roly Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 I'd say that our league position at this stage in the season is bang on track. That said performances have been poor of late and improvment is definetly needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Bezzer! Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Last season we got to the Scottish Cup Final took our foot off the pedal, put in some terrible performances and looked a poor side. This season we got to 3rd place in the league took our foot off the pedal, put in some terrible performances and looked a poor side. Sometimes you wonder if this side has a real winners mentality or if they are happy just to be 'doing OK'. They don't seem to be really 'hungry' and I don't think McCall has really done much to change that, if anything he's legitimized that mentality with some of his comments.

Big Stall Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Bring back gannon, he had us what 9th in the league when we punted him? Much better than we'r doing now....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 aye, thats going to look great. Manager gets team into cup final, top half of the table, has a few dodgy performances like every over spl team, and gets punted. aye, very good. Perhaps, now is the time for him to shine. Easy when we were winning, but he at least deserves times to sort this mini slide. The staff at Fir Park need knuckle down and work harder.

Finlay Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 A caller to Radio Scotland seems to think so. Whilst I think he has set the team up wrong in a few games this season I am still happy with our position and recent achievements. I am still happy with and 100% behind McCall although he does need to stop messing with the back four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Stall Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Nah i'm no at the wind up im just asking if we still have faith in McCall .I don't but that's just me . I would say top 6, cup final& current league position should earn him time to fix the situation, even from guys that dont rate him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickoza Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 We're fourth with two games in hand over the team a point above us, it's mid-January with almost two-thirds fo the season gone and for the first time this season we've dropped out of the top three. We're in the middle of a bad run of form (which EVERYONE has during a season). Clearly time to get rid of the manager.............NOT. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nethertonwellfan Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Haha what a thread this is. How many Motherwell managers would have had the sack if we fired managers after 3 league defeats in a row. Motherwell don't sack managers for being 4th in the league.

Onthefringes Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Honestly? That chat is fuckin' diabolical. I'm as annoyed at the lack of a plan B as the next, but, time running out? Time running out on this board and half the morons who post. They worked harder than us today. That's the base line for next week. Well, that and Jamie Murphy getting some heart.

DEWELL Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 I still have faith in Stuart McCall but our recent performances have been as bad as anything i've witnessed from crap Motherwell teams through the years. I do believe that up front we're really poor and i know im upsetting happy clappers here who no doubt will reply with he wins his fair share of high balls bit Michael Higdon and Jamie Murphy are crap together. This is not a knee jerk reaction they've been pish for weeks now and hopefully Stuarty can do some business in the window to kick start our faltering season because he must be pissed off as iam at our feeble attempts to score at home. Chris Humprey can leave too in my opinion and we should be looking to get someone of the calibre of Ryan Stevenson whose out of contract. So i'll reserve my judgement as to whether McCall's going to get us back on track with what happens during this January. What i do know is WE NEED A FECKIN STRIKER!!!!!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fat_tony Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 We're fourth with two games in hand over the team a point above us, it's mid-January with almost two-thirds fo the season gone and for the first time this season we've dropped out of the top three. We're in the middle of a bad run of form (which EVERYONE has during a season). Clearly time to get rid of the manager.............NOT. Exactly Rickoza. Plus, look at the last few years over December/January. 2010/11 - started dropping down the table prior to and after Brown left. Took a while to stabilise after McCall came in, probably into February before we really started turning around. 2009/10 - in freefall under Gannon until Brown came in and shored us up in January. 2008/09 - Bottom of the table at Christmas (I think) under McGhee and improved somewhat after the break. In know some of these coincided with managers being on their way out the door but look as far back as you like and we more often than not struggle around this time of year. Maybe it's the cold or just the size of squad but a slump is to be expected in any season and we seem to have ours around this time. We'll turn it around as we usually do but those writing our season off already need to take a few deep breaths. If we still haven't scored/won at home come March, then you can start the moaning.

henry Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 From firparkcorner .....Great post sums it up perfectly. We have not won at home for nearly 4 months, we haven't even came close to winning in 4 months. We have not had 1 good performance at home in 4 months. Yet all the excuse makers come up with drivel like " well we are doing well away from home " .Let me tell you ,you are all missing the point. We are in a false position and as I have said we are in freefall. As far as our manager goes - Tell me what formation were we playing today, who was doing what. In the stands nobody understood what was going on.The only thing that was clear is that we didn't make their goalie have a save nor did we have a serious shot on goal. the big hump up to Higdon, the knock down to nobody and we need to start again. This is a shambles. Watching 60 mins of failure and nothing gets done then he decides to try and change something.I am telling you we will struggle to finnish in the top six. FREEFALL FREEFALL FREEFALL. BUT FEEL FREE TO MAKE MORE EXCUSES. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Diggle Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 I agree - that post sums up firparkcorner perfectly. The term 'false position' is one I love Like the SPL had us in the top three all season out of the goodness of their heart - we've actually only had enough points for 10th place? Is that what we're saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzyB Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 We actually won at home last week so that guy is clearly talking shite from the off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosser_fae_the_shire Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Jesus fuck. I assume the moaning faced c***s on here are the ones who were sitting near me in the east stand today. Honestly dint know why you c***s go to games. Fuckin brainless wankers. We're sitting 4th in the league and I know we're not having a good season at home but I reckon 4th isn't bad at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart McCall Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Chris Humprey can leave too in my opinion and we should be looking to get someone of the calibre of Ryan Stevenson whose out of contract. Totally agree! was in the 'gossip column' the other day that he might be in for a return to Ayr United.. surely we should be sniffing around. But also agree with the comment about Higdon and Murphy, Higdon cannot play upfront by himself, he gets so isolated and i dont think Murphy is a proper 'striker'. If we want to keep up with the top half (basically Hearts) we need to get a decent striker in on loan or whatever and Mccall needs to be willing to change tactics! too many midfield players for a team with a limited budget. i fear a slip in the table but hopefully he proves me wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inthebasement Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Quite sure McCall has been around long enough to put a moronic thread like this in perspective, but it's still shocking to see a title like that at the top of our board. Grow up and get a clue forfucksake. Did you think we would just always win games from here on in? No bad spells? Cheapo signings amazing every week? Does a bad run prove our manager's 'limitations'? We should be happy to be in top six, and we will still finish 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 McCall's job will be under threat when we're in the position that clubs like Hibs & Aberdeen have found themselves in. We're sitting fourth. If we finish in that position I'll be happy enough, even if the aim for a club like us should always be top six and a decent cup run if possible.
