Mcfadden signed a short term deal.

Shame he never showed it with us for 99% of the time he here. So much for career threatning back injury, lyingbastarditus more like. Gutted about result, penalty incident will be interesting to see back, we seemed to create a decent amount of chances but final balls always poor.

Quite pleased with this appointment, hopefully get to see the great brand of attacking football similar to his first season with us. If anyones in any doubt, please have a look at his wikipedia page, he has a record!

Team for today Ripley Chalmers McManus Kennedy Law Grimshaw Lasley Ainsworth Pearson Moult McDonald Motherwell subs: Samson, Laing, Fletcher, Johnson, Robinson, Clarkson, Taylor

Never had the privilege of seeing joe play, worked with his wife for a short period and he would pop into to see her on many occasions. Always happy to chat about the club and had many great stories to tell. I always remember him saying how he was desperate to win the POTY award one year as the winner would get there whole house new carpets, apparently that was a massive prize back in the day. I am also certain he told me he played as a striker for one season. Thoughts with his family. RIP

Hopefully build on last weeks win. Another three points would be most welcome going into the international break. I would go with same starting line up as last week.

Samson officially signed.

So far we have matched last seasons results stride for stride. Massive improvements needed as the decision making most of the time has been shocking.

Kerr was on trial at Oldham a month or so ago. Scored an OG early in the game.

Yeah i think that Hans Frodi Hansen had a belter of a game for the Faroes vs Scotland and in an interview he mentioned the bad treatment from Motherwell. Another similar situation with Kampman was that he had signed Finnish defender Harri Ylonen before he got his jotters.

Yeah both keepers. Don't recall Rovde either but Krysiak was on loan in 2009 I believe and played last game of season against Kilmarnock.

0-0 at half time. Decent game. Didn't know Emile Heskey still played.

Tomorrows programme cover.

Tonights team - Ripley, Chalmers, Kennedy, Laing, Law, Johnson, Lasley, Leitch, Ainsworth, Moult & Clarkson.

We still have Craig Reid also. Is he actually injured? I seem to remember him tweeting he was glad to be back training after an injury but wasn't with the squad when they travelled to Holland.

Darren McGregor just signed a two year deal with Hibs.

Yeah seen him kicking about at the start of the Dundee United game.

I see Mohsni has signed for French side Angers, the French FA has said he must serve the full length of his ban. The fud feels its unfair as he feels international matches should have counted towards this.

On the bench.

Just watching leeds game on sky. Listed Erwin as costing them 400k.
