3 0 mothwell. We are a team in free fall.

[pozbaird]

This being St Mirren, and me expecting nothing than another home scunner, we'll probably win this 1-0 with a last-minute Keith Lasley own goal.

I'd take it.

[Lanarkshire_Bud]

6-1

Bahoken x3

Goodwin

Newton

Reilly

[whydowebother]

Saints 2 - 2 Motherwell

Bad runs come to an end , just not always with a win

The fightback begins with this game.

100% behind the team & management as things will turn round.

[elvis]

3-1 Well

[Leicester Saint]

74-0 to Motherwell. 0-0 at half time, and 1-0 down with ten minutes to go. But then a collapse when DL decides to push Cornell up front, put Thompson at left back, Goodwin up front, and Tommy Craig at centre half.

[davidg]

International break couldn't come at a better time.

2 weeks to get things sorted and for the new players to settle in.

I'm pretty sure Danny will still be in the dug out for this game. Let's hope we can sort things out and pick up 3 points.

2-1 Saints.

I hope your right, certainly gives the club time to try to give the new guys a chance to settle in, they must be thinking WTF have they come to, doubt they'll be recommending any of their pals come to St Mirren if things don't get better.

We have a decent record against this lot so, fingers crossed, like Whydowebother says, a draw will do, although not for some.

[shull]

I don't want an International break, total waste of a weekend. Play them midweek.

Anyway, Lets get behind Danny & Tommy as hopefully they transform our team of heroes.

I look at some our central defence and midfield performances yesterday and can't find any cause for optimism. I thought Newton(in particular))and McGinn were overrun and Harkins was ineffective , while Goodwin was getting pulled all over the place showing why he's really not a central defender and should be the sitting midfielder. Worrying times , unless the management wake up to the glaring problems and bring in a couple of out-of-contract players !

[Kendo]

Sorry guys but I just don't see us get anything out this game. Our Manager failed to get a reaction from the team yesterday. There appears to be a lack of drive and confidence about the team. Our tactics are baffling and I get the sense we don't have any plans to go to a different option of digging in and winning ugly.

We had a really poor end to last season and instead of strengthening the squad in close season we have weakened it. Not sure where our next win is coming from?

Before we know it , a play-off place is going to be our best option and I'm sure , as it stands , any of the promotion candidates will be rubbing their hands at the prospect of a play-off v us !

[JJ McG]

Cant see anything other than a defeat, the manager doesn't play players in there correct positions and the players don't look interested or fit enough, we are f**ked unless there is big changes.

[TsuMirren]

My main worry is there's far too much time for Danny to watch more footie on tv, see more things he likes and then get even more lost\confused. Motherwell are always tough, we need to be on from the first whistle.

[Leicester Saint]

Motherwell fans will be licking their lips at the prospect of this one right now.

[Lex]

If Danny is still in charge i can't see how we don't lose the game. Worse teams than Motherwell have had no problem beating us this year, it's became abundantly clear that Danny does not have what it takes to turn this failing side around.

The question is how many more games are we going to lose before a change is made?

[gstretchuk]

12-9 to well

[Scook]

This will be my first game of the season, and if DL doesn't start with something like this then we wont have a chance of getting anything

Cornell

Caprice

2 of Goodwin, McGregor, McAusland

Grainger

Teale

Newton

McGowan

Mcginn/Mclean

Thommo

Harkins/Bahoken

I hope we get a 2-1 win, but at the moment I cant see it.

[alanb]

Why are we now playing them on the 12th ?.Hoping they don't turn up until Saturday ?

2 weeks to get it sorted Danny

They can lick away , until their team gets 'licked'

We will not lose this game.

[Spam_Valley]

Christ knows what the score will be but for a start i'll settle for a starting 11 with players played in the right positions.

That would please me greatly.

[linwood buddie]

Hopefully there will be different formations and line ups worked on during the international break , give the new and young players a go ,even if they need to arrange a couple of bounce games .We do have the players to challenge every position ,with maybe the exception of the goalie to make all the squad work harder .

That's what pre-season should've been used for.

That's not much of an ask !

It's so obvious from the stands , the players should speak up though as they must know they are being asked to play out with their own comfort zone.

If they are speaking up & management ain't listening there ls a bigger issue.

I'm sure on here we are all reasonably good at our own jobs , but ask me to wire your electrics and your taking a gamble ! It has to be the same asking players to do a different job.
