Red card in a friendly isn't very sporting.

He also got red carded.

I don't mind the new kit tbh

Welcome to the Forum Skips.

One of my favourites too.

My mum used to teach at Knowetop primary and there were kids that couldn't afford to go on a residential week. One of her kids who didn't go did a project on Motherwell and sent it to Butcher and he wrote the kid a really nice letter back. My mum was really touched by that. In fact I'm sure he offered the kids who couldn't go an opportunity to meet the players. Like. I'm Motherwell to my bones but if it were someone connected to the old firm it wouldn't bother me

Brodie Spencer as Norn Irn beat the mighty Iceland 1-0.

Absolutely 100 percent I would prefer any manager who has no history to either of the Glasgow clubs . But fully would be supportive to any who have as we never know what could happen Terry Butcher was one of my favourites and I have said it before. For anyone with any doubt he took on the role when we were at our lowest. After the 2002-2003 season when we should have been relegated he done great for us The one time I remember when fans were all getting behind us, was like an Us vs the rest of Scottish football mentality at that time

Let's start a wild rumour and say that it's Rudi Vata being interviewed. See what happens.

There isn't going to be a genuine potential candidate. Motherwell won't give any hints until the candidate is announced. It's all going to be speculation

Tough crowd 😂😂😂

I can't see any teams up here wanting adams after his outburst before he left county and that's not taking into account that he's a shite manager to start with.

Derek Adams - the Donald Trump of Scottish Fitba, Couldn't even sort a wall.

No

I don't think Brown will be our manager - but it honestly wouldn't bother me if he was appointed. All that matters is that the person appointed can do the job. Like - we had Terry Butcher ex Rangers player and he did OK. What the media think doesn't bother me

Scott Brown, Robbie Neilson Fleetwood Mac and Derek Adams ffs, we really need a genuine potential candidate to discuss before this thread gets any worse.

If you read my other posts, you will see that I agree. Id rather have neither. My argument was specifically in relation to Neilson v Brown.

Not saying I want him....just 2 and 2 making 5

Given Morecambe finished 24th from 24 and lost their League status, I imagine the new position is leaning on the counter at the job centre.

The new kit? It's okay given the way the club has messed about with it over the years. At least there are no white shorts. I don't like the pin stripes and I HATE the fact the chest band only goes half way round. But at least it doesn't look like a Galatasaray training top like last year's effort. For me, the best strips in my lifetime were the 1994-96 top, the 2010-11 top and the 2023-24 top. Primarily because the chest band went all the way round but the relative, traditional simplicity of them also helped. The chest band only the front only looks half-assed and janky, too much "frippery" takes away from what is a strong traditional look and white shorts just look daft. White shorts were never "traditional". They were just the only colour available back in the day unless you used black. In the 30s there was a rule the home team HAD to wear white shorts, while the away team HAD to wear black. The advent of coloured shorts was a godsend for clubs like Motherwell with more original colours. When I grew up in the 70s, I didn't know Motherwell had a unique, traditional strip of their own. I wondered why our strip continually changed while others maintained their own unique look. I was thrilled to discover we had the amber top with claret chest band as a distinctive traditional strip. It should be one of the most distinctive, attractive and recognisable tops in football. Instead it is mucked about with and turned into some of the most hideous crimes against football fashion ever committed. Harrumph!

On Twitter or X whatever it's called. Derek Adams has left Morecambe as has new position lined up???

One rumour I did hear recently is our chairman has been in Albania speaking to a potential candidate No idea if it is true or not but if so maybe explains the silence about the next guy

If we're looking for adventure, I'd rather we looked overseas. The idea of having Brown, who will be under the media spotlight as a "former Celtic man" throughout his tenure with us isn't really the kind of adventure I want. He'll never be "Scott Brown, Motherwell manager," he'll always be "Scott Brown, former Celtic player and scourge of Rangers." If we're looking at hiring a Scottish manager, I'd choose Neilson over Brown.

I take your point. But where's the adventure in that?
