foghorn Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 I am hoping the lunchtime kick off for TV suits us this week. Lights were on at the park earlier tonight. I guess some work being done on the park after today's weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

well_nuts Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 After last week I am really looking forward to this. They are solid in defense so I am thinking 1-0 us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Bezzer! Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 So the 5-1 win had nothing to do with atmosphere ? I just think we are better at counter attacking and that usually happens away from home .Hence 4 away wins and 1 at home. In response to that I'd say it's different when it's your home ground. I think it must effect confidence when players come out to their home ground and there is only a smattering of fans around the stands. Our recent away wins have been at grounds that struggle to attract a home crowd, in that case its been to our advantage. Of course, there is no one reason for anything, your opinion on the counter attack is also valid, partly down to the kind of players we have,partly down the the kind of manager we have. But I do think low attendances don't help on a whole number of levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StipeIsGod Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Attendances have been quite low, but for the last few games at Fir Park, there's been an almost palpable atmosphere of apathy as well. It's really been a bit weird. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottW1886 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Anyone know what time the Cooper starts selling pints tomorrow?? I'm sure it's 11.. The club issued an update last night which mentioned the Cooper. Edit: Yes, just read it... definitely says 11. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really been a bit weird. Atmosphere has been apathetic for years at most games. I think there is still a general downward trend. Outside small pocket at end of East stand rarely hear a murmour.

SteelEdge Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Our results at home this season have been piss poor, only 1 win (probably the worst record in the league?) and I bloody missed it!! I therefore haven't seen Motherwell win at Fir park since the last time we won at home which was the 5-1 game v St Johnstone back in April!!! I reckon I might miss this one aswell due to the petrol pence that it will incur. The fact that it's a 12:30 ko and is on Sky might just swing it. As long as we win though. Would probably settle for a point. Same as yourself and Tweed, I've not been at a Motherwell win since the St Johnstone game in April. Missed the ICT win due to a stag weekend. Seriously thought that run was going to come to an end v Dundee seeing as how rotten they'd been. Bit of a downer that I'm now at 210 days or something like that since I saw a win. Would love that run to end tomorrow, but I reckon it'll be a draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dabber Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 If we score first and play well the atmosphere does rise a few notches! Still nowhere near the level i'd like though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NottsMFC Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Quite happy to get in 0-0 at half time, not been great so far. Hoping for a big improvement second half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzyB Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Would hook Humphrey for Daley and give him 45 minutes, can't be any worse than Hump was! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
numpty Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Would hook Humphrey for Daley and give him 45 minutes, can't be any worse than Hump was! Humph has at least whipped in two great crosses in the first half, which is more than Murphy's created from the other side so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Very frustrating game. Hearts make it very difficult to break them down. Never felt we really got a hold of the midfield with Las and Law struggling to make any impact. Thought 2nd half was better and Murphy and Humphrey both looked more dangerous. Poorest Ive seen Higgy and Henrik for some time, although for the most part they were feeding off scraps. I suppose Hearts defensive record speaks for itself so overall not a bad point.

wellfan09 Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 dissapointing result, hearts played for the draw second half imo and got it. Thought hutch and humph were the stand outs in a pretty dire game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ya Bezzer! Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Instead of kicking on from last weeks result our home form got even worse! The first half was probably the worst Motherwell performance I've seen since the Malpas days. Players literally couldn't pass the ball to one another. I'd like to see what the pass completion stats were because I suspect that there would be players out there down at 30 or 40%! We didn't even manage a single shot on goal unless I'm forgetting some tame effort. The one single threat we had was a Higdon header that, to be fair, the keeper did well to save. The second half was much the same apart from a little bit more urgency for the last 15 minutes when we created a couple of chances. Why McCall waited until the 88th minute to make a substitution and then when he did, replace a left back with a left back is anyones guess. Not even close to good enough. McCall, it's your job to come up with a team and tactical set up that can win home matches as well as away matches and if things aren't working out then figure out on the touch line where its going wrong and then CHANGE IT. Honestly that today was just tripe. Can you image what the attendance is going to be against Ross County? Sub 4,000 probably. Actually going Christmas shopping would probably be more entertaining than going to Fir Park these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
