Being a 'Well fan, in a nutshell...

I hope so too, though we haven't had the best of luck with former Caley Thistle players in the past...

And everyone knows that. Which is even more reason not to get involved in anything stupid, you would hope.

The goal, via Twitter: https://twitter.com/MotherwellFC/status/952192100057141248/video/1 Won't go down as a classic...

Looking at the amount due in the PayPal email, it appears mine didn't go through last month either.

I just got the same this morning. Second time it's happened to me in the past year or so.

Yup, no refunds since 2015. You still got 30p up till then.

Indeed, you never know which players will make the transition well. But it sounds like it's something he's been keen to do for quite a while, so at least he has that going for him. (Cf. Faddy, the most unlikely assistant manager the club will likely have for a while.)

No big deal to me. I'm unlikely to hear or see any more about him now than the zero I did while he was at Brighton, except when we're playing Rangers and he's in the YouTube highlights (and we didn't get humped and/or robbed, otherwise I won't even bother watching those).

"Manage Ignore Prefs" on your user menu up in the the top left.

The difference is, we're not paid to be professional footballers, ambassadors for the sport, community role models etc.

He does until January. I expect to see at least one sub appearance on crutches.

I'd be amazed if we'd let him go without any add-ons, only real reason to sell him at all at this stage (unless they were offering us *very* silly money up front).

Indeed. Unless we end up getting relegated this year, which I doubt even given our recent performances, in the cold light of day it'll go down as a great bit of business by the club, hopefully with sell-on fees to come.

Why have undisclosed fees become so common

I remember Craggs saying himself before he was made captain that he didn't really relish the idea as he didn't consider himself that kind of player. I was always a bit surprised he accepted.

What's happened to all that strength-in-depth we supposedly have this year for a change?

You're right if they were all underpaid by the same amount over the course of a full year. More likely different folk were underpaid by different amounts over different periods of time though, I would guess (but I haven't seen the full report to see if it includes those specifics).

If pushed I'd certainly give them the benefit of the doubt, while still being a bit disappointed that a club I part-own was paying anyone the bare minimum they could.

Also a bit weird/sad that none of the 12 noticed and got it sorted at the time... if you're getting paid peanuts, every penny counts. (Unless they did notice, and MFC aren't being entirely truthful about not having done so until HMRC pointed it out.)

Have they built any gates yet?

I dunno why folk even listen. Other than what's reported on here, I have no idea what any managers or players other than ours have said to anyone for years.

Me. I apologise if that makes me a bad person.

Hope he's filming it on his phone rather than just texting folk who can't do anything about it then...
