Agree with a lot of that. Our best performance in some while if not in the whole season. So much more pace and the flicks and lay offs that peppered the forward moves were at times pretty breathtaking. Motherwell were generally in anti football mode + elbows+ arms across+ Niggly trips and jumping into players but were totally blown away. Only downer was the failure to keep a clean sheet.
Whilst Armstrong was good when on I thought mom was Dow. He did not give that back 4 a minutes peace and his physicality against them was brilliant. Totally deserved his goal. I thought Dillon did well overall and the last thing Motherwell would have wanted to see after an hour would be Gauld nipping and running at them I can see that team and style being the cup final set up.

You shouldn't really be putting these up here Tom. I know for one that Arabzone specifically requested that these not be shared and two, the sight of Armstrong running like that will result in some messy jizz blaw back on my keyboard once Whaasa sees it.

You guys suck at predicting!

The last couple of performances before this one were far from impressing, so it's great to see us put in a top drawer performance. Having seen the clips the score didn't seem to flatter us and could have been bigger.

Dow is a player that has stepped up well this season, but I've always been of the opinion he is a bit shorter of quality than the alternatives we have. After that though, he's got to have played his way into contention for a starting position in the final. I'd also say Ciftci's last couple of perfomances were well below par, so it's good to see him giving Motherwell a torrid time of it.

Anything but a win and we could have kissed goodbye to our chances of finishing top 3 and securing a place in Europe before the final. That brings us to within 4 points and with a very winnable next game, that gives us a great chance of closing the gap further.

Go and predict another dour game now, I dare ya! :hit:
