Surely we decide if we want to keep him or let him go. And the price we let him go for.

More than that.

We could.. According to people who think we have plenty of money

That's a derisory offer

I agree

I'd rather keep him tbh

He went back to his own club because he was injured. Yes he's done well at Utd but he had an injury and wouldn't have played for us again that season anyway.

It's not there when I look at the Motherwell fc feed for some reason. No idea why. Ah ok. It's from a few days ago. That's why I couldn't find it. Cheers

This isn't even on our twitter

I hardly think so. They can put out what they like on twitter without there being an agenda behind it.

Who is it they don't like? Phil, Amber? All of them?

Agree

Thank you. You'd never think I did accounts to degree level... My head is just full of criminology just now.. Thanks again

I don't think the club is run badly but as I've said before. I'd like to see us be in the situation where we didn't need to sell our best players to survive and thats why I'm open to outside investment

I wasn't at the AGM.. So excuse me if all of the AGM talk means very little to me. And I'm not thick.. But all of this is way over my head.. Probably because I'm just a fan who turns up on match day and donates to the well society Maybe someone could explain it in simple terms

He was talking about the Americans in his post as in I presume the proposed investor. Surely that won't have been discussed at the AGM

No. He doesn't. He's just repeating stuff from "sources".

This

As far as I'm aware there should not be any sides to any story. No Motherwell fan should know details of any proposal before other fans.

As other people have said - where are the Well society going to find other money from? Unless there are cash reserves somewhere. I know it's possible that they could ask for extra donations from members. My whole issue with fan ownership is that there simply aren't enough members to make it work. No more than that - and I'm a member.

See all this "from what you have heard" - that's just more rumours clearly. See unless people know something as fact - maybe it shouldn't be shared.

Define "magic beans". None of us know what the proposed investment is

But apparently you've said this year's team is dog shit - and that might be your genuinely held view. But we can't have this all ways. We can't be criticising fans who think we are punching above our weight making top six when fan ownership isn't allowing us to compete in the transfer market. Taking Van Veen as an example - I think we did the right thing not going for him - and I get that other factors are in play - fans coming through the gates are going to be different at every club etc but if we do want to compete with other clubs for players - we need more money. Otherwise we will be relying on loans, young talent and players like Bair the manager can help develop. It's all very well saying the club is financially stable. We are stagnating.

And the proposed investor has said he was looking at other clubs before he settled on Motherwell

So fans can't have less than 50 per cent share of a club? If fan ownership was working Motherwell wouldn't be looking for outside investment.
