The Bair Pitch Project.

Moult has looked much more like the Moult we knew and loved so far tonight. He looks a lot fitter and sharper than he did at any point last season. But as I’ve always said, no player is bigger than the club. See whenever I read your posts, I just immediately think of the average ‘pub bore’. You know, the loudmouth that stands at the bar listening into and trying to butt into various conversations around him. Always got plenty to say about fuck all and is just a general annoyance to everyone in earshot. Anyone who has ever frequented a pub in or around Motherwell or Glasgow in the last 20 years will know where I’m coming from on that.

I was greatly encouarged by SK's recent press interview. He stressed the importnace of getting the basics right; being solid, reliable, hard working and organised. Once we achieve that we start to "add layers" in his view. 100% agree with that. Any team that achieves that basic stanadard will stay up. The fancy stuff comes after that.

I have a photo of faddy and I from well open day in 2013, he was bald as a coot then and looked older than he does now......I however have aged great..(aye right.....said Mrs grizzly)

Obika also has more Premiership goals than Messi, Ronaldo, Zico, Maradona and Eusebio combined.

He feckin better

Sooner or later SK is going to hit a bad patch where we lose a few on the bounce, so it will be interesting to see how he deals with that. For now though, as you say, he just keeps preaching the basics while picking up results and long may that continue. You could see in the group games there was a layer or two that had been worked on over the summer. The most obvious one being how we played out from the back. Looking forward to this one tomorrow. Hoping the weather holds so I can take my bacon roll and the computer outside to watch in the sunshine.

does the big danish newby start ??? just asking for a friend call stuart

Ba dummm tss...good one pal

You have just made Kettlewell's case for signing Theo Bair...

KVV was a huffy bugger. A bit like the grand old duke of York, during his purple patch everything was perfect. When things weren't going away his attitude was far from perfect, hence playing for the likes of us rather than a higher level. Pretty sure GA said something along the lines of there is baggage with Kev but he's worth it. Pretty accurate. He certainly was worth it.

KVV did not deserve any criticism what so ever. When he was "looking huffy" etc it due to the fact he was expected to do the donkey work of a Mandron/Obika while trying to do his own job also. The wide players couldn't get close enough regularly to build up any rapport and KVV often had two centre halves to deal with. There were occasional flashes of the KVV we loved in there but he flourished once the system was changed. Not really a surprise.

Tbf like Semih Ayildek as well under McGhee we got offered to take both players without paying a wage opposed to us really wanting them. It'll be interesting to see how it pans out.

Maybe Wenger got it from Weeyin

Biereth looks to be a promiosing signing. Thats now 4 senior strikers we have on our books. That should provide competition and give SK breathing space to develop Bair.

Relax take it easy……..Mika

Just a 1 year loan is that OK for you or would you have preferred 2 years seeing you seem to like this one sight unseen.
