Randolph, law and higdon have to be in the team of the year!

 

If asked before, is their a medal for league runner up? I know normally it's not important, but it's a great achievement for Motherwell, far better than runner up in a cup!

 

do not see anything in the SPL rules about runners up

 

and the SPL roll of honour, doesn't acknowledge runners up so I doubt its ever had any formal placing

 

If it were to happen I'm sure it would go on players CV's so to speak, along Euro appearances etc

Award-winner Nicky Law ponders future at Motherwell

Scottish Premier League player of the month Nicky Law once before turned down a contract with manager Stuart McCall and is loathe to do so again.

 

That is despite the 25-year-old Motherwell midfielder being linked with a move to Rangers when his contract expires in the summer.

 

"I was at Bradford when he was there and I had the choice to stay," he said.

 

"The hardest thing I've had to do in my career was ringing the manager to tell him I was going to sign for Rotherham."

 

With McCall having already been named manager of the month after an undefeated March, Law picked up the Clydesdale Bank's top player award.

But, despite their fine run leading Well to second place in the table, the Englishman is being linked with a move down the leagues to Third Division champions Rangers after Ally McCoist named him as a signing target.

 

"There has been no contact," said Law. "I saw what their manager said, but that was it, a link with a big club.

 

"I made the point at the time that I had nine big games to go and now we have five.

 

"What I will concentrate on is getting Motherwell to stay in second place and, at the end of the season, I will look at my options then and I certainly haven't ruled out staying either.

 

"I will have a good chat with the manager and I will certainly think about staying."

 

Law worked under McCall at Sheffield United and on loan at Bradford City and rejected the chance to make the move to Valley Parade permanent.

 

"It would certainly be as difficult to do that again because we have a really close working relationship," said the midfielder who has scored six goals this season.

 

"He has been such a huge help to me and helped my game on again in the two years I have been there.

 

"So he is the biggest thing I will be thinking about at the end of the season."

Although we all know Randolph is a fine keeper, I doubt he'll be in many other people's team of the year. Most folk will just look at the fact we've had fewer clean sheets than any team other than Dundee, and think he must be crap. Which is fine by me :)

Actually you'd be wrong numpty. On almost topic I have seen on the matter most people only put Forster ahead of him as "best" keeper in the SPL. Some even argue the only reason for that is because one plays for Celtic, making him "must be better than anything else" than actual ability.

The thought they might do that has certainly crossed my mind a few times. It would make sense for them and give him the coverage he wants to keep in the running for an Ireland place.

 

Not that I want to see him returning to Fir Park as a Celtic player though.
