Stevie Hammell admits he would love it if Motherwell gave him the manager’s job on a permanent basis, but insists the focus is just on beating St Johnstone at Fir Park tomorrow.
Academy director Hammell was thrust into the interim manager’s job last week after Graham Alexander and Chris Lucketti stepped down, with he and under-18 coach Brian Kerr given 48 hours to prepare the side for a 1-0 win at St Mirren in their Premiership opener on Sunday, courtesy of Kevin van Veen's first-half penalty.
Having had an association with Motherwell that goes back to 1997, Hammell would love it if he got the nod from the board to continue, but says he’ll look at that next week.
