    I think some on here have an unrealistic view of just how much a typical Motherwell player earns. We are now used to describing your average footballers wages in the 10's of thousands etc but for me I think that's fantasy land when discussing Motherwell. There may be 1 or 2 senior players on maybe 2 or 3k a week, but I believe the vast majority of the squad are on significantly lower wages than that so £600 a week may be nearer the truth.

     

     

    Boys at Airdrie are on more than 600quid a week

    Theo will be 25 at the start of next season and only about a third of the way through his career.
    According to transfer market website his value is €750k (roughly £646k). 
    Salary sport have his salary at £31200 - I’m assuming this is without bonuses. 
    So if they are to be believed £750k isn’t that bad a deal and would mean that for an outlay of probably £50k max, the club would get a return in the region of £700k. 
    Now I’m not saying we sell him but from a financial point of view £750k doesn’t look that bad. 
    Personally, like most of us I’d rather we offered and he accepted a new contract on better terms and continued to develop/improve with the view to selling him for more next summer but  to a certain extent that would be a gamble and I could understand selling him if he doesn’t want an extension or if SK and his staff think he can be replaced and have someone lined up. 
    No point in hanging on until the transfer window is about to close and then scrambling about. 

    600quid a week? I'd be surprised if that's all he is on

    From what I've picked up if the game get's postponed it will be moved to a neutral location on Sunday or potentially closed doors Monday . 

    I've got some empathy for Dundee here, not that many years ago we had similar issues with our pitch 

    It's been a long time since we've had any real pitch concerns, we invested heavily and still put a substantial chunk into the pitch...Dundees pitch is an absolute disaster and its absolutely their fault

    Simple question...

    Who is currently on the Executive Board?

    This is it for me...for all the debate, rumour and all the other stuff, the fact that we are unsure how many directors the club has and what power they actually weild is the most incredible bit for me

    Wouldn't touch that personally. Transfer fees are a huge part of our ongoing business model.

    Also sounds an awful lot like the bid that was discussed quite a few years ago, which was mentioned on Wednesday.

    To me, this seems like a sound idea...but only dependant on how large a return they would command from any players sales.

    It certainly does, and it’s happened to us a good few times this season with loan deals. Two recalled half way through their ‘season long deals’ another one cancelled and then re-loaned and now this one. Regardless of the reasons behind all of the above it doesn’t put our transfer business and in particular our loan deals this season in a good light at all. 

    Only if you love being dramatic and constantly want to find faults?

     

    Spencer and Biereth being recalled can be spun in a positive sense...they've come up here done well and their parent club wants them back to further their own wishes for the player.

     

    Absolutely nobody in the footballing world will reconsider sending us a player because a young guy fae Sheffield wanted back down the road for personal reasons

    Jili Buyabu has returned to his parent club for “personal reasons”.

    What the actual fuck is going on with our club and recruitment strategy?? This season alone we have our best player suddenly recalled in January then sent elsewhere on loan, we loan in Oli Shaw, cancel his loan then re-loan him and now this boy’s loan is cancelled less than a month in.

    Absolute clusterfuck.

    Give yersel peace...we have no idea why the young guy wants back home...could be any number of things and nothing to do with the Club.

     

    Arsenal recalled THEIR player and stuck him out to a bigger club...shit happens

    Now you know that's not true, cause by your own admission you didn't buy one during COVID, so tell the truth sir, I've had good info that you have been watching Juniors rather than the 'Well. You can't be on the committee of your local junior team but abandon them on a Saturday for the Mighty. As I said, all negative comments!!!!.. Nice that you replied though, positive comments from now on only please. 

    Ah yes, apologies, I didn't buy one in the covid season...but that apart I have. I've committed to going to Bellshill games for the remainder of the season despite my season ticket at Firry...and thus far it has lead to me missing 3 home matches...not been to any away matches at all this season.

    Not strange GazzyB, here is a guy who is a once in a wee while attender due to his love of his local junior team, whose every post is a total negative against either the club, manager or players. If he only posted a positive note now and again it would be good. He was a pish player right enough ;):D

     

    A fully paid up season ticket holder for the past 17seasons, that's missed 3 home matches this season...cannae argue with the pish player part, but it's been over 2 decades since I kicked a ball, so unsure of the relevance of that.

    I thought the atmosphere at the match was quite good today but it's a little disappointing that there was less than 4,000 Motherwell fans at home in a Scottish Cup tie against Aberdeen.

    I don't think all ticket affairs, make it easy for us to be honest

    Well done David, answer like a politician, forget about the shite points you make about players you have seen for 45 minutes. No wonder yir first team(Bellshill) went from promotion to relegation in a couple of weeks. As I said wouldn't know a player if yi slept wi one. Yir so full if hot air perhaps we should go back to the big tent instead of undersoil heating, you would save the club a fortune. Give players a chance!!!!, as I said you were pish!!!!!!. 

    :lol:

    Yes the right, the anonymity of guys like you who don't go to games now, but seem to think your options count. Never seen a positive post yet, your so opinionated on players just in the door. Just remember the level you played at. 

    I was at the game yesterday...as I said, gie me a shout next time you see me at Fir Park.

    You stick to getting Bellshill relegated, 45 mins on TV and he's poor, gies a break, the guy showed pace and was not adverse to having a shot at goal. As for Tierney a wee mini Mauchline, but as you say wouldn't get a game at The new Hill:lol:

    Ahh the anonymity of fans messageboards eh? I cannae be arsed picking you up on the errors in your post above, but next time you're at Fir Park and see me, then gie me a shout.

    Try Shields or Effords up top for more mobility. revert back to 4-3-3 or go 4-4-2 or 3-5-2. Although I’m not sure who is all available. I’d also give Amaluzer another try. I don’t think he’s been given as much of a chance as the likes of woolery

    I don't think Efford is going to be up to it...harsh to say, given I've only seem 45mins of him, and against Celtic too, but I'm not hanging my hopes on him. The wee Irish lad as well, he literally looks and plays like a wee boy.

    Why, as I said earlier if he's on the bench he should be fit to play, and given the news today that he's off on loan to QOS I assume that he is fit to play so not so much of a leap more of a tiny hop.

    There are a multitude of reasons why a young guy, making his way back from injury would be fit enough for the bench but not to start...we both know that
