AlmostFrazzled Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Marc Fitzpatrick is probably the most mis-treated player by the fans in my time watching Motherwell. Done his pan in every game, was an important part of a very good team and gave us one of our best moments ever. And somehow his face didn't fit and he got absolute pelters every week. Regardless of his standing with the support, that winner at Easter Road was wild. Limbs everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 I liked Fitzy from an effort point of view. But he was simply not good enough for the top level in Scotland. Thats it in a nutshell. His wonder goal at Easter Road raised fan expectations to an unrealistic level and it was simply not typical of his style of play. The same was also true of Shaun Fagan. Fitzy was an unassuming player who did a lot of unnoticed spade work and wasn't in any way a flair player. Was he unfairly released? Well what has he done since leaving us? That tells its own story. The same could also be said of Jack Leitch. I believe he's now playing at Airdrie and good luck to him. Seemingly not good enough for a Championship team, although he does have most of his career ahead of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Made Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Just seen the highlights of the Birmingham/Sheffield Wednesday game with Juke scoring a late winner. All 3 goals scored by players who not too long ago were playin in the SPL. Hooper for Wednesday, Donaldson and Juke for Birmingham. Chris Humphrey with an own goal as well.

Juke's first goal since he scored against Birmingham for Bolton in May 2014. Decent enough striker but he does seem to go on really long runs without a goal throughout his career (although he had only played 30+ games during this drought).

Decent enough striker but he does seem to go on really long runs without a goal throughout his career (although he had only played 30+ games during this drought). His drought at Burnley was pretty severe. Didn't manage a single goal for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigwellfan Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Don't know if it's been mentioned elsewhere but Fraser Kerr is now turning out for Stenhousemuir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_P Posted September 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Turned into a goal machine too. I noticed he scored late on against Airdrie then was almost immediately sent off. I have it in my minds eye him scoring for Stenny, running the length of the field to give the Section B a Higdonesque GIRUY before taking his leave to a standing ovation. Dare say in reality it was a shade more mundane... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superward Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Not sure where to post this...not a former player but rather than starting a new thread. Moore still having problems with his concussion. May be a while til we see McHugh. http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/another-injury-setback-ayr-united-8932315 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del_Superwell Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Moores problem was he got the head injury then decided to play on for a while, thus resulting in double vision apparently so he hasn't helped himself in this situation.

Was he pressurised to play? Some managers don't like players who play it safe with injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilwell86 Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Nathan Thomas seems to have really hit the ground running for Hartlepool, I remember there being a lot of unhappy Plymouth fans when he left as well, I'm sure his problem though was his attitude ?

Anyway, banging in goals for fun now....every Hartlepool goal of month contender belongs to him I presume he scored all their goals in September? It must be a bit tongue in cheek, as 2 of them were tap ins and one, possibly 2 were crosses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
