    No that's what your interpretation is not what I meant by it so don't start that rubbish

    What I obviously meant is it was 0-0 and we were pretty comfortable, we didn't look like losing a goal at that time of the VAR intervention

    Going in at half time goalless is just fine away from home, especially at the toughest away venue currently

    It's a double dunter as they are difficult to score against, for everyone not just us so to go behind due to a VAR penalty award is typical

    So Nick Walsh who tells the ref to give an imaginary VAR red card last week in the St Mirren v Motherwell is allocated to ref our game today.

    This. We can barely control the football.
    Our second touch is trying to win it back.
    We can't string 3 passes together.

    And as for Watters, absolutely terrible.

    According to Tam English on EBC Scotland open all mikes its stupidity by Sevelj a penalty and he could also have been sent off.Michael Stewart on the other hand is not so sure there is sufficient force with the elbow to warrant a red card but reluctantly concedes its a penalty.

    Motherwell were claiming for another spot kick later in the half with the same two players involved again.Sevelj is involved again in the 2nd goal with an unlucky deflection.

    We look comfortable because we have 11 men behind the ball. Their keeper has his cigar out playing in defensive midfield. Which is fine, there's obviously a tactic there to stop them having their way in midfield but by we are absolutely dreadful on the ball its actually incredible. For a professional team to be as bad with a football as we are is quite unbelievable.

    Even accounting for our shelling the ball up to our forwards, Waters is largely a waste of space. I'd say get Fatah on. Ah, game was all but over at 1-0, 2-0 no chance. Our season is in a death spiral, and keeping an eye out on Killie scores.

    For those who are glass half full you'll be worrying about that, for others who aren't in panic merchant mode then I accept mid table second season back is ok, the rest of the season is to finish top of bottom half ahead of the fun and northern fun and try to get through in the cup

    And back our club and team to do it

    This team has zero identity, the lack of technical ability is staggering. How can a full time professional team not pass a ball, find a man, link play, play through balls, beat a man and swing it into the danger area. It?s all panic, hoof the ball up the park when NOBODY is even there. We are a squad of giants and we are so weak, poor in the air. Camara is like Bambi on ice constantly giving the ball away, was glad when he subbed along with Eskesen and Ferrugia both anonymous. 6 wins all season absolutely no way near good enough, major change required now.
