If Watt’s grip socks remain fully pulled up for the remainder of the season, and we secure 7th spot as a result of his efforts, then I’m certain he’ll be offered a deal. Whether or not he’s deserving of that, particularly when the entire season is considered, is another story.

My point entirely.
Its not always how much money you have.
More how wisely you spend it.......
You have to wonder how much additional money the club has had to fork out on loan players to cover the crocks and duds who shouldn’t have been signed in the first place. And then consider how shit some on those loanees are.
The mismanagement of the squad and budget has been staggering. Heads should roll.

Give them Kettlewells phone number .
He’s probably still on the phone to them the now, blabbing about Theo Bair.

Tough watch today but it was good to see Wimmer changing things up and there were a few really good individual performances too.

Balcome needs to get down to that
Wimmer persisting with Balcombe who is utter shite does raise questions.

Having to follow along online. The BBC said that Wimmer “changed the system” before the first goal. What did he change to?
A slightly less shite version of shite.

Why Johnny did not play previously is a mystery.
It’s no mystery. He was Kettlewelled.

Two great assists from Watt, particularly the first.

Plange is a winger not a lone forward as he was expected to play that day. Thats on the manager
According to all previous stats, Plange has primarily played as a centre forward.

Dog shit again. How long do we now give Wimmer. His record not great prior to this job and he's getting nothing out this team.
Kettlewell amassed probably one of the worst squads I’ve witnessed in my lifetime as a Well fan and Wimmer is evidently struggling to build a team out of it. The latter really needs to change it up before he also loses his job.

Give the ball away far too easily.
Where has our press gone?
Good finish though.
Wimmer stated that we don’t have the players for the high press so he’s dropped it from his tactical approach for now. We also don’t have the players to play a back 3 with wing backs so he really needs to switch to a 4231 before we end up in deep shit.

What happened to Plange, injured or just keech.
Hopefully we can get over the line today with the three points.
He’s crap. He started against St Mirren at Fir Park in March and got completely bullied by Gogic and Iacovitti, and was hooked after 57 mins.

I would give Stama a pre season and until the January transfer window 2026 if we don't see anything by then maybe best to part ways if we can but I have the feeling he might be off this summer.
Seen glimpses of something but he needs to stay fit as a fiddle week in week out and I don't think that part is achievable sadly.
He shouldn’t be going anywhere this summer unless another club offers us some decent money for him.

I'd happily move him on - ideally for some cash
He averages 12-17 games per season, this season isn't unsusal for him.
We can't afford this type of player on our books.
Aye, we have several of these types on our books, hence the tissue paper comment. We’ve amassed a bloated squad littered with crocks and duds.

Clearly AS was brought in in the hope he would do us a turn get good and sell on but that's looking like 50/50 for me still time to shine.
Stama has 2 years left on his contract so he does still have ‘time to shine’. However, given he’s made of tissue paper and is 10,000 miles from home, I think the best we can hope to get from our investment is a few more goals and assists. He certainly hasn’t put himself in the shop window this season.

I’m not suggesting we should sign Moult again, as I agree with many of the comments above. However, a blind drunk Louis Moult would likely offer more next season than our recent marquee signing ever will.

Derek Adams relegated out the EFL leagues with Morecambe for the first time in 18 years
Dodged a bullet in the past not getting the guy as our manager
It’s nice to see his arrogance continue to result in success. He’ll soon be filed into the same bin as Davies.

Copied from St Johnstone fan over on P&B.
Make of it what you will.
I don't think theres much chance we'll keep any clean sheets now tbh.
Technically only one fit CB now, whos a 19yo loanee right back. Only playable CB is trying to get used to playing with a mask due to a broken nose, then the only other defender is a left back who can't run, cant last more than an hour, and had an absolute horror show to the point we might play a right winger at left back against you.
And someone else said that they could play Simo at CB and we still wouldn’t be able to produce a shot on target.
We need to worry about addressing our own deficiencies first and foremost.

I’m not Halliday’s biggest fan but I can understand his name being mentioned for POTY, particularly as the pickings are slim and he has been ever-present this season.

Will not make any difference but I hope MFC have registered a complaint about the whole situation.
They’d be as well registering the complaint with Upper Crust because the SPFL and SFA could not give two shits about members such as our club.

How is it defeatist to actually acknowledge we got to a semi final this year?
Because talk of ‘natural order’ is defeatist. With that attitude, we might as well not bother.

Genuine question. If the three centre backs can't restrict chances given to the opposition from balls into the box, why is picking two out of the same three to do that very job a 'no brainer' ?
Because we’re persisting with a system that requires proper wingbacks to function effectively, which we do not have. The alternative is, therefore, a flat back 4 with 2 defensive midfielders sitting in front to protect them, and 3 midfielders in front of them to provide some attacking penetration and width to feed the 1 up top. A simple 4-2-3-1 as proposed by @joewarkfanclub above.

Following on from the previous post, if I was picking a team under the remit of contracted players that will get the job done, Id go......
Ox
Koutroumbis Gordon Balmer Wilson
Miller Halliday
Sparrow Slattery Maswanhise
Armstrong
But given Wimmer is unlikely to move away from a 5 at the back, and Casey isnt likely to be one of those that chuck it he could go........
Ox
Balmer Gordon Casey
Koutroumbis Wilson
Miller Slattery
Sparrow Maswanhise
Armstrong
For me the 4 at the back works much better with the players available.....
A back four is a no brainer for this squad. Christ knows why Kettlewell and Wimmer think otherwise.

Halliday is one who has surprised me and surpassed my expectations this season, so I can’t really grumble at him being offered an extension. He’s been solid.
Ward is an unknown but I can only assume - and hope - that he and Ox will be battling it out for the no. 1 jersey next season.
