If nothing else, the fact that most politicians are polarising would point to a lack of judgement, especially when in the process of applying for new positions. I’d say the same if he’d gone round to Jeremy Corbyn’s for tea. Should it discount him from being appointed? No. Should it be mentioned within the bounds of that consideration? I don’t honestly see why it shouldn’t. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t honestly see why it shouldn’t. Agree. There's politicians and there's politicians. I'm happy to sit down with you and argue the toss about social housing policies or banking regulation and still have a pint and be friendly. There are some issues, however, where there isn't much room for nuance. I wouldn't, for example, want us to hire a racist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoshi-1991 Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Feel like its the lazy move. Granted 2 wins and playing better but the same happened when Hammell stepped in then the players just fell off. Doesn't mean it won't work but I feel very unenthused by it and feels like a cheap risk. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkyred Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 I’m in two minds if it is Kettlewell. Yesterday was head and shoulders above the performances under Hammell but it is only two games with a new manager bounce, we had the same with Hammell.

Big Wispy Flossy Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Like others, I wouldn’t be averse to Kettlewell until the end of the season. Any offer beyond then would be difficult to justify. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its not Kettlewell, which of the other 2 do you prefer? Personally, Im not enthused by either, so Id give it to Kettlewell, but only until the end of the season. If he is able to maintain the run and keeps us up he gets it for longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair dues but the board can't win here....if they don't give it to sk now, they're would be an outcry Personally I am happy for him to get it to the end of the season, he can't do much more....he's maybe not the fashionable name but hes done above and beyond He is benefitting from the players hammels brought in , whether hammel could've got the same performances , well never know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went with Alexander and Killie went with Wright the season they got relegated and we stayed up. We made the right chose there. So hopefully will do again.

Hear, Hear! Opposing someone from joining our football club because of their political leanings, views or associations is very Celtic/Green Brigade type behaviour. Personally I couldn’t care less if we appointed the illegitimate love child of Ian Paisley and Margaret Thatcher, if he came in and did a good job for us then that’s all that matters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
