes repeating although to be fair to Tait I think that 9 out of 10 times he would likely have cleared that. I’d say mistakes are more along the lines of “turning off“, not executing simple passes, trying to play out instead clearing the ball, or howfing it out instead of releasing player into space.
  8. Thought that was a decent performance. Still pressing at the end of the game. Didn’t collapse after the og. Once again though we let ourselves down with a couple of lapses which make it hard for us to take any points. Overall though I thought we played well but lacking a real threat going forward. Very Far from the worst performance at park head.
  9. Hylton looks like he has stage fright again
  10. To be fair we have responded very well after the og
  11. Foot ... gun. Proceed with normal procedure
  12. Can’t argue with any of that. We still give the ball away too easily too often which makes it harder for ourselves. Don’t like it when they get Forrest 1 on 1 with Tait
  13. With the international break right after this game we can afford to leave it all on the park. So let’s get organized and keep up the energy level the whole game and see if we can take something from this game.
