Is Halliday injured? And or away? Personally I’m not a fan. But I’d rather we moved him on in Jan 

Cowan strangely said something about Halliday hanging up his boots today. Haven’t heard anything about him retiring but maybe he knows more than us.

AP is either half injured or on the way out. The game was there to win and we didnt bring on our only experienced stiker.

While we had a couple of forced changes, I dont believe that we wouldn't have brought on a stiker for Just at the end instead of McGhee if they were genuinely available.

The boy Bjorgolfsson looks decent

Sign the striker and try and get Welsh.  There is money there from Miller sale

Can we bring Olly Whyte into the squad to see how he does? Not sure how these partnership loans work.

I’d suspect that he’s training with us during at least part of the week as Stenhousemuir are not a full time team so JBA will know if he’s ready or not.

Sounds like we are getting this striker which will be interesting and as mentioned if we get Welsh for the rest of the season that’d be a brilliant result.

I actually feel like we need another midfielder as well after losing RCC and with Watt being out and the likelihood is there will be other injuries in midfield particularly giving the miles they put in every game, it’s inevitable.

This suggests we're not going to go crazy in January, as expected.

"The strength of the squad was evident and the Motherwell manager reiterated that his focus in the January transfer window is to keep his key players.
“That's the main plan, to make sure that this team gets the maximum out of this group of players, gets the maximum out of this season, and then we know in the summer it's a bigger window,” the Dane said.
“So that's the main track for us and then obviously there's a few gaps here and there and we'll see if we can fill them with quality like we did in the summer.”
