We going international!
Remember what we said in the pre match build up to Dundee United? Games are like buses, sometimes you get loads turning up. Well, this is about the time the bus is delayed, and the next ones had to stop and kick you off because a tyres blown.
The international break. Ever fabled. Ever hated. Ever loathed. But, this is perhaps a time to look at how our stars are doing out with the club. And maybe, just maybe, us Scots can dream again.

Corner Taken Quickly... || Aberdeen 1-1 Motherwell
For the third time this season, and what felt like the eighth, we played Aberdeen. Away from home again, The Well were looking to maintain their 100% record over the Dandy Dons after a frustrating and disappointing outing at Hampden. Aberdeen were looking to build on a decent away win at Killie and a brilliant draw in Cyprus. Here's how we saw it: The Teams Aberdeen lined up in a very similar set-up to how they appeared against Killie. The slightly more open and attacking 3-

The match after the match before || Aberdeen vs Motherwell
Looking Ahead A deflating feeling writing this after the result at Hampden. I'm sure I'm not the only one in the immediate aftermath who was absolutely spewing at full time (link to post match St Mirren). However, perhaps there is a need to take this in context. A few months with Askou at the helm has seen us revamp our playing style completely, integrate mass new signings into the squad, and seen us go to a cup semi-final. The Buddies, with Stephen Robinson have been there,

A night under the lights || Motherwell vs Dundee United preview
Sometimes, matchdays are like buses. You sit through international breaks, begging for the club game to come back. And it does; one a week, leaving you sat, wanting just a little more. Then weeks like this week pop up, with thin quick succession. I just don’t think the Fir Park faithful imagined how important these three games would be. Dundee United: form, tactics, head-to-head This one, the second of a crucial three, and an equally important one. Following a win on our

Just In Time || Livingston 1 - 2 Motherwell
When thinking over the game that just unfolded before our eyes, I cannot help but think of that old, slightly pixelated meme of Rodney from Only Fools and Horses flying the birdie. This was far from a simple smash-and-grab from the Well though. It was a story of failure and redemption within 90 minutes. A game of nearly almosts that, thankfully, concluded in an injury time of jubilation, despair, and jubilation once again. Motherwell came flying out the traps, looking like a
