And this one is listed as streaming on MFC TV. So we should get a chance to enjoy it live this weekend.

Looking at Cadds goal celebration I think he might have been reading this thread.

I think he's one of the players Robinson was talking about that he brought in but can't play because he picked up injuries in training.

Different demographics when Bellshill maternity was the feeder for Lanarkshire clubs. The movement of players exploded long before the Bosman situation when clubs looked overseas for cheap options. The biggest driver was the removal of the maximum wage cap when, overnight, players could double or triple their wages by moving to a different club. That happened in the 50s when Scotland removed the cap before England. (I stayed at a B&B in Felixstowe for work and the landlord there was an ex Ipswich player. He moved to Falkirk when the wage cap was lifted as he could earn much more in Scotland. He played for the 1956/57 cup winning team all the way to the semis, then was dropped for the final; not that he mentioned that much!)

Not to defend Samson for one minute, but I'd rather give credit to Turnbull. I was watching the goal again on Alba and his shot dipped, swerved and bounced right in front of the keeper. A keeper's nightmare in those conditions. I've seen better goalies than Samson let those in - Darren Randolph when he was at West Ham, for example. So yes, Samson might have saved it, but Turnbull deserves credit for taking his chance.

Andy Rose on Mixlr gave it to Cadds too, but only just ahead of Turnbull.

Delighted he played Bigi and Turnbull together. With the right grafters beside them, they showed they are both capable of creating. Also nice to see that, sometimes, we made use of the well-kept St Mirren grass and passed the ball on the deck.

The few times I saw St Mirren last season they looked totally dependent on Lewis Morgan to win games for them. This season just backs up that notion.

Obviously just trying to impress his new team mates Sounded like he had the freedom of the right flank tonight - and made the most of it.

I think the posters here are secret members of the SFA from the "Aye, but" school of player development. If we don't think we can learn from a Spanish club who has graduated at least 2 players per season from the academy in the past 5 years, then we should just give up. It doesn't matter where the players came from, it matters how they made sure their talent was nurtured along the way.

Looks like Turnbull's shot had a lot of movement on it.

Not wrong. Cadden, though - get in.

So did Livi.

Need another 3 before I start feeling comfortable.

And one on target for us.

"Curtis Main takes a touch too many"

Not even for overseas subscribers it seems. I wish the web site didn't advertise audio only streams as if they were video.

It's the paid subscription site for viewers outside UK and Ireland. https://tv.motherwellfc.co.uk

I see it listed on the MFC TV website now, so looks like we should be good.

Happy to see Bigi and Turnbull both start. At least showing a little bit of creative ambition.

Aye, that too. I was just hoping it was a public relations spiel while he changes things behind the scenes. Unlikely, I know.

The bit where he didn't think much needed tweaked as far as systems were concerned? Or the bit where he said we didn't have the players to change it anyway? Not very inspiring.

He couldn't be worse than Main is right now. Plus he has a track record of scoring goals in teams that are playing like they are about to be relegated.

That's right. I think, at least part of the development fee, is still formula driven - depending on things like the level the signing team plays at. So as long as we don't do anything that prevents it being applied we should still get a few quid.
