He played 31 games in his first season and 29 in his second. To be fair as well the ACL injury was a freak one. He's had no other injuries since signing for us as far as I'm aware. 

You don't have to gatekeep on every single Slattery post

Thanks for stating the facts. And that appearance record includes a spell when the then Manager opted to leave him out, even when fit. The ACL injury is something interested Clubs will keep an eye on though so I guess January will be the window for offers if he is a regular until then.

Am sure my mum taught beside Davie Whiteford at Garrion. (she did, just asked her). She taught beside Roger Hynd at Garrion too. 

What did she teach?  That was my time at school. I would understand if you can’t share the name.

Regardless of the Miller situation, Slattery is no different from any other Motherwell player. - a suitable bid comes in he will be off.

He has done well the last few months and on current form a key player for ud moving on, but lets not kid ourselves that he's not replaceable.

If he was replaceable we should have done that when he was out for a year.

The point re Slattery is he's one of the few players whom another club would pay a fee for.  Current position (excl Miller) we don't have too many of those. 

I'm sure we'd all prefer he stay. The point for me is all Motherwell players will have price tag and should we be offered the right money we would sell.  As we did for KVV, Bair and many that came before them, as long as we the price was right.  In recent years we've been so much better in not giving it away. 

The huge positive in all of this is we stood by the player during his injury and in turn he signed another contract.  Add to that he's been on top form and attracted this type of discussion.  What a difference playing in a more forward position, he's gone from the most booked player to potential top scorer.
