Let’s be honest 

Poor result today tho positives we can take from this season like Beating Rangers and drawing to Celtic staying safe 

Let’s go and get in that top 6 next season 🧡💛

top 6 will only be a hope if we get shot of 75% of that squad. That squad will always keep us down amongst the dead men.

The only way we are going to to progress is investment of some kind until then we are just plodding along.

Sorry we fell well short. Given where we were months ago, 9th spot was fine. We deserved to finish 9th and not 10th or 8th.

 The point I was making was that a few weeks ago we still had a chance of top six.

mathematically yes , ability and performance wise it was never happening, however its all about opinions if you think that squad would serve us well next season id just need to respectfully disagree.

That's not what I suggested. We probably didn't deserve it when we got it a couple of seasons ago either.

If you're so sure of that why would you return next season? Some form of masochism? I don't understand such an attitude.

Because I won't stop supporting the club I've followed for 30+ years just because the current manager and the majority of the squad are crap. Most of them and the manager will be gone soon enough.

Your positivity is great but this season has seen an unbelievable winless run and some absolute eye-bleeding football..............i for one am happy that the season is over!!!!!

Eye bleeding football, winless run aye OK then, we comfortably avoided relegation, scored lots of goals, put the Rangrs hoodoo to bed, and secured a 39th consecutive in the top flight, aye its been a poor season right enough 🤦‍♂️

Well that was an anti climax to season.  I don't get why SK changes to a 4 4 2, ye let's bring bevis back and have absolute mare for 2nd goal.  Bair pen shocking and Nicholson looked like guy you bring Fir game of 7 a sides when you are a man short.

But.......we are still in top league and let's Hope a great transfer window...if not....then yes I have the fear

I assume SOD must have been carrying a knock or been unwell.

SK wont be going anywhere, he'll be in charge  for next season , but look on the bright side you'll have a reason to moan right from the off, so happy days for you.

Well, given the generally negative remarks you make at length and so frequently, I suppose your definition of "supporting" and mine are not quite the same. I've had over sixty years of ups and downs with MFC and know how hard it is for us to survive in the stacked deck of Scottish football. And , no, I don't expect a medal but it does perhaps offer some perspective when considering our difficulties.

Most of the current squad will be gone next season anyway (surely an improvement?) and if Kettlewell is so  "crap", were you so voluble about his two predecessors, when we were in free fall post-Sligo and its SPL aftermath? Or did your negativity have a longer history?

If I were so convinced   things were going to be  absolute shite in August and found so much at Fir Park  unsatisfactory, I think I would find another interest/activity to spare me such angst.

Good to know that you'll be around to support the club next year, though, once the manager and all the  crap players have been removed.

I don't see him going anywhere either.

Maybe Casey and Devine were also unfit. But why were all 3 on the bench? It's the only rational explanation, in part,  for SK's apparent pre match brainstorm.

Strange old season, from taking Hearts apart in the second game, winning the next two (while not playing that well in long periods of these two but still getting the results) the season ahead looked pretty bright, then the wheels came off.  Did enough later on to stay up and even have a couple of week flirt with top six and of course the long awaited beating of Rangers, you could call it a season of highs and lows with just a few too many lows. The one thing that didn't happen this time round, was the players downing tools when things went bad. The effort and togetherness was always there and these draws during the bad run helped a lot in keeping us up. 

Ive been supporting Motherwell since about 1972 and nothing surprises me any more really. We'll have good years and bad years. A lot of people forget that we flirted with relegation for 3/4 of the 90/91 season.

Hopefully we can do good business this summer, but every year it gets harder for the teams with the smaller budgets to compete and spending what you don't have is a recipe for oblivion, despite what the 'show some ambition' brigade seem to think. It's a crap cliche but it is a rollercoaster. Next season we might be brilliant or we might be shite, or, more likely, we'll be somewhere in between.

Alternative theory is that it was a Mugabi send off whereas SOD will be here next season.
Same with substitute Butcher.

Eye Bleeding Football is a myth. Third top scorers in league. Plenty of ballers in the team. It was worse with Alexander.

Cheap stupid goals are the issue. Craigan pointed out they were repetitive and got to agree.

Controversially I wouldn't resign SOD or McGinn.

Are you having a laugh!!!!

If you're happy with the way the season has gone just because we avoided relegation then it says more about you than most of us.

I can't believe you are ok with the winless run, remind me again how many games it was...............

I suppose you loved our cup runs as well............

Surely people can have different opinions. I'm happy that we avoided relegation. It doesn't mean I don't want us to do better. As for most of us. What does that mean? Most people on here. Most supporters?
