couttsy Posted January 19, 2024 Report Share Posted January 19, 2024 Mixed feelings about Halliday, after putting aside his great love for one particular club in our league. I think it’s good news, but not totally sure! He’s experienced and proven to be good enough in our league, on the flip side how fit is he and what’s his attitude going to be like. Seems to be carving out a good career in the media for himself (and I think he talks a lot of sense compared to most in the Scottish media), however is that now where his focus is rather than training and games? Suppose time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelboy Posted January 19, 2024 Report Share Posted January 19, 2024 These are the signings you make when you're looking for a job on Superscoreboard or Open Goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mio Posted January 19, 2024 Report Share Posted January 19, 2024 If he can stay fit…… and that’s a big if…… I think he’ll be a decent signing. I’m not too fussed about the likeability of him or what team he likes or his podcast performances…..as long as he performs and helps us avoid relegation that’s all I care about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go and do Kettlewells job with the amount of money he has at his disposal. Its quite clear that Motherwell don't have a lot of money to spend and from what I've seen on Facebook tonight most fans are happy with the signing. Of course you wouldn't be. No surprise there. I didn't want halliday for the fact that he doesn't offer anything that our midfield is sadly lacking which is pretty much everything so why then go and use the limited funds we do have to bring him in,it's also in place that he will sign permanently in the summer and that's before we see how he gets on for the rest of the this season.hes here and he will get my backing but he doesn't solve any of our problems in my opinion.

GazzyB Posted January 19, 2024 Report Share Posted January 19, 2024 I'm surprised at the 1.5 year deal but it's not the worst signing, we lack experience in midfield and he gives us that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Made Posted January 19, 2024 Report Share Posted January 19, 2024 Welcome Andy, was disappointed when heard his name, more because of his age and limited playing time but he's here now. Still need to be convinced a permanent deal is worth it but as always, he's in our colours so he'll get my support. Now we need a striker, some bolstering of the defence as well and I suppose we'll have to be happy. Would've loved an out and out winger but we know what SK thinks of them.

wellsince75 Posted January 19, 2024 Report Share Posted January 19, 2024 Good luck to him, I'm sure it's the first of many. Important we sign some players with a bit of pace and skill - not easy to find in our bargain bucket budget. Given our threadbare squad and precarious league position there's a good argument for spending more per player, keeping small squad to bring in quality - most likely loanees. We've ridden our luck a few times in the last 10 years around this time of year with making multiple signings or changing manager. To stay in the league it's worth digging into some cash reserves.

santheman Posted January 19, 2024 Report Share Posted January 19, 2024 As is the case with every player we sign, I'll judge him on how he represents the club off the field and what he does on the park in a Motherwell strip and nothing else. Every player starts with a clean slate, I don't care what their history/reputation is or what previous clubs they've played for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewarkfanclub Posted January 19, 2024 Report Share Posted January 19, 2024 Happy to park my personal feelings about Halliday, mainly because they are based on perception of him as an individual from social media rather than any actual personal knowledge. What is not in doubt is his experience and ability. Given where we are, he is exactly the kind of signing we need. Hopefully he can hit the ground running and bolster our beleaguered midfield. With Davor looking decent and Miller coming back, it no longer looks as desperately thin as it was. However, it would be nice to get the boy Fraser in as well......

SteelmaninOZ Posted January 20, 2024 Report Share Posted January 20, 2024 Well he’s a Motherwell player now and I will keep an open mind and get behind him as I do with any player in the team. However if he fucks up off or on the park I’ll be first in the queue to say sack him! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
