I know who I would give a present....

Something tells me Craigan and Reynolds won't do, and even Saunders or Hutchison coming into centre back would still be very risky. Could get the Great Khali from WWE!!

Just like we had a temporary sponsor, do you think we could find a GIANT defender for the 2 games against the Norwegians to counter their giant? Was thinking Lee Wilkie, but doubt he would be fit and he is only 6'4, while the Norwegian is 6'8. Any Tall defenders available for a short deal you can think of???

Scooter - Stuck On Replay stuck on you got this feeling down deep in my soul that we just cant lose cos we're Motherwell could be developed more

I think I have PM'd you. Keep me posted of your plans, I'm trying to talk my mate into going and have got wed,thurs,fri off work as it stands.

I don't see any issue with the Humphrey transfer. While there is a legal issue pending with the Coke signing, it would probably be wise not to play him in any games until it is all settled. Last thing we want is to get kicked out the Europa for fielding an unauthorised player...I'm pretty sure the Scottish Cup has come up with situations like this from time to time.

for me it's "go for the jugular from the kick-off and try and blow them oot the water"

Coke Column

2-0, Sutton and Saunders (header from set piece)

Can't add a league and cup vote together. would be good to split

nice Wiki update. "Future Europa League Winners" and "a following of over 20,000 away fans at each match last season" will really have some people taking notice. I'd laugh if any the news agencies catch this and use it in their reports!!!

stuart my final word on this ok and im done. Im just out work and there was nothing on official site before I left and got it on the tv when I got in. I thought the moderators were supposed to be stopping multiple Threads with same topic, so I never read the post by burrows. He should know better and be posting in the same thread (In's and Out's). anyway, can't wait to see all these new players piece together, so roll on next set of games

what is your problem? I hardly post because of the same sarcastic smart arsed answer you gave to my post. don't call me out when you are the one kicking it off

another aggrieved Club in the English leagues lol at last the Bosman rule is working for us after so many years of the reverse

photo up on the official site, so seems to me like he is defintely here regardless of what Northampton are claiming. Leave it to the agents / lawyers if any issue

good for you bawbag

Latest news on Sky Sports is we have just signed Giles Coke on a years deal.

I think Darren would benefit from a season long loan to first division or even english league. I hardly think he is breaking the bank in terms of wages. His development has been hampered by playing 10mins every few games. He needs 20-30 games with a full 90mins before he can make an honest impact here. Anyway, since Optimus Prime got the team sheet...can someone find out more about "Gupwell" please?

Poor game if I'm honest. Bathgate missed 3 sitters. I think Darren Smith and Archdeacon (both played full game) are way ahead of the rest and need first team action to aid development. Didn't notice any trialists or either the new signings. Motherwell XI 1. GK - had a wee fumble with a shot, but not tested. bit small. 2. right back, Mark, decent distribution and done well. played full game 3. ross mckinnon played first half only, at left back - didn't encourage me. 4. looked overweight, made a mess of a few things and doesn't attack headers or clean up. 5. won everthing in the air at the back and looked pretty good. Don't know who he was, but think he was getting called 'guppy'? played full game 6. first half only. Can't remember much apart from a few runs and one good cross 7. Darren Smith - plenty energy, pinged a few good crosses, linked up well, good game 8. Meechan - first half only, done well enough but wanted a bit more since he had been near first team last year 9. Tall skinny striker, effort was there, but nothing special up the sleeve 10. Attacking midfielder, decent height and mobility, only played first half but thought he comfortable linking up play etc 11. Archdeacon - best on show in the first half, faded in the second half, but decent control and confidence. Interested in seeing him play inn the spl Subs: couple of boys who came into the midfield 2nd half looked like they are just out the 17s, so were bit smaller and lightweight, but all done ok. The defender dario quinn has some good height for central defence (not as good as no. 5)
