If we could defend any better than a pub team we'd be in the top 6. 4th highest scorers worst against record tells us all we need to know. That said the defence may not be quite as poor if we didn't have an utterly abysmal midfield. I sincerely hope any transfer activity we have in January doesn't focus solely on the defence or forward line. We need hard tackling midfielders who can win the ball and unsurprisingly someone who can pass the ball 20 feet and find one of our players when under no pressure. We rarely win the second ball and are pretty powder puff in the tackle.

Exactly I've never been so close to turning my back on Motherwell than when that useless wee fanny was our manager. Fuck me still have nightmares about him signing his brother.
-
Thank fuck he was pish .
-
Jesus Christ probably one of the worst managers we've ever had. Had more money that any Motherwell manager in history and we were shite under him.
-
I totally get the "sack him" arguement, 4 points from 36 is sackable for 99% of clubs, however the costs and the fact the new manager inherits the same shite Kettlewell is struggling with makes the benefits of sacking him rather obscure to me.
-
We should but I'm worried based on what he's signed so far.
-
Hope so 😁😁

I cant believe some of the comments some of our fans make about Turnbull. He was under no obligation to sign a contract extension . He knew he'd be leaving but signed on to ensure the club that looked after him were taken care off. We therefore got good money for him. Lennon Miller is the same he knows he won't be with us for long but extended his contract which again will give the club a chance to get some payback for for that investment. I will never give guys like that a hard time. There are so many badge kissing fuckers who take the club for a ride. I wouldn't piss on Tom Boyd, Chris Cadden or Declan Gallagher if they were on Fire. Those cunts actively did all they could to either bad mouth the club or ensure we got fuck all.

Have no confidence at all about Saturday. It would be so typical of Motherwell to get a point at Parkhead and then make a rip roaring cunt of it against Dundee. We have all seen the script a million times. 2-1 Dundee.

McLeish was an absolute fanny, one of the biggest managerial mistake we we ever made. £1.75 million pissed away on absolute shite. I still shudder at the mention of that utter knob end Shaun McSkimming £350,000, Killie must have thought theyd won the lottery.

I lived through the relegation yo-yo years. I've always said going to watch football in the lower divisions is not as traumatic as some fans , who've known nothing else but top division football, think. Matchday experience is exactly the same emotions , same highs, same lows. You really weren't aware of the different standard. You went to most games expecting to win. If we were unfortunate enough to be relegated Id still go to the football is just as enjoyable. That said any Motherwell fan saying relegation would be a good reset process is utterly delusional. Once you are out the top division you run a risk of staying there if you don't get back up in one season. The cycle then kicks in, lower budget, poorer players, less appealing for players to sign. Being a fan owned club with a piss poor support we'd almost certainly look at part time football with 3/4 seasons . We then become exactly like Dunfermline, Falkirk, Partick Thistle - clubs of a similar size who cannot get out the lower divisions. Relegation is not good for the club in any way shape or form.

I was indeed. Glad someone got it.

I guess the concept of humour is lost on you.

As Watt and Moult have proved if the money's right it doesn't matter where they play. Especially a guy who is 32.
-
Apparently we made a bid to get KVV .We offered money and Ollie Shaw. It was rejected Gronigen wanted Money and a Lucky Bag.
-
It wont be us as there would be a fee and hed want bigger wages than we can afford.
-
I think they had Dundee Utd for Europe last year ..😂😂
-
We can only hope they don't get a new manager bounce which will add to our woes.
-
Aberdeen are shite and they weren't that good against us despite their fans thinking they were outstanding. Puts our performance / result against them in perspective.
-
Surprised there not a bandwagon for Moult as manager🤣🤣 Kiss the badge once and your a lifetime in the frame for every job at Motherwell with some fans.😉
-
I take onboard all you say however my biggest fear on this is we are copying Dundee Utd route map to the Championship. Dundee Utd sacked manager after manager when the reality was the players were shite and that's us to a tee. We replace Kettlewell at further cost. New man needs funds to improve the shite he inherits. Sadly we don't have the funds for it. It's no surprise we don't have a CEO yet... We basically can't afford one or what we are offering is so horrendously bad that no bugger wants it. The fan ownership model for a club with such a piss poor support will eventually end up in the Championship especially when we've wasted so much money on completely inept managers.
-
I reckon he's got the four games after the Celtic match if we don't win at least two of them I think the clubs hand will be forced. It's a result driven business and he knows that too. Dundee Home, Ross County Away, St Johnstone Home , St Mirren Away.
-
Remember folk clamouring for the board to extend his contract 7/8 weeks ago. I don't necessarily think sacking him is the answer. However in any other situation , after Celtic next, 2 points from 30 would see any manager sacked.
-
Hearts would need to be seriously bad for us to beat them. The standard of our play is frankly in the main awful. Especially defensively we have gift goals in nearly every one of our defenders and goal keeper. Our set pieces are abysmal. I have a feeling the best we will get is a draw again.

St Johnstone v Motherwell 07/11/2023
FirParkCornerExile replied to SteelmaninOZ's topic in Club Chat
Seriously ??? Although a slight hit on his arm it took enough of it to settle the ball perfectly for his ultimate finish and goal, had his arm not interfered with the flight of the ball it wouldnt have dropped perfectly for him to hit. I'm not defending the rule but I'm astonished that people cant see the trajectory of the ball was changed even slightly but was enough to set it up perfectly for his goal.
