7 mins to kick off and it looks deserted. Where is everyone?

7 mins to kick off and it looks deserted. Where is everyone?

All at the Kirk at this time of day.

I was getting the ice chipped off and chilling the feckin vodka - interesting to see Morrison back in midfield which may mean a 4-4-2 or Foran on the left - and look at the yoof on the bench - what is the total age of that bench ?

What a feckin fine day but what a feckin dismal attendance.

Looks like Foran has started out wide left with Doran in a more roving role than usual. Morrison appears to have slotted in rite central a la Draper - so the selection has changed but the system remains intact.

what a bouncing atmosphere

We appear to have had a 15 minute remembrance silence !!! Only positive is that we are making chances but the final attempts have been simply woeful. Well are setting quite a pace though which augurs well if they have had a bug.

First effort of the game from them. Two mistakes by Meekings and a rather pathetic jump from Raven although Higdon was allowed to have a run at the header. This has been as dire a 20 minutes as I have endured all season - on a par with the Jam Tarts. And we are hit by a feckin second - another Meekings error.

wow josh meekings has had a shocking 4 minutes

What is going on eh? Back to the usual???

2-0 Well.

we need to push up and pass quicker

probs cant blame the players as playing in a morgue isnt going to be easy to get to grips with

A lesson on how to pass the ball for us today!

And they hit the feckin crossbar - and what type of feckin block was attempted by Warren. What feckin space are we giving them. As last week we are not pressuring at all, we are sitting back, our passing is dire and we are allowing them to totally dominate the middle and their defence has not been tested at all. They are also using width which we simply are not. They look dangerous every time they go forward. McKay is totally isolated. What the feck !!!

Nearly 0-3 reguero keeps it out

Lucky not to be 0-4, surely we cant wait until HT before making changes to either the tactics or the personnel?

Should have been three. You would have thought that we would not Have learned the lesson of double teaming Humphrey instead of leaving him 1:1 wih Shinnie. What about hooking Meekings and putting Foran back - and shoving on Roberts up front with McKay.. As I say should have been 4 !!! Raven at fault.

Motherwell seem to be coping with it fine!

What we need is a half time drug testing blitz - stimulant testing for them and feckin barbiturates for us.

Yep. We need a much better outlet up front - someone who will run at them. Pepper rather than Roberts, I think. The biggest problem looks like the continued absence of Draper, though - we're being completely overrun in midfield, and every time they get the ball wide to Humphrey it looks like they will score again. Really hope Draper is back for next week, and that we can at least compete. A few more performances like today's so far and we may soon be talking about the length of our winless run rather than our unbeaten run.

Can Just ask everyone on Sky - look at our body language - hunched shoulders, minimal movement, plodding around -and apparently we have not committed a foul yet. no feckin hunger and no desire,

That can only be described as absolutely feckin shocking.

Normal service resumed. HT thankfully
