  1. As far as Porter goes, it's perhaps unlikely that he wouldn't come back to us but it's not completely out of the question I think.

     

    If he has no club at present, he may think of Motherwell as an opportunity to put himself back on the map. He's already played here so he knows what the script is.

  2. Eremenko did say he was desperate to stay in scotland and wanted either of the old firm to buy him

    I would think he has more prospect of actually playing at Rangers. Celtics midfield is pretty packed already.

     

    Wouldn't mind seeing us going for McCourt if he was avilable on loan! The chant is already there for the taking of "Paddy McCourts steelmen army" :lol:

  3. My only issue is that he's no better that Sutton and I always think players we sign should be better than the player they replace, mind you Motherwell can't afford to do that all the time (we just have to develop them ourselves)

    I agree that we should replace players that we choose to move on with someone better, but Sutton left because he was offered a better deal by a bigger club, so I don't think it applies here.

     

    Higdon is exactly the kind of striker that we need. Hopefully he can do a job for us next season.

  4. Glad to see Hutchinson sign on again with the club. He's obviously impressed with the plans McCall has for taking the club forward.

     

    I don't take any account of anything you write on here since reading your drivel around the time of the Celtic Remembrance Day protest.

    :cry:

  5. "Why Aye Man"

     

    Expect a contract extension for an integral member of our defence .... announcement in about 20 mins.

    Leaking out info before the official site makes the announcement?

     

    Have you never read Spider-Man? "With great power comes great responsibility" :evilgrin:

  6. With the announcement of our first pre-season game I figured I'd throw up a thread for those of us desperate enough to want to discuss our games against lower league opposition this summer.

     

    Thus far, we have games with the following sides confirmed;

     

    Dumbarton (away) - July 9th

     

    One of Motherwell’s first pre-season games of the 2011/2012 season will be at Dumbarton’s Strathclyde Homes Stadium.

     

    The game, arranged as part of the deal that will see young Nicky Devlin join up at Fir Park for next season, will take place on Saturday July 9th.

     

    A combination of first-team players and U19 prospects will play in the match with former Sons loans Ross Forbes and Jordan Halsman likely to feature.

     

    Further information on kick-off times and ticketing arrangements will be confirmed soon.

    I know it's pretty sad, but I'm actually looking forward to going to the game. I miss football already :cry:

  7. Surprised we are not trying to keep Ross or Jeffers.

     

    I would have loved to seen Jeffers after pre season training.

     

    guess McCall has a few players up his sleeve, he has done ok so far.

    I'm guessing that a deal would have been struck with Jeffers if he wanted to hang around?

  8. I think that players like Burke would look on our record of taking players on and helping them to kick start their career and possibly decide that a drop in wages for a year may be worth it.

     

    Saying that, I won't be holding my breath on that one.

  9. Motherwell didn't try hard to keep me seems to fly in the face of what we were told from the club !

    Does it matter?

     

    He stated that he asked for a new contract at the start of the season, and just after Christmas. It wasn't offered.

     

    That's the risk you run.

  10. With regards to Craigan, it's true that we need someone to replace him, but the answer isn't to get rid of him then start looking around.

     

    We need to bring someone in this summer who can come in and replace him during next season gradually. After that happens we'll hopefully see Craigan given some sort of coaching role at the club if he wants it. The guy has earned it.

  11. Seriously mate the place is run by amateurs, 20 minutes to serve one person, not answering calls, don't send out renewal forms etc.etc.etc it's a joke. Stick up for them all you want but they really have to tackle this problem because some people just can't be arsed with it, they should be going out of there way to help us not the other way round.

    You can add my name to the list of people who have been served in a timely manner and who has no complaint about the customer service.

     

    Maybe your phone has been cut aff? Ye paid yer bill? :evilgrin:

  12. The Aberdeen Evening Express from today is saying the same thing as the Wishaw Press I think;

     

     

    Motherwell boss Stuart McCall believes Steve Jennings will snub Aberdeen FC to stay at Fir Park.

     

    Aberdeen FC boss Craig Brown is an admirer of the 26-year-old midfielder, who is out of contract this summer.

     

    He said: “They can afford to offer him more money than we could, but his family is settled here and he might not fancy moving so far north.”
