Hold I say hold that result boy. CRAIG BROWN has revealed his special bond with his Motherwell players saw him reject Aberdeen. But SunSport can reveal the Dons were last night still trying to lure the ex-Scotland boss to Pittodrie. Yet it's unlikely the 70-year-old will have a change of heart after committing his future to Well. Brown said: "We had a gut feeling staying at Motherwell was the right thing to do. The other hugely influential thing was the attitude of the players. The response we've had since taking over has been exceptional. "These players are so diligent and conscientious. "The staff are also outstanding, we have the best backroom staff in the league. "Motherwell is the club where it all began for me really, so the place is very close to my heart. "It would very difficult to match that and very difficult to leave." Brown and Knox met a Dons delegation that included chairman Stewart Milne and director of football Willie Miller on Tuesday. They headed back north disappointed after failing to sell the pair on a move to Pittodrie. Yet Brown added: "Aberdeen have asked us to reconsider, but we have made a commitment to Motherwell. "I wouldn't like to be the next guy to come along and think he was second choice. "They indicated if we wanted the job we'd be considered." Brown and Knox have been working without contracts. But in light of their talks with Aberdeen, it's understood Well chairman John Boyle is now keen to tie the duo down. Brown said: "It might be that they are looking to put us on a contract now. "We didn't believe other teams would come for us. But Aberdeen are not the first to come for us." Meanwhile Miller has told the Dons players to CANCEL their Christmas night out in Newcastle. They were due to head south after the game against Hearts on Saturday. But one player said: "Willie told us because of the club's position we had to be seen to be being totally professional in our approach towards turning things around. "We had to agree that this was the right decision."

And wouldn't it be a right hoot chaps if Mr McGhee and Mr Leitch were the new M.F.C dream team ....eh eh . That is if nice Mr Brown and Mr Knox leave of course.

http://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/Article.a...2045135?UserKey= Broonie no quite decided yet? might still be offski Brown said: "Aberdeen chairman Stewart Milne phoned me back on Wednesday and asked if we would be prepared to reconsider our refusal to be a candidate for the job. "Quite frankly, although we originally said no, after the very pleasant appeal from the Aberdeen chairman to reconsider our position, we will have another agonising sit-down and talk out of respect for a man who we both respect. "As well as the chairman, Duncan Fraser and Willie Miller, we also know people such as directors Hugh Little and Gordon Buchan and like them very much so it was hard to say no to them. "With the chairman coming back to us everything is now up in the air, everyone is entitled to change their mind, so there could be a change of heart." Earlier in the day, Aberdeen's chances of securing their leading candidate appeared doomed.

Right guys I'm no fishing or looking for an argument but I couldn't care less if Broon stays or goes ,anyone [players, managers etc] if they do a good job for M.F.C leaves for the bigger though not necessarily better job. Its always been that way and always will and I for one wont loose any sleep over it.

Archie Knox went ballistic with council staff when he found out that Celtic’s youth team had beaten his club to training facilities! The young hoops were quick on the draw on Monday when they booked into the Ravenscraig Leisure Centre for some indoor training forcing Motherwell to head to Toryglen. At first Motherwell claimed to have been outpriced by the North Lanarkshire facility but yesterday it emerged that they had been shown a red card after Knox had turned the air blue. According to a report in The Sun today the former Rangers No. 2 hurled abuse at council employees after finding out Celtic’s Under-19s had booked the pitch they wanted. Jim Logue, chair of North Lanarkshire leisure explained: “The coaching staff of Motherwell FC insisted they wished to use the facility yesterday without a booking and that they should take priority over anyone else. “When told we were unable to accommodate them as other clubs who had taken the sensible step of booking were using the pitches, a member of the Motherwell coaching staff became abusive towards one of our reception staff. “While I welcome Motherwell’s more conciliatory approach during the course of today, we have no option but to now investigate this in the context of our non-harassment policy. “ The chief executive of Motherwell FC has stressed those comments do not represent the views of the club regarding our partnership, which I sincerely hope can continue on a positive footing.”

Whats the betting that young Mr Boyle will find a job for Scott Leitch at M.F.C now that he has been axed with McGhoo at Aberdeen. My cash is on him being back at firpark sooner rather than later.

Accies might be a better run club than Motherwell.

Aye good call coz we have Gow As for Malcolm
-
Is it any wonder that were seen as a Mickey Mouse outfit by most of the football world ,the game is dying on its feet and we have this fiasco driving another nail in its coffin.

Don't see a thread ,so here's one.
-
I think Alan Gow is a good player when used properly unlike Hatley who is crap wherever he plays and does nothing for 90 mins. If anyone knows why Hatley is in the team please let me know as I must be missing something.
-
That for me is another poor result ,in recent weeks we've played three teams who are struggling and failed to beat any off them Hamilton ,Hibs and St Mirren. Nick Blackman is the only player who seems to be able to find the back of the net so I hope we can keep him for the rest of the season. Next weeks game against Hearts is going to be a belter.
-
Sutton booked for dissent. He joins Blackman who was carded after his goal for juming into the 'Well fans behind the goal.
-
What a bloody belter from Blackman! Turn and strike from the edge of the area almost takes the net down...
-
Yeeeeeeees. Nick A Blackman ees only on loan. How do u like them apples faraway saint.
