Motherwell FC - A Thread For All Seasons


Recommended Posts

I've never seen a player get so much leeway and good will from a support, as Theo Bair got from the saints fans. I think universally the supporters wanted it to happen for him so badly, but time and time again he simply showed he's being kind....not very good at football. As others have said, he's a specimen and a half, but can't use it in the same way Obika or Mandron showed last season and just looks like bambi on ice.

Lovely guy and wish him all the best, but would be a poor signing.

This kid looks fuckin class.

Aye. I'm all in on him.

Granted all of this stuff is at u23s level but he's doing a lot of the same sort of things as Kev but in a less beardy way. He looks fucking magic.

Even at that, his goals against Groningen were exactly what I'm after

 

It was nice layoff from the rumoured signing target to set up his team mate but at 7:41 I just got flashback of Connor Shields against Dundee United and Livi.

Does anyone now think we will get Bair on board but not Mika. The point about Bair being a squad player is a valid one. We simply cannot afford good strikers to set on the bench all season long. If we get Mika and Bair is the consolation prize I could just about live with that.

That is simply not fair……Shields would have hit the bar from that range 😂

Bair sounds like a plan B, a lump in the last 10 minutes and hope he can cause chaos in the box. Even just through presence. 

If he runs without it looking like 4 different people are controlling his legs and arms then its surely a step up from Mandron.

It would need to be presence as the big daft c**t can't header the ball. 

Bair is a big athlete, just a pity the boy can't play football.

His career is going to be a succession of clubs acting this out...

... as they see a huge, quick, striker. 

Only to realise a few months in that the problem with him is his personality (that might be wrongly taken as me saying hes a bad influence, hes not. He just doesnt seem to have the competitive attitude needed for football here) and that cant be changed.

Isn't that what Bevis is for ?

If he's as bad as he's being made out to be I'd like to think that Kettlewell has at least had him at a couple of training sessions to see it for himself.

Always assuming what is essentially an online rumour is true of course.
