Absolutely delighted that we’ve managed to get a top six finish . That was a brutal watch today but the important thing for me was we kept going . As a Well fan I’m delighted as it keeps the season from dying and still got something to play for . Also I’m sure the board will be happy with the money so a win win However this has been a difficult watch this season and for me not enough football being played ironically onthe best surface we’ve ever had at FP . For me looking ahead to next season we need to play more football on the deck and need better crosses /delivery from the wings . Also need to address the defence as it looks leaky .Anyway that’s not for tonight . Im of to celebrate with a wee drink and toast to my team . The Well . We did it ,not sure how ,but right now I don’t give a feck .

Very sad news about Kirky Lawson . Was a big favourite with the fans back in the day . Remember him from playing in the early days of the Texaco cup RIP Kirky

It feels very similar to the Maurice Malpas season . Is there anyone out there who can say this season has been an enjoyable watch. Any results we’ve had have been grounded out which is fine when your going through a rough patch but it has been like this for the whole season.I can see people staying away from the remaining games but the real danger is that the fans are not getting entertained and this will have an impact on ST sales . There’s a few people I’ve spoke to who won’t be renewing to watch the same again next season . Will I renew ? Not so sure now tbh as not enjoying it at all . As I said earlier same kind of feeling we had when Malpas was in charge . Seriously how the board are watching this closely and act before it’s too late . Tbh I have trust in the board and would be surprised if there not watching the events carefully . If we get beat at home in the next game I’ve got a feeling the fans patience will finally runout . That’s never a nice scenario but can see it happening with the call for Alexander to go

He seems a decent honest bloke but as a manager of our club then not for me . The football is so so bad . The fear for me is if he stays then next season we would probably be one of the favourites to go down . Also the negativity and lack of football will have an impact on ST for next season . Surely we’ve got to seriously look at this situation. Give Las the job and allow him to bring in his own men till end of the season . As fans were surely entitled to watch a better standard of football than this irrespective of whether we win loose or draw.It’s a truly awful watch

After watching today more than ever I’m convinced we need a new defence . Mugabi seems to get away with being a fans favourite . As a player particularly when exposed in the full back position he is a liability. Never a right back and never will be . McGinley also needs replaced . Average at best on a good day but always a mistake in him . Lastly Obama . Where do you start with him . Good in the air but so slow on the deck . Next season two new wing backs and a decent centre half please . Would be happy to give the young lad Max Johnston a chance as well if he’s still at the club . Would also have been happy to keep Lamie but that’s gone . Strange to here some giving it to O’Donnell when things go wrong yet Mugabi gets cult status . Strange old game

A very hard watch indeed . The quality of football was shocking . What the manager and assistant are talking about on the touch line is baffling . High punts up to the strikers and try and win the second ball off it . What is there to actually talk about. This is not entertaining whatsoever . And the fans now it. I’ve no evidence to base this on but what decent player would want to play in a game like that . This type of football is sucking the life out the support nearly as much as Alexander’s pre and post match interviews. Looking to next season I think we could be in real trouble if this continues . If he serves this garbage up next year I don’t think many people will be going . We cannot be fooled that we can still qualify for Europe cup semis etc etc . That’s painting over the cracks stuff . Was really looking forward to Alexander’s appointment at the time and fully supported it,but as they say he’s sucking the oxygen out the room

McGinley is a liability at left back . Seems he can’t concentrate for 90 minutes . Carroll needs to start on Saturday but long term decent LB required .

Left back required. McGinley is tuned to the moon. Carrol must start in place of him surely on Saturday . Need a solid no nonsense left back that can concentrate for the whole game

Difficult situation for the club this . But in Burrows ,McMahon etc, the board I’m sure they’ll do what’s best for the clubs interests and by default the fans also . Don’t think we need a poisonous,divided support on this matter but at the same time I don’t think that would really bother Watt . Should we let him go to our nearest rivals now……. Not for me . Could cost us money in league placings and possibly even European spot . So for me he stays with us trains with us and moves in the summer . But down the pecking order re appearances if even in the match squad . It looks to me that it was felt among the support he was moving anyway but this situation could have been avoided . However one thing Tony if your reading this . What was all the badge hugging ,jumping up on the wall after scoring etc all about . Looks a bit engineered to me . Poor stuff . You don’t try and take the piss out your on support

Bit random but what’s the score re Cedric Kipre . Are we owed a fee if he moves on . He moved out on loan then but my thinking is he moved back to WBA and reclaimed his place.It’s been a while and I’m sure somebody has addressed it in previous chats . Just can’t remember

I’m also happy to go with the managers decision and that why I’m happy he’s benched him . Tony has the right to choose ……… but so does the manager

Well done Alexander . Showing good management . Bench him for the season . I we might miss his ability but a least can’t damage us. He’s done well this season and worked his socks off but don’t take the piss out the fans Tony . Good luck with your move and the money that goes with it but no tears shed from me . played well for 3 months . That doesn’t qualify him as being a club legend . Not a chance

Donnelly all day long for me . Been out for a long while and strolled it . Best in the team at sniffing out danger and loves a tackle . Looking forward to see him and Slattery play together Also looks leaner . Did anyone notice?

