Clackscat Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 £400k for heneghan. Prob about right Not spectacular but a healthy profit on what we put out on him. Now use a bit to improve moultys contract , give him a £750k buy out and a small "wedge" on transfer completion to sweeten the deal and encourage him to sign a 2yr deal Simples I had slightly different figures but in principle that was what I was thinking Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dossertillidie Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Something about Hartley makes me think he looks like a nutter! Which I'm fine with!! Haha I thought the same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobey_Dosser Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 A fantastic day of business for Motherwell. Raked in a hefty sum in transfer fees and we've managed to recruit 2 experienced players that the manager knows well and seem a perfect fit for the club (this time last year McGhee was googling Luka Belic). Moult signing an improved contract offer would be the icing on the cake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonicg Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Interested to know why Hartley is surplus to requirements at Blackpool after only just signing in Pre season. He seems to have had a good first half of season last year at Bristol Rovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEWELL Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Yes fab news that we've got the 2 players we were after. A Great window for us. Now we might have a decent season. Maybe one that I won't rant so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The African Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hopefully the guys coming in will both add something to the squad. I am certainly happy to have some more experience at centre half, even if I am not generally a fan of loan signings. I do think that we did have to sell someone and Heneghan was probably at the height of his value. The club seemed to hang on for a bid that met their valuation, which also is nice to see. There is no reason why the club cannot now sit down with Moult and his representatives and work out a deal which is good for both sides. If he stays healthy, he is away next year anyway. Why not get paid an extra grand a week and just concentrate on his football? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mintymac Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Great day of business today . Taken in approx 1M and squad not been weakened . Liked Grimshaw first time round and centre half in with experience . Much better balance to squad this season and competition for places all over the park . That keeps players on there toes . Overall very contented . Still think best bit of business was managing to hold our nerve re Moult . Losing his goals would have undermined a lot of the good business we have done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goggles & Flippers Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Serious competition for places, now the headache is finding our best players and the system to get the most. Don't envy Robinson. Maybe some on here who have wet dreams hankering back to that batshit crazy Gannon may transfer the "got an eye for a player" moniker across. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellowell Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Just looked at STV football and they have all the ins and outs this transfer window and we have 14 in and 17 out Wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Also I know some will disagree but credit to Baraclough. Ok it didn't go well results wise but he signed Marv and look at how much cash that has earned us. And will always be grateful for the play off victory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewarkfanclub Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Good window for the club. Think the squad is in good shape going forward and certainly much stronger than last year. If we can keep everyone fit and healthy and settle on a formation / style of play that allows everyone to gel we could be in for a decent season. Not sure if Louis will be minded to sign an extension but hopefully we have some spare cash to improve the one on the table and give him something to think about.

Lukemfc1 Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Fairly pleased with our dealings. I think financially we have done amazing and the club need to take plaudits for the Johnson deal and holding out for a fair amount for Heneghan. Whilst I want the club to be financially strong I care far more about what we see on the pitch. Grimshaw for me was a decent player first time round, think he has been hyped up to be a bit more than he was. He will be a bench player. Hartley looks like a decent capture albeit it a loan, boy has some decent experience. I would have really liked some Scottish boys signed as it seems to be a nearly fully English team now but just personal preference really. I'm hoping this boy Petravicius can step up as still think we lack a bit of an attacking threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purestate Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 His wiki page has been updated already Peter Hartley (born 3 April 1988) is an English professional footballer who plays as a defender for Scottish Premiership club Motherwell on loan from Blackpool.
