The problem we have which can?t be fixed in my opinion is that we rightly wouldnt accept some of the shyte that other teams in the league are happy to. We cant afford to sign players that will make a consistent difference though. We will never be able to spend the money to be noticeably better than the shyte.

It was at St. Mirren I had this revelation so I?ll use them as an example. We wouldn?t accept Alex Gogic at AFC as we all know he?s pish. When they play us though he always plays like Franco Baresi while their triple barrel surnamed striker scores his only goal of the season against us to win. It?s infuriating. How many no mark Motherwell players down the years have turned into wonder players for 90mins?

We?ll continue to turn up in large numbers & other teams will know our players can?t handle it. We?re stuck in a shyte Goldilocks zone that we will never get out. Nothing will ever change. COYR!
Wouldn?t be against a player like Gogic in our midfield - not him but a player who works hard and can break things down, sit defensively and not afraid of physical contact. Also big and strong enough to win headers
There has to be players out there who could play that role for us in certain games when not all about playing tippy happy football
I like Polvara but he doesn?t have the physicality to play in a defensive role for me
