Football: Motherwell boss Jim expecting big reaction
JIM GANNON may look for reinforcements in January after his young Motherwell team struggled in their second match in four days against St Mirren.
Well crashed out of the Co-operative Insurance Cup with a 3-0 defeat in Paisley on Tuesday, four days after fighting back for a 3-3 draw in the SPL.
Gannon feels they lacked the energy required to repeat their comeback – but he does expect a rejuvenated display tomorrow against Hearts.
"We had several players who were a little bit jaded," Gannon said. "You get that with young players who are not able to maintain a really strong performance from Saturday to Tuesday.
"The lads will learn from that experience but I expect them to respond well."
