We should be looking for a new team to recruit in the summer? How do you think players will feel if he walks now? Hes not going to walk. They'll need to sack him.

You asked me a question. I answered it.

His recruitment team? Dont you mean the one he inherited from Alexander? Kettlewell didn't recruit Daws as far as I'm aware.

No.

I'm just amazed that SOD gets all the grief when Bevis form is so all over the place. The odd goal he scores doesn't make up for the defensive errors

I don't agree.

I think Butcher deserves to stay. Just my view. He's been solid in times where Bevis hasn't been. He's got a lot of good qualities as a player. A shame about that injury

I actually completely agree with this. He should have been dropped ages ago but our squad was so thin it would have been harder to do. SOD gets all the pelters. Very rarely Bevis

Disagree. Cannot see how Butcher has to go but Bevis stays. Bevis is a good guy but he's cost us too many times defensively.

Sorry it's five in 26. Yeah the draws are killing us but I honestly can't be bothered right now. I'm really sorry for the folk paying every week particularly away games to see us lose but if we need to stutter our way over the line so be it. And if we go down we go down. I hope we won't but I'll support the team no matter. It's out of my control. All I can do is back the team

It's five in 25 I believe and no not great reading but we've won five

We never do anything the easy way that's for sure

According to Frail he's not signed a pre contract.

It was me that suggested that Spittal had been rested because I saw that elsewhere on social media but someone else later on the Motherwell Facebook page said he failed a fitness test this morning. Folk were also saying Butcher was suspended but apparently it was injury that kept him out.

Or Stevie Robinson has him locked in a cupboard.

Yeah that would make sense.

A few people have said it over on Motherwell Facebook - which doesn't of course make it factual - just that they observed that Butcher was suspended and that Spittal was being rested.

More than one person has suggested it elsewhere on social media - not that I'm saying that makes it factual but given the number of games we've played lately it could be a possibility.

He's apparently being rested. Butcher suspended.

Or suspended.

I actually remember someone elsewhere on social media wanting the club to arrange a meeting with Graham Alexander and fans so that he could justify to the fans his team selections.

I actually don't think he said anything that controversial - said that it was to be expected that new players might make the odd mistake. Obviously understand why people might feel frustrated that he's not talking about other more established players but I've never thought that Kettlewell has been very player critical. In fact there have been post match interviews where I think he's been too generous to players when we've been honking. He's also in essence being put on the spot with the journalists asking the questions

This isn't Miller's first season. He got his first start at the beginning of the 22/23 season. From a personal perspective I always thought that Bair put a decent shift in even when he wasn't scoring.

To be fair he said in the interview that Halliday was a key player for us. Perhaps Davor took his chance when someone else got injured. Casey maybe.

I have to stick my neck out here and say I don't think MJC is yodo or steelboy. I think steelboy has a certain style of posting. Tbh I may regret saying this but I don't think steelboy is the worst. It's just that so many of his posts just seems like he doesn't like the club - when that probably isn't the case. It's just exasperation like we all go through.
