    Genius your not

    So we go in 2-1up at half time and the tactical genius who is SM decides we drop of them pull Sutton back to left midfield and invite them on to us .The only team that suffered were us Cmon Stuart cut out the tinkering you don't have to prove your a tactical genius if it's not broke leave it alone .Also like to say the players were great today some fantastic performances young Jack was immense

    Is this a wind up? We were far more adventures in the second half, and certainly matched Celtic. If we continued to defend as deep as we were in the first half, we certainly would have conceded goals.

    I think Stuart McCall deserves great credit for pushing the players forward in the second half.

    Great point, hard earned

    Dosser,

    The manager has had to change it. We played Celtic with three at the back to match up against their two up front (They played 4-4-2 with a diamond) in the first half.

    They switched at half time to go basically 4-3-3 which would have left us man-for-man at the back.

    It would have been complete suicide to leave it as it was - we'd have been stretched beyond belief.

    We had to get it back to a four whilst keeping an extra man in midfield. That's why Sutty had to fill in on the flank.

    You move Zaine to keep Izaguirre in, which is with Big Handsome moves to the left.

    As it happens, we still created decent chances in the second...

    By putting Sutton back into the midfield he took away our attacking threat Shellic are murder at the back .Do you honestly believe if we had went in 2 up at half time he would have made that change no chance ,we can't keep teams out so why try and sit in .As we all saw when he went positive at the end we got what we deserved but really is 2 points dropped

    We created numerous chances in the second half? Kayal cleared Kerr's header off the line, Forster has had to make a last ditch claw to deny Vigurs, Anier's turn and shot was turned around and Leitch shot wide after a nice one-two with Vigurs... Not including one or two shots over the bar?

    We created as much in the second as we did in the first...

    If we had gone 3 vs 3 at the back, we'd have lost a flood of goals as Celtic have real pace in attack.

    Managers have to react to other team's changes as it's switches the balance of the match, particularly when the team you're playing are, man for man, superior.

    I thought we sat back to much in the last 15 minutes, it looked like we had settled for a point. McCall brought on ainsworth when we went 3 2 down, i thought he should have made that change earlier and had a go at them becase the celtic defense didn't look comfortable all afternoon.

    FGreat performace today...but not according to the Poisoned Pixie at full time on BBC Scot his comments once again let himself down.. " We gave Motherwell two goals they did not have to work for them" ... "They only had one attack in the 2nd half and scored". He was obviously away for a pi55 when we had two cleared off the line 2nd half...Gave no credit what so ever to The Well or acknowledged their contribution to a great game. He really is a total Pr1ck of a man and only makes anything else he says as laughable. Ps..Highlight of the season was watching the 'Tic fans doing their ridiculous bouncy bouncy at 2-3 ... then looking over their shoulder as we scored, donkey ears please. Pps well done Gunnar excellent penalty stop and performance.

    No one deserves death threats, or bullets in the post, the people that do that are scum. But he really does win

    We certainly deserved something from the game. I heard lennon's interview, He is just a very bitter man when he doesn't get his own way. As for the celtic fans. They make a complete c*** of themselves every time they come to fir park, win lose or draw.
