Name the defender who he hasn’t played who would have made a difference.
 

We concede far more goals from corners when Bevis isn't playing.

It's a bad one but let's not all go into full meltdown again. Sooner this season over the better and a rebuild required yet again

Unless we get a new manager it won't make any difference.

The players Kettlewell has brought in are far worse than the players he inherited.

A minutes silence required for our fans traveling up there…. Hats off to them. Appalling game…. Absolutely awful, regardless of the sending off.

just end the season now please, I can’t see the games getting any better when we have so many players out of contract.

[wellfan]

A relegation play-off dogfight is incoming.

At different points of the season every defender has been played in different permutations and we’ve lost stupid goals from open play/corners/set pieces so I’d say it’s more down to the defender’s themselves - unless you guys think they’re not getting coached on defending in which case you should be abusing the defensive coaches. 

Our manager was a defender

[Spit_It_Out]

Some of them are needing to get out of holiday we are safe mode.

Just so flat nothing about them today very very poor on all fronts.

And far more from open play when he does

[wellsince75]

We’ve been dreadful since we got ourself out of danger - thankful we did of course .

 

we play the same players in the same formation each week .  We’ve been reasonable safe for a while now. A bit of experimentation is required .

 

current league position likely to be end of season piston.  Time for a few changes to give us something to try and get behind

I don't think that's true. 

For whatever reason his face doesn't fit with Kettlewell but when you look at the games this season where we have actually defended well Mugabi has been playing.

Apparently the ball was headed straight out by an Aberdeen player but they were awarded the corner. Obviously we need to defend the resultant set piece much better but the officials have been quite generous to them in each and every fixture this season. I can't wait to get this season in the bin, hopefully VAR follows as well.

Nah, I’m pretty sure it was a corner

He's played a lot of games this season for someone who's face doesn't fit

He was a midfielder.

The point stands that we've got some shite defenders and that he seemingly can't coach them to do the basics. Every opposition manager knows that all their team has to do is lob balls into our box, and then we'll gift them goals. It's pathetic. 

[Yodo]

Hope to never see Spittal in a Well shirt ever again 

[Stevie73]

A season we need to put to bed, too many players not good enough to play at this level, Manager needs a serious tactic change for next season or it’s going to be more of the same, sort out the fcukin set piece defending, it’s embarrassing

Don't worry about Bevis, he's not going to be here next season. 

Correct SK is signing Scougall to play CH

Big Bevis a brilliant big guy but I have just never rated him. Great in the air but apart from that. But just my view

[Yodo]

Let the cull begin ? Is can SK build a team he’ll be gone by Xmas or September week end

Aye it's the thought of O'Donnell, Kelly, McGinn, Halliday, Nicholson and Vale being here next season that worries me. 

[StirlingDosser]

Can't wait for this season to be over so we can look forward to more of the exact same next season.

Vale is on loan so he probably won't be and he's been decent for us. As has McGinn

Heard a rumour that Kettlewell told the players to make sure they lost the game today so that four absolute wankers could have an evening of bitching on an internet forum. After four games without a defeat, they might not have survived another.

Someone who stood in a Greggs queue behind the next door neighbour of a former director.
