Jonesy Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Would the other aspect not just be Chris waiving his cut of the fee and Motherwell pocketing all teh cash? Thats how it looked to me, although hopefully there is a sell on clause. That could bag us a small fortune later on. Probably didn't get one put in though. All the best Chris. One of our best signings in a long time, hope to see you playing in the Premiership soon. He's been an absolute gent here and so many good memories. The 2 goals in the cup at Tynecastle, the Euro clincher against Aberdeen and the hat trick against Inverness. Edit: There's no way we'll get Giles Barnes, he's off to Fulham to replace Jimmy Bullard.

mfc1886 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Would be very interesting if we happened to get something from them, a loan is a great shout. Hopefully an attacking player, maybe not a striker, Pearson would be great, but I don't imagine him returning here any time soon. I heard it could be Gary Teale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC'd Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Oh god no! If people thought Jim O'Brien couldn't cross a ball.. Please don't let Gary Teale pull on a Motherwell shirt, one of the worst players (up there with Kyle and Steve Caldwell to pull on a Scotland shirt), it's an embarrasment that he has so many caps for the National Team. God fuckin' awful. Absolute shitebag, nae confidence to take a man on as a winger, it's get the ball and look for the RB at all times. No thanks. Doubt Derby would let him go anyway, if rumours are correct that (the other wee fannie) Kris Commons is on his way, then they will need Teale to reclaim his place at the right-hand-side of there midfield.

gullane Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Good piece of business. £400k for a class striker who cost nothing and bagged us 27 goals. Cheers Chris - see you in the Premiership one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraniteCityMFC Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Although I think maybe Killen?? Thoughts on that one? Won't be Killen, just on the radio that he is off on loan to Norwich. Any other ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellfan1984 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 If the deal will not be completed till monday can he play today? I would not think he would but i just thought i would ask. Thanks Chris and good luck. No as he won't be in the country Porter will be at Pride Park Stadium on Saturday afternoon to watch the Coca-Cola Championship game against Coventry City.

fat_tony Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Sorry to see him go but he's been a great player and I wish him all the best. Let's hope there's a big sell-on clause in there somewhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motherwell Football Club Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Either its around the 400k mark with a sell on or its a bit less with a player coming the other way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickoza Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Sad to see him go, but glad I got to see his first and last appearances in a 'Well jersey. Thanks for everything, Chris, good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaka Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 sad to see him go but good business and a ready made replacement in Sutton so couldnt be refused, all part of following the well. All the best Ports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Where did you get the fee from gullane? He's been a very good bit of business in any case. I wish him luck down there. Ditto. All we know is the fee has been described as "undisclosed". It could be anywhere between £30k and £380K with strings attached. What does seem reasonably certain is that Derby will pay us a fee.

weesacs Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 the last phrase mentions him thinking the Championship isnt too different to what he's used to playing in. nice to hear, especially after all the criticism scottish football gets, and the praise the Championship gets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC'd Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Obviously with every new player arriving at a club, they have to suck up their arses a tad, a cheap way to get fans on side etc. But, never agreed with the following quote: the ground is better than anything I've played in before and I'm looking forward to it Now that is bollocks, Ibrox, Parkhead, Stade Marcel Picot anyone? Pride Park may well be an impressive stadium, but surely not on the same scale as the above mentioned 3. Not bothered, just a pointless thing to say really and not needed.

Rickoza Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Having been in Pride Park, aye it's a big stadium, but it's hardly better than the likes of the Old Squirm grounds! Just trying to fit in I guess....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weesacs Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 i took it to mean what he would class as his "home" stadium. Meaning out of all the stadiums he's been based at, this is the best so far, cant argue with that really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
