El Grew Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 Players always come and go and that’s just the nature of football. For smaller clubs like ours, the fallout from this, can be very hurtful as it’s hard to find replacements. Having said that, I believe that the most important element is the manager. It’s to be hoped, that if and when JBA leaves, that having gone down the continental route the last twice, that the club will continue with that. Having seen how football should and can be played we do not want to return to the garbage served-up by some of the previous incumbents.

Hopefully, JBA's tenure has laid the 'must know Scottish football' argument to a long overdue rest. And after the last few weeks, anyone who does know Scottish football would probably steer well clear. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The player profiles I checked on the club website didn't mention the additional year option held by the club. I should've paid more attention at the time.

My biggest hope is it starts to dispell the "Scottish mindset" where they are beat in their heads before they face the OF. Our displays against them this season are night and day compared to the last 20 years particularly at Ibrox and Parkhead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of the most pleasing things of the season for me The fact that we were competitive in every game , and had no fear factor against anyone. I am looking for this mindset to continue in future seasons regardless of who the manager or players are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MFCL84 Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 A big loss, not just to Motherwell, but to Scottish football which has just lost a young, progressive, modern manager that would no doubt have taken Motherwell on an upward trajectory that would have had a beneficial knock on for the Scottish game in general. Let's hope we get another one that is just as switched on. Come on ye Well! Thanks and best wishes to Jens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robsterwood Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 Fed up with constant rebuilding. We will never really evolve if we don't have managers on longer term deals. We will not get better chance of winning anything than we had this year. No guarantee we will get any where near as good coach. Kind of bored with it now.
