Ball hitcyhe back of yhevnet a flash. Some stand out performances today. Gogic as usual. But got to say Richard was outstanding. Collum as usual was totally useless.

faraway saint Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 Today's games look like going with form. The Hibs v Raith game could be tight IMO. Roll on the draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dare Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 Our pressing off the ball yesterday was best we’ve been all season - never gave Well players any time on the ball. There were a few slack passes from us and we did drop off a bit in the second half however we won almost every 50/50 and second ball. Richard Taylor and Gogic were solid at the back and Hemming is getting better every week. We’ve not had a keeper willing to come off his line and take a cross ball for a long time and that save second half was top drawer. You can see that the players are all fighting for each other and we now have competition for places which can only be good. Robbo is doing a fantastic job and bring on the draw today for the last 8.

If we can sell out the home end regularly, then we should be looking at that. Spend on the team first and hopefully the need for more seats will increase with winning games( and cups) . To seriously and regularly compete at the next level we would need the income that a 14000 seater stadium and 10000 season ticket sales would bring as well as better development of the non-footballing facilities. .

No more than us and for substantially less league 1 time. Much as i enjoyed the covid relegation, Hearts would have most likely stayed up if they had finished the 2019-20 season. Given the current financial positions, I think we have eventually established a pecking order in the SPFL that will take a big effort to disrupt.

beyond our ken Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 I thought we looked really comfortable for as long as we pressed and kept a relatively high line. It was a bit panicky sometimes when 'well got through though. They were never in danger of converting a chance and we should have got at least one more goal. We lacked the variety of passing that we get when O'Hara plays, which is a worry. We are very much a defensive midfield that presses and looks for a break without him as opposed to a more attacking mindset when he is on the pitch Mandron does several things well, We added a dimension when Olusanya came on, where Mandron will shield the ball by trying to stand strong Oli seems to use far more energy that is far more liable to lead to a break. He is much more of a defender's nightmare. Ayunga is supposedly back in a few weeks and with an international break coming up we will maybe come back with a bounce.

You really will have to try harder. Now, back to my original question. What do you get out of constantly trolling and feeling the need to belittle others. It should be a simple enough question that most people should be able to answer. I'm not sure you'll be able to answer it though. Maybe it's a bit advanced for you. I blame your parents for taking you away on holiday when you should be in school. Edited August 21, 2023 by BigYardsAndBasher An unnecessary "is".

Saint@Johnstone Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Good result and a great goal from Saints. Very impressed by the Motherwell support, they got behind their team all throughout. We look a decent team these days. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor, Boyd-Munce, Hemming, Gogic - to name but a few - all had a great game. With the window open for 11 days, can we hang on to our players, though? Particularly Strain, Baccus and O'Hara?

Thought he was the only player not to receive pass marks on Sat. Consistently caught in possession and seems to think he is a far better player than he is. He had an off day. We all have them. I think he has proved that he has ability during his time at the World Cup; and he has been very good for us in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Brilliant I let the family of the little girl know about the fun day and told the mum my own two kids would be there to help make her wee girl feel welcome pity they cancelled on the risk of high winds. Glad they still had a good day despite the result for their team. Sent from my T610K using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
