Wouldn't by his named replica strip that's for sure.

How's his maw,by the way.

11 points.

Yup all about opinions and I'm a big Stama fan. Providing he stays fit 15+ goals this season. Watch this space.

If the story of him flying abroad yesterday are true then I’d suspect today would have been a look around the club and it’s facilities and talking to the manager today with possibly a medical and scans over today and tomorrow. If all is true and everything goes well then I’d expect something tomorrow or Friday.

Ba boom

Nae need to get personal...

Simpson-Pusey too

Some online chat that this might be one of the Man city boys we are trying to bring in on loan, a defensive midfielder, the replacement for Miller maybe?

Without being specific about Bair, we do have a habit of bringing players back to the club. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.. There have been suggestions on here that it's lazy or unimaginative recruitment. But if (and this hasn't always been the case when we've done it) it's a type of player we need, I can see why it might be a thing that appeals to the club. Not for sentimental reasons either. If someone has been at the club before, you know what kind of personality you're bringing into the group. They know the area, you don't need to worry about them settling in. You know they're not coming expecting state of the art training facilities As I said, I'm not advocating for the return of Bair. But there are sometimes advantages of signing a former player...

Thought we might have seen something about Miller today.

Which one? There were two. He would have got a better view our Ap Stam's claim than that of his own player's.

Maswanhise with all respect is a winger. Stamatelopoulos? Cmon .we r hoping he will be good but other than a great strike against hibs he has not shown much. Even when bair wasn't scoring he was creating space for others. All about opinions but for me I think he would fit in perfectly

Much improvement from Kettlewells so far. Some good signs that we are trying to play passing football. 68 percent possession. Was impressed with Longello and Watt. TW just gets better. Seethe/ anger on Imrie's face at the penalty decision and full time, priceless!

For Watt, Slattery and Fadinger what is required is one to shave his head and the other to dye their hair blonde as I couldn't work out who was who for large chunks of the match 🤪🤪

Many of us didn’t, and that’s why we turned on him over a year before he finally buggered off, lashing out like a victim on his way out.

Yet scottish teams with 11 Scottish players used to win European competitions with these methods...times moved on but at the end of the day ,it usually comes down to how good the players are

I am looking forward to this. Hopefully both sides take it seriously enough for it to be a good test and not just a training exercise.

Sure but he did well in spl so he may do again, as others pointed out french football is a few levels up.

If you found SK's 15 match run without a win entertaining then more power to you.

I don't subscribe to this. I certainly go to the football to be entertained. Unfortunately, many of the most recent years have delivered very little entertainment. I did not enjoy watching the Kettlewell era, even when we were winning. I am very happy to see a different approach which, in my view will be very much more entertaining than what has been served up in recent years.

I don't see this as a free hit. This is an opportunity, very early in the season, to see how the team are shaping up for the marathon that is the league. I expect us to be brave on the ball and have much more of the game than we've had in previous meetings. I expect us to be in their faces from start to finish. I expect us to perform well and make a statement to the league that Motherwell will be a force this season. Will we win? My heart says that we will, but my head says probably not, but I don't expect us to lose with a whimper.

If you want to be entertained go to the theatre, cinema etc not to a football match. What would you class as entertaining football, scoring 4 or 5 goals every game, Barcelona style tipy tappy boring as feck 59 pass moves, blood and snotters hoofball with everyone chasing the ball etc. If your team wins the vast majority of fans go home happy, the game might have been a total shitfest but if it results in 3 points nobody gives a feck. Supporting a team like Motherwell is a tough ask, we don't win every week, win a trophy every year, compete in the fantasy world that is the Euro group stages etc. But having watched Motherwell since 1970, winning a league title, Scottish cup, various Euro adventures, champions league and being a Premiership team for our 40th year now its gave me a lot of entertainment and great memories that greatly outnumber the bad experiences so I think we do OK.

For me Theo was a one season wonder. No way that I'd want to take him back. It is a brave new footballing world that we face this season, we should not be considering the return of previous players that worked in a different system.
