Of course. But we might not get any other offers which is why the well society have to think about how we raise extra funds. Some fans are happy with the way we operate just now and that's ok. But some of the same fans aren't happy that we finish 8th or 9th. We can just carry on as we are. But at some point some fans might start asking why we turned down investment - because 2 million quid is better than what we've been offered to date - nothing. That doesn't mean I support the bid but I can understand why fans want something to change.

I've seen comments about how folk have never seen Motherwell fans so divided. I don't think there's anything wrong with different opinions. I'm not going to share someone's opinion on investment just because I support Motherwell and they do as well. Some fans think the current way of working is ok and others don't. That's ok as far as I'm concerned.

I've been a member for six years and I don't pay that much in because I don't have lots of cash spare. I'm a bit uncomfortable with some of the stuff I've seen lately on twitter. The well society board have every right not to want outside investment but some of them were on twitter telling people to vote no before details had been made public. Months ago. Fan ownership is great but the well society have been practically invisible for too long. That's my view. I basically think the well society have been too anonymous for too long and that's very likely not their fault if others at the club didn't back them - but it's not good either.

Would the Well Society's vision and strategic plan have been made available to fans/supporters if there hadn't been this speculation about an outside investment bid?

Hopefully there will be a few more in the door before then

I think the 3 who resigned were in favour of the outside investment package. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong

That's Balmer announced.

Apparently it was the club that set that value.

Aye. Folk calling him names while the discussion which he's part of is taking place.

It's on social media

Yeah. The guy doesn't deserve abuse whether people are unhappy or not.

It wasn't me that said that. I quoted someone who did.

Don't think I said anything to the effect anywhere that I thought the club should be handed over for a pittance. All I said was I'd make my mind up when I get a chance to read it more closely and I'd make my own mind up. As I said in my last post I'm currently in hospital and dealing with other things as well and haven't had time to look at it properly.

I've not had the time to look at it closely yet as I'm in hospital just now and trying to finish off a uni essay that needs to be submitted by midnight or I fail my module. 😬 (Thankfully I had most of it written before coming in). Once I've got that in I'll have a better look.

Well yeah. People can vote as they please but if the well society are saying no to this - then do they have their own proposal? Sure it was said a couple of months ago they were working on one. Folk need to vote as they see fit. I haven't looked at the statement yet but I'm not going to be voting yes or no based on what the well society think or be influenced over what folks on social media think.

It's in the link on the story on Facebook and twitter. It doesn't say.

Yeah. Glad to see he's signed on till after the euros so we can get some cash.

I think he's had more than most to be fair. I do hope he does well though

I don't agree re Casey. Mugabi was good when he was on his game but when he was off he was a bombscare. He's the weakest out of the defence in my view. He gave it everything for the club but I don't think he was good enough.

That's why I asked earlier because another poster said he wasn't offered a new contract but the official site said different

Why did it say on the official site that a new offer had been made?

How do you know he's going to St Mirren?

Yeah. Would think it will be one or the other.

Possibly Dundee Utd? That was the rumour doing the rounds.

That's Bevis leaving. Just been announced on Twitter
