Dropped it after second year, can’t remember the teachers

French.

What did she teach? That was my time at school. I would understand if you can’t share the name.

My household has the Eurovision crap on right now Good time to post again . Song for both Andy Halliday and Tony Watt

Thanks for stating the facts. And that appearance record includes a spell when the then Manager opted to leave him out, even when fit. The ACL injury is something interested Clubs will keep an eye on though so I guess January will be the window for offers if he is a regular until then.

You don't have to gatekeep on every single Slattery post

He played 31 games in his first season and 29 in his second. To be fair as well the ACL injury was a freak one. He's had no other injuries since signing for us as far as I'm aware.

Based on current form, and if Miller leaves, Slattery will be our most important/valuable asset. We should look after that.

I agree that selling Slattery this close season would be far from ideal. Especially as we are resigned to losing Miller. However, we are a selling club and we cant dictate when another club will come in for our best players. Its kinda stating the obvious. But the club will have a valuation for all our players where we say, ok, on you go son, and it will be weighed up against the potential value of keeping them vs the risk of injury. Personally, Id be looking at extending Slattery now to protect ourselves. He may not sign, but given we looked after him through a career threatening injury, he might. As long as there is a release clause if a bigger club comes calling. That way everyone is happy.

Slattery has a really bad injury record since arriving at us, I can’t see a team buying him until they see that he can go a full season without a spell on the sidelines. id be really surprised if any team would be willing to take a punt on him right now. id hope he gets a good pre season, stays clear of injury and has an excellent season with us. If he goes at the end of it, even as a free agent, then good luck to him.

That's always true, but has to offset against the value he generates if he stays. An extra round in the cup plus a couple of league positions is worth a few bob. Not an exact science, and carries an element of risk. Plus, you can't afford to keep selling your best players unless you want another battle for 11th spot.

I agree and if, by some miracle, a club offered £500k - £1m for him then I'd say "sell".

The problem is, Slattery could have a cracking season and then walk for nothing next summer, just like Spittal did. The club will have a better idea as far as his plans are, and how open he would be to signing a new deal potentially. What I would say is, any player entering the last year of his contract who has any kind of financial value has to be considered fair game for sale if the right offer comes along.

They were great also , JAMC

Of course but Slattery has a year to go on his contract and no one has made a bid for him the entire time he's been with us. He's an asset to us and I would prefer to keep him. Particularly as we will get hopefully decent money for Lennon in the next few months and we won't need to be selling off other players. There's surely got to be some consideration as to whether selling or keeping Slattery is worth it. I'd say keep given his current form. We missed Spittal when he moved. I don't think we can afford to lose Miller and Slattery at the same time Just typing out loud - not aimed at anyone in particular

At the risk of sounding like that WWF wrestler from the 80's, everybody has a price.

He used to drum for JAMC. I prefer them to primal scream. Apparently when Depeche mode were at the height of their partying/addictions on the devotional tour - primal scream bailed out of their tour

One that has been played more at Fir Park in recent seasons True story , I went to see Primal Scream at the Motherwell Civic Centre in 2016 Bobby Gillespie (Celtic fan) said to the people who was there that the last time he was in Motherwell was for the football, Sure he said I won't mention the game but Motherwell won 2-1 No prizes for guessing the game , there was a few cheers and boos at the same time

I just texted my brother and asked him would he sell Slattery for 100k And he's not always been the biggest fan of Slattery. His response was ha ha God no. He said more like a million and no one will offer that but if he plays like he's been playing recently he will move on for a lot more money than we could pay for him after he sees out his contract. 100k =peanuts I personally wouldn't sell him for 500k but I'm a bit biased - no shame there either

Not as much as Slattery is worth to us. If someone offered us 100k for Slattery Id fire it in the bin Hands off Slattery 🤣 Im serious. We don't need money for Callum if we sell Lennon and that is that In fact even if we don't sell Lennon we are not getting rid of Slattery - that will be the very big hill I will die on

Undisclosed.

How much do you consider peanuts to be?

Nah, his eighties hairstyle and gimpy arms can stay where they are. He occasionally looked good against us, which isn't exactly high praise.

Zero minutes is the only safe approach. Let him give everyone a wave via a Zoom call from his couch.
