Slightly worried about the midfield with lasley missing but I think McGhee will have a plan. Hopefully that plan still has Johnson on the left because I think he will be able to hurt them down that side.

As he is 23 do we need to pay compensation ? ( assuming they offered the contract early enough)

Quite happy with this. See McGhee was saying that they will have to do a bit of wheeling and dealing to get the midfielder he wants. Hopefully he's able to shift some players and get the guy he wants in.

I think Erwin would add to our current squad but wouldn't be too keen on a loan move for him

Is it a random draw following the group stages? For example could we be drawn with rangers in the next round ( assuming we both qualify from the group).

Is law injured ?

Turns 21 in July Edit: hadn't seen the post above apologies

1-0 ainsworth

Was thinking that myself two really good finishes

I see from the club's twitter that the majority of the under 20s have taken ill and the game against celtic has had to be postponed. Hopefully none of the first team have been affected !

Chuffed with that thought the first half was relatively even, although the bt pundits felt Dundee United had the better of it. McDonald was extremely lucky not to get a red card and I wouldn't be surprised to see him getting a game or two ban now when they have a look at it. Hopefully lasley and Pearson are ok , they didn't seem too bad so fingers crossed!

Realised this morning if we win this we're closer to third than to bottom !

This could be quite a tough game for us. Hope we can get at least a draw from it. Heading along, however, and I haven't seen us lose in yonks as I don't get the chance to see us much. 2-1 Motherwell

Delighted with that. Watching the highlights we look like we should've won by more. Credit to the fans who turned up sounded like you were in good voice throughout.

Watched scougall when he first went down, as I watching how Murphy was doing, and I was very impressed. would be happy if we could manage to get him

I wonder if Craig Reid will impact who we play in the middle. St Mirren supporting mate said that he was pretty solid for them, I know the championship is a weaker league but he might be able to be a stop gap in midfield or law moving back into midfield and him into defence until we can bring someone else in. Alternatively, watt could come in at right back with law in midfield. Law may fair better playing beside two cms. Edit: I know how much law struggled when he played there at first but playing with the confidence he is right now and with more experience in the league he might be able to cope.

Thanks , hopefully it's on!

Decided last night I'd fancy going through to this , does anyone know the deal with tickets ? Last away game I tried to go to was hearts and I didn't get in because I assumed i would be able to just turn up. Hoping for a win , would take a draw though, Dundee United seem to have been unlucky the past couple of weeks. Hopefully that continues this week! 1-0 Moult

Haven't been to a game in awhile because I play rugby on a Saturday , but just going by the highlights law looks a different player. Long may it continue .

@MotherwellFC: Motherwell FC is today delighted to confirm the appointment of Mark McGhee as manager: http://t.co/v6Wyaspr6phttp://t.co/hOR1mXQfe4 Confirmed Edit: just seen had been confirmed on here awhile ago haha

@MotherwellFC: Motherwell: Ripley, Grimshaw, McManus, Johnson, Chalmers, Kennedy, Robinson, Law, Leitch, Thomas, Taylor #GMFCvMFC @MotherwellFC: Motherwell subs: Samson, Laing, Ainsworth, Lasley, Clarkson, Moult, McDonald #GMFCvMFC

Kind of glad we didn't get into the ground now , all the stands were sold out !

Laing looked top notch today, was gutted for him when I learned that he'd scored the own goal

Purely going by highlights , so correct me if I'm wrong, but it did seem that they were playing a similar style to the first team which can only be a good thing.
