mio

It’s the Turkish side. Close on £2m I heard. It’s from someone who is usually reliable but you never know. I don’t see anything online about it.

Watt away I heard, deal agreed?

If we finish 6th with a decent cup run I will be more than happy. Alfred has a tough gig on his hands

Got my ticket for Fridays game and there’s not many/any left in the centre part of the main stand. Might be a decent crowd in. I’ll be happy if there’s a sign that we are playing in a similar fashion to last year albeit looking pretty raw and I fully expect a bundle of mistakes. I look forward to the many mutterings of “it’s just not the same” from the crowd.

Jeez, you lot are a tough audience lol

Did we not have a Franz Reich play for us before? Add Jake Reich to the equation and he’ll be our second. i wonder if we’ll ever have a third Reich

I’ll take that

France have been poor so far, they need to get their act together as I think they are the only side who will beat England if they get to the final. Spain notoriously sh1t the bed.

That Spanish warm up trackie is class. Oozes Motherwell 😂

Connelly’s performance at Hibs was the first time I felt that there was a bit of potential there, I thought he had a really good game. I’d certainly be happy keeping him as 2nd choice. I’m hoping the new keeper looks as good as his showreel

I’ve seen about half a dozen “rate SPL new kits” stuff online and in almost every one the Motherwell kit is No1. other folk don’t seem to see what we see….. maybe we are all wrong and it’s a belter lol i still thinks it’s fine in a sort of meh way….

Alfred’s interview suggests a very youthful team. He suggested the game enabled 2009 and 2010 players to get hair on their chests?? id like to see our more established players get minutes in their legs before playing a really good side on Friday night but hey ho… I’ll trust the process (I hate that phrase… sorry)

I remember as a kid being quite excited that we signed him and it was for quite a bit as far as I remember. I also remember getting a football card of him from a packet of chewing gum and being elated. He was wearing the Motherwell admiral kit with the 2 claret stripes down the front. Rest in Peace Mike.

I suppose I could do a lot of running and not score goals either ….. I wonder if Jens would’ve wanted me.

I cant help but think Elliot Watt might have talked him up too… best pals and all that

Hendry is the worst of the lot imo. I’ve seen zero in him and when he does get minutes in between his long lay offs he just points and moans and has a face like a smacked arse.

A glass bone dry, wedged in a sandal, buried in the Sahara desert …… type of guy

Ach we’ll be fine, not the first time we’ve lost half our players, and it won’t be the last. It is the first time however we potentially lose 4 /5 of our players for circa £10m quid.

As much as I liked Ward, £800k for a keeper who isn’t that great a keeper in his final year of contract….. when we got him for nothing…… is a decent bit of business.

Time to go Alfred, unacceptable!! 🙃 if it goes the same way as last season after our Twente thumping then I’ll be ok.

I was hoping this might have been on one of the 70 million Chanels on the firestick but I’m afraid not.

Think I’m in the minority…. I think it’s fine. Don’t like the tiger etc but what can you do… it’s us what it is. certainly won’t be taking the moral high ground on who sponsors us.

I take it back what I said that just was the only positive for me to come from the tournament…. That news today was a positive

A good thing about his performances and how well he’s carried himself with interviews etc is that he’s out priced the old scum buying him. No way would either of them pay more than £2-3m for a guy his age from another Scottish club.

Really good goal too. He’s the only positive I can take from this World Cup. It’s been brilliant watching him do so well.
