Scorers: HAMILTON: Mensing Paixao MOTHERWELL: Murphy, Jutkiewicz

BILLY REID: THERE are mixed emotions, to play so long with 10 men and put in that effort and endeavour and go ahead twice but get pegged back. Our goalkeeper has had a great game and I think the sending-off has certainly had an influence on the game.
Beuzelin was getting on the ball and trying to pick passes and it's only a matter of time before he does pick his pass.
We were fairly in control and that changes the game but we never sat back.
The character and effort of my team was second to none. For what the players put in, they probably deserved to win.
But it wasn't to be. Motherwell kept pushing. It was five against five at that end and three against three at the other.
It was a smashing game but I've got a player in there, Guillaume Beuzelin, who made his debut today and he's sitting there gutted. Let's just say, we didn't get too much today.

JOHN SUTTON: YOU have got to give credit to Hamilton, they battled away and scored two very good goals.
But we're disappointed we never got our noses in front and got the chance to kill the game.
We kept plugging away and scored two really good goals, especially Jamie Murphy's one.
There is good character in the team and when there is only a goal in it, you never feel you're out the game.
Although time was against us, we kept going and got the rewards.
Motherwell manager Jim Gannon, who was unhappy with some reports this week that speculated on players who would leave Fir Park in January, left New Douglas Park without speaking to the press.
