Thought O’Donnell played well when he came on. I see Slattery taking some stick but I thought he was decent when he came on, not so much Osong though. For a while I had been giving our forwards the benefit of the doubt, saying that we didn’t give them decent service. Now though, I think we have been creating more chances but not taking them. While i think top priority is a striker for us we might also work on some shooting practice for the team. 😳

We just have to be patient. The good work that JBA has done so far is astounding. He can’t fix everything at once and I’m surprised by how much he has fixed already. Players are going to have off days, bad spells, good spells and today we had several players with off days yet managed to have slightly more posession than Rangers did and could have been a goal or two up after 20 mins if had a goal scorer. disappointing result but still not a team in the league that we should fear.

I thought it was a penalty om assuming VAR had a look? Why else would he go down in that position.

Yep! Ward had his best game for us.

Nothing between the teams. As mentioned, left back to challenge Longelo for his starting place. and goal scorer needed amd we can still be in the mix come the end of the season. just have to beat the other half of the uglies on Tuesday.

Not getting much at all from Hendry or Said. said has been surprisingly disappointing. Just had been caught several times on the ball but is contributing.

We have not taken 2 or 3 good chances we created. Hopefully JBA can get us set up for the second half. our first 20 mins was excellent.

Yep. Just and Said getting caught on the ball a lot.

JT on bench again today at Afcon. Should be fresh when he comes back.

Merry Christmas to ‘well supporters everywhere.

If we remain unbeaten through the next two games we are in with a realistic chance of finishing 2,3 or 4 and an outside chance of 1 Hearts wouldn’t need to have a total collapse but a few more draws or loose the odd game here and there would bring them back much closer to us. Unless Celtic and Rangers drastically improve over January both of them are capable of dropping points against any team in the league. as someone stated earlier, this is not a normal season.

You’d think they would make it easy for motherwell supporters to buy tickets, especially for such a big game. Surely a better way than having to go to the office. How do they know they are selling to Motherwell supporters?

So to be fair rangers should also not be in a realistic title discussion.

He does know that pretty recently we just had 19 changes over a few games? Or maybe he doesn’t but I’m more than happy for the media to write us off and underestimate us. the league table doesn’t lie.

I think I’d start AP in this one or maybe even push Cook inside and play Said as well

Celtic should also have easily beat Utd. They missed a handful of sitters but regardless I hope they are mentally on a downer.

Want to see him and his team do well but then I also want him back ASAP so hope does well and they narrowly miss qualifying

Jan 1st to Feb 2nd

What little he has had to do, he has done well and has contributed ton the run of 6 clean sheets.

Hopefully we can pile on a wee bit more agony for them.

This is going to be a long week till next Saturday.

Let’s hope JBA pulls off a couple of tactical masterclasses and gets us 6 points. Both will be tough games especially since we don’t have Welsh for the Celtic game. Fingers crossed AP and Hendry find their shooting boots and start scoring, although I don’t care who scores as long as we do.

Reasonable statements and time will tell if correct or not. Rangers Saturday followed by Celtic Tuesday is always going to be tough so maybe we’ll we see how we stack up after those two games. I’m sure both of us are hoping you’re wrong.

Wasn’t specifically a response to your post as there were other comments of us being poor.

He has missed two sitters now
