    How much time left before another one bites the dust?

    I'd say at least half the clubs in the league would have taken action by this point if their club has had the recent results Motherwell have produced. Worst in the league by far.
    Tomorrow? One more game, two, three, wait till sitting absolute bottom?

    Something has happened to upset the dressing room. The level of performance and effort has dropped to zero and before someone says it confidence... its seems to be a lot deeper than that. Sk is not going to get a tune out of this fiddle any time soon.

    Clubs in our league go long winless runs all the time.

    We're obviously in bother but we will only consider sacking SK if it's looking utterly terminal.

    The alternative of binning the manager every seven-eight months will absolutely lead to relegation. Our budget is precious enough without continually doubling up on costs.

    This season is all about survival and balancing the books. We're clearly on a shocking run but as long as there's remote hope of turning it round we'll hold fire.

    The heads are down, opponents look to have us sussed and it looks increasingly like it was KvV and not Kettlewell who kept us up last season.

    I see St.Johnstone are set to appoint Craig Levein. That is sickening as he will definitely improve them and would certainly have been a great appointment for us.

    We don’t need a master tactician we just need someone who can set us up to be competitive and use the players he has correctly. Levein has experience of delivering at our level and will be an excellent boss for St.J.

    I'm not advocating we sack SK, just
    pointing out that more or less the same current squad of players minus KvV suddenly turned it around once SH was out the door. At the time we were willing to accept that SK was a wizard of Harry Potter proportions when in actual fact the squad had achieved their aims and started performing!! The turn around then sudden demise of our results is a bit too dramatic for me to accept.

    Take the captaincy off of Kelly and give it to either Butcher or Casey. Bier and Wilkinson are both woeful and their goals per games throughout their careers prove that. Switch Spencer to the right side of the pitch that way he can stop opposing forwards from taking him on the outside on his weaker foot, it would also allow him to cross balls into opposition box without having to double back to get the ball onto his right foot like he is doing at present game on game whilst playing on the left side

    You can have sympathy with some things - arguably poor strikers are symptomatic of budget - but Kettlewell started strongly through keeping it simple with players in their proper positions. As such insisting Spencer stays on the left is properly odd.

    A win is now required on Tuesday to stop the rot; otherwise, he'll be emptied sooner rather than later.
