El Grew

Your last statement may be true but there will be a damn sight fewer supporters paying to watch them.

Celtic are doing exactly what Rangers do when it comes to buying players from other Scottish clubs. They float a low-ball price via their favoured tabloid hacks to see the reaction and whether they might nick a bargain. Do to Celtic what Hibs did to them with John McGinn. However, make no mistake, Motherwell will sell Turnbull but IMO they will get nowhere near what he's really worth - the amateurs running the club will make sure of that.

Is there not a pre-set formula for these kind of fees?

His career could very well go the same way as Paul Slane's. He signed for Celtic in a blaze of publicity. After only playing 1 game he was hawked out on loan to MK Dons, Partick Thistle and Ayr Utd. Last seen playing in 2017 playing at Clyde!! Now finished!! Be careful what you wish for.

I think the silence from FP speaks volumes on this.

When Liverpool fail to win the EPL, Klopp will be sacked and Gerrard will be back down the road to Anfield like s*ite off a shovel. We'll see how Hastie likes Ibrox then.

Ah, Smudger and Fraser Wishart at Tannadeechee.

If he is leaving then good luck to him. He'll need it. Yes he has shown potential but in reality he's achieved the square root of f*ck-all. The road out of FP is not paved with gold. It has been well-trodden by many before him and only a really very select few have ever gone on to so-called better things. If he seriously thinks his future footballing career can be best served by joining any of the clubs that have allegedly shown interest in him, then he should crack on as soon as possible and make way for others. MFC won't crash and burn on the basis of him or anyone else leaving to go elsewhere.

What a difference from December complete turnaround. Played so well and very pleasing to see. The second goal in particular was a joy to behold and reminiscent of 'Well sides of years past. Alan Campbell looking like Phil O'Donnell with every passing game - great box to box player. Jake Hastie looks a real top class player in the making. The defence looks more sound playing with as an orthodox back four. No failures yesterday. Fair dos to Robinson for recognising the need to change our style of playing. Oh and white shorts with claret socks also reminiscent of Well teams of years past. Lol. Onwards and upwards. COYW.

Talk about Jekyll and Hyde!! What a difference from the cup game. Its great to see good young enthusiastic players in the first team and doing very well too. We've always been a club that produces good youngsters and plays them (Ancell Babes, McCrae, Wark, Forsyth, McAllister, Walker, McClair, Boyd, O'Donnell to name but a few). The only downside is that if they keep this up the scouts will be around FP like flies around a turd.

We need to stop fishing for players from English non-league clubs and look to the lower divisions in Scotland for potential players.

If we are going to change manager what about considering Gary Naismith at QOS, Ian Murray at Airdrie, Ian McCall at Ayr Utd. Not on the usual managerial merry-go-round and all have done quite well at lesser clubs.

Suntans.

I'm off home for a heat. I can't remember their keeper having to make a save.

I was wrong - 2-0 to them. Writing was on the wall after 25 minutes when we hadn't one shot on goal. If this doesn't convince some on here that we need a new management team I don't know what will.

Same drab old home performance. Their keeper has had nothing to do. All set up nicely for the usual outcome - 1-0 to them.

Article in the Sun saying he is heading to Leeds for talks about a move. He is only 16 and is under contract with us until 2020.

Not easy on the eye by any stretch but more important to get the 3 points and put some clear water between us and the 3 below us.

As I said in a previous post Sammon is not what we need - 66 goals in over 400 games at an average of 0.16 goals/game for umpteen clubs. FFS we are in the process of selling a guy with a better record than that.

Really sorry to see Ryan leaving. Really genuine guy who always tried his heart out for us and IMO the best forward at the club after Louis Moult. A real old-fashioned inside-forward. Great at dragging defenders into areas they weren't comfortable. Good luck big man.

We're in real trouble whether he plays or not. Accies will be wound right up for this one and their plastic pitch has been a bogey for us in the past.

Conor Sammon has played a total of 405 first team games for a littany of clubs and has scored a grand total of 66 goals in that time at an average of 0.163 goals per game. Begs the question why on earth Robinson brought him onboard even though it is a loan deal. Clearly not what was/is required at FP.

Lot of folk getting their excuses in pre-game for us losing this one. Lol.

Richard Tait by a country mile. IMO not just the best 'Well footballer yesterday but the best footballer, period. Always gives 100%. Back to his best position at right back (admittedly through circumstances) and always looked better playing there in a back 4 on the very few occasions we have played with that formation. Why is he not the club captain?

Not a knee-jerk reaction and I don't give a rat's arse who it upsets but Motherwell need to get rid of this manager as soon as possible. Started a home game with 6 defenders against a team that's only scored 6 goals in 8 away games. F*cking disgrace.
