Games coming thick and fast so not much time to dwell on things. Conditions won’t be much better down there, especially on a traditionally shit pitch. Given the run of games ahead of us, we really need to pick something up here to try and have some hope of confidence. Any ideas of how JT could mix things up? Their form is a bit all over the shop, and they even managed to lose to hearts so there is some hope. Would rely on our strike force actually turning up.
 

out - shite kick off time

hoping for some of this mythical summer to appear

3-0, no dons scorer.

Ticket for sale 🙄

Is there a cash gate for this?

For refunds 🤔

To answer my own question no cash gate for the away end on Sunday. Was going to be last minute before I knew I could make this but decision made for me now. Seems odd that clubs are making it difficult for folk to attend games. Not as there is any chance of this selling out. 

3 points on my birthday too much to ask?

Will end up watching I'm sure but can't see where a win is going to come from in the next few league games.

Guess it’s a cost thing. I presume they would have done the sums to see how many people actually turn up but you’d have thought someone on min wage would be easily offset?

Clubs don't like anonymous sales these days either,  they want a name attached to every ticket sold.

Praying for Tam Cowan to be proven right  with his "any team needing a result always seems to get one against Motherwell" schtick. 

Weather not in looking great for tomorrow. Wonder if there is a chance of this being called off. Rubi, Nilsen and Palaversa all back from suspension which is a plus but countered with Mitov being out and potentially Sokler. Genuinely no idea how we will line up or what score will be if it’s on.

Mine as well, don’t ask for anything really on birthdays any more, but a win followed by a few strong signings would be appreciated!!

Which contradicts what ticket office told me on Friday. Oh well. 

Palaversa alongside Shinnie and Nielsen in midfield. Probably something that should have been tried weeks ago. After failing miserably on his favoured foot, MacDonald is once again being tried on his weak side. 

It's shinnie playing in the hole?

Here we go again ffs. We’ve not been bad at all but we’ve gifted a few chances and now get punished.

1-0 down and ruby off for ridiculous reaction and head butt. Now 2.

Game over. Ffs Macdonald, they’ve gone after him all game cos they know he’s pish.

I'd settle for somebody smashing Tony watt and accepting defeat at this point.

Who gives a fuck about watt, we’re our own problem and we need goals points and wins. Watt fires people up but you don’t get sucked in, much like brown did for Celtic, maybe even shinnie for us. Part of the game and he did his job, ruby fucked us.

central defense is costing us every single game.

Aye. That wasn't a red, and should have been overturned. Rubi stood up when Watt was bent over him. Nobody headbutts with the top of their head on the underside of someone's chin, it's just poor technique.

Anyway, I turned it on at 30 minutes and we've only been gash from that point. Not even sure where Nisbet is playing, Nielsen given the ball away several times and MacDonald and MacKenzie beaten by simple balls over the top. 

The arse has well and truly fallen out of this team.   It's bewildering.

I’d say our only hope is the two Motherwell boys in the middle of the park on yellow, lose one, 10v10 and a goal and game on. Realistically though, I say it’s a 3 or 4-0 game.

I thought it was a red, he does move his head towards watt from what I saw. I’d assume var confirmed that.

Not sure Rubi even touches Watt with his head but still stupid to react. McDonald on left side has been a joke again. Assume Molloy must be injured as not even on the bench. Have to say Palaversa has been poor again and there is no way we should be taking on option him. Nilsen was fine until the Jinx Rico turned on and been shit since or maybe ran out of steam about then. Going to be long 2nd half.
