MelvinBragg Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Having read the Motherwell Greatest 100 thread with interest and watching the World Cup the last few days, a question popped into my head. If you could pick five Motherwell players of any era to take penalties in a shoot out, who would you pick? Having thought about it, I'll stick to players I've seen.. Cooper Nijholt Moult Stamatelopolous McFadden Pretty sure I've forgotten an obvious one or two. Higdon or Sutton maybe..? Who else have I forgotten?

wellfan Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Stama would probably pull a hamstring just placing the ball on the penalty spot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dennyc Posted 29 minutes ago Report Share Posted 29 minutes ago One for us oldies. Dave Whiteford. If I remember correctly. Might be a bit biased though. His first game for MFC was the first Motherwell game I attended. Truth be told I did not know that until 5 minutes ago. St Johnstone at FP in 1966. 3-3. Went on to partner Joe Wark for many a year.

The African Posted 17 minutes ago Report Share Posted 17 minutes ago One for the real oldies, Johnny Aitkenhead. Never saw him myself, but my father claimed that he was the best penalty taker he had ever seen for us. His ability to accurately pass the ball into the corner of the goal was both simple and effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
