I'd be amazed if we hold onto McCall after 2014/15 season.

Does Law not fall into that category? Difficult to tell I suppose until he gets a run out.

Quite likely. There is also a case for McCall saying "we don't have any more money to sign new players" just before signing a new player.

Hoping one of the U20s might do that. Dom Thomas seems to be a bit of a left-mid phenom.

Sounds like more PR from the "Buy your season ticket" campaign.

Damn. Looks like Ainsworth not signing is our last chance of misery and panic. Maybe McCall can resign and give us something to discuss over the summer.

Aye, it never ceases to amaze me how precious some footballers are when they are made redundant. I imagine almost every poster on here has been affected by lay-offs at some time in their life (twice directly for me), and I'll bet none of us went greetin' to the press or bawlin' our eyes out to whoever would listen about how unfair it was. It's a job. Sometimes you lose your job. Then you need to find a new job.

It's possible to travel to new places (including warm ones) even when Motherwell aren't playing there.

Not long after the Aberdeen game, Las said in an interview that the offer had been made and there were just a few details to be looked at. So hopefully that is still the case.

I think most contracts expire May 31st.

I doubt 2 or 3 seasons in the lower leagues appeals to Las at this stage of his career.

Another one in the long line of "neds with talent" that have let their skills go to waste.

Never any need to worry about the stories on here.

Thinking about a deal you have been offered and/or negotiating the finer points, all before the deadline you have been set, isn't exactly dithering. Or should we tell Lasley to fuck off too for not having signed already? If nothing else, it shows the rumour of Ainsworth having already signed for an MLS team wasn't true.

I guess they must have given him that big cut of the money he demanded from the profits of his Aberdeen goal.

That's just giving the Motherwell TV DVDs to McCall The job has seems very high falutin' now. Did 'Flow not get it for taking some videos of McGhee's pre-season jolly?

And getting paid good wages to play a game doesn't come close to the much used and abused term of 'heroic'.

Heard from who? I know this is a rumours thread, but people claiming to know the details of alleged outrageous contract demands should be named and shamed.

That would be a bit of a trek for a pre-season. Couldn't get much further west in the US unless you go to Hawaii.

Aye, I'd take him for that. 2k a week is within our wage structure from what I can tell.

Have we not offered him a contract then? Given that McCall said the contract offers to the U20s were made a few weeks ago, I'd be surprised if Leitch was omitted.

Aye, we really need to put players in a locked room and beat them up until they sign contracts. I thought contracts didn't expire until May 31 anyway.

That works for me.

Buckfast Steelmen.

Making players (which we also do) isn't going to reduce our gate prices.
