Brilliant news on Turnbull, such a special talent. The fact he appears to be a genuine Motherwell fan adds to the enjoyment of watching him progress. Well done to all involved in getting this deal done. Hastie next hopefully.

I think it's a bit early to describe the signing of McCormack as 'bust'. Give the guy time, Robinson made it clear that he wasn't fully fit when he came in. There is still alot of games to be played this season. In regards to his last sub appearance against Hibs, Robinson put him on the left wing. Wasn't the brightest idea given his fitness situation. I'm not sure you are ever going to get great workrate out of him in that position. That isn't what you sign a 32 year old with that quality for. Overall, I'm hopeful there is still some business to be done before Thursday's deadline. In terms of goals we are still severely lacking. Obviously we will be hoping McCormack gets fit and can chip in but I still think we need another striking option. The only proven natural goalscorer we seem to have is Johnson, it's clear he can't play himself up front. Main has a proven track record of not being able to score goals. Sammon likewise minus a purple patch many moons ago. Scott is untested. I'd like to see us bring in another option upfront, something a bit different with an eye for goal would be nice. I'd also like another defender in still. We have a lot of players out of contract in the summer, it would be nice to get a couple of permanant deals in with that in mind. Also, we need to start getting guys tied down where possible.

Just in from a really shit day at work, but now I'm wandering about with a huge smile on my face, which is making the wife very suspicious for some reason. I really don't dare tell her it's because I fucking love David Turnbull!

Getting turnbull on a new deal is the best bit of business we could have done this month,i'm over the moon he's staying as the boy is a class act.

Sorry if I've missed something but I thought our media Guys would have had an interview with the new reserve coach up by now ?

Ask and it shall be delivered unto you.

kind of wondered when he signed, whether or not mccormack would end up like Naismith, not in terms of what he offered us, but if he was to come up here, eventually start playing and more importantly enjoying playing football again, we could see the loan extended til the end of his villa contract (2020) a whole load of ifs, buts and maybes in there but villa are obviously happy just to have him away from the club, maybe not keen on the wages for another full season right enough.

McCormack had better be no where near a start , unless he has miraculously delivered 4-5 weeks fitness improvement in a week , he was hiding on the pitch when subbed on last week , should never have got on in a match , that the players had bust a gut , was an insult to all that have put the effort in , if anything he deserved to be hooked back off, a terrible choice that night and weeks from deserving a start

'insiders' in fir park expect David turnbull to sign a two year extension.

Time for Jamie Scott to get his chance and after Grimshaws performance on Saturday I would put Tait back to right back and bring in Livingstone. Let the rebuild start on Saturday but with our youth players getting a chance to show what they can do especially at home

If yer maw had baws. If they teams above us weren't as good then we'd be higher.
