Doesn't look like radio Scotland have commentary of the game. Do mfr 2 still cover the games? Can't find anything on their site at all

Half time 2-0 down great just bloody great -_-

Watkins injured, tried to play on but couldn't, Williams is playing rubbish, Warren has been really shaky at the back. Not sure if it's because of Hughes 'play from the back' tactic

Any positives at all other than we are not three down at half time?

Not impressed. Another immense effort required like the Aberdeen game just to restore pride. County seem up for the win, ICT don't. Hopefully a much inspired team in the second half. If county add another and we don't score, I see dark times ahead. Thankfully we have shown we can turn the second half around in the past

either way we shouldn't be losing to a team that's been struggling at the bottom of the spfl

Motherwell 2 up - Vigurs. Utd 1-0 up. Scores not going our way. We need to get something out of this game.

I agree. If Hearts were not deducted points County would be bottom of the league. I suppose they have nothing to lose so are going for it. Not impressed with our lack of attacking options recently.

I'd counted on us being 2nd as it was only Ross County we had the game in hand with.  Easy 3 points.  This is a disaster.

We've been pretty awful going forward for weeks now - apart from half an hour against Hearts and the second half against Aberdeen, we've created almost nothing. I can forgive the defenders the odd lapse, as they have been fantastic this season, but unless something radically changes in our attacking play in the very near future, then it could be a bottom six finish after all.  

if we finish in the bottom six I would be very disgusted and thinking of a new manager and destroyed the hard work butcher did.

Can't quite believe this. How on earth did this happen???

The only thing thats unexpected about this, is the speed at which he has ruined this team, it's quite exceptional how quickly he's managed it really.

Without wanting to sound like I'm scaremongering, it could happen quite easily. We're 8 ahead of St Johnstone in 6th and 9 ahead of Hibs in 9th (albeit with a game in hand over both),  but there are over 50 points still to play for, and Hibs look like they are going to be a much-improved team. If we can't create chances then we will really struggle to pick up points.   

just how negative can people get !!!

Support the team don't decry it

Draper sent off.

Draper red card

Other than the early enforced sub we've made no further changes, Yogi out of ideas already?

I am a happy clapper, bughtmaster, but even I am feeling a bit sick over this.

And now we're a man down, great.

I'm rarely very negative about the team - I'm just trying to open up a bit of debate about why the creativity going forward seems to have evaporated to such an extent. I was at all the games in December apart from the Celtic game, which I watched on TV, and the lack of chances is genuinely worrying. Might just be a bad spell - we were equally bad against Aberdeen & St Johnstone under Terry Butcher - but given the run of January fixtures we have coming up, it's something that Hughes will have to try to address quickly, presumably by making changes to the team, which has gone unchanged in the past three matches.    

Yes understandable but blame Butcher for unsettling a winning team don't lay the blame on Huges

Don't decry the decriers. You say something positive about this game. I think you may struggle.

Anyway at least Motherwell who we play next are on a bad run. Not, Gulp.

Agree with that.  We all support the team, but it's legitimate to ask why we were doing so much better without a manager, why subs are not used properly, why we don't change a 1-up front system that hasn't worked recently, why we don't try and change central midfield,  etc.

Wonder who we'll have in the holding midfield roles on Saturday vs Motherwell with Foran still out and Draper now suspended...

On the subject of which, his hand will obviously be forced now, although not necessarily in the positions that he would have chosen to do so - Draper will be out for Motherwell, and apparently Warren will be too, according to someone on Twitter.
