Dundee United hand Motherwell a beating

That was a horror show. We were chasing shadows at the back and hopeless at the front. Ugh! - view external link

Can only hope that was so bad there's a reaction to come - will be incredibly tough next week against St Johnstone who have hit form but four clear with three to play (two at home, none against Celtic) is still a great position to be in.

McCall will have his work cut out this week though.

I wish I was as confident.

Dunno if confident is quite right...but we've seen in the last two seasons that it's incredibly hard to chase down a lead at this stage of the season.

United were absolutely horrific last week so it's far from certain they'll maintain their performance today in the remaining games. Similarly, as dark a mood as we're in now, is it really likely we'll lose the next three in a row? We've beaten Inverness the last twice we played them, tanked St J 4-0 the last time they came to FP and have a great record at Pittodrie.

So while there will be plenty of nerves stil

Pathetic drivel. A waste of time and money. I seriously worry about our bottle. Will we get over the line not so sure.

For those worried about Hutchison leaving I suggest you should be worried about him and his fellow defenders staying... we finally got there, even I thought we might not match the grim stats, but here it is

Motherwell goals against 59
Hearts Juniors goals against 59

we now officially have the joint worst defence in the league and by fpuck it shows.

...utterly appalling statistic and the tactics today from the off were utterly mind numbing. Freezing cold day on Tayside and A?45 quid to watch that utter sh1te.

No 4th is our destination, that defence cannot sustain us for the remaining games.

GUBBED by a better team on the day, put t behind us and move forward, I predict we will not play as bad as that for the rest of the season. What was really annoying was, apart from Lasley that was the same team that fought so hard and played so well against the manky mob last week!

Wish I had your optimism... but truth is we were p1sh against Hibs , lost 3 goals, p1sh against St Mirren, lost 3 goals, p1sh against Kilmarnock lost 2 goals, utterly rank against Dundee Utd and lost 5 goals (should have been 8 or 9). Truth be told we have been performing poorly for large parts of every game over the last 5 / 6 weeks. I can't see how suddenly that defence will become competent.

SM has a huge job on his hands to make us even remotely solid at the back for next season. Thank fpuck we've had Sutton or we would be play off candidates.

Of the last 6 teams relegated only 2 have conceded more goals than we have this season. That stat should be really alarming SM. Christ even Maurice Malpas's Motherwell team only conceded two more goals over the season than we have so far. I'm confident we will burst both
