Snap. I wonder how many other fans have reacted to this proposal in the same way. And good luck to yourself and wellfan on the new arrivals front.

"The design of our offer was always to give fans 50%+. Because there were discussions with lots of parties, and the actual governance of the Club isn't the easiest to understand, we landed where we did -- but if the main concern was keeping TWS, specifically, at 50%+, I'm sure smart people (not me) could sit in a room and solve it. Intention matters here." You'd think smart people would have realised how big a concern this was always going to be and solved it before putting the proposal forward.

Did the hoop problem not concern teams competing in Europe?

Taken in conjunction with yesterday's announcement, look out for missing plot posters going up on lamp posts around Fir Park.

Maybe some were working harder than others.

Exactly, that's the biggest question for me. Is it possible to have an exit strategy from a football club that doesn't leave either party taking a huge hit - other than flogging the club to someone else. The Well Society haven't a hope of buying back at the end of year 6 and the details of the end of year 2 option make it clear these investors do not intend to lose their money.

If I've read it correctly, the buy back option only runs till the end of year 2 - £650K being 2 years investment plus costs.

Sounds like a 5 year mission...

2 Theo Bairs and a Mars bar.

What expertise in running a football club is it bringing in?

I don't have a counter vision, but I know when I'm getting royally shafted.

Update on investment available. Or would be, if the links worked.

There's an post on Facebook that confirms he has. No idea how much we get or how it'll be split. Edit: it's on the official site too

Reports of Kelly's Motherwell demise were slightly premature, then.

Sounds like Bevis knew he was away after the last game, going by the wee video compilation.

In the event Blackburn made a decent offer, I'd like to see Gent back on loan as part of any deal. But, as others have said, it's not necessarily that simple.

Cheers 👍

To clarify - do we get a payout if he is?

True enough, we all love a moan. In fairness to them, the goalkeeper post isn't a million miles from the long discussions on here regarding Kelly's replacement, which brought up the gloved ghosts of seasons past.

If they've nothing new to post, it probabably is. Easily ignored.

Thanks for that. I probably read it in an old programme a while ago.

According to the man himself and Willie McLean, it was St Pauli. Said he knocked them back because they refused to pay him a signing on fee. I've a feeling we'd played them in a pre-season friendly, but that bit I might have imagined.

They offered £365,000 for Pettigrew. What's that worth now?

O'Donnell played more games for us than anyone apart from Spittal last season. As far as I can see, the only league game he took no part in was the final game. Whatever folk's personal opinions, it's clear what Kettlewell thinks of him, so I don't understand why it would come as a surprise to see him get another deal.
