Ok. Can you quote the bit where anyone says anything about selling them majority shareholding, or is that just your personal take on what he meant?
He clearly had the intent on having an investor take a majority shareholding otherwise there would have been no straw poll of Well Society members to ask that very question.
It is frog in the boiling pot trick.

Like this. That is not what the poll asked. But now people think the Well Society has already shown that it is putting it majority share of the club up for sale.

Here is a question then.
If the Well Society doesn't have a majority on the board. Can the board issue new shares and sell them to an investor without the approval of the Well Society?

Sooo a knight hood for Dan Casey for scoring the winner at Ibrox in order?
He would be happier with a crate of guinness

Yaas.
Superb spirit. Everyone worked their arses off and grabbing the lead after conceding the equaliser., no words.

Todays result just typifies for me why I have always felt the society model would only work for so long
when les Hutcheson extended the deadline time and time again for us to hit the min numbers required to take control the writing was on the wall for me
not saying the society doesn’t have a place but a mix of private and fan ownership is the perfect model for me
We already have a mixture of Private and Fan ownership.
Around 30% of the club is own outside of the Well Society.
If the numbers going around are true then it is way off the value of the club.

People had the option to vote and some clearly didn't take it. I personally don't think that should make the outcome of the vote less valid.
Do you think the Well Society did a good job of letting people know there was a vote and what it was about?
Is an email really the best they can do to engage members? They have an opportunity at every home game to engage with people face to face. Turnout is low because there was no effort put into getting people to vote.

David Turnbull is off to Cardiff, not sure if it is a loan or for a fee. If a fee do we get anything from that?
He is going for less than Celtic paid us so no sell on money.

Spittal is horrific at crossing a dead ball. Has no confidence of striking the ball with power and pace which is what you need to score goals.
There must be someone in the squad who can hit a corner with conviction rather than just tossing it up.

Anyone want a look at Scott McDonald's goals record before signing for us...
Scott McDonald was 20 when he signed

Ojamaa didn't score many goals before he joined but made a positive contribution when he was with us.
Not saying Bair will provide similar. But if he does sign I hope he proves me wrong.
Ojamaa was 20 when he signed with us. Bair is going to be 24 in a month.
He is well beyond the development part of his career. At this point he is who he is. And it isn't good enough to be playing for anyone in the Premiership. Signing him is throwing money down the drain. Filling out the squad with guys who aren't up to the standard has been a problem at Fir Park for years.

I can’t be arsed checking but how many goals did KVV score before and after SK arrival? perhaps he has a knack for getting the best out of players? I really don’t know but just a thought.
KVV had hit double figures for goals regularly throughout his career. Theo Bair hasn't scored 10 goals in his career.
Bair was one of the least effective strikers in the league. He has a single goal in his whole time with St Johnstone. I'm ok with picking up guys who have had a down season but they need to have shown something they can bounce back to. Bair has never shown it at any point and he should not even be in consideration.

Was his agent saying that last year when he was farmed out to Cove?
Yes.
There is the Record reporting he was on the radar of Luton and Sheffield Utd last March.
QuoteThe teenager has already made his Motherwell debut and Steelmen boss Graham Alexander plans to give him his first-team chance next season,
Instead we signed another right back and punted him out on laon again.

My point had nothing to do with Tierney.
You are responding to someone saying Cornelius should start ahead of Tierney.
Why do that if your point had nothing to do with Tierney?

I don't see what Cornelius has done , becoming a better player by not playing
What has Tienrney done to keep his place.
Cornelius was subbed when he had the lead at Kilmarnock. Then lost his place because we rinsed a shite Morton side in the league cup. The goal today was the first time we have scored with Tierney on the park this season.
-
Spittal for me.
only went 60 minutes but put in a great effort. Scored one, should have had two with KVV tidying up his effort off the bar. Much more effective today on the left than as part of the central midfield.

No replacement for Tony Watt. No replacement for Woolery.
When we were playing well last season they were 2 of 3 forwards. We haven't adequately replaced them. We are a worse team than started last season. Relegation form after Christmas looks set to continue unless we go out and get a real forward.

The Well boys need to have a look at themseleves. Shite plastic flags we have had at game before.
Get them to fuck, no one wants a shitey flag.
i assume most of the donations went up their nose

Have the club said anything about the feedback received from their quick email about VAR and how they voted and why?

Trevor Carson with a wonderful save tonight
Secured a win to lift Derek Adams' Morecambe (formerly robinson's) out of the relegation zone.

We need a winger also, someone that will take on players and actually put a cross in. I thought hylton was bad but jeez woolery is running him close. I wonder if 4 4 2 is answer going forward
No we need the comlete opposite. We need another forward who will hold the middle of the park.
Woolery, Roberts and Shields all want to go wide to find space. And aren't as determined to get in the box.
We do need more on the wngs but that is because we are playing 2 fullbacks that cannot cross a ball.

New Investment Options

The £3m "loss" is not an ongoing situation.
Money was given during Covid as an interest free loan and the club chose to spend some of that money on changes to the park and hunter stand. That is a one time expense. That was not related to any safety certificate. The main stand has had some issues in the past that needed addressing but i believe that is now sorted and not a large on going cost.
So your point about sustainability is completely wide of the mark.
