We had John Boyle. Look how that turned out! Happy to be a fan owned club and compete within our means.

Yes. Maybe a bad choice of words on my part trying to get my point across. Being Academy Director would undoubtedly bring experience of many transferrable skills. Coaching players being just one of them.

I think the positive thing for most supporters is that he has identified all the things the fans have been shouting about for some time and is showing an appetite to fix them. That might not make him manager of the year, but it shows he isnt just some rookie without a clue. He has been involved in professional football for over 20 years, and been a youth team coach for the last 4, so he does have some experience behind him. Its a bit like the argument with players. Do we sign an experienced journeyman manager who is never gonna be better than average, or do we go with a young inexperienced one whose potential is far greater but somewhat of a risk?

Wow! Have 2 sets of supporters ever gone into a game with such low expectations? I suppose the only positive from a Motherwell perspective is that we ditched the manager and somehow managed to smuggle 3 points out of Paisley last week. I like the fact that this fixture has never finished 0-0 at Fir Park. So for that reason Im gonna predict 0-0!

If I was a St Mirren fan, Id get my mortgage on you to win on Sunday. A Motherwell team playing as bad as we currently are, with a disconnect between the manager players and fans as bad as it has been in years, coming up against an ex manager and half a dozen ex players? Ive seen that movie too!

I take your point to an extent. However, its not reactionary from most Motherwell fans. Its the culmination of watching 18 months of eye bleedingly bad football and 7 months of rank rotten results. These 2 games were just the straw that broke the camels back.

Making the assumption that there is absolutely no chance that GA changes away from 4-3-3, Id be going with.... Kelly Mugabi Sol Ojala Lamie Shaw Slattery O'Hara Woolery KVV Efford/Roberts Id love to see Tierney in as I think he would take passes from Slattery and be a good foil for KVV linking the midfield and frontline, but he doesnt fit a 4-3-3 and I dont see GA changing it. Need a big performance from the manager and all the players or this is going to be another dreary shitfest with us losing by the odd goal.

1. Celtic 2. Rangers 3. Hearts 4. Motherwell 5. Aberdeen 6. Dundee United 7. Hibs 8. St Mirren 9. Livingston 10. St Johnstone 11. Ross County 12. Dundee

Ever the optomist! They just go quiet until the next crisis arrives!

What a guy!

I think the fans have a defeatest attitude because of personal experience. When you fail to beat certain teams repeatedly, it tends to effect your expextations. I dont recall being so defeatest when I was younger, but we occasionally bloodied a few noses back in those days. It starts with the team. If we can see a bit of attitude and a decent performance on Saturday, attitudes can change.

Its either a fantastic troll, or a delicious irony. Either way it's magnificent!
