Stephen O'Donnell gets on every week without fail to pick up a win bonus despite Max being the far better player but McKinstry gets the cold shoulder despite our lack of attacking options and him being our second top scorer.
Who's cornflakes did he piss in?
The manager killed the game and changed the formation today to give his boy Paton a run about. It's not about the formation.
McKinstry is clearly a better player than guys who are getting minutes for us but he is miles out the picture.
And for the hard of reading the comparison isn't between McKinstry and SOD but the fact that the manager is happy to significantly weaken the team to give SOD an appearance and win bonus but McKinstry who would strengthen us is frozen out.
I am sorry but I am sick and tired of spending my y Saturday nights in a good mood!! Lol, only teasing. Great result and the transformation under kettlewell been unbelievable, long may it continue....enjoy yer night folks
At the tail end of Hammells term KVV and a few other players were no good and lazy, the tools well and truly dropped.
All miraculously recovered under SK though, hence our change in fortunes.
Livi have been pretty farts as of late, Can see us winning tomorrow and next week vs Utd but that will only make the last game vs Celtic all the more upsetting when we lose 😭 But considering where we were like 2 months im very happy with where we are now. Kettlewell has worked wonders with this team 🙏
For me Daws is nothing more than a scout hawking players to any club who will take them. If Motherwell feel they need a head of recruitment etc then that person should be based at the club full time, know the players, set up etc and identify players that they think will fit our system and improve on what we have.
When SK outlined the roles he took care of at Ross County - it was incredible he had any team to coach the first team. He seems comfortable pulling the strings rather than having his string pulled.
Re Dawes I'm supportive of having a head of recruitment/talent. What I didn't like is it came across that he doesn't base himself at the club and therefore is more of a scout. If' he's not based at the club regularly ,watching both existing squad players its a challenge to. understand how he'd know what he's seeing elsewhere is better than what we have.
