5-0 Motherwell.

James Scott will not be away in January nor will Polworth or Gallagher. We don’t need to sell them so no Scottish club can afford them and with Scott if an English club came in it would have to be 3 million. That’s the price.

Shaun Fagan must be in with a shout. Surely.

Where did you hear that?

Sloth is the man for the role.

I don’t get this sign an experienced striker. Why? Scott looks the real deal. He is strong, skilful and is starting to find the net. He has started this season like he finished the last - scoring goals. I say stick with him as the number one striker.

Manzinga - what a name. He could be absolute shite, but to have a player who sounds like a porn star is a new high for Motherwell. We are also assembling quite easily the coolest looking squad in the division. Key move was to get rid of the ginger and bring in the Zinga!

If he is released from Rangers then he is earning £0 - anything is a wage rise. Also factor in that he has hardly kicked a ball in about a year and I can’t see a huge amount of clubs swooping in to get him.

You have to remeber he never actually had an injury. It was a preventative operation that would have been completed via Keyhole surgery on an already fully operational knee. My wife who is a physio for the NHS says he should recover very quickly from the actual operation. I suppose the time consuming part is getting back to a match fitness. But she was sayiing it is very possible he is back to full fitness by November.

Is there any info on this game? Who scored for us?

I thought some of the lay off headers Scott made in the second half were outstanding. Each time it almost resulted in a goal for Hylton.

Ilic is a superb footballer. Looks a real find. Polworth also was excellent. Scott starting to look like the real deal.

Based on us almost having a new team to pick from, what would be your starting 11? Carson Carrol Hartley Dunne Tait Sloth Campbell Grimshaw Ilic Long Seedorf I honestly just made all that up, but when you look at the squad now we have a huge amount to choose from. And if Tanner is back fit and Turnbull is back before Christmas then it’s looking very promising.

I’m offended that your offended by my offensive quote about offensive Tory posh cunts. I threw in a political curve ball at the end there to make it a bit more offensive to the offended.

Exactly. Stick to the boats you posh cunts.

These guys all might be shite, but there is no doubt we have the coolest looking squad in the SPL. Mega Bar won't know whats hit it.

Stevie May? Nope.

Craigan will never be back at fir park. Ever.

Right guys what I’ve heard is that Southampton have made a bid matching Celtics offer.

Heard from a few people that Man City have asked Motherwell to be kept up to date with his transfer developments.

Rumours of Man City folks...

As I say, if's and buts. I would love him to stay, but I think Motherwell as a business are looking at the long game and the huge difference the money would make to the club. As you say though plently more fish in the sea!

This could be a disaster for Motherwell as if the deal falls through, then no other club could be willing to pay the £3 million. Might mean he stays with us for another season or the club have to accept a lower offer. All ifs and buts i suppose.

Fair enough, but we don’t know what the other bids were like. Maybe they got 9 bids of around the million mark and then Celtic have came in with 3. As a club I just don’t think that is something we can turn down.

Scott Brown from Hibs to Celtic was around the 4 million mark I think.
