wellfan Posted September 14 Report Share Posted September 14 Given both their form and ours, a draw would probably be a fair result for us, although a win against them at Pittodrie isn’t beyond us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
star sail Posted September 14 Report Share Posted September 14 35 minutes ago, steelboy said: I think you are making some fair points about wanting to see a good performance but when the first line of the post is totally defeatist it suggests a certain mindset. To move it away from Motherwell there are still people making excuses for Steve Clarke despite all the defeats this year. I think this attitude from the fans actually hurts our teams because when a Scottish manager knows that a draw or narrow defeat is acceptable they will play for that result and it becomes a downward cycle. Aberdeen have started well but aren't a juggernaut. We should be aiming for a clean sheet today as a bear minimum and see what we can do at the other end. I agree with what you say about the Scottish psyche when it comes to winning football matches. It is no coincidence that we lost to Poland and Portugal with late goals. Hungary in the Euros was another example. There is a weakness in the mindset in Scotland that seems to make us terrified of success. The national rugby team displays the exact same flaws. It is not specifically a Motherwell problem as you say yourself but as Motherwell fans we can we guilty of thinking with that Scottish defeatist mindset. I'm not sure though that is proof that SK should have been sacked after 15 winless games. The positive end to last season and the good start to this season is a bigger factor in suggesting that it was right to give him time during that difficult spell. I would imagine that quite a few Aberdeen fans will see Motherwell as their bogey team. We have a habit of inflicting some painful defeats on them so why not continue that trend by ending their winning start to the season. 1-2 Motherwell.

He also fucked up earlier for the one that went by the post. A total imposter. Robinson is brutal as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted September 14 Report Share Posted September 14 Davor done for speed like alot of our players today. If Davor was to touch him there, he would have been off. Thought there was a deflection. Our attack are very pedestrian. Robinson seems sluggish. Aberdeen much sharper so far. Need Miller to drop back a little to get more involved.

mio Posted September 14 Report Share Posted September 14 We’ve kept with the same winning team so we can’t really argue with the players who have kept the jerseys. I think if it does remain like this to half time tho a refresh has to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
