texanwellfan Posted November 10, 2019 Report Share Posted November 10, 2019 So if you are expecting to win do you (or would you) normally bet a decent amount on us beating Celtic or rangers away? Say fifty quid. If the answer is no then I’d hazard a guess that you also really don’t expect us to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the latter. The team selection should have told everyone what all they needed to know........damage limitation from the off. No bad injuries or red cards. From the highlights our old failings (midfield sitting too deep and full backs leaving flanks exposed) were once again exploited. Its not a game that'll define our season, so we move on.

I can't agree. The team selection was one, as much as availability allowed, that replicated a formation which helped us take the lead away to a team that currently separated by goal difference from Celtic two weeks ago. That had two forwards playing. That was a minute away from going in at the break ahead and that only lost in the last 10 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it because he was a Celtic fan and playing Celtic? So in the space of a year (he wore one last year for Livingston) he's decided that if playing Celtic on Remembrance he wouldn't wear one(guess who Livingston played last year...) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted November 10, 2019 Report Share Posted November 10, 2019 From what I can gather it simply fell off nothing more, nothing less. No story in it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goggles & Flippers Posted November 10, 2019 Report Share Posted November 10, 2019 If you can understand the premise of a post (which I'd hope as you have a wee red moderator below your username) the posts wasn't commenting on the merits of wearing poppy or not, more the story released that it fell off. But for the record yeah I think a certain percentage of our population are embarrassing in the same way I look at some posts on here as embarrassing.

grizzlyg Posted November 10, 2019 Report Share Posted November 10, 2019 What frustrates me a lot this season is the manner of goals we are conceding. Giving away far too many cheap goals. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallagher was the best Motherwell player on the park (in my option), poppy or not. One of the reasons I support Motherwell is to get away from the political and bigoted nonsense that blights the Old Firm and much of the West of Scotland. Seems you just can’t escape it no matter who you support which is far more depressing than a 2-0 defeat today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_P Posted November 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2019 Let's leave the debate about poppies aside folks eh? From the match thread at least. Good old Compost Corner is your place for a good debate about them if the notion takes you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point of defeating fascism was to give people the right to choose to do what they wanted, ie wear a poppy or not, vote for Brexit etc so why cant we all just accept the fact that there are different opinions on everything in life and everyone is entitled to there own, so let's all get along and enjoy the football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like one of the other posters I also disagree with your perception of the team selection. I also think the fact that we continually pressed Celtic high up the park conflicts with your perception. Not to say I am right and you are wrong but your point is certainly up for discussion. Add to that the fact that our subs were all forward positions ending up with Seedorf, Scott and Hylton on the park indicates to me that we were trying to get something out of the game. Yes there may be many things we can and should improve on but I am ok with the overall performance. For me we have only let ourselves down on 3 occasions this year. Hearts in league cup, Ross county and Aberdeen at home. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s very much fitting a modern full back style at the moment. Have a look at the bigger picture or game management as it’s termed. Offering much needed drive and energy he regularly serves as our only outball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
