My last words on the Hammell era as its time to move on. Many of us had doubts when he was appointed as a rookie manager, and unfortunately they were realised. The directors also need to review their own decisons over the past year or so, but in a positive way.  Maybe changes in governance are required? Stevie Hammell should have been relieved of his duties over a month ago but the directors dithered and delayed and we've effectively lost 5 weeks in our relegation battle. The toxic atmosphere yesterday was entirely avoidable as El Grew suggested a week or so ago. 

Anyway we now have Stuart Kettlewell in charge temporarily. I hope we now headhunt a new manager and get the right man in quickly, although that won't be easy.  The players too need to step up as well. We, the fans, must do our bit and get behind the club and team. I'd make a plea to get behind the players, especially the younger ones who need encouragement. 

As others have said a lot of soul searching now required throughout the club, but we move on.

COYW.

Well said sir. This is a time when we all need to be together, starting with wed night and creating a great atmosphere......until we see the starting xi....lol

did he not get a hard time from the fans when he left for dortmund grizzly ?  or am a gettin mixed up

He did get some pelters which I found bonkers. I then remember him getting booed when he returned with Celtic. Leaving us for Dortmund was a no brainer

[Stuart Kettlewell discussion thread]

If Lambert then that for me would be a great move.  He has made his money so I dont think wages would be an issue.  And if it's a case of him putting himself in shop window(similar to Steve Clarke going to Killie) them only way he gets a bigger job is if he does well with us .

However I doubt we will get him

[Stuart Kettlewell discussion thread]

Whoever we get needs time. If we go down we can't blame it on them. They need time to sort out the mess they have been left with.

As fans we need to get right behind them and maybe just maybe we can survive this season 

[Stuart Kettlewell discussion thread]

What about John Hughes,?

[Motherwell v St Mirren 16/02/2023]

I expect a big reaction on Wednesday which I feel is a kick in the teeth for Hammell. No idea if we will win but we shall see

I would think both Goodwin and Ross would be in the picture, If either are appointed it would probably be better to see it as a long term project and retain them even if we go down.

Yep , exact 2 names I would consider. Both had bad experiences in last jobs but I think both would improve us.

Another new signing? Lol

At least we had a nice strip today ......oh.hang on

If Hammy goes I would have no problem with yogi, I mean we made a boo boo appointing Hammell (sorry folks).

Yogi decent record but seems to get judged a lot on how he speaks (bit like Martindale).   Yogi would kick arses and hey if it doesn't work at least we tried

[Aberdeen v Motherwell 04/02/2023]

"disappointing....not good enough....looked good in training.....but (scratches head).....it's disappointing.....not good enough......(scratches head)......but we go again next week.

Loved him as a player and will always be a well legend but not a manager 

[Aberdeen v Motherwell 04/02/2023]

Though at same time, the players have a lot to answer for. Disgrace 

[Aberdeen v Motherwell 04/02/2023]

Aye Stevie, the players are right behind you. Horrible to see as the guy is a well legend but enough is enough.

Playing one up is feckin shite if that’s what he’s doing.

KVV as lone striker doesn't work so we are losing and what does Hammy do?........ unbelievable Jeff 

[Aberdeen v Motherwell 04/02/2023]

Right KVV, let's see how much this club means to ye, get us out of this mess

[Aberdeen v Motherwell 04/02/2023]

Is Furlong playing well? Hopefully as young and fit he can go the extra mile......ps. biggest 45 mins of Hammy's career, let's see how much the players are behind him

[Aberdeen v Motherwell 04/02/2023]

I feel we have the players but Hammy isn't getting best out of them. And you ain't going to win anything with Spittal and Goss in midfield 

[Aberdeen v Motherwell 04/02/2023]

At least we have plenty options on bench.  Long way to go
