He looked like Messi last week compared to today.

How much time do we give him? We look worse every week and there are 12 games to go.

Baraclough looks finished in that interview. Hopefully its sunk in that he isn't up to it and he'll walk Monday morning.

You could tell today the second the team was announced we were going to lose. We played 3 attackers in midfield who don't do much defensively and put Grant - the only player who looks capable moving forward with the ball - in a holding role with Lasley leaving us swamped time and time again. It dragged us deeper and when we did finally get the ball back we launched it to Sutton who had no one within 30 yards of him. Clueless. Bring back Malpas.

We can't even talk about Johnson going off having anything to do with this, he was garbage while on the park.

Not only does he pick them, he signed Straker. That alone should be a sackable offence.

Get bomber in.

If I go to the bookies will they give me odds on us not to win another game this season? I'm deadly serious. I said this weeks ago and I wish i'd took a punt on it then.

I repeat - Anthony Straker is the worst Motherwell player I have seen in my lifetime (i'm 25). Go back and watch Baracloughs interview when we signed him, talking about how "comfortable" he is at both left back and left midfield with a big grin on his face as if we've just unearthed a hidden gem. "Ian" can bite my shite, unbelievably out of his depth.

Furthermore, if Anthony Straker starts next week i'm leaving before the game kicks off. It's not his fault he's so shite but if Baraclough picks him after that performance we may as well just turn off the lights now.

Imposter. Get him to fuck.

It's a question a few people have asked, we might try and speak to the club to see if theres any way we can sort something out. Not today but we'll get something arranged, hopefully for next week. See you in the section

If you're looking for a stand-in..

Thanks everyone who has donated so far, rest assured its going to be put to good use before the end of the season. For anyone still in two minds about coming to join the section - why not give it a try tomorrow? The players have made no secret of how much of a difference a noisy home support can make. #PYDM

He was worse at left back up at county than he was at left mid the week before. Looked completely lost and i'd much rather play Watt.

On Saturday 21st February we play Dundee FC at Fir Park in what is set to be a very important fixture. There's 13 games left in this season's Scottish Premiership and every single one of them is equally crucial. In our opinion the season starts now! Over the past few years we have witnessed a fantastic backing from fellow Dossers at Fir Park and on our travels, both domestically and in European competition. We've waved flags, sang songs and shared the good times together but now we face a harder challenge. We now find ourselves at the opposite end of the Premiership table and the team need our backing more than ever. Baraclough has brought in new faces, we are seeing our younger players given the opportunity to step up to the plate, the ownership issues are resolved and in general things are looking brighter off the field. It's now time for that positivity to be replicated in the stands. We would like to encourage all Motherwell fans to give The Steelmen their backing both visually and vocally. We want everyone at Fir Park to encourage the players, bring flags and join in with the songs and chants. Even if it's not your usual cup of tea we urge you to come along to the end section of the East Stand and help create a real fighting spirit. We understand fans have their usual seat and often people are reluctant to move but with every game from now until the end of the season being the equivalent to a Cup Final in terms of importance we have decided to try and get as many of the usual faces in to the first few rows to allow space for others to fill in at the back. It should be noted that over the next few months we would like to bring as much positivity and colour to Fir Park as possible and all donations to help fund materials for fan displays would be greatly appreciated. Donations can be at made at SIWY, via PayPal to sinceiwasyoung@hotmail.co.uk or in person on a match day around the drum. We're all in this together.... SIWY! #PYDM

He's looked absolutely awful so far. Caught underneath high balls letting them bounce, slicing the ball over the stand, missing basic 5 yard passes and taking an age with the ball every time he gets it when he should be looking for a quick release. I hope Hammell is back next week.

Straker is the worst player i've ever seen.

If I take part will I get my face on one of those banners?

Is the central branch running? Could someone send me the contact details if it is, the closer the game gets the more I fancy it.

Now that the transfer window is out of the way and we seem to be attempting to get back to the ethos of being a selling club, will we be making moves to get some of our younger players on long term contracts?

Conor Grant - "Defensive midfielder with an eye for goal, very highly rated at Everton and expected to make it".

Laing expected to be confirmed "within the hour" according to certain journalists on Twitter.
