I met Alan on a number of occasions when as our media man he used to cover our under 20's games at Bathgate. Down to earth guy and a Motherwell fan like us. Wasn't to sure when he got the general managers job (or whatever it's called), but he seems to be growing into it and as he says in his interview "he's made mistakes", but learned from them. What I really like is our open relationship between the club and fans. Refreshing.

Paul Quinn fits the bill, struggling ex player looking for an easy shift tae end his career on..... you'll do nicely my son.

Been watching Well for over 50 years and Skippy was up there with the best.

Me tae.

Not a former player but Dylan Mackin is playing for Alloa v Brechin ,on BBC Alba now.

No far away mate. And he's scored.

Lose 3 goals in 5 mins...seriously.

If were honest ,they all can go.

Good summary Dave.

So it's Robinson next season ,no my choice but I'm not going tae go on about it, getting behind him and the team next season. Hope I'm wrong ,I often am, have a good pre season lads...

Sometimes players sign and it's a good fit ,John Sutton comes to mind as a player who did a good job for Motherwell but struggled at other clubs, well Hearts anyway. Clancy from Killie fitted in well ,as did Higdon.

I've got no doubt whatsoever that if we stay up the powers that be will give Robbo the year left on his contract. Sorry but I foresee another season fighting relegation with a team of ex players and lower league duds, and Robinson in charge ...aye right.

Hope we don't get all sentimental about things if we stay up, the big picture for me is Robinson and most of the team must be punted.

Just my gut feeling that we will win and I think it will be good as it's a local derby ,both teams fighting relegation, decent crowd.Id go as far as saying it's the top fixture in the league this weekend.....

Think we will win on Saturday, should be a cracking game got all the ingredients.

The biggest mistake we made was bringing Robinson back at all, looking at the big picture as a club were going nowhere with the present set up ,on and of the park. Shambles of a club.

I think we've missed McManus.

Definitely us along with Accies and Inverness tae decide the relegation and play off place. Dundee, Ross Co and Killie are looking safe .

I just can't see us beating Ross county ,just as in the past few seasons they seem tae be raising their game when it matters.

The club is riddled with non entities. As for the result ...are we really surprised .

Armadale thistle Dave,now they really are rank rotten.

Well that rules us out..

Ball was "over the line" imo .

Soon as we went one down I knew we were beat, were as predictable as that. Only good thing was other results were kind to us.If were rubbish (which we are) and could get relegated this season,that logic must apply equally to others as well.

If we can get a point at Ibrox we can get a point at Firhill. And I'd take a point away from home against a good thistle side.
