Would Scottish Power reimburse the club? Any lawyers here? and I don't mean barrack room lawyers.

BBC Scotland's Jonathan Sutherland at Firk Park"A hugely disappointing afternoon for both Motherwell and Dundee United. Trouble first became apparent when there was a brief power cut and smoke was seen coming from a corner of the ground. It turned out that the smoke was coming from a generator which had started as a result of a power cut that had hit the local area. "However it was impossible for the club to rely on generator power for the entire duration of the game and when it became clear it would take the power company some time to remedy the situation there was no choice left for Motherwell but to abandon the match."

Motherwell chief executive Leeann Dempster on BBC Radio Scotland: "We are frustrated. The problem is not in the stadium. There has been a major power failure in North Lanarkshire and we've been caught up in that. "We have generators which give us emergency power, to enable us to evacuate the stadium, but it's not enough to run a full match I'm afraid. "The information we've been getting was that they were doing some work to switches but it would be about 6pm. People will say we have form because of the Hibs game, but it's nothing to do with our prep. Supporters will get a ticket allowing them in to the next game."

BBC Scotland's Jonathan Sutherland: "Chorus of booing to announcement at Fir Park saying match between @MotherwellFC and @dundeeunitedfc has been abandoned." Jonathan was also at last season's match at Fir Park that was abandoned when a floodlight went on fire at half-time. He is now barred from the ground...

Yes good win

as a matter of interest how many fans were there?

The Daily Mail's assertion that Blackburn Rovers are considering replacing Steve Kean with none other than Henrik Larsson! The Swede has been at the helm of minnows Landskrona since hanging up his boots last year and his contract expires at the end of this season, meaning there would be little compensation to pay to bring him to England (there is a release clause of 65 grand, apparently), and that alone should endear him to Venky's, with the fact that he has shown a middling amount of managerial promise during his time at Landskrona being a happy bonus for employers who have never seemed too bothered about such trifles. Other names said to be in the frame for an Ewood Park circus ride are Ole Gunnar Solksjaer, Mick McCarthy, Stuart McCall, Tim Sherwood and Alex McLeish. Aye good one

A left winger? Thought we needed a CM?

The U20s play Hamilton Accies....7:00pm KO Fir Park Adults and Concessions: Season book holders or Well Society membership: £2 Standard: £3 Under 16: Season book holders or Well Society membership: £1 Standard: £2 Should get a good crowd at those prices eh?
