That’s a sore one. From about the 60th minute mark onwards we were very good and gave it everything. Players should be proud of getting ourselves back into the game. Lawless can fuck off though, useless.

During half time in extra time, Jock Brown picked up on Alexander spending a few minutes with his staff before getting in about the players. Anyone else find that a bit weird?

Give O’Donnell the armband just now.

Obviously pleased to progress but there was little pleasure to be gained from that tonight. Kelly and Hastie the positives. With the likely absence of Roberts, Watt and now Campbell in the weeks ahead, I’m grateful we’ve steered cleared of the relegation battle. As for the cup, hard to see this bunch getting any success, the lack of quality and desire was there for all to see tonight.

Dreadful. Can’t be arsed watching extra time.

To begin with...

I don’t think we can have a go at the SFA in this instance. While there may not be a written protocol, there will be an understanding of what is the ‘done thing’ in such circumstances. English football, rugby, cricket and horse racing have altered their fixtures while the decision on the snooker world champs is pending. Had the SFA not done likewise, they’d be open to staunch criticism. With no crowds, the inconvenience is minimal so we might as well take this on the chin and give royalists one less thing to greet about.

Taylor and Considine too unless I’ve drifted off in the final minutes of a game.

Huge few weeks ahead for Gallagher. He’s now fell well down the pecking order of centre halves to the extent his place in the final 23 could be touch and go.

Disappointing result for Scotland but O’Donnell put in some shift, he’ll sleep well tonight. He also spoke well post match, befitting of a proper club captain.

Solid performance from O’Donnell in what was a good game and decent point for Scotland. Plenty for Declan to ponder as he sits on the bench for club and country...

Excellent again today. It was evident from the first minute that we had the bit between our teeth today. Good performances all round with the likes of Lamie and Crawford impressing more and more each week while Roberts has been the catalyst to our upturn in form.

So many choices today, with everyone to a man playing their part. Lamie edges it for me though, his performance level has improved significantly under Alexander and he set the tone early on today with two very clean tackles. He also deserves recognition for holding the defence together when he has an absolute novice alongside him.

Outstanding from start to finish today. The response to the St Johnstone game has been excellent this week. No danger of getting relegated now.

I may have been influenced by Jocks’ commentary but I thought Robbie Crawford was very tidy. I like him.

A very well earned point, plenty of effort and it was evident that we’ve learned lessons from the previous two defeats. We can go to Easter Road with a degree of confidence.

It probably won’t be long until we hear the bold Mo talking candidly on Sportsound.

Fair play to Jordan White. He has his limitations but as he showed at Inverness and now at County, he’ll get on the end of balls into the box and score a few. Unfortunately he joined Motherwell side that has no idea how to get the ball in the box. We are right back in the mire.

Whilst acknowledging the team was decimated by injury, illness and whatever else, that performance was quite something yesterday. If Alexander wasn’t just in the door, you’d be thinking the writing was on the wall. The players that don’t appear to give a shit are obviously the biggest culprits this season but what the hell were we doing in January with this glut of signings that are nowhere to be seen? It worries me that the squad is almost as bloated now during a pandemic as it was when Les was throwing money at it.

Wow. Withdrawing Barry Maguire is one of the most jaw-dropping decisions I’ve seen in a while.

Kelly didn’t have much to do but he has such a reassuring influence on the team. I’m really impressed with his leadership. As for Bevis, I love the guy. I missed the Celtic game so that aside, I can’t recall the last he didn’t have at least a 7/10.

I couldn’t bear us relocating to Ravenscraig. Such a grim area.

A very well earned three points. It might not have been pretty but we defended well, worked our balls off and came to life as an attacking threat on occasion. Follow this up with a win on Saturday and can starting thinking seriously about clinching a top 6 spot.

United couldn’t handle Cole at all. Excellent. Watt and Long weren’t too bad alongside him either.

That was a proper game tonight. We could easily have been out of sight but given how mundane much of this season has been, I actually enjoyed riding the nerves for the last 10/15 mins. There’s obviously a few areas that need improving but there’s so many positives to cherish tonight, from our very assured keeper to the incisive interplay of our front three. Miles better that where we were for much of 2020.
