Him criticising fans though wasn't going to lead to the entire support turning their back on him surely - because there are sections of our fans who have had nothing good to say about him since the day he was appointed - fans can criticise him but he can say nothing back?. I think thats a bit odd. Particularly because he gave that interview after a section of our fans were shouting abuse at him after the cup game I also think there are too many sweeping generalisations about him losing the fans and fans turning their back on him - the Motherwell fc facebook page tonight is full of people saying sorry he's gone - so clearly the entire support wasn't against him Edited to say I'm talking in general

A suspension doesn't mean he's abused someone - someone on here who sits near him at Fir Park said that they never heard him abusing officials - I'm sure they said he was no different from last season when he wasn't being carded - am sure some people felt he was being targeted because he criticised referees

There's no evidence that Stuart Kettlewell abused officials - people who sat near him said otherwise - people can slate him for many things but let's not make things up as we go along -and there are plenty people who are sorry he's gone - the Motherwell facebook page is full of people saying they are sorry.

I'm going to start a go fund me for the therapy I'm going to need now - or a lot of wine - or both

You're right - it doesn't

Very possibly - but I don't think he was going to be sacked any time soon.

You're probably right but we'll never know

Spurs?

I personally think there's probably a lot of factors that we won't ever know about. I also personally don't think this would have been an easy decision - he always came across as committed to Motherwell - no matter his faults

It's not a smokescreen if there were sections of our fans abusing him at the last two games surely Maybe the bigger issue is that fans can be upset without resorting to abuse

I do know that.

That's fair enough - but I stand by what I said earlier - and - if you look back at Kettlewells post match interviews over the last two years - he's been hugely supportive of the players There are also some people who think the comments he made in that interview were aimed at pundits rather than fans I agree the writing was on the wall. I just don't think the bust up with Casey should have been made public - Kettlewell is getting criticised for slating players but an argument with Casey is all over fans forums - what's the difference?

No way would I want Robbo back. I'd rather steelboy got the job

Think it's been clarified that fans weren't abusing his family - just that his family didn't want to go to games to hear him get abused

Apparently wasn't at FP - was at both the St Johnstone games

Well SOD caused the storm - and the cost of living crisis - has to be

Been suggested but nothing confirmed

🤣

Quite

I agree. But the bigger issue for me is whoever leaked that him and Casey had the bust up - the writing was clearly on the wall after that

There's been a few people on Facebook who have said tonight that he and some players got a lot of abuse at both the St Johnstone games. I personally don't feel like I've been thrown under the bus - because I've never abused him - and like I said the other night - I don't think any professional footballer should be downing tools. Until very recently I was living well below the poverty line - I've scraped the money together to get both of my last two years season tickets and some very well paid players just decide to pack it in - not good enough in my view - and some of them have done it with other managers as other folk have said Aye that statement will have rubbed folk up the wrong way - but it's not all on him

I agree. Won't happen

He's gone. Board have reluctantly accepted his resignation

Yeah - not good. Agree

Is he off to Hearts?
