Well Up For It! Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Just been chatting to work colleague (St. Johnstone fan) and as well as discussing our shit form she mentioned Pearson returning is a good signing for us. Then she added that Motherwell have a habit of bringing former players back to the club. Never really thought about it before, but we do! Can think of a good who who have had two spells in my 30years alone. Anyway, thought I'd post it here and see if we can add to the list and discuss who was the best "resigning"/who would you like to have back, etc, etc. Anything to bring a bit of a distraction on here with the current doom and gloom! Ones I can think of: Stephen Pearson James McFadden Keith Lasley Stevie Hammell Phil O'Donnell Brian McClair John Sutton Henrik Ojamaa Gunnar Neilson Stephen Hughes Stephen Craigan Alex Burns George Burley (?) Fraser Wishart Gregor Steven (?) Anymore? McFadden returning probably caused me the greatest level of excitement, but probably best returning servant has to be Lasley or Hammell.

Fraser Kerr Scott Leitch Dan Twardzik All left and came back... Craigan, O'Donnell, Lasley and Hammell all tremendous when they came back. I suspect that James McFadden, while he wasn't the same player, had a positive impact on the squad last season as you could see him talking players through games.

DEWELL Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Most players and managers to be fair when they leave say good things about MFC and how good a place it is to work. Just wish we could get some more in to help us out just now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ropy Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 If we are counting non-playing roles then Wullie P and Stevie Kirk came back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacol Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 If non playing staff count then, Bobby Watson (player then later manager) Craig Brown (assistant then manager) Tam Forsyth (player then assistant) Kenny Black (player then assistant) Willie McLean (manager then assistant) Pat Quinn ( player then assistant ) I'm sure there are many more of this ilk.
