  1. Mcginn is a RCB in a three, and maybe a right back in a 4, but we're not going to a 4 any time soon. He could definitely function as a wing back, but we are obviously looking for more pace there. SOD looks like he's moving into that RCB role as well, and he fared a lot better out there, so I can see why we want cover at wing back, especially when we expect them to be all action, so having options on the bench is very useful. Also, someone is totally going to get injured.
  2. Aaron Chapman is probably the worst player I've seen. He looked genuinely surprised every time he managed to stop the ball, and looked like he was waiting for Al to tell him who's body he just leapt into. McLean was manager when I started watching us, so based on that period onwards, I'd have to go with Hammell as our worst manager. He was just clueless, and having Kerr as assistant was even worse. McLeish wasn't great, but that era had some great players and moments, so I can't put him in with the worst.
  3. Hope the gig was worth it at least. Broken noses arent fun, but subsequent ones get easier. As far as the back and forth goes, there's nothing wrong with arguing and getting heated sometimes, and it rarely gets too personal. Many of us have been on here for a couple of decades now (jeez-o) and the various shticks can get old, but at least we can agree that Oli Shaw is shite.
  4. Brophy is a goal every 4.7 games over 290 games. Shaw is a goal every 3.9 games over 187 games.
  5. Close, but probably a couple of paragraphs short of being authentic SK.
  6. Theres lots of things posted online, none of it is guaranteed to be true. Clubs don't post the salaries of individual players, and players don't generally disclose their salaries. Unless you think that some guy just called up each club/player to get this information, and they just handed it over, where do you think the info comes from? These salaries are just guesses, and im not even sure if they're educated ones, and the fact that the linked list is players from all clubs makes it even less likely that this is real.
  7. Whether you think what companies pay their employees should be secret or not is irrelevant, it generally is. I'd be pissed if my company posted my salary for everyone to see, and they would be equally annoyed if I went around posting what I got paid. Anything you see online in this respect is most likely someone's guess.
  8. Those lists online are unlikely to be real, probably copied from Football Manager or something like that. How would that information get into the public domain?
  9. The only link we have with nahmani is that his loan is ending at st Mirren, and some vague comment that his parent club could loan him somewhere else, including Scotland. We haven't been mentioned other than forum speculation.
  10. I'm more than happy with Bair's contribution so far, although my expectations were similarly low. When we signed him I assumed we saw a big athlete and hoped we could teach him enough football to be useful, and that's kind of what we've done. I'd say that Bair has moved on a bit from being just a "project" but he would benefit from having a striker near him. We are doing that thing that motherwell does. Bring in a player that no one else wanted, make him look good enough that another club will bite and give us money, then cancel the magic spell the minute the money hits the bank. Any questions? Ask Aberdeen.
  11. St J are below us in the league after the same number of games, and we're the worst team to ever play the game with a total diddy gobshite manager apparently, and haven't even bothered to sign three strikers. Every manager below us should be fired.
  12. Paul mcginn for me. Class act today.
  13. You have to take each game in isolation, and with that, a point there is never terrible, especially with the squad situation. We were a shambles for their goal, and looked so brittle from set pieces. It looked miles offside to me, and the dodgy var image they showed was not convincing in the slightest. The ref was a fucking clown all game. Outside of that we were the better team, but only managed to cut them open a couple of times, in each case with excellent, fast, passing moves. But we paid the price for having just one striker. Paton will get stick, but he and spittal were constantly trying to make something happen, and put in a power of work. Butcher looked better, but has to cut out the nonchalance on the ball, as it nearly cost us dearly. Halliday was a calm presence, but we didn't get him involved enough, and Nicholson looks handy. Miller is a class act. Shout out to Mcginn, he was excellent.
  14. Filter: - Track record of scoring goals - No previous injuries - Tries hard - We can afford - Wants to play for motherwell - Motherwell fans know - Motherwell fans like Results: Ha ha ha
  15. Not sure if we can cancel the deal, because that would put him out for the season since he's played for us and Fleetwood. I know 3 months is effectively the season, but there would still be games left.
  16. Tierney's legs are made of wet toilet paper tubes. Must be a name thing. It's a shame because I liked him.
  17. I think Wilkinson left prior to the Biereth recall. It's a tricky one as well, he wanted to move closer to home, and while playing out the season with us may have made sense, as soon as another club is interested it would have been difficult to say no and risk having an unsettled player going through the motions during a relegation fight.
  18. Nothing mind blowing there. It's a sellers market in January, and find me a team that doesn't want a striker.
  19. Why would the manager appoint the head of recruitment? That should be the board/ceo's job with some input from the manager at best.
  20. Is the point of a head of recruitment not to offer continuity in that area regardless of who the manager is? As such, do we really want the manager being the one responsible for hiring the HoR?
  21. Mainly a left winger, so chances are he'd be in the spot Gent played in against Alloa. There was mention of him having played through the middle recently, but most of his games have been out wide. So 3 of our 4 signings so far are lefties, which is my favorite footedness.
  22. That would make more sense, we tend to do a decent job keeping trialists and unsigned players out of our posted pics and videos.
