    Sticks in the throat but good move for DT, big wages no big upheaval to a new country. He has always been good to Motherwell , so no complaints if he does move .

    Couldn't agree more. DT has signed contracts twice over the last 18 months that has allowed us to maximise the fee we receive. He could have let his contract run down in the same way that Hastie did but chose to sign a new deal in January 2019. The extension last season also means he still has a couple of years on his contract now.

    Wish he was going elsewhere but good luck to the lad.

  2. I can understand why White played last night, and why Robinson kept him on so long. With the amount of balls being thrown into our own box from set pieces or throws I thought he defended them well.

    He still doesn't look to have the quality to lead the attack but we'll see how he settles into the team.

    As for Long, his late arrival after the summer and appearances since are reminiscent of Scott Mcdonald, sign days before the season starts having missed pre-season then spend the next 6 weeks dragging his fat arse around until he gets up to speed. 

  3. Some talking of needing wingers as Hylton and Seedorf aren't good enough, personally I'm still hopeful Hylton can contribute.

    Do any the guys who have seen Harry Robinson know if he will be a good option on the wing or does he look like another fringe player?

    Apologies if this ends with another nepotism discussion.

  4. Quote from SR on the official site:-

    “Christian was a gentleman. He always had a smile on his face playing the game he loved.

    “This is a tragic loss for his family, his friends and all of the football community, and to us at Motherwell FC who had the opportunity to work with him.

    “Our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this very sad time.”

  5. The mock ups using the Erima templates look superb UBH, love the C&A trackie top.

    The white away kit also looks excellent but was there not something about a France World Cup kit having to be canned as the sleeves were different colours?

  6. Maybe we should teach one of our short-arsed forwards to take a long throw (no pun intended) to allow the big guys to get in the box. On Tuesday we had Gallagher throwing the ball into the box with no-one able to challenge for it when it got there.

  7. The 'too loyal to certain players' remark was an interesting one, I'd expected an excuse about 'flu in the camp but the comment, along with Hartley getting hooked at half-time, gave me the impression we wouldn't be seeing much of him, at least over the coming weeks.

    It'll be interesting to see if that was a throwaway line from Robinson borne out of frustration at the performance or if it will have some impact on team selection, albeit with limited options through injuries and suspension, over the next few weeks.

    I'd like to see Gallagher and Donnelly given a chance as a central defensive partnership but seem to recall Donnelly has another suspension coming up  so unless he thinks Maguire is ready I don't see many other options apart from Hartley. Just as long as it isn't Mugabi!

  8. The number of games teams in League One and League Two can play is crazy. 46 league matches for League 2 along with games in the FA Cup, League Cup, as well as the EFL Trophy - which has now been padded out with EPL youth teams so it requires a Group stage before the 5 knock-out rounds.
