Welsh not even in the squad for Celtics game tonight.

Bizzarre that Celtic dont apparently rate Welsh. His treatment will surely open eyes.

I can only think our team has brought more out of him than Celtic could manage.

Wonder what the thinking was playing him in the cup? Just to fill a shirt because they wanted to rest others higher up the pecking order?

I know they won't care about how potentially impacts on us but if they are thinking there is a chance he will be loaned back surely they know it makes it a slightly less attractive option from our point of view.

Still baffles me as to why Celtic played him in the cup game.

I think MON was going through the motions of playing the backup 11 to show the board he needed more signings.

I hope Stephen and his agent are harassing Celtic to get him back here on loan. Benefits Welsh, (keeps him match fit and in the shop window) benefits Celtic (as in saving some wages + increasing his value) and benefits Motherwell. (Quality player in the squad for remainder of the season)

He isn't eligible as wasn't named in initial 25 man squad before league stage

I doubt they're too bothered about whether he comes back here on loan or not, given they've obviously still been paying a significant part of his wage. He was likely taken back to make a point, and playing him - as weeyin said - enforced that point.

If they had a decent offer for him, from us or elsewhere, he wouldn't have got near the pitch.

He's progressing towards a regular starting slot now. I think that's 3 out the last 4 he's started and in the 4th he played the full second half against Inter.

3-1 win for Udinese. 70 odd minutes for Miller.

He’s been getting really good write ups and has started their past 3 games. Absolutely delighted for the lad….. who’d have thought a young guy would have needed a little bit of time to settle playing abroad?? Crazy eh!!

last month we had Celtic and rangers fans saying he was rubbish and they dodged a bullet buying him. Give it a few months and it’ll be a “no brainer” for them to sign him.

i sat in work yesterday and listened to 3 rangers fans tell me that £3m is a fair price for them to get Maswanhise and we should sell him and cash in??? Fk off and pay your face painter you inbred mongrels.

Miller has already had more first team minutes than the vast majority of youngsters that the OF sign (and then loan out before the inevitable punting). It's rare to see a young Scottish player developing in either side.

He did well to avoid them.

^This. You have to apportion some of the blame to the red top sports journos (term used loosely) who have managed to fill a million column inches with made up shite about the players the terrible twins are signing. What team is playing well ? Who is standing out for them ? Lets link them to both sides of the old firm and take a throw away line from a player on a podcast and call that 'official asking price revealed'. Both Celtic and Rangers, their fans and the journos who make a living writing crap made up stories to fill papers for a month of transfer window are all cunts. Imagine if we ended up playing one of them in a cup semi or final ? The headlines would be grade A nuclear waste. "Celtic/Rangers consider signing all Motherwell's players on PCA".

I even had some inbred green and white pikey approach me in the street on Saturday (I had a Motherwell top on) shouting that 'That Mashoney boy hus just signed for us fur a mullyin pounds'.