Ricky Lamie for me . Turning into the player we hoped we had signed . Superb from start to finish . His timing in the air was first class all day .

Another classic Alexander pre match interview. Blah blah blah.

Lesleys on maternity leave Yeah was wondering as hadn’t seen him in the dugout Probably keeping his head down if he’s any sense from this clusterfuck .

Anyone think Alexander will change to a 3-5-2 for Dons game or his favoured 4-3-3. Strikes me his stubborn side will win and it’ll be the later. Im of the opinion we’ve got the players for 3-5_2 and it would work . At present our two full backs with all there inadequacies are being hung out to dry with the current formation The feeling I got from the stands at last weeks debacle was that the fans are becoming very restless with 1. The formation 2 The style of the football and lack of creativity. Think we’re at a tipping point with Alexander and his tactics now. Could go either way in the next few weeks . On a separate note is Lesley still involved with the first team .

On a separate note it’s high time the post interviewer whoever he is starts to ask some difficult questions ie the questions the fans would ask him . He gets an easy time every week . Stop blowing smoke up his Arsenal with easy questions and making it ridiculously easy for him . Time he was taken to task by asking him much tougher questions . Total waste of time as it is presently .

Winning a game of football getting 3 points but not playing well is fine with me if it’s a one off in fact can be quite satisfying . However after watching Dundee , Aberdeen Ross Co and St Mirren play us off our own park every home game is utterly ridiculous . All you here coming out the ground is …… how did we manage to actually win that . The football is excruciating to watch and the formation/line up is brutal . l get the concept of better to be a lucky team than a good team and let’s face it we’ve been lucky to win the aforementioned We must be the worst team to watch in the league cos we never have the ball and when we do we loose it quickly . If Alexander keeps this system of play up he better invest in a good pair of ear defenders . Fans started to turn against him at Dundee Utd game and increased after his ridiculous post match analysis . That was the start and it’s going to get much worse if he tries to bullshit the fans . Big mistake to do that . GA word of advice …… we’re on to your waffle

Before Alexander arrived it was always stop the cross coming in and deal with it when it comes into the box . That’s what you do A don’t think Alex Neil could believe what he was watching . And yes would take him as a manager in a heartbeat . No bullshit like current manager .

Not for me it’s not . I’m nearly done and we’re not half way through the season yet

Couldn’t agree more . A truly dreadful watch . Kelly punts the ball up the park, our strikers challenge and we win a shy . Then a long throw shy into the box . End of attack . Repeat ……….same again Repeat……. same again repeat …….. same again . Full time . Well that was entertaining ……..NOT !!!!! Be glad to see the back of this manager . Terrible style of play

The guy doing the summing up on sky sports would give you a team on the park you would love to watch and could connect with. Think Alex Neil or a similar character is what’s needed . Tactically savvy he spoke more sense in five minutes than Alexander could ever do . I’ve got to the point I can’t even listen to Alexanders waffle any more. Even Faddy looks like he’s done with the tactics. Call it what you want Hoofball or Alexanderball but it certainly isn’t football that’s for sure Do us all a favour Alexander and take your abysmal football training manual with you . It’s is a brutal watch . You must be the only person who thinks this is entertaining . Can see a lot of fans turning there back on this crap till he’s gone . The fans ain’t daft and all Alexanders bullshit won’t wash .

I blame Alexander 100%. It is total anti football . 3 strikers picking up scraps and high balls launched from Kelly . Midfield overrun every game this season because to many strikers on doing nothing . Allowing teams to cross balls into our box . What training manual did that come from . Finally his interviews summing up of games is dillusional . Right now we’re are a terrible watch . Burrows get him out now he’s a total clown of a manager and will get us relegated . Get your big boys pants on get him to …. and bring in a decent manager. Alan I’d like to ask you this . Do you seriously think this is acceptable for a Motherwell team to play like this . Entertainment value is Zero .

Just listened to Alex Neil there .Summed the game up perfectly and his analysis of the defending was spot on . Alexander have a wee listen to what he’s saying . Your football is boring and terrible to watch . Do us all a favour and go …… now
