Positivity only gets you so far. There are arses that need kicked and kicked hard.
-
Players should be paying the costs of all the supporters that went up there. Fucking disgraceful, week after week.
-
If we installed an artificial pitch we'd never win another game again. We'd be non league in 5 seasons!
-
Are you serious? Maybe you can ask the court that when you get arrested. By the way Shay Logan is from Wythenshawe.
-
Ainsworth is a pain in the arse who will never reach any height in the game deserving of his potential because of a serious work ethic problem but at the end of the day we have three players in the squad that you have a decent chance of getting a goal out of and Ainsworth is one of them. In fact in goals to game ratio I think he's statistically top this season. I just think that, like so much this season, we just have to put up with him until the summer when we can make major changes.
-
The Partick game was incredible. Pressed them high up the field dominated the match. Then second half we just sat back and Partick dominated. Hard to say if one, both or neither was the managers plan. If you ask me this team is incapable of actually implementing any kind of tactical instruction. They go out and you cross your fingers.
-
Everywhere is a concern but I think the accepted wisdom is that you "build from the back". If we stop conceding goals, especially avoidable goals from individual mistakes like we have been, we will probably pick up enough points to stay clear of the two bottom spots.
-
Yes. My favourite Motherwell defeat!
-
Put it this way, our two heaviest defeats of the season were matches O'Brien missed. He's the best defender at the club by a country mile.
-
Our best result and performance this season was when Kenny Black was in charge. The stick this guy gets is all speculation, hearsay or pure scapegoat stuff. We've not performed all season with three different managers in charge. I'm afraid it's down to the individual players now and no one else. So many not trying, so many making terrible mistakes, so many not anywhere near playing to standards they have already established. Kenny Black is not responsible for Fraser Kerr passing it straight to an Aberdeen players playing it out from the back or for Stephen McManus dozing off standing next to a guy that's scored 19 goals this season.
-
This season has been a real hard grind, one of the very worst I can remember in 30+ years. I've been to 16 matches this season and I'd say I've seen 1 90 minutes, against Dundee Utd, that was even in the realm of being acceptable, never mind actually good.
-
At best we have a small squad and there have been lots of injuries so Baraclough has not had anything like a free hand to pick a team. He's had to put out whoever we had fit and he's already given a few debuts and put younger players out like Dom Thomas and Luke Watt. I'd bite your hand off for 10th at the end of the season. Any team playing as badly as we have been all season would be very very lucky not to get relegated.
-
O'Brien is far and away our best central defender and his loan is up so things could get even worse! McManus has been shocking this season but even so he's better than Ramsden, Cummins or Kerr who are all even worse. In all honesty we could do with three new centre backs because none of them currently signed up are anywhere near good enough. Morgyn Neill can't be any worse than Kerr and you never know he might be significantly better. I'm like you, after yesterday I'm done with Kerr. He should never play again.
-
Dom Thomas has 39 minutes of football this season and goes into second place in my MotM award standings....
-
The thing that really concerns me is that we got, albeit not by playing well, the points we needed against St.Mirren, Partick and Ross County, pulled away from the relegation zone a bit and instead of getting better we've got worse again. The 2nd half against Partick, the Accies match and the first 70 minutes today were as bad as we've been all season, when you'd think we would have got a bit of a boost, taken some pressure off our selves and pushed on. What is going on?
-
Another desperate performance devoid of any attacking intent or ideas, full of players hiding not wanting the ball, nobody making runs, nobody closing down, nobody getting into space, nobody putting a tackle in. Kerr mistake for the goal just about summed up our season. Thomas changed the match when he came on. It's amazing what difference it made just to have one player, a kid, on there that ACTUALLY WANTED TO PLAY FOOTBALL. There is a big difference between starting games and coming on as a sub but Thomas should at least get the chance to start after his last two appearances. Fair play to Luke Watt, didn't look out of place although that could be a back handed compliment in this current team!
-
6 clean sheets as well. If you take the Celtic game out, it's 8 wins and 8 clean sheets. 6 of them have been 1-0 wins though so they haven't generally been blowing teams away.
-
Would like to see Thomas and Cadden get a start today but I think Erwin is really struggling and with Sutton scoring most of our goals recently I don't see a place in the team for him at the moment other than substitute. At least its a nice day today....
-
Dropping Sutton for Erwin? Really?
-
I was furious with the performance against Accies but we can't fall into a state of complete dejection because if we do that as a support the club is basically doomed to relegation. It's difficult but we have to get back up again for the Aberdeen match. There is no point criticising players for a perceived lack of moral character when we are in this difficult situation if you as a supporter can't set them an example. I know its a two way street but at the end of the day Motherwell Football Club should mean more to supporters than it does to a guy who wouldn't know where Motherwell is if there wasn't a professional contract in it for him. That doesn't mean that we need to delude ourselves. The players deserve criticism but when the next game comes round we also have to support these same guys because the future of our club is in their hands.
-
I never even saw any smoke bombs yesterday, I must have been so furious with what was happening on the park I didn't even notice. I did see the boy with the backpack though. Someone shamed his mother!
-
Not exactly how I'd describe him yesterday or in the last couple of games. Ojamaa reminds me a lot of Scott McDonald, obviously a talented player but someone who comes across as huffy and selfish. There was a great example yesterday when he had a simple ball to play in Ainsworth into the box and took the ball himself and tried to go run round the Accies defence himself. He's obviously got a petted lip from being asked to play out left as he hasn't bothered his backside in the last two matches. When Ainsworth shows you up for effort then you have a problem. Ojamaa is obviously a talented player but he has an attitude problem which is obviously why he has failed at a higher level. There you don't get to do what you like and have to play in a rigid system and work hard at aspects of the game that aren't glamourous. Well it looks like that's how things are going to be under Baraclough as well so he needs to adapt or risk falling by the way side.
-
Baraclough will be at a massive disadvantage over Gannon because Gannon had a far bigger war chest to spend than any other Motherwell manager post administration.
-
Might be why Accies have scored three times as many goals as us this season - 35 v 13.
-
On their two performances Accies would have humped us last season as well, just as Dundee Utd did. I've already said it tonight but Accies are in a different league from us as a football team and come the end of the season that might actually be literally true.
