That went as I expected, although poorer performance wise, was a stick on home win, just the way we lost the last gasp equaliser, those things hurt and the way motherwell tend to bounce back after a poor result and criticism from Alexander, lose 6-1 to Rangers, beat Aberdeen and Hearts right after, lose 3-0 on sat, plus had two players back in that were missing on Saturday while we are undestrength in the key midfield area

If you saw how shocking we were for all of the 95 minutes would it make any difference.
And I mean shocking. Possibly the worst performance in recent memory.

That's exactly what I would have done too. Last 15 minutes definitely.

Yes and even more so because they were down to 10 men.They were dreadful in the air in their own box v Dundee so we try to pass it through them and a mass of puddles.

Maybe I misunderstood your post then

Minter that was on TV aswell, odd choice

Fair play though 764 away fans tonight, in those conditions for a TV game after a big support went to Dingwall three days ago

Deserved a lot better

Exactly! They're down to 10 men so no reason why we can't put Edwards up front and launch long balls. What is the manager watching?

And why do we do nothing quickly? No quick free-kicks or throw-ins. And when we eventually do take them, they're absolute sh!te.

We're a decent team with Mulgrew, Edwards, Fuchs and Levitt. More than one of them missing and we struggle.

On top of that, a few fringe players getting into the team that are clearly not good enough - lightweight and powder-puff.
