Shocking yet again,whatever way the manager wants us to play we need better defenders,there's no two ways about it.
-
Any player that likes to dribble and beat the opposition is a welcome and much needed addition,he looks to have a bit about him from they highlights.
-
The fact that a bang average player like James forrest is the most decorated player is celtics history says it all,if miller really wants to reach his potential and get the very most out the talent he's got then he shouldn't even entertain for a second going there.turnbull took the lazy option and is paying for it now,no good can come of playing against the same crap teams 4 times a season.miller is good enough to go abroad and succeed and be the a mainstay at international level for over the next decade,celtic or rangers shouldn't even be on his radar.

Good riddance

I have literally never met a Motherwell fan who wanted us to merge with Accies. Ever.
Mind there was talk of us merging with airdrie when boyle first came in and the fans were going off there head about that,like you said I've never met a motherwell fan that has wanted to merge with any other club.ive also never known a Motherwell fan that thinks we're a tinpot entity either that's a smaller club than morton and Dunfermline,mjc is clearly making stuff up cause there isn't any games the now where he can predict we're going to lose every time.

Ask Dundee if Tony was a safe pair of hands. The statement ...... knows the Scottish game and safe pair of hands is why Scottish Football is shite, boring and dying on its arse.
Thought you had more imagination than that.
I couldn't agree more,the scottish game is pish cause there's far too many managers that play the same way and sign the same old guff players that float between premier league clubs,kettlewell is a prime example,shit manager that's filling his Kilmarnock squad with rejects from around the league.lets be honest McInnes to hearts,kettlewell to Killie and Pressley to dundee is grim.the safe pair and of hands patter is another way of saying there a shit manager.no manager needs to have experience of the scottish league to go and get results against the likes of livingston and dundee.im all for us breaking the mould again and going with a foreign manager,who knows how it will work out for us but i for one would have been on a downer before the season started if we had appointed one of the usual suspects in the scottish game.

For talking sake would you take Shankland (potentially 20+ goals) if we sold Miller for a good whack of cash or go with the new managers options? I don’t think it would make sense but if he was willing to come would it be of benefit or a detriment? I’m leaning towards no but this is also not a rumour
Shankland is staying at hearts now and would be well out of our price range even when miller is sold.our forward line needs serious attention though,last night only highlighted the problems that we seen the whole of last season.

Fuck sake,will we ever catch a break on the injury front.
-
The whole needing knowledge of the scottish game is such backwards thinking,imagine we had appointed someone like Pressley,it's guys like that and the kettlewells that will stop any kind of improvement in this country as long as there employed.we play in a league where 10 teams are separated by very little and any manager coming into it can be reasonably successful if they have half a brain in there head.

Just now, wellgirl said:
Killie have signed about five players to date I think. We've signed no one. Wasn't expecting us to to be fair given our manager situation
To be fair there isn't one player that Killie have signed that I would take for us,livingston are another that are getting there signings done early and again I wouldn't have taking any of them for us.ive no idea about fadinger but I think mcghee will be a good signing for us and for me is probably the best of the lot that have swapped between premier league clubs.

We are also in the situation where other teams can afford to pay more than us. St Mirren. Killie. Assume we'll be relying on the usual free transfers and loans
St mirren and Killie will also be relying on the usual frees and loans,killies signings have been poor so far and liam donnolly going to st mirren isn't a great signing for them either.
-
I wonder if we were ever in talks with sylla but a 3 year deal for a guy that will be 32 this year,if there was any interest I'm glad we didn't pursue it.

Ok for a bit of fun here is my 3-4-3
Positives - pace on either side of a striker who can get goals, the negatives is the two wide players cannot in any way for me tackle and retreat when not on the attack. That means we would need to have defensive minded midfielders.
No Miller presumed here.
Oxborough
McGinn
Gordon
Balmer
Sparrow
McGhee
Fadinger
Wilson
Robinson
Stama
Maswahine
Remain unconvinced but best I could do - not much creativity in midfield which looks weak and lightweight
Someone fix it for me!The way he's been playing slattery would be the first midfielder in the team.

Good too see st mirren keeping up there quota of signing ex well players,this time it's liam donnolly.
-
I hope his wedding cake gives him a dose of the shits.

I would rather both had left,odonnell doesn't have the legs to play full back nowadays so we have shuffled him inside where he's an accident waiting to happen at centre half.mcginn has been a very solid player for us but it's asking a lot for him to come back in after missing nearly the whole of last season.were going to need back ups next season and that's the role they should be.

Any update on whether his work permit’s been approved? The first team are back in for pre-season tomorrow, and we should be due a welcome interview with him soon as well.
One of the posters over on pie and bovril said the manager was in the building and started work today.

Scottish football is stagnant . All the usual home grown managers play same type of shit football tactically. Learned from the same books probably .
One team plays one way so the other sets up to negate that. This along with playing each other 4 times if not more a season does make for boring stuff , boring managers with no room to trying something different . It's boring as fuk to watch. The majority of games in the league now are well below the standard they should be .Maybe someone from outside can bring something different along and bring back a bit of excitement back into a Saturday.
I live in hope.
And by the by this attitude is reflected in the National team as well. The manager make watching paint dry seem exciting.
You've nailed my thoughts word for word there.
-
It's not quite a clean slate but with some players moving on already and a good fee for miller almost certainly incoming then there should be enough scope for the new manager to make the changes that's required.no harm to any of the guys that are out of contract that might yet stay but I hope none of them do.

Couldn't agree more a complete overhaul of the defence is long overdue.
