I didn't say you did.

Except we got a point and moved up a place in the table. Like. Apparently everything has been the fault of SOD. SOD didn't start tonight and folk on twitter were cheering. I'll take any point right now

You just don't like Kettlewell. And that's completely ok.

Absolutely this. We are 7th. Onwards and upwards. Some people had us written off before the game and when we get a point it's still not good enough

There is no way anyone can compare Liam Kelly to Stevie Woods. And honestly. Everyone seems to be getting a free pass apart from Kelly.

We are 7th and yes its gutting but Aberdeen are a decent side. I'll take that.

Kelly isn't the only person at fault here. Clearly our defence is

I'm sure they are being coached.

He played very well when we drew 1-1 with Celtic in November. I agree he's got his faults and his weak points but I don't think he's as bad as some people are suggesting. I think it's been obvious when he's lost confidence. Not just him either. I might regret typing this given that we have a game tonight.

Do you get off on mocking other peoples points of view?

It's ok.

Yeah it was. It was just when someone else also indicated that they knew who would take over if Kettlewell went - I didn't have a clue.

Apologies.

I have zero idea what Aston gets paid and not once have I alluded to his wages on this platform. A name search of my posts should evidence that

Thank you X. Someone posted it but it absolutely was not me. all I ever said was that I thought Kelly was our highest paid player. That was it. And that wasn't from a list

I did not post a list of players wages. I spoke about Kelly and Kelly only and said I thought he was our highest paid player. The poster who posted a list of players wages absolutely was not me. Sorry. But you've got the wrong person. I dont have access to any lists. You've got this wrong. Completely absurd. Check your facts before you start calling me out on this because someone did it. But it wasn't me ! I got deservedly rinsed for doing something another poster did? No fucking bother. How the actual fuck do I have access to a list of Motherwell players salaries. . I don't.

My point was that some people on here apparently know the person who would take over from Kettlewell if he were sacked and someone on here said everyone knows who it is. I dont know who they are I honestly cannot be bothered anymore. I feel like any time i post anything someone is ready to call me out on it and I might as well smash my head into a bin a hundred times over. It's miserable on here if you back Kettlewell. Horrible. And that's not me calling you out on your post. Its just an observation. Its miserable. For example someone saying Motherwell has only one good player. Lennon Miller is the only good player we have. Seriously? Honestly. This forum is just an anti Stuart Kettlewell forum just now and Ive had it. Stick your head above the parapet and you get shot down by some posters. Snidely too. And I'm not talking about you but I am sick of it. It is miserable. It's the get Kettlewell binned or get lost according to some posters

Well I got rinsed on here for suggesting that Kelly was one of our highest paid players.

I think Kelly for all his faults has done a decent job over the piece for us. More than decent

I think keepers are the last players to get dropped when their form drops. Carson didn't get dropped by Dundee after they lost a few games on the bounce. And to be honest there are other players I think Kettlewell could also have dropped but he hasn't. His call clearly

It's my opinion. My opinion that I have a right to in my view. The same way you have yours. I personally think that the people on here who support Kettlewell get their posts automatically written off. This isn't a dig at you. That's just how I feel right now. Not an argument. I actually said a few days ago on here I thought that Kelly should be rested for his own sake. But it's Kettlewells call. I also don't think the fact that Kelly is first pick necessarily means there's anything wrong with the relationship he has with Aston.

With you on that one.

That's reality. I remember being at the game when Carson got injured and then Gillespie got his chance. Pretty sure goalies know that when they sign that it can be hard to displace the main keeper. Plenty of clubs have goalies sitting on the bench. Not just Motherwell. You could also argue that it's not just Kelly underperforming just now given that we aren't bottom of the table. He's not fucked. If Kelly gets injured Aston will take his chance. What would happen if Aston went in goals and started letting goals in? Of course there's an argument for starting him but how many teams in the SPL put on their second choice keeper when their main keeper dips in form? Not many I suspect.

I completely agree. I actually don't think the squad is that bad. But it's clear that confidence has dipped. It's been visible since the games in September we took nothing from. I'm far from Liam Kelly's biggest fan but it's clear he's lost confidence. The midfield lost confidence as well towards the end of last year I think both Slattery and Spittal started really strongly and then dipped - I'm a huge fan of both players. Then we lost Mika. I dont think the revolving door of managers would help our club in the slightest at the minute. Apparently there's someone that some other posters would want to see at the club - I have no idea who that is but who is to say they would get better results than Kettlewell

Im not sure we were punching above our weight to be honest. I do agree with the sentiment that there's no point in breaking the bank to end up a couple of places higher in the SPL but surely we should be aiming for higher than just above relegation. I think it's a self belief thing as much as anything else. When Alexander took over in the beginning you could see the difference in confidence. Same with Kettlewell - we just seem to hit these slumps in form and lose confidence- and it's been like that for as long as I've been watching bar a few seasons. Personally. I just want a season where I'm not sitting watching away games on twitter watching from behind my hands - because my nerves can't stand it. I completely agree that it's an unequal league and I think that sometimes gets forgotten. We are supposed to be able to compete with teams like Celtic on our budget - and that isn't me saying we should just turn up and roll over either.
