Particularly when he was saying that the second goal was from moves they worked on in training. I am liking Halliday more by the day tbh Last season I was not so sure about Andy Halliday This season he has came on leaps and bounds , must be at least a contender for Well player of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsterwood Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago 12 hours ago, FirParkCornerExile said: My reference to SK was the way we set up this season, however the two games last year were bit more smash n grab and hitting on the break. I thought we had far more control of the game on Saturday than we normally do. This true. Reflected in possession stats also as markedly better. We had below or around 30% possession against St Johnston both cup and league games. and Kilmarnock. Also recent stats reflect more contacts in final third. 40% against Dundee, 6 shots on target and 19 touches in box and Ranger had 14 touches in box and 3 shots on target. Early signs very positive. St Johnston cup match most dissapointing having 1 shot on target. Out with a whimper. Pity we didn't get Wimmer in before that. Still future looks positive. Suppose Scouts/Kettlewell deserve some credit for some of the signings that came in that now look fairly good. Positive signs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellgirl Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago I think big Ox would be in with a shout if he hadn't got injured - still might get it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago Yeah Halliday is quite decent. He's always good on the podcasts and SSB. Also think the last few games are up there with some of his best in a Motherwell strip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago 15 minutes ago, twistandshout1983 said: Great to hear that Andy Halliday was sticking up for us I don't have a problem with who a player supports , or where loyalties lie All u can ask for is that a player puts in an honest shift like he did , same as the likes of Davie Cooper, Bobby Russell and Tommy Coyne did Exactly. Most professional players have no problems putting aside their boyhood allegiances to do their job. It's a completely different mindset. Another classic example is Scott McDonald. He didn't exactly hold back on Skippy Sunday. He did (and enjoyed) the job we were paying for, in front of the home fans he played for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you I think had it not been for the tragic death of Phil O'Donnell he may have jumped ship to Hearts. He does deserve credit for the way he handled the tragic death of Phil O'Donnell. He doesn't. watch the interviews back, he's whoring himself for the Scotland job, lip service to his employers at the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was berated for slowing things down by continually turning back on himself and killing any momentum we had going forward but it now looks like he was only following orders.

FirParkCornerExile Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago No one will convince me the team hadn't had enough of Kettlewells tactics. https://www.glasgowworld.com/sport/football/motherwell-fc/no-rangers-fear-approach-inspired-motherwell-win-ibrox-fir-park-5014227 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago No doubt. When you're a professional footballer it must be demotivating having to sit in and and/or hit long balls, ending every game with 30% possession. The thing is, it looks like the scouts managed to identify some decent players - we just didn't play to their strengths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
