I’m not sure about “buy in”. I’d say buy in would mean having patience and belief in the new approach being the way forward if we want to have a better football team on the park along with the understanding that it may take time to yield results. Unfortunately, fans are not well renowned for patience and understanding. We may not be able to fix our issues till next season after the summer transfer window. I’ll be ok with finishing 10th and continuing to play the excellent stuff we have seen so far. Having said that I’m confident of us not being in a relegation dog fight come the end of the season. As JBA says, “it’s where you finish at the end of the season that defines your season”. It’s not where you are after first round of fixtures.

Our football is a joy to watch and as good as any team in the league. If we can fix our issues or at least cut down the frequency of shooting ourselves in the foot we could do very well.

I think I would also pair Gordon with Welsh. as an aside, Not sure what was going on against Falkirk but on Several occasions Welsh seemed to be well behind our other defenders.

Is Slattery back for this? do we play him on the artificial turf? Does he start or Come on from the bench? if he starts who drops out. does cook start, to give us more attacking/scoring option? few more questions to be thinking about as well!! who’d be a manager ? So much to think about!

Agree.

I get the frustration and disappointment but I hope everyone can have some patience and maintain positive support for the manager and the team. I’m pretty sure the vast majority were confident of getting a win yesterday which makes it even harder to take. We are playing a style which has yielded some of the best football seen at Fir park in years and we are only 8 games into the season. Yes, there are issues but let’s not start getting on the backs of the manager and the team so soon. I’d much rather support continuing our current style as we try to fix the issues. Some fair comments regarding our issues but that should not be transferring into booing or getting on the players backs at the game. I’m hoping Slattery will help make a difference when he comes back in and i think i agree with earlier comment about going with Walsh/Gordon pairing. I also hope that we are looking for a Longello back up and another striking option we can get in January or are we planning on Suele(?) being that?

I think we are going to win this.

Need to regroup here.

Definitely need more goals.

Previous games we have slowed down a bit after 60 70 mins. I think today we can bring players off the bench and maintain our intensity.

We’ve hit many more good balls into the box today but not taking advantage of that

Great defensive covering by Just

Like to see us score another soon. We are very much in control but need to get goals

Yaassssss. Now fk off VAR

Utter bullshit

Falkirk bring a decent support

4 or 5 on the bench you would be quite happy to see in a starting line up. Nice to see a strong bench.

I’m sure JBA will explain after the game. As someone mentioned could be a minor knock, maybe not feeling well the past day or two or maybe this morning? Having listened to JBA interviews and his handling of Ward, I find it hard to believe that he would be dropped

Kipre playing for Ipswich last night. Middlesbourgh beat them 2–1. One of their goals being OG by Kipre

Really enjoyed watching that and listening to the players talking.

Per JBA interview sounds like we should have a stronger squad for this game with Sparrow, Just and Hendry in full training all this week. I think Slattery probably still missing but hopefully back for game after this. Falkirk are no mugs but I’d love to see us hammer them but more than happy to win by a single goal, hopefully maintaining our entertaining football.

Is JT making it back in time?

So where is he amd when do we expect him back?

I think Falkirk will bring a decent crowd and it will be a tough game but no reason we can’t get 3 points if we play well. Having a few players back from injury will be a big boost for us and should help us maintain pressure on Falkirk for the whole game. Not writing Falkirk off but I hope we can get some goals in the first half amd see the game out in second half in a comfortable manner, well, as comfortable as it can be for a Motherwell team 😳

Ok that’s it! I’m not going now! 😂😂😂
