Haggischomper Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 7/8 goals is a huge ask in 12 games Maxywell. Doubt he/we get near that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Bezzer! Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 I'm now going for 1-0 us on Sat I understand the 1 but don't understand the 0! Hopefully McDonald comes in and does a 'Willie Falconer'. 7/8 goals is a bit much to ask but 4/5 goals could be the difference between escape and a whole lot of trouble. Too much to ask for a 'Mickey Weir' and a retina damaging yellow kit as well? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC'd Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 I assume he still has his petulant streak and we can expect the usual silly bookings and suspensions when we really don't them. He may have changed but I think it's part of the Scott Mcdonald package. So no different to Ojamaa's petulance, silly bookings and suspensions then? Least McDonald's flaws brings with him goals.

maplewell Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Absolutely delighted by this just need to get that Steve McDonald back now and we're set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milo Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 McDonald is easily one of the best players I've ever seen in a Motherwell jersey and on the face of it this is a bit of a coup to get him back. Players with proven ability like McDonald and Pearson (rather than Straker etc) are the players that we need right now. I fear it's too late to save us though.

CoF Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Could potentially be a fantastic signing however an average goal ratio of one in ten at Millwall could be telling. He still needs players to feed him and that's exactly where we are lacking. If we had effective suppliers Sutton would be banging them in, but we don't. Hope I'm completely wrong, but we don't know how to create chances, we don't get balls in the box and we generally don't know how to play in the final 3rd. That said, he does have the potential to be the creative spark we're lacking. Saturday will be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiddy Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 it would be great to see him banging them away for us ,,,,, but we have problems at the other end to also sort out , but heres hoping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizoxy Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 He was playing in midfield for Millwall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one m in motherwell Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Yeah, he's more of an attacking mid than a striker these days. I can see him perhaps taking on more of an Ojamaa role, sitting just behind Sutton? I'd always seen that as being Erwin's best role, but Skippy's experience could be exactly what we need. Once Hammell and Pearson are fit, we've got a good spine of experience through the team, including Skippy, Las and Sutton in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobey_Dosser Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Think it's pretty clear from his press conference that he's up here to play as a striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The African Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 At least we are trying something! We still have hope and a chance we can turn things around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Think it's pretty clear from his press conference that he's up here to play as a striker. Thought that was crystal clear as well. He mentioned in 2/3 times at the start of his press conference, which leads me to believe that we will go with 2 up top! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ya Bezzer! Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Think it's pretty clear from his press conference that he's up here to play as a striker. He also said he's matured and he's more a team player now. I hope he's just saying that. We need him to be a greedy, selfish wee bastard like the first time he was here!

MFCL84 Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Have to say that the signing of Scott McDonald shows that the club are real serious about trying to stay in the top league. Certainly pulling out all the stops. Just hope that it all clicks into place tomorrow. I'm actually looking forward to the game tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well 4 Europe Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Luke Watt signs a new contract until 2018. Good bit of business by the club. The boy's looked a good player when used this season, especially considering he's only 17 and was being played out of position. Hopefully Thomas and Erwin to follow soon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzyB Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Pleasantly suprised at the length of contract as well (mind he is only 17/18). We're used to a maximum of 2 years. Hopefully we get Thomas/Erwin/Leitch signed up for 3/4 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 So, he is a right back, can't have too many of them, good move. Didn't think he showed a lot of pace when I saw him but he stood up well to the task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
