MelvinBragg Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 The thought strikes me that four of the most senior players should be able to tell the young players that the grass is not always greener elsewhere. Craigan, Lasley and Hammell all left Motherwell and ended up coming back for various reasons. Sutton went down to England for a bigger pay packet and it didn't work out and he found himself back in the SPL. Or is someone advising these guys to leave in order to safeguard their own place in the squad. Just a thought... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatcalf Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 I'll relax once all the above have actually signed the contracts put in front of them! You'll never relax milo, there will always be something potentially round the corner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 The whole philosophy of a club like ours is to develop young players and sell them on. Some young players will see the advantage of sticking around Fir Park for a few years, some will think its better to move on sooner. Some will develop into great players, some will disappear into the lower leagues or out of the game altogether. There is no use in us worrying about who stays and who goes - you can't force anyone to sign a contract. However, there will always be others ready to take their place. Who would have thought, for example, that we would replace Quinn with the former French U-21 Captain? ' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
