Then you are completely missing the point in either an intentional way, or an obtuse way - unless McGinn turned down an EPL offer to play for Hibs.

I thought I had read about financial trouble somewhere. Sure enough, I found this today:

Given his 20 goals in the prior season, I thought Derek Adams would do the same for us. He didn't reach 20 in total for all his seasons at Fir Park combined.

You develop by matching up against better players, not weaker ones. Case in point, Nicky Law when he went to League Two Rangers. Compare that to McGinn when he ended up at Villa rather than Celtic - now there is talk of a move to Man Utd. I'm not picking on Turnbull specifiically, but there is a general lack of ambition (or confidence) in Scottish players that is a symptom of our overall game. And it's been going on for years. Even players that go down to league one or two and scurry back home after a season because they can't hack it. Our squad would be pretty thin if English players didn't take the step up (and the journey in the opposite direction) to the Scottish Premiership.

The disappointing thing to me (outside of the surgery issues) is that another Scottish talent felt that Celtic was a better option than taking a shot at the EPL.

We sold Zak Jules down the river. I have no idea if he'll ever turn into a decent player, but he hadn't played a senior league game when we stuck him into the middle of an injury ravaged defence in a team that was struggling to play even dire football. The result of that was as inevitable as it was disastrous.

It's the 1st of July. 9 weeks before the transfer window closes (and if we are looking for loans from down south they never happen until later in the window) Robinson said last week they are still working on bringing in new players. But apart from that, let's start the panic! (Can't wait to see the posts after the first League Cup game when the team is about half way through their pre-season training).

I know about fidget spinners and the Avengers, but I can safely say the only Capalidi I know about is Peter. I'm still on fleek, though. Bye, Felicia.

If the deal had been struck with Norwich, there would have been 1 small footnote in the Scottish media - there would be no "tragedy" or "disaster" or any other sensationalist hyperbole. I'm sure it feels terrible when you're a 19 year old, but older level heads around him should be able to help him work through it.

From The Well Society website link - Your Questions Answered. The Basics What is the Well Society? The Well Society is Motherwell Football Club’s fan ownership group, (of course what ownership means is a longer discussion)

Although, if they are Society members, they are perfectly entitled to raise a specific issue and have it dicsussed and addressed if they garner sufficient support.

So close - but I have a 750ml bottle of my meds I'm taking right now!

You're obviously overlooking the experts that post on here who can make insightful diagnoses based on intuition alone.

I'm not a doctor, but I'd rather an injured player started training when he was medically fit again after 18 months than make him do full training while he was still injured. (I have no idea if he will make a recovery, but pretty sure he won't make a recovery if we make him train too soon).

Got an email from the society yesterday that said AGM summary would be sent out soon.

You need to request a copy of the annual accounts - they can email a copy. Apart from that, of course, there are regular meetings that you can go along to (if you live near enough), or email topics to be discussed. I guess there is a balance between too much and too little info to be put in the emails, but any time I've had a specific question I've never had a problem getting a fairly prompt response via email.

Domestically, there have been a lot of shenanigans about development fees - basically, nobody pays them in the US. I'm not sure they'd get away with that for an international move, though, as FIFA will have control over that.

According to MFC twitter, Carson started the 2nd half, but no idea if there were any more subs made after that.

I imagine the list of targets was drawn up long before the Turnbull shenanigans. There may have been a few more prospects added, but there should still be plenty to go after. The fact were playing last night shouldn't mean we forget the window is open until 1st September.

He should have gone to Norwich.

Leading us to a top 6 and cup winning run must be worth a couple of million

If he was on loan from us, would he not just be getting his contracted Motherwell wages (as a Motherwell employee).

I'm on your side here - I find it very annoying. I just doubt it's something we can change on our own.

Sounds like "the amateurs" running our club refused to be steamrollered by Celtic after all. (If you hear a chewing sound in the distance, it's the sound of 100 humble pies being devoured).

As I was saying...
