And probably more financial reward than he's getting just now, good luck to him, hope he does well.

1st day back for the players for pre-season training and you're off and running with the "we're screwed and getting relegated patter" 🤦‍♂️

But Carson never played at a higher level unless you count us as the pinnacle of his career, and as for Gillespie he's that good he's 4th or 5th choice at Newcastle so no big moves or regular 1st team football for him either, they were both decent but nothing special. Kelly has been immense for us since he arrived, one of the top keepers in the premiership and would have been capped for Scotland if someone other than that fud Clarke was in charge, so all told of the 3 we got the best deal in Kelly I think.

It's an absolute certainty that if KVV stays and he does not want to by all accounts he won't score 29 goals again next season, he will score a few but last season was a one off. Plus he will be out of contract and will walk away for nothing so the club had to cash in now. All the chat, myself included about a minimum of £1 million plus is fantasy and if there is only 1 club interested and that's their offer then there is not a lot the club can do, getting £500 k pus add ons is a lot better than nothing next year.

Getting paid a very good wage for an easy gig playing reserve football and the odd cup game, or premiership bench warming, with the possibility of some European trips next season in the CL. Aye ok then, Gillespie won't be losing much sleep on how his career has turned out.

What do you expect Johnston to do FFS Motherwell have looked after me since I was 12 so I better not move away and take the no doubt life changing cash he's potentially been offered. A chance to get regular match time, play at a higher level. Maybe in a new country, earning a wage that might set him up for life, aye its a tough decision. All this club loyalty pish is ancient history, footballers are like any other workers they follow the money if they get the chance. The loyal ones are usually those those who are not good enough to get regular game time or attract transfer offers and stay loyal right up to the point they get released.

Update on original post via club twitter Kieran spiers, Daniel hunter and Logan Dunachie all away as well https://twitter.com/MotherwellFC/status/1668950407496753152?t=2oT6XCsZVT2sY3gajM4O9g&s=19

I see the club instagram feed is reporting that Jake Carroll, Jack Aitchison, Corey O'Donnell and David devine are not being offered new contracts / not accepted new deal and are leaving the club, so effectively released.

I think he's gave enough hints in recent weeks he wants to move on, his wife is pregnant so he is probably wanting back home, unfortunately he will be away.

More than £1 million less than £2 million, loose change for a team like Millwall, I reckon if its more than that they tell you ie the £3 million we agreed to sell Turnbull for.

We seem to have this love in for McKinstry and i suspect a lot of people think he is better than he actually is, if he never got any game time under SK last season I can't see him changing that this year so for me our limited funds could be better spent elsewhere.

There was a time when a verbal agreement was a done deal but I take your point. Its going to be one of those undisclosed fee deals so nobody will know what we sold him for.

The BBC gossip page is running a story from the Dutch press that KVV to Groningen is a done deal apparently https://www.fcupdate.nl/voetbalnieuws/2023/06/fc-groningen-stunt-op-transfermarkt-kevin-van-veen-geeft-zijn-jawoord Translate the page for the gist of the story, no fee mentioned.

As long as the opening bid is 7 figures the club can discuss it, if not its thanks for your enquiry but jog on

I would think China is probably the place where the vast majority of all strips are made, whether they are good, bad or downright ugly,

Spoilsport 🤣

We will be going to hampden. Queen's Park move back to Hampden for next season after 2020 sale to Scottish FA - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/65843389

Pish unless you are thinking about the Celtic biscuit tin approach before wee Fergus took over,

It's all going wrong for Celtic, 1st Ange leaves and now Stevie Hammell has landed a coaching job apparently https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/steven-hammell-lands-top-celtic-30187048 Be afraid Celtic fans, be very afraid

It's a group we will stroll through especially if we still have KVV on the books, we are too strong for the rest of those teams.

Aye it is good budgeting considering it meant his goals this season earned the club another 300k in prize money, and probably another 1 or 2 million by keeping us in the premiership so cash well spent if you ask me.

Nah bad idea, he had his chance and blew it, potential bad feeling / strained working relationship with SK and his back room team if he comes back, that's not a good way to start a new season.

A bucket of water, some soap and a cloth to clean the bird crap off the seats is not the most expensive thing in the world, and that's not even getting done.

The 2nd coming of St Brendan is the current bookies favourite apparently.

Would anyone in the US, bother, care, take any interest etc in Wrexham if they had been promoted to league 2 in England but not been owned by two Hollywood celebs, indulging themselves playing real life Fifa 23 or whatever its called theses days I think not. I take your point about the European, English premiership, cup games etc but not when it comes to Wrexham. But if team continues to improve and more promotions come fair play to them let's hope Hollywood does not get bored with them.
