Even not considering JT, Just and Watt, we should be able to field a team capable of beating HV
without too much thought, so, obviously, other options
Ox
JK Sods Moorman Longelo
Sparrow Priestman Fadinger
Said Thor RCC
Edit: forgot all about Vogt
With some Decent draws theres a possibility of making it to conference league stage. That would bring in some decent money and some excitement to the season. But you’re right in that premier league is top priority.
I think a lot of them enjoyed a smoke or two. I always remember John Martis walking up to fir park smoking. Put it out at the corner of Edward at and Fir Park St.
Perhaps he wanted to see what those players can do in game situations. He must already have a good idea on the first team players from video of last season.
I’m assuming Just will move on but will we have him back for a couple of European games? Or will he be on break after WC and straight to new pastures?
im assuming for Watt and others that they are continuing to be Motherwell’s players for the momemt and are part of the preseason training etc.
On the negative side we have to spend some of that money to get a replacement which will be a gamble for us. Will we finish lower down the table or go out of competitions ‘cause we miss him on the park, leading to loss of money?
Can’t really accurately assess the possible negative financial aspect of the situation but I think it Will all really be driven by Just amd his agent. Once the lure of a Much better pay day is up for grabs it’s hard to retain a player per contract amd keep them settled happy amd playing well.
It’s a very tricky time for the club although I’m hoping they have a lot more information than we do. Trying to determine who to bring in but not knowing how much you can spend, not sure who will be here for the new season or even who will be here initially, since our first competitive game is only 3 weeks away.
So much up in the air, an unenviable task.
