Instead, we find that we have a new month ahead and (with a bit of luck) it could turn out to a happy February. The games for the next few weeks are:-
Cup 03 Feb Morton (h)
SPL 10 Feb
SPL 17 Feb
SPL 20 Feb St Mirren (a)
Cup 24 Feb Quarter Final ??
Now, let's not get carried away.
But there is a chance, yes - a real chance, that we could enter March six or more points better off in the league and safe from the relegation struggle. We should also have a cup quarter final behind us and with a friendly draw there could be another jolly to Hampden on the cards.
We all know the unpredictability which Motherwell can deliver and only the foolhardy would be at the bookies asking for odds of us having a clean sweep in February but we can dream can't we?
