Good luck with that on here. Most of the moaners on here - which accounts for over 50% rarely if ever take into account anything other than worse case scenario pretty much all the time. Look at Hibs and United. Budgets of 2 to 3 times ours. They have had as bad a season so far or worse. We have a new Manager finding his feet. We have a bottom 6 budget. We have had key injuries over the past month. We have been in all games and our GD is better than most of the league. But no we are pish. The Managers appointment was a mistake. He should be sacked blah blah blah. The truth is somewhere in between but this site is depressing at the best of times. And b4 anyone says if you don’t like it etc. I now spend most of my time on P&B. Much more sensible and balanced posts imho.

Good post. Out of keeping with most of the negative views on here. But good to read some common sense and not just utter despair. It has not been a good run. But it has been a tough set of fixtures and we have not had much rub of the green. The players are injured / knackered / lacking confidence (because of results) or a combination of all 3. It was not that long ago we were playing very good football at home and outplaying Hearts and United despite the end results Hopefully we can get back to that after the World Cup with some easier (on paper at least) fixtures and start climbing up the table.

With that one line. It kinda shows why the rest of your post is all things considered utter shite.

Pretty much. Miss relatively easy chances - ✅ Lose the ball easily - ✅ Let the opposition score a goal with their 1st shot on target - ✅ We have all seen this show before

That is as maybe. But that will happen quite a lot. Then you just have to ask your defence to defend and not let a midfielder get a header in between your two Centre backs. What is more galling is that it was a header that could have gone anywhere. But just so happens to loop into the top corner. Our defending is woeful but luck is and was not on our side with that one.

No..but our defending will.

Just watched the highlights. Gordon should have been off the pitch and that was a huge fuck up which ultimately cost us. All that said Sols best impression of an orang-utan was impressive. 89 minutes gone. Every player if the Premiership down south is literally trying to glue their arms to their sides when a ball is played near them in the box. Not Sol. Such a cheap goal to lose.

Your last sentence sums up why we are losing games. It is not like it has happened once. This allowing opposition players to run unopposed is costing us dearly. I have not seen the highlights / goals. Tempted not to watch them as I will only be more angry than I am now. And that would be difficult. Angry at the soft goals we conceded. Angry at the piss poor officiating. How Gordon is not given another yellow after conceding a penalty. That is basic refereeing. We would have still no doubt ballsed it up but against 9 men we may have got a point. Also suggestions Goss was fouled and onside which could have resulted in a penalty. Not getting the breaks but creating our own problems. Only Celtic up next ! I might have calmed down by then. Might…..

As of right now it is utter shite. See if we had lost 2-0 to an 11 man Hearts team you could understand as they have better players. But to get back to 2-2 and then lost so late on is a real kick in the haw maws. Just serves to piss me off and most other Well fans more than we ordinarily would be…

This is inexcusable. We are as soft as shite. Would not matter if Hearts were down to 9 men or even 4. We would find a way to shit the bed. To get back to 2-2 and concede v 10 men is exactly how you would expect this Motherwell team to lose. Fucking imposters.

I have seen a clip and Goss leg definitely moves as if there was contact. I don’t mind Michael Stewart but he was ragin and making it out as if there was 100% no contact. Sportscene will b interesting. 3 points are 3 points and it is 3 times as many as we got when we battered United and Hearts at home. So will take it.

Don’t be surprised if there is a clause in the contract that allows us to terminate loan deal during winter break. That is just as plausible given his injury record. Either way it would be a bummer as we all would like him to be even half the player he was last time around.

After Sligo debacle we would all have jumped at being 4 points off 3rd place after 1st round of fixtures. Granted there are some teams who still have a game in hand. Also having a 0 GD is almost impressive by our normal standards. But we are in a bit of a slump. 4 points from 21 is not great at all. Injuries to key players not helping. Concerning to see Moult not even listed in match day squad. We badly need a win next couple of league games to stop this from becoming a bigger and more worrying problem.

I already said I wanted the games to go ahead. Pay our respects etc. Problem is judging by responses on P&B and MFC Twitter there would be many fans who would likely embarrass themselves, their clubs and the Nation. This will happen anyway no doubt sadly when we get the games back on.

Interesting point. However in the last two home games at Fir Park we have had 3x minutes applause for 3 people who had passed away including a very young girl. I never knew any of them but I was happy enough to show my respect and not just because they were Motherwell fans. Just the decent thing to do. I have no issues with people not liking the monarchy or the Queen. I have issues with them outwardly insulting and showing utter contempt and disrespect. Just not needed and not on a football forum.
