For me we dodged a bullet with KVV, he's been shit at Groningen since he left in the summer, got his deal on past glories which he is very unlikely to repeat, but fair play to him for cashing in. This window has highlighted just how skint we are, we get the players we can afford, ie those on realistic wages or favorable loan deals, plus is coming to play in the Shire an attractive option for some. My main concern is that in 5 months time we will go through this whole nonsense again with another rebuild , we need stability and time to build a team, but only time will tell if we learn from previous mistakes and for me I don't think the current structure/ governance etc at the club is up to the challenge.

From the BBC gossip page today, so it looks like they are up for selling him, there's obviously been a fallout there between KVV and the club. So if there's a transfer fee involved, that's us fecked. Groningen are willing to listen to offers for 32-year-old former Motherwell striker Kevin van Veen. (RTV Noord)

They must be the most delusional club in the country outwith the ugly sisters, they all still think its the mid 80's up there and they are a good side. They deserve all they get.

Over 100 appearances and 29 goals at Killie , 7 goals at St Mirren and 4 so far at RC, he's worked out a damm site better than some of the alleged strikers we've recently had and still have. But you stick to whatever agenda suits you, don't let facts get in the way.

To be fair If we had a choice of players for starting strikers probably yes but as we are reliant on Bair a player of Brophy's experience would be welcomed, he's a step up in quality from the likes of Wilkinson, Obika and Shaw.

There are a few on here who conveniently forget that fact and think we should be going for players way above our price range.

Why is it embarrassing?

He was offal

Bottom half championship team I thought he might do a bit better than that, but who knows might be a very lucrative offer and guaranteed game time, there needs to be some incentive to move to Wales.

You get all the best bargins last minute 🤣

Slovenian u21 at one point Where are you hearing that rumour?

Very unfortunate for Montgomery but having played for 2 clubs is irrelevant, he was never getting into the Celtic team anyway and with his injury he's not going to be fit till May at the earliest so his season is done. He's a Celtic player so get him back to them to look after and off our wage bill we've enough injured players of our own to deal with.

He's out for 3 months Apparently according to this report https://www.thenational.scot/sport/24076895.adam-montgomery-suffers-brutal-injury-blow-motherwell-loan/

Live on council telly, the weather will be shite as usual, and the tickets will no doubt not be reduced, add in travel hassle/ cost , aye live games on council telly really encourage people to go to games. The away support will be OK but nowhere near as good if the game was not on the BBC.

Why don't you call a Trolls meeting with Yodo, and MJC a put together a list of any players you all find acceptable and ok to sign, that would save you labelling every player linked with Motherwell as pish.

As is every game we play, the potential to lose is always there. If we start with the right attitude, press them high from the start and move the ball a lot quicker than we did against Alloa we will get the required result. Hopefully we have another couple of players in place by then to give us more of a goal threat.

Morton away, pity we never got a home tie but it's a decent draw, they are well off the pace in the championship

No it wasn't he's secured his future financially, Euro experience, scored a fes goals, winning medals etc all at a young age, and it's guaranteed that when he leaves Celtic he'll leave,a much better player than when he joined them.

Bair is brutal, he has no positionional sense at all, nothing sticks to him so he was unable to hold the ball up and play others in. He ran about like a headless chicken and contributed feck all game, as was mentioned earlier on the few occasions when we got the ball into the box he was nowhere to be seen, a Biereth or a KVV would have probably scored. Yes he's scored a few goals in recent weeks but the simple fact is he never was and never will be premiership level and its a damming indictment of the problems we have that he was the first choice striker yesterday. Unless SK gets a couple of strikers in this window we are heading for trouble as I can't see where our goals will come from.

Gent for me, best player on the park today, special mention for Montgomery he also had a great game on his debut.

Biereth is allegedly heading to Sturm Graz, maybe Max Johnson tipped them off of his abilities.

Correct, always big calls on here for us to sign, experienced players, know Scottish football etc etc so thats one confirmed with hopefully a few more to follow. A good Experienced goal scorer or whatever that translates to on Motherwell's budget next please.

Yes investment in developing our own players is great in principle but it's also a risky strategy as from an academy squad of say 15 you might only get 1 maybe 2 that will step up to the 1st team. You can't guarantee a Johnson, Miller or Turnbull every year so no saleable assets are a distinct possibility.

So is MJC really your pal ?
