St Johnstone v Motherwell 25/01/2025

[santheman]

Think that's it for me unfortunately.

[prideoflanarkshire]

Manager bottled it against bottom of the league and went defensive with 10 mins to go. His subs everywhere are shocking

Wtf does he say to them at half Time? I thought we were dominant the first half. Getting forward, keeping possession albeit not making many chances. 
1-0 up and he clearly sets us up to get as many men as possible behind the ball and hold on…. St Johnstone are fkn atrocious 

I've said it all season,it's bedtime stories and horlicks at half time,we go through the motions all the time in the second half of games.

[MJC]

1-0 up with three minutes to go against the worst side in the league and we don’t even get a draw. 
 

I’m sorry but that is just unprofessional. 
 

We are in trouble now. 

[couttsy]

6 points off the play off place, with Celtic to come next week. Unless we get Miller, Stamp etc back soon I’d be surprised if we avoid 2nd bottom.

[robsterwood]

Please don't let Kettlewell spend any more money. Hope we can get manager in before window ends.

[ppower]

Scored a penalty and created nothing. I am afraid that Kettlewell is a dead man walking. We are the worst football playing team in the league. Injuries?? Every team gets injuries. No excuses. Get rid of him now. Bottom six for sure and if this keeps up play off spot. Celtic next.

[Chanzeypopz]

Relagation play offs here we come

[ZT_1886]

Been on the fence but he has to go now for me. Two pathetic displays against by far the worst team in the league this season. 1 win in 9 and look in serious danger of slipping down the league.

[mfc]

To lose to them back to back is shocking,we were asking for trouble sitting back and hoping too see that through,add in bringing on the likes of davor and it's no surprise they turned the game around.

[grizzlyg]

"We all need to take ownership....myself included" yes Stuart...blah blah blah. 

Been a defender of him lots but for me that's it but it ain't going to happen so we are stuck with him

[Fairhill]

But who's out there as a manager, and that still leaves a bunch of players who've just stopped playing.

[Welly Machine]

FFS! Ross County huge game for us.

Yes still same players but least tactics can change. Every week surrendering possession. No matter quality of opposition.

If we did sack him (which we won’t) then Frail will get the job. 

[steelman1991]

Time for him to go.

[wellfan]

What happens when someone is promoted above their ability and given a blank cheque for several transfer windows? 

This is what happens. A massive and aimless squad who can barely muster more than 30% possession most games.

We’re going nowhere under Kettlewell, except down the table and decreasing our bank balance. 

[Stevie73]

Don’t know where our next win comes from, why so many subs when we are winning a tight game, baffling. Every team in the league play better football than we do, shouldn’t have gave him the window 

[prideoflanarkshire]

When we the last game we had over 40% in a game. You keep giving the opposition the ball then they have more chances to score. How simple is it!!

are they not both on rolling contracts? Just bin both and get someone new in with the promise at the end of the season they can have a clear out of just about every player and bring in their own players.

What do you expect?

We’re only a wee club punching way above our weight.

And Kettlewell got us to a Semi Final

 

 

 

 

But on a serious note you are spot on.

[ppower]

It was a good header to clear the ball and Davor ambled out to try and close down. He didn't. Another piece of deadwood. Oh and it was Tombola football again. Subbed half the team. Same as last week. The last manager to end up doing that was Stevie Hammell and you know how that ended.

Sadly your right,I mind you predicted kettlewell would get the job before anybody else.if and when kettlewell goes then frail should be out the door with him,it's both of them are none of them.

[Erskine Alpha]

Very poor setup/tactics, Paton is never a starter and wee davor is at best a sub for a five-a-side. Needs to be change SK has delivered nothing for months that shows any sort of confidence, lost the dressing room and the fans

[Spit_It_Out]

That's it for me I can't defend this nonsense anymore had his time had his chances but enough is enough.

If he is such a footballing man that he makes himself out to be he would walk but he won't cause he knows our board is not going to do jack.
