Only 6 days ago a kilmarnock fan was found guilty of racially abusing Alex Dyer on social media. It was a Rangers fan but nice try. Not that it matters, it’s not as if one set of fans/people doing this means another set can do it too. -6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryMc93 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Found a podcast Bartley was on last month and he comes across as driven, ambitious and articulates his points well. Also enthusiastic about becoming a manager in his own right and I think enthusiasm is something Mathie has shown from the two interviews so far and will be looking for someone to match that. Bartley’s currently mostly responsible for the defensive side of things at Livi so he’d need to use all that knowledge here. Did speak about a few examples regarding his experience of man management one of which was getting dropped for the Scottish Cup final and the manager not letting him know beforehand and how such situations will help shape him as a manager. Still not convinced it's a done deal unless Mathie's list was narrowed down as the others on it said no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_Problemo Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Funnily enough, Bartley would improve our midfield immensely too if he was able to get the coaching staff right to allow himself to play as a stop gap for the rest of the season. Ideally, signings in January would mean he wouldn’t need to though. I’m aware he most likely won’t get the job after these discussions though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall numerous times the mutants in your support racially abused your own manager. Here's one here (a racist anonymous letter). https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/football/2020/dec/28/kilmarnock-condemn-racist-abuse-after-letter-sent-to-manager-alex-dyer I can't be bothered looking for more but pretty sure Morelos was racially abused at Rugby Park as well recently (not this season right enough!). Perhaps try condemning the minority in your own support and people wouldn't question your sincerity on this thread. Racism in all its forms should be condemned but using it to point score on a football forum is bizarre behavior imo. Thank you and f**k off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was of the view that he had to stop playing to put all his efforts into being the manager. However, as it happened, he probably should have played himself more and he'd still have been manager now. If Bartley were to be the manager and he were to play he needs an old heid on the touchline to support. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking for his first gig and experience with youth teams at Motherwell. However, you're right he is a pundit now. I just haven't seen him much but I think that's because he was part of BT lineup and its Sky again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also of the view that we probably need to take into account going forward that this same week two years in a row now there's been a big covid wobble backwards, things have to change to move on from this and it may well be that for football at the end of the year we need to have a break from playing across all of the leagues. I guess we will get a taster next year with the world cup (obviously our whole team will be there representing various nations). All the latest data coming out of SA is pointing to a sharp increase in infections followed by an equally as sharp drop off, so if we follow the same pattern here then hopefully the three weeks will be enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but remember we are not South Africa. We have an older population. They are in the middle of summer whilst it's winter here. Blah blah blah.

Yes, I've been over in Spain three out of the last five weeks and covid is hardly mentioned other than a quick 5 mins on their News giving the infection rates around the country. Our media have much to answer for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seem obsessed with the numbers by comparison. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
