I'd disagree with this tbh. There were a few goals like the chip against Livi or the one at Ibrox where he skinned a defender or pulled off some pretty technically impressive finishes. I do agree that he's probably out of his depth in Ligue 1 where the base technique and proficiency will be a lot higher but if I think of recent guys that were all blood and thunder I think Bair had much more ability on the ball than Bowman or Main etc.

I'm not reading anything else into it but I do find it a bit odd he's starting tonight.

He's behind Sparrow at about 5 seconds here https://x.com/MotherwellFC/status/1937888523849511076?t=Q_ZiVVVLZqlGhkmTATAbhA&s=19

I love McGhee. The man is absolutely hilarious.

I don't really get why we'd have gave SOD a clause in his favour. He was hardly going to have loads of offers from clubs higher up the foodchain.

Not having a go but I would quite like to see an MJC league table like the BBC used to do with Mark Lawrenson's predictions. I'm not sure we'd hit double figures.

I don't think we'll go down but if we do get relegated from here it's hard not to see it as a pretty massive failure on his part, I'm not sure there'd be much justification for keeping him on at that point.

He's called up Celtic, Hearts, Hibs, St Mirren and Dundee United players to their squad so I'd hope he knew a bit more than most outsiders would.

Can English teams not only loan out 5 players abroad at a time? Arteta might think Kettlewell is an absolutely cracking guy but it doesn't mean they can just give us half their u21s.

Could you compare Valikari's start to Kettlewell's first few months post-Hammell, then?

Tempting fate but I hate almost every member of this Kilmarnock team and would love it if they got dragged into a relegation battle.

No idea what Steelboy said to start off this line of discussion but I don't think his post is any weirder than the one boasting about their FiL fighting in Vietnam? It's only been widely considered a catastrophic waste of time for about 60 years.

I reckon Miller's probably technically+ definitely physically better and more equipped to move up a few levels and really shine in the modern game- but I think you'd be mental to say that Turnbull didn't have a bigger impact on games week to week than Miller has had so far. To be fair I'm not even sure if Turnbull had made his debut by the age Miller is now?

Haha, he has just been booked there apparently, as it goes. Here's hoping there's a second.

He's in the lineup against Hearts today, are you just anticipating him getting booked?
