Motherwell (H) - 17/10

[Bud the Baker 8,606]

Right now we've got the first portion of that LC malarky out of the way it's back to league business against fellow strugglers Motherwell.

Will we have any new arrivals for the game?

Remember 77 Willie Pettigrew & all that! 

 

[faraway saint 30,081]

We should be looking to beat Motherwell who are inconsistent, had a good result up at Aberdeen although Aberdeen are not exactly Bayern Munich but got pumped by a poor Israeli side in the Europa League.

The last thing we need is another defeat, that would take us to..........................fingers, check, yip, 7 league losses on the bounce. 

Prediction, toss of a coin IMO, probably a draw if I had to stick money on it.

I can't see where another premier win will come from. I've lost all faith in this management team. I hope I'm on here after this game eating humble pie after a rousing win but, I doubt it.

0-2 Motherwell.

[Fricky-Troll 277]

Saints to win 2-1

[shull 30,865]

Two in a Row to become Three in a Row, I believe and I hope.

St Mirren 3 Motherwell 0

I'm with you. The team still lacks balance after 10 games , which is baffling  .Apart from McPherson (if selected) there is no energy in midfield , and the attack is punchless. Durmus looks disinterested , and McAllister is nowhere near his best. Poor displays v M'well and Accies,  and Jimbo could be in bother !

Badly in need of Flynn back in team.

Whilst I completely agree with your statement and think Flynn is a really solid, consistent performer, we’re going to need a helluva lot more than him coming back to sort this mess out.

Flynn is no saviour and has been out for 8 month his impact wont change much I wouldn't think

Reference to midfield.

I wouldn’t blame him looking disinterested.

He ran the QoS full back ragged on Saturday and crossed in ball after ball - all to be squandered.  He was on a good game, I thought... but was hooked, second half.

injury, I believe.

No chance, last two games been played off park by lower league opposition and by some misguided fortune or luck got results. No way i can see us betting Well snd expect a 3-0 drubbing..

He's been a shadow of the player we saw last season. He scored some really vital goals by coming inside and feeding off knock-downs or through balls . He looks as if he's going through the motions now !

[DougJamie 6,818]

Hopefully with 6 goals in last two games , plus QP to come, the team will know the feeling off actually scoring...………… we sit back and admire we will get stuffed but I would like to see us on front foot.....

This season of all seasons we cannot go down

We most certainly weren't played off the park v QotS but I agree with your sentiments re Motherwell.

We were lucky not to be 3 or 4 down at one point...first half we were lucky to get into their box on a few occasions...ill say it again, Goodwin imo cannot motivate the players and tactically has not a clue.

And I don't disagree with your conclusion about Goodwin but I firmly believe the only reason the team were slow to take control was the state of the pitch. QotS had  better chances but St. Mirren had far and away the bulk of the game ergo, I believe, were NOT played off the park.

Agreed. We definitely were not played off the park by QOS.

St Mirren 2/1, Motherwell 5/4 with the draw (likely IMO) 12/5

So, we're not favourites at home to a team that's won 2 league games from 9.

So what about the Thistle game?

The game we won 4-1?

FFS gie it up, most people realise we're in a bit of a mess but you're just ripping the arse out of it.
