Stuart Kettlewell insists he’ll let results do the talking as he prepares for his first audition for the Motherwell manager’s job.
The former Ross County boss admits he’d struggle to turn down an offer of the job permanently even though it would be a gamble after stepping up from his job in the Well academy. Kettlewell is among the favourites to land the position full-time and his hand would be strengthened should he get off to a flier against St Mirren tomorrow night.
Fir Park directors don’t want to delay a decision too long with the club in the midst of a relegation dogfight and other names in the frame include John Hughes, Jim Goodwin, James McPake and Ian McCall. Kettlewell insists he won’t go pushing himself to the board for the job vacated by Steven Hammell just three days ago. But he said: “If the club felt that I was a guy who could take this club in the next 14 games and make things better, and they believed in me and thought I was the right fit, it’s something for me to consider.
