Never thought Morrison would make it to be quite honest thought Rohan Ferguson was better than him if I’m honest.

Devante Cole. Sign him up quickly mr Burrows

110% both footed as well what a player he’s proving to be btw

“Hamstring injury” now, enough time to renegotiate a contract... just win motherwell!

@Onthefringes Some information we both received and agreed on, can we be mates now??? In all seriousness he had a scan today for a mystery injury, detailed as a muscle injury? It’s been evident this season he doesn’t want to be here beyond this season, not necessarily him more so his agent sending things to multiple media outlets etc. I like the big guy I do and he’s undoubtedly over the past 18 months been our best player, but nobody is bigger than the club, especially when he’s going round liking fans tweets then removing them, all I/ we ask at Motherwell is you give 100% when at the club and considering he’s a club captain it’s extremely poor for me. If we wants to renegotiate his contract to leave in the summer then let it happen but I wouldn’t be giving him a platform for the euros if I’m the manager.

Totally understand your point but I guess not everything is made public. With my comment “By Chuck the toys out the pram” I mean trying every trick in the book to not play, he’s also trying to renegotiate his contract to exclude that trigger clause, personally for me I’d punt him. I don’t understand why he’d want to jeopardise a euro spot or turning potential suitors away however he obviously feels strongly about leaving the club and not signing on again at the moment. For a captain of a football club I find it very poor. We shall see tonight if what the rumours and what people have been told are true I guess.

For once I’m going to agree with you, received the same information... He can Chuck the toys at the pram if he wants just means he’ll likely ruin his euros chances, Kind of points to why we signed 2 defenders and I expected him to leave late on on Monday.

Am I missing something what has McGinley done wrong? I’m on the bandwagon for Lamie though, should have been signed as nothing more than back up, however I think McGinley is more than capable of doing a job, unless he’s not doing it in training but whenever I’ve watched him he’s been decent.

Can announce a deal any time as long as the deal sheet was sent in time.

Played wing back for Livi, pretty much played every where for them, there’s no point sticking a winger down as “left winger” or “right winger” as these days they can usually play either it’s how the work in the system. He seems like a player that would easily slot in at both and other positions if need be.

Especially during the middle of a pandemic and most guys will be moving up here themselves (if from England) difficult situation but as an overall we are in a far better position and had we had this team at the start of the season we’d be up nearish the top 4. I have a small hunch that Roberts will come here and do a job for us, his kind of last chance saloon as hearts clearly don’t rate him and if he gets papped from there he’ll be back to league 2, comes here for 6 months recaptures his previous form of a couple years ago and his career goes up the way.

Tbf he’s faster than Mbappe https://www.skysports.com/amp/football/news/11676/11703275/meet-tyler-magloire-blackburn-rovers-defender-faster-than-kylian-mbappe

Someone say one more... I thought there would be one in tomorrow morning (free agent) plans may have changed.

Both signings don’t scream exciting to me but it’s still essentially an upgrade on what’s here for 6 months. If I remember correctly Roberts was pretty decentish at ICT and ended up back down south and earned a move to Ipswich (championship at the time), he’s got ability but clearly not shown it in his last few moves but it is slightly baffling to sign someone who can’t get a game for hearts but if we signed him last summer we’d have been happy with it. Nolan isn’t a stand out name either but he’ll be pretty solid and looks a complete hard nut. I think we’ve got enough to beat the drop and build again in the summer, let’s just hope both players can make an impact over the course of the next 6 months and maybe longer.

No I think it’s more in the basis of the players retained or leaving category with the likes of Dunne, SOD etc. Defo 1 and possibly a second which is exactly what Burrows said.

Correct defo 1 in. Other may be a bit later perhaps after the window as he’s a free, that’s if it happens.

I don’t know maybe they haven’t progressed enough or showed enough in training same as any other player who can’t get minutes? I couldn’t tell you but as said again I feel sorry them as it’s horrid year to be in there position, when they could be out getting minutes. At the moment there jersey fillers and from the start of the season under both management it’s been clear they haven’t made an impact on the first team, and looks likely that won’t change. Alexander has been brought in to take us out the relegation zone and keep us up simple as that, is he going to throw in youngsters just to appease fans constant love of youth players getting played who may or may not be good enough, and have relegation from the SPFL on his CV I think not. As long as they are in and around the team all they can do is prove to the manager their better than what’s in front of them.

I’ve said it many times I feel as though if the likes of Cornelius and Devine and the rest are to have a future at the club like many think they should need minutes here or elsewhere. I’ll admit I’ve been pleasantly surprised by Maguire the other night (my MOTM) not an amazing prospect but he’s decent. Back to the original point though I feel sorry for the youngsters as they are literally there to make up the numbers on match day and training with no minutes whatsoever, it’s a difficult year for them as theres no reserve team either and not enough players to have reserve games and a bounce game is very rare. So the best thing for them is a loan move to prove there worth as GA and the rest may not think they are ready or good enough. I disagree with you though as I think you mean “when have you heard Alexander mention youth” but I recall in his very first interview he touches on it and he’ll be told that’s a requirement for our managerial position to bring through X amount of players in Y years. You more than me as I didn’t even know the score or lineups etc just “fringe players”. Nothing about an injury either (as long as it’s not a keeper) so it’s hardly breaking discretion if it’s an injury so if you feel free to tell us then great. What I do know is Seedorf may not be here for much longer though.

What story? Enlighten me please. You had no response for me so you then go back to the contract details, and since you seem to be pretty much “ITK” then you’ll know Dunne’s contract is very much on reduced terms similar to Tanners last season... However the contract details is totally irrelevant to this so called “story” about management, it’s literally 2 new guys with 2 previous still there so it’s not a total overhaul, also Ross has managed most the players last 18 months or so.

We played a bounce game yesterday against Accies with the fringe players so hopefully that will determine who stays and what else is required.

The vast majority of what’s left all train with the first team? I’m pretty sure they’ll know there names. Semple seemed to be the next big thing to come through and was hoping he’d do well at Cove this year but not quite happened for him. Kind of been shipped about positions as he was a striker and out wide then last year when Ross came in he started playing in the middle of the park.

Any news I produce is usually spot on ,this however is complete personal opinion and things I’ve heard regarding wages however my point still stands Dunne isn’t on anywhere near 1.2k a week and most fans will not that as it’s very much reduced terms the same as when Tanner is injured different story if he returns. Again Lamie and White came from teams very much below us in the pay scale and came as back up so not hard to work out.

Put it this way the club aren’t going to offer Charles dunne who most likely at the time wasn’t anywhere near fit or ready to come back to even train, they aren’t going to be paying him 1.2k a week on a 6 month contract when they know his fitness/ injury rehab situation. And we aren’t paying 1k a week on a player who was on buttons at livi to come in as our backup and a striker who came in as backup from Inverness most likely not a great wage down in the championship.

I know there on more than £110 and less than £900 a week

I know for fact all 3 players aren’t on 1k or more a week, however I don’t know official figures of their salary so I know half fact...
