Honesty. I am so sick of seeing Kettlewell being slagged off for nothing. We are safe. That's the main thing..
-
We are not dug shit by any stretch of the imagination
-
I'm sick of it as well. The constant slagging off of SOD and Halliday. Paton. Kettlewell. Even Davor. Seriously. Why would anyone support a club when all they do is slag every player off and our manager to boot. McGinn as well.
-
It's not been hellish and he's not an imposter. We are safe and that's all that matters.
-
The ball was apparently kicked onto SODs arm from a foot away. Come on Motherwell
-
The reason that Motherwell did not call police was because the parents didn't want them to. That's been reported in the press. If any mistake was made it was not alerting other people to these allegations.
-
To be fair this has been discussed in the press with MFC statements attached and the individual concerned is dead. I do understand your point but if you are talking about defamation it would amaze you the stuff that can be said on social media... Without consequences because it tends to be only rich people that can sue. Speaking from experience unfortunately
-
I appreciate what they do. Kept me going during the down spots
-
I like the video but not the voice over.

I've only met Theo once briefly but he does seem like a nice guy. Tbh. If he does move on and disappear into obscurity as you say at least he'll be hopefully well paid for it. However he comes across as ambitious and someone who wants to do well for his country too so hopefully he will continue to do well no matter where he goes. More than one ex player has made a move from Motherwell to progress their career and then struggled to get game time elsewhere but that's possibly to be expected when they are moving to bigger clubs.
-
I might be in the minority but I would rather we kept Bair if we can get him to sign on for another season.
-
I agree with you. But I don't think Theo is a one season wonder. He's put in a lot of graft to improve his game. That's very clear. He spoke about the work he's done with the club to improve.
-
We lost Spittal (and plenty of other players) for nothing so that's the chance clubs have to take at times. And surely if Theo stays another year it will be because he wants to? We could say the same about Lennon Miller who extended his contract by a year. Folk seemed to be quite happy to keep him for another season.
-
No. David Gray.
-
It absolutely would but I'm still going to be very sorry to see him go if he does leave.
-
It depends what the club feels is significant. The Bristol City rumour was 750k initially then it went to 750k plus 500k add ons. The only other club I've seen that are supposed to be interested in him at this stage is Charlton.
-
I think Murray will have a fair few offers that we would probably struggle to match - plus he's 32 - which some folks probably wouldn't be happy with. Although to be fair so is Van Veen and a lot of fans wanted him back. Just saw an interview with Kettlewell and he's just said that it's going to take a significant offer to prise Theo away from Motherwell.

Over the last twenty years we've been top 6 nine times and 7th twice. So on a good season we've got every chance of being sixth. But there's always the chance we might just miss out. And that for me just shows that unless a club is sitting in fifth or sixth place with no prospect of being caught then there's always going to be a few teams in contention for the last spot. Its a tight league and tbh unless we get a decent amount of investment into the club then I don't see how top six every season is feasible. We have a relatively small fan base. We are fan owned. This season we blew it for ourselves re top six. But we also had a squad with a lot of injuries. Players being recalled from loan spells. I don't think top six is an unrealistic goal to set, but I just don't see how it can be a minimum one unless we suddenly have a lot more money to spend and can compete with the teams above us in the transfer market. Killie are sitting fourth and could offer Van Veen 10k a week and we couldn't (no regrets over that). It's not an even playing field and surely that has to be a consideration when setting targets. I'd rather be a club that backed a manager who didn't get top six than have a revolving door of management like Hibs have.
-
Already seen Robbo McInnes and Lennon linked with it.
-
And the fact that we cant say no really because we aren't a wealthy club. I do think we do sell ourselves short at times though because we have had players who have made that step up and maybe at some point we can hold out for more money for our best players.
-
Aye. Get Bair and Spits to come on. Big sod as well. Tell folk how they could improve. 🤣.
-
Like other people have said we don't cash in on goalkeepers as a rule anyway. I just think it's a shame in a way - maybe because I think we might get sold short because we are Motherwell if that makes sense. On the one hand it's great that other clubs recognise the talent we have. I just think too many other clubs think they can get our players on the cheap. Just need to wait and see how it all pans out.
-
We don't know if he's going to improve or not as you say . I would suspect on current form that he probably would.
-
To be fair I think the only folk who put the top six pressure on our manager are folk on fans forums. Interesting that you've put Dundee Utd on there.
-
We can. If we can let Spittal go for nothing and Kelly go for nothing we can let Bair go for nothing. I absolutely agree with the fact that we will probably need to sell him but if we can let other players go for nothing at the end of their contract then why can't we keep Bair? Or at least hold out for a much better offer. 1.5 min before add ons in my view.
