supermarv Posted January 8, 2020 Report Share Posted January 8, 2020 Purely based on boredom and us needing a striker, was looking through again and came across Liam McAlinden ex Wolves player and dwindled down the leagues. Ended up at Halifax Town this season on a short-term contract until now and he’s now out of contract and available to sign for free. 10 goals so far this season and attracting the interest of league 1 clubs. So I’m going to suggest we may be interested. Also a former Northern Ireland and ROI u21 international... time will tell. Another attacking option to look at may be Josh Koroma from Huddersfield, very talented but struggled for game time, very successful time at Leyton Orient last few seasons and only 21 so could see us maybe looking at a loan for him.

I've never bothered trying to dig into it, but I often used to get about a 20 or 30 second delay before the page loads on my laptop, but that has improved recently. On my phone, using the Brave browser (which is a Chrome variant), it's a bit hit and miss if anything loads. Probably some dodgy javascript slowing things down. It does feel overloaded with unnecessary dynamic content and definitely not optimised for mobile devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try clearing your cache perhaps. After I did originsll that it's generally fine. The odd white page but refreshing usually gets rid.

Long, 24, arrived from Blackpool in the summer and has played a big part in Well’s push into third. Boss Stephen Robinson wants the striker to continue his development at Fir Park and sign for at least next season. While Grimshaw, in his second spell at the club, has really lifted his game since a switch to right-back and is on the verge of agreeing a new two-year deal.

Have to say I've never had any problem with the new fishel site, on either my laptop or my phone. Just looked at it again now on both, and it loaded fine... maybe I just have the right combination of ad and tracker blockers to make it work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ If it's only the fixture list you want, you can just Google "motherwell fixtures" -- gives you a nice list that even includes links to the YouTube highlights of previous games. (Would be nice if the fishel site did that too.) There's also the SPFL page at https://spfl.co.uk/clubs/motherwell/fixtures (but I do have to turn of some my blockers to get that to load). In the past I've also used https://fixtur.es/en/team/motherwell to add them directly to my calendar, but it didn't seem to cope with rescheduled matches very well, even though it claims it does.

Obviously the football's not nonsense and I am just as brave with my wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiderpig Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 I see Kyle Lafferty is available, might be worth a punt, big target man, knows where the goals are could be what we are looking for if the money is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say they can have him normally, but I’ll win quite a bit of money if Sunderland can get up the league, so I’m suggesting we take one for the team here and sign him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supermarv Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 May not seem exciting but I have watched him a couple times for Bournemouth 21s (I like Bournemouth) and he was one of the players to really stand out. Lightning quick and was scoring for fun, in his loans he seems to have been played as more of a winger. Scored 2 screamers for Killie and did Okay for them, also had good games for Gillingham in spells. Wouldn’t be a bad addition for the second half of the season and wouldn’t cost much at all.

Kmcalpin Posted January 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 As I undersand it, we had sufficient cash to bring in a striker last summer, if the right man became available. Given that we didn't and we're now several months further on surely that "reserved" sum will have grown slightly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
