Which makes the thread pretty pointless does it not unless it’s a debate on another club showing interest in him

An interesting signing

I actually find the Macron stuff ok, it’s pretty well made, purchased this season away top.

Absolutely

I would be happy with that, think he may go for around £2m thought in the very near future and as above we could even have seen him play his last game for us.

Fair enough, I thought he generally played at centre half or left back. Think I read somewhere he has the best heading stats in the division.

Yep Gallagher is left sided, I guess we have the option of moving Tait over to the right and playing him on the left but I assume he’s been signed to play as a centre half, do Hartley or Maguire have a part to play next season ? not sure. A direct replacement for Gorrin is going to be very difficult, as you say he ticked all the boxes, bringing in another player with his all round ability will be next to impossible at our spending level short of getting lucky with an unknown again. We need two strikers who can put the ball in the net, we can’t just rely on Turnbull.

I just hope we can retain him until January, I had thought we may get another season out of him but he’s improving so quickly that someone is surely going to come in with a big offer this summer. Ok Scottish football is not rated down south but he has to be the stand out player up here now.

Quite funny listening to super scoreboard on the way home. A Rangers fan phoned in stating that signing the best player from the likes of Motherwell was not good enough. He had to be informed they had not actually signed the best Motherwell player. Some of these old firm fans seem to be absolutely clueless when it comes to their knowledge of Scottish football. It’s hardly as though Turnbull is flying under the radar these days.

I like to give everyone a chance if possible. But yes our highest points total in the last five years, lots of young players blooded into the first team squad, the debt still dropping, season tickets sales at an all time high, a great team of people at all levels of the club, the Well Society going from strength to strength, and a great set of supporters who love the club.

I think the right decision for both players and the club.

I feel yodo you tend to make decisions on players very quickly, some players need longer than others to bed in, injuries also play a part in that. Donnelly is clearly rated by many in the know or he would not be picking up international caps. I use Gorrin as an example because he was also written off by many ( can’t remember if you were one of them)

Has Dunn ever really changes though ? His strengths are his speed and physicality, his weaknesses his passing ability ( although he has improved) and his timing and awareness.

Gillespie for me.

I still there is a decent player in Donnelly and feel he could actually come good the same way Gorrin did if everyone is patient enough. Certainly some misplayed passes today but also some positive signs.
