My laddie is desperate to get Zander to sign his goalie top and thinking this is the best chance. With it being a 12 KO is it usually an hour and a half before kick off they get in? Kids usually get stuff signed after the games, not sure how easy it is to do that through there though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Quaresma Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 15 hours ago, BackOfTheNet said: Decades of supporting this club and seeing we’re up against a team in need of a win, we’re away from home, they’ve just suffered an embarrassing cup defeat and sacked their manager so looking for the cliched ‘response’ tells me this will be a loss or a draw for us. Which my head thinks is ridiculous, but past experiences find completely understandable. They beat the liedoons 2 - 1 tonight; that's their honeymoon bounce over and now they're going to get pumped at the weekend and they know they are ☺ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosanostra Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 This'll be tough. Motherwell played really well against us last time at their place in the 0-3 game. We definitely had a bit of luck that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hisnameis Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Agree with the above. Scoreline flattered us last time there. Think we need to be a bit more physical in midfield. If we win that battle then the quality we have in other areas should earn a win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasAndy Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 It's amazing how often a team gets a result after the Manager has been emptied. Hopefully Well have had their bounce last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaShango Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Hopefully they have had their bounce. Looking at the highlights their pitch looks in decent nick. If we play well then I have no doubt we win the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we play well then I have no doubt we win the match. Agreed. Need to be at it and win the midfield, when football breaks put, we'll win. Livingston play Rangers this weekend. They then have Aberdeen away, then Livi and H8bs play each other. If we win against Well then StJ in that time, we may well have extended gap and they'll have lost their game in hand. We then play Celtic but at same time Hibs play Rangers. We've got a tough run of fixtures coming up from Celtic onwards so this game and next are huge to set up (even more) cushion.

Bob Loblaw Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 I saw this quote from Robbie when talking about the squad, “It's just the longer-term ones like Beni Baningime, Craig Halkett, Liam Boyce, Craig Gordon and Gary Mackay-Steven – all the boys who are out for the season." Interesting that he's included Boyce and Beni as out for the season when both were back running, unless he's just lumped all the longer term ones together and is trying to temper expectation.

Perhaps, the case, or a judgement call we have enough to cope this season and will get them back strong. On Motherwell, last time we played there, we had come back from Lithuania in midst of an injury crisis. 9 days rest and more to choose from, they had the midweek game this time, we apply ourselves properly we will make chances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Idle Talk Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Looks like Motherwell got the 'new manager bounce' last night. Might make Sunday's match a wee bit trickier than it would have been if Stevie Hammell had still been there. Still a match we should be looking to win though.

Just football baddies. Oor own Naisy a good case of that. Massively decent guy by all accounts. Horrible little shit when a football comes out! Scott Brown, ive met a couple of times, nice lad. Kenny Miller i like too. HATED Martin Oneil,met him, was disgusted by how much i liked him!! Jim Goodwin seems a decent bloke. I kinda learnt to separate football hate from personal hate, though sometimes you need both like with Lennon (been told hes sound but na not having it,hes maybe capable of being ok for short bursts or something). The flip side is there are a lot of "nice guys" who are almost definite bellends. Holloway ive always had a sneaky is a tit. Lineker probably in there. Levein, while not nice guy persona as such, does play the humour card too. Hundreds and hundreds of OF "legends" who are so up their own arse too. Durrant springs to mind Then you just have obvious top guys like Robbo!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunny Munro Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Holloways time at Grimsby is an interesting read. Never forget he was all agreed to be Hearts manager before the league blocked it as he was missing some badges. We got Csaba and he went to Blackpool and took the to the EPL. 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
