  1. Kind of like Stuart McCall, Gannon and McGhee then. The more time passes and with the uncertainty regarding the Well Society and possible consortiums, the more I suspect we'll be going with Kenny Black until this uncertainty is resolved. Who would want the job right now with talk of takeovers? Job security in football management is poor at the best of times but with talk of the Society not making its target and foreign owners, you'd need to be a lunatic to take the Motherwell job right now...
  2. Has he expressed an interest as well? To be honest, none of the names that have been mentioned as favourites recently have inspired any real enthusiasm. Have to figure that whoever we end up with will have a fair bit to do to win over the fans. I reckon that Kenny Black will be in charge until the ownership issue is clarified anyway...
  3. Are we assuming that the new manager won't be named until the ownership is decided...
  4. Don't expect any decision on a new manager before that's decided then...
  5. The reaction to the potential appointment of Stark is very reminiscent of the reaction when we appointed McCall. In no way am I saying that he'd be my choice but we as fans have been known to be wrong before...
  6. Just realised that this thread was missing something so decided to address that failing. What's Luc Nijholt doing these days..?
  7. I genuinely don't mind if the new manager has managed us or managed in the SPL before. If he's the right man for the job, he's the right man for the job. Looking for several things -Ability to work with a tiny budget. -Track record of developing young players. -Eye for a player playing in the lower leagues in Scotland that can step up. -Ability to tighten up a defence I know, not asking for much...
  8. Good job we're no longer in the McCall era then... Seriously, they do seem to have our number at Fir Park. Our performance against St Johnstone was slightly improved but we'll need to lift it again in order to get anything from this game. I expect I similar lineup to the one we picked against St Johnstone as Stuart McCall did suggest that planning the team lineups for games was a collaborative task so would imagine Kenny Black will be thinking along similar lines...
  9. Have looked on McBookie and still can't see it. Even looked under manager specials...
  10. Can't find any online bookies offering odds? Anyone got a link...?
  11. I tend to agree with all of your assessments there. McLean isn't as out of the loop as some would believe and he would make us difficult to beat and get us fit. Those two things would be a start...
  12. Could live with Burley, my own choice would be Tommy McLean...
  13. Someone til the end of the season with the remit of keeping us up? I've made it clear who my choice would be...
  14. Better decision than signing Higdon, Nicky Law or Ojaama? Really? Sad that even after his resignation, you can't give him any credit for three incredible seasons...
  15. Comparison I'd make is putting down a dog. You knew it had to happen but you feel sad that it's come to this. Any manager who loses five games on the spin is lucky to keep his job. Like others, I have nothing but respect for the job he's done. But I feel it is the right time for a change...
  16. Any new manager still has the same problems with the squad we have...
  17. Here's the obligatory Josh Law appearance...
