....then go out to a First Division team in the next round

Hope though that with this match being on a Sunday might encourage a few more to attend. In saying that I take it this match is on TV?

Why hasn't Fergie helped out Watty as well? Fergie sends his players (in Britain) to the EPL or Championship.

Hope so. Got a fair amount for our home game versus Odense. Whilst this match is not as unique or perhaps even as exciting (and expectations being different) we *should* be able to sell that amount. Sunday afternoon is a bit better than a Wednesday night as well.

Getting close imo. Motherwell must be confident of other interested parties. £100,000 is not too shabby when you consider we will get nowt for him in May.

£20 as well. Was fully expecting £25!

Probably been getting bombarded with messages from Motherwell and Aberdeen fans for last three days

For recent examples Bob Malcolm, Cillian Sheridan, and, Calum Elliot, were garbage imo. again.

Strengthen other areas of the team though? I hope what they are really saying is "We made a boo boo with Gow's wages and now realise we can bring in two players for what we were paying him. One will be another striker".

Result. See ya Gow!

Not bad actually but I'll say one thing......you'll not get much support in Paisley, Perth, or, Kilmarnock that's for sure.

Thing is Rex if you do go to the Celtic game you will be in a ground that has more away fans than home supporters, have an 'atmosphere' that is polluted with sectarian bile and if you are in the POD Stand you will have to share toilet and kiosk facilities with these cretins.......an accident waiting to happen. Far too much money to waste on that experience. Hibs would be a totally different experience and probably a much better game of football. Plus hospitality will be a good bit cheaper.

Now you're talking. Make my weekend that would.

Hmmm playing hardball with an EPL club over a new contract when he has achieved what exactly? Not sure if this is true or not but I don't think Blackman is in a great position to 'demand' anything. Good player but right now not good enough for the EPL. Few years? Who knows. I don't think he will be back at Motherwell. I just don't want to see him with Aberdeen. I would hate it infact. Hibs I couldn't care less about.

I'd imagine 'we' like the idea of playing the OF four times at home over a season but not the very real threat of relegation from a 10 team league. Decisions, decisions.

Reynolds (very likely due to rumours today) or Gow.

Hateley has two and a half years left on a three year deal. Port Vale are in a similar financial position to ourselves. I think it is safe to say that Hateley won't be at Port Vale soon for either financial or personal development reasons.

Oh, hello? I'm almost more interested and excited about him not going to Aberdeen than coming back here. Hate is so ugly. ......and if he thinks it is cold in Motherwell just wait till he gets a blast from that North Sea. I despise the vagueness (see above) that is the sheer self muttering of twitter.

In saying that every week that passes with this post not filled is more money saved and into the coffers to put towards our next Esteban Casagolda!

Gordon Durie.

Not sure of the quality they have but if McCoist steps up to take his place I'm sure he would be more than helpful. Would rather McCall still has some good ties/pals at Everton right enough.

Take in the Hibs game and avoid the Celtic one. That's my tuppence worth.

Someone told me (can't remember who) that he heard Walter Smith state that he would help McCall any way he could in his new managerial role. Would rather any loan deals came from England but could see one or two coming from Ibrox in the next year or so.

My main fear is we do a 'McGhee' and do our 'incoming deals' on the last day. Too many big games this month.

I'd suggest the annual yearly turnover for Motherwell, top to bottom, is pretty high and the majority of the money gets swallowed up this way. A football club that can't afford football players......and there are MANY like us.
