Robinson mentions in the club podcast that we received a good fee for Hastie. So sounds done. The 1.7m is correct but it's the posted profit from 17/18, not this year - https://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/2018/11/28/2017-18-financial-results-announced/

Superb. 4 scud.

It's taking a bit longer to come back than estimated, for whatever reason. I'm not sure there is any need for the conspiracy theory stuff. The club have always been tight lipped about it. Now, if we are looking conspiracy and stuff going on behind the scenes hop over and look at Oxford just making a bid for Chris Cadden...

Official site update now showing Turnbull as hopefully ready Spring 2020...

Everything is total conjecture unless the poster knows the terms of the contract. 120k seems a decent stab in the dark from a journo to be honest given our likelihood to not stand in the managers way of a 'big' club come calling.

Aye, not the best from Maguire there on both goal, but not the only one at fault it has to be said. Should have tracked the run better on the first and wasn't strong enough at the second. The second Long really lost the Hibs wide player to allow the cross but I'm not sure why Long was even back there tracking anyway! Still well in it. We'll score again I think but can we score two and not concede?!

Super Liam Polworth. Had to be after all that chat this week!

He was being bought for the Nowrwich U23s so not sure how much experience he'd have got to be fair. I'd quite like to just see him back playing for us before any transfer chat.

Gillespie Grimmy Gallagher Hartley Carrol Donnelly Campbell Polworth Scott Long Seedorf - Defence picks itself for me. - Donnelly, Campbell and Polworth are a good mix in midfield so no need to disrupt. - I'd give Scott a start again. - Would be good to alter the sub strategy. Maybe bring in Semple, or Sloth (!)for Polworth perhaps when time allows. I also demand to see the Mazinga

Good wee feature on The Terrace last night about a mindset coach. Chris Cadden talking about using him when st Motherwell.

Usually I also have the same view. But the u21s only have 1 match this international break, and it's at home tonight. So don't think there is much to worry about on the jaded front.

Tait's pace is affecting both his defensive and attacking skills unfortunately. I have been and am a huge fan but it is beginning to remind me of the season Corrigan started to go down hill after a few sterling seasons.

Yep, spot on. Everyone just seemed off it today Disappointing but it's going to happen with a relatively young and new team. A song as it doesn't become a trend.

Back to light training this week I've heard.

Aberdeen have a few out injured and suspended. So, I'm hoping for a win here. For me, I'd go: Gillespie Grimshaw Gallagher Hartley Carrol Campbell Polworth MaGuire Scott Long Seedorf Carrol for Tait and Long for Cole the changes. Carrol has played well when not suspended and gives us good pace. Tait still a bit suspect but he played a lot better in the last game so it's close between them. Long I think could be excellent with a run in the team. To me looks a great striker. Cole offers a bit more physicality though. Again, close. 3-1 'Well

Back to light training after his hols to Tenerife I heard?

Dont think we will sell any 'assets' in January at all. Outside chance Turnbull. Evens a couple of the short term/1 year deal chaps who haven't worked out by that point.

The amount of draws they had was incredible. My bet 365 account is proof!

Dont think so necessarily, just because he's fit again himself.

Cooper injured, Devlin will be ahead of Gallagher and Findlay though I thinks.

Great player for us. A congested area in the national team though with so many to choose from. Turnbull will even probably struggle.

Yep.

Doubt he will get the nod. Berra wont be close. Clarke will have Cooper, Hanley, Mulgrew in for sure. Hes also talked up Devlin before too so I expect him there to make 4 centre backs. Bates perhaps an outside chance given hes been in squads before. Souttar, McKenna and Halkett all out injured would be the first 3 picks I'd think. So either way, whatever he picks this international break I doubt will be what we will see next year in the playoff. Personally I wouldnt let Hanley near a football and it dumbfounds me to this day he has made a living in the game.

Yep.

Not a penalty and not a red card for Donnelly for me. That was my view at the time but the highlights back that up imo. Ref deg didnt see the sending off - was the lino who called it. Thought the ref had a poor game throughout. I am usually up for letting the game flow and dont mind a tackle. But he should have had the yellow card out a lot more. Polworth was getting volleyed up and down the park and Davidson just seemed to be allowed to do what he wanted. Davidson shold have had a booking before he eventually got it for handbags with Polworth and then would have walked at that point... That aside, happy with the win up there. Onwards.
