weeyin Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Delighted to see him pen a new deal. Nothing beats watching a winger in full flight, and he has the right product with his crosses too. As others have said, he can also put one of the sweetest strikes on a ball I have seen at Fir Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacol Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Colin Meldrum ? Yes I'm sure he followed McGhee the last time Jim Leighton got the sack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mio Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Excellent news, On his game he's one of the best players in the league, just hope Bara gets the best out him!! Happy with the Chalmers signing as well, I was speaking to someone in the know at Celtic and he was annoyed they let him go, thought he had a big future there. McDonald, Long, Laing and Lyle Taylor next please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 If we finished last year with the first choice 11 then we have 3 of the back four and all of the midfield 4 signed up. Someone for up front and we have the basis of a good team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but oddly enough we finished 11th with that team, but perhaps thats an oversimplification. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yabba's Turd Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Simply don't understand the Championship manager chat from people wanting Ainsworth through the middle, he's been playing football for 15/16 years but all of a sudden he's a striker? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Even in his latest interview he says he is an "out and out winger". Let's just sign someone to get on the end of his crosses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to agree. Even in his interview today he calls himself an out and out winger. Ainsworth strength is getting in behind full backs, put him in the middle you negate that. He can score goals and can strike a ball, hell yeah but not a centre forward for me. Big John Philiben was one of the best strikers of a ball I've ever seen but I wouldn't want him up front. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazilian Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 If Baraclough and Robinson can find what gets Ainsworth motivated, then this is a fantastic deal, hopefully he finds a couple off teamates he clicks with as well, nothing like fighting for your pals, he often looks isolated in training, warm ups, halftimes etc maybe that punch up lit a fire I'm just glad rangers didn't lure him away although that probably wan't going to happen after his goal celebrations Aye cause that stopped them signing Mo Johnston But Mo Johnston and even Larsson, Hartson,Nakamura,Thompson, Maloney, Sutton, Lambert, Thom, Collins never even got close to damaging them like : Erwin, McManus, Ainsworth, Johnson and Sutton did, and wee Lionel did it twice for good measure 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 There are a couple of players in the ladies team that could do us a turn. In the final just now against Rangers. Battered them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superward Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Jordan White might be an interesting one. Scored a lot of goals for a struggling Livingston team last season. I believe he is also quite a big lad in the Lee Erwin mold. Certainly has a bit of physical presence about him. Motherwell Times mentions White today. Could be a direct lift from here though as no sources. Just says Bara 'could be tempted'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tickle Pickle Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Youd think if Livi wanted a 30k release clause met, that maybe Motherwell could meet them in the middle and propose that they keep the gate receipts from all our friendlies were playing there... Assuming the rumour that we are playing all our friendlies there are true. Livi arent exactly in a position to knock back 15-20k when they potentially could get nothing.

Tickle Pickle Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 The council own the ground i believe, we will pay a lease for the matches. I dont know if Livi would see any benefit of us playing there. Hence why a deal could be struck for us to steal their big striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming we then in turn will be leasing it from Livingston for some sort of fee/agreement. Could be wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underboyleheating Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 There are a couple of players in the ladies team that could do us a turn. In the final just now against Rangers. Battered them. Mandy Burns is a superb player and similar to a few of girls in the current side she has played at a very high level throughout her footballing career. Her distribution of the ball is second to none and she is also a great finisher to boot. They are too good for the league they are currently in, however, last nights cup final opponents Rangers ran them close in the first half. We are an ageing side though and it will be interesting to see how they cope when these experienced older players decide to hang up their boots.

Suprawell Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Christ what next. I reckon this little fells is in with a chance, plus double the amount of legs, double the chance of a decent cross/pass/goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superward Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Baraclough in the press conference today saying he is looking to bring in another 5 or 6 to give us a first team squad of c 20 players. Still speaking to Skippy. Wouldn't rule out bringing back Laing or Long. So for me that shopping list needs to be - Goalie, Centre half or 2, Couple of strikers and maybe a midfielder for cover. That would give us a couple of players in each position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
