None of the names mentioned were inspiring. I certainly wasnt excited about Valikari, Lambert, Thomson and the like ... The market we operate in its highly unlikely to get someone to excite anyone.

" He knows what the fans are like " and he still wanted the job...he's mad ...

There are positives in that he's been watching the same utter shite we have for 8 months so he will know probably better than the other candidates where we need to sign players whereas the other candidates might have taken longer to suss that out and time is of the essence.

Christ the Lord Almighty himself couldnt give us great European nights.

Why would Valakari do a job for us , why would any of the names do a job for us. Remember folk falling over themselves with joy when we appointed GA. Said at the time I didnt rate GA and he did nothing to change that view. Truly the worst football I've ever watched. As I said every manager we get is a risk. I just happen to think Lennon would do a job for us. As someone has already said its not even a consideration just something throwing his name in but I remain in a position where it wouldn't upset me if he was in the frame.

We'll play safe

Id still take a chance if he was available, anyone we get is a punt.

I think you are right I still think it will be Valakari which I'm completely neutral about.

Sadly true but still reckon hed do a job for us.

it would be mayhem but above all he has a track record and can manage but hed be too expensive and the club know we have an element in our support whod never take to him.

Id take the devil himself if he could manage and give us something better than the eye bleeding shite we've had to endure.

Would take Lennon in a heartbeat. A horrible chip on the shoulder wee git but he can manage but would get 20 mins tops with the bigots in our support.

But can he make a difference in a 3 week transfer window cos God Almighty himself wont turn that dross we have into an effective unit.

I wouldn't read anything into that, we haven't even held interviews yet. Mcbookies odds are no more a predictor of who it's going to be than this thread is. Bookies merely reflect betting patterns bugger all else.

Im in a minority of one. I couldn't care less who we get because no fans myself included are in anyway qualified to determine whether someone will be good bad or indifferent managing Motherwell. There are no guarantees no matter who they are. We will get who we will get and those in charge of the club are paid to do the necessary due diligence.

GA was a risk, Robertson was a risk ..frankly everyone is a risk. Thats the nature of the beast.

Id imagine there were a few dropped jaws within the club at Liam Kellys comments and "operation salvage relationship with the fans" was quickly drawn up.

I think that was against Kilmarnock

Sorry I still think hes a big muppet.

Daily Record talking shite. That would cost us and St Mirren wouldnt let him go -- just yet.

Oh christ never in a million years , closest I ever came to chucking watching Motherwell was watching that wee arsehole spend fortunes - biggest operating budget outside the OF - and we struggled to get into the top six. Then when he got a lower budget the utter shite he assembled including his brother.

As long as thats all he gets a big donkey.

im going for the latter

Still fancy us to lose because the shite we have are not suddenly going to transform. I think we need 3/4 players to bolster this squad to see us to the point where we can safely punt most of the dross and there is plenty to punt. The less toxic atmosphere may help but Ive watched Motherwell for too many years to think differently.

a free doesnt mean we shouldnt be looking to win it but it does mean we are not under the intense pressure we would have been had GA stayed the atmosphere would have been utterly toxic , if we went a goal down it would be utter poison
