That was a terrible comment and someone really should say sorry for that because Tony was told Kettlewell said it

Yeah. It's a trauma bond where people suffering from things like domestic violence or being kidnapped have positive thoughts about their abusers to try and cope with their situation.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

When I saw it on pie and bov yesterday I was like god no but you know what - we need someone that can score goals (obviously) and if he does the job that's fine by me. I wasn't happy with the way he Ieft either but I'm happier than I thought I would be to see him back.

Thanks to Iona and Amber for answering my questions. Much appreciated. Sally too. The sound was a bit poor but not their fault - was on my phone and would probably have been better from my laptop.

Tony Watt? According to someone on pie and bov who said they had "sources"

I completely agree. And you know when someone has an injury such as a leg break and ACL tear I don't think that's someone being injury prone. It's a freak injury. I've seen people online slag off the manager for injuries that happened on the pitch. Also agree that Nicolson is bad luck. He played 16 games since he was signed. I hope he recovers and kicks on. His name is Callachan. Other folk have been spelling it wrongly 😏

I'll respond to you another time if that's ok. I'm not dismissing your views.

Great post.

You can't predict injury though can you. And you know some of the previous injuries to Callachan were what you would call freak injuries - leg break. Acl. I personally take my hat off to anyone who plays again after an injury like that. I think there's a difference between being injury prone and having injuries that have happened out of nowhere. Like Slattery did his ACL, so should future clubs be put off by that? I hope everyone who is currently injured recovers and kicks on and that's all you really can hope for. I also think it's been made worse by the fact we lost Bair - and aren't scoring. Spittal too has been a big loss

Yes there is. I'm watching on zoom. I got the email yesterday

They put out two videos I believe - I think two candidates were added slightly later on - the other video is on the Well Society's twitter page. She was definitely on the list of candidates you can vote for.

Perhaps the loss of Spittal is also why the midfield is struggling just now - that and Slattery.

There was one female - think a couple of people were added in a bit later.

Im not trying to dress anything up. Some people are saying that it's easy to get players in - that's the post I was responding to. As for Callachan - surely once he's fit people can make a decision on him. He's only signed for one season with the option of another.

You think it's as easy as just picking up the phone to get new signings in particularly when we are competing against other clubs who can offer better terms.

He stopped playing in April in Australia I believe and then he was called up for the national team. He also said in interviews that he was keeping his own fitness up and I believe he took part in the game against Everton. He's not exactly had no minutes coming into this game and part of the reason Kettlewell put him on was surely because of injury to other players - what is the manager supposed to do with so many other players out Other players we have just now have had muscle injuries with a full pre season behind them Also. Do we think the player was forced to play against his will. I highly doubt it

No need to talk to people like this.

So who do we sign

Slattery caught his studs in the turf. A freak injury and nothing that the club or Kettlewell can be blamed for

I agree with you and I've also seen posts on social media blaming Kettlewell for Blaney, Slattery and Patons injuries. Two happened on the field of play and I believe Slattery did his ACL by catching his studs in the grass. A freak injury

Yes this. This must be part of the reason. No cash makes it a lot easier for staff and that must be part of the reason that they've stopped the cash gate.

I also think part of the reason we don't have cash gates is to make life easier for staff. I've worked turnstiles at Fir Park and at Accies and having no cash gate makes life a lot easier for staff and theres less room for error when no one is handling cash. I'd be surprised if that wasn't a factor in the decision too

I actually support us having a cash gate. I was only trying to say that the spl had rules on under 12s not going into games alone and that's why the OP might have had problems

Indeed 🤣🤣🤣
