Motherwell FC - A Thread For All Seasons


Recommended Posts

Some top quality research , as always, in that Record piece, with them basically quoting The Sun as their source for the story!! 

Another journalistic low even for them to run with a story and giving the credit for it to their arch-rag. 

It looks very likely now with Burns reporting it as done too, though. An interesting appointment that I think could be a really good move. If he can add wisely in this window and get the current bunch of jobbers through this season with our top flight status intact, I'll genuinely look forward to seeing what he can do with a team of his own next season.

My pal from England says that Alexander’s teams are hard to beat, annoying to play against and his team Coventry used to regularly lose to them. He expects Alexander to sign some “absolute b*****ds”. Sounds like exactly what we need given our current situation.

It's interesting (ish) that he's bringing in another English lower league guy with him. Feel in these situations a manager who's new to the league tends to surround himself with a few guys that know it well. I know Alexander does consider himself Scottish so maybe he's been watching Sportscene every weekend for years and it's not really something to get worked up about either way but still, somewhat interesting.

Lasley will still be involved in some capacity with regards to the first team but Mo Ross is gone, which was rumoured him to be a bad egg at the club.

I love him already. Most of my favourite Motherwell teams have been the ones that are full of annoying wee dicks.

If I had a choice of watching sexy Motherwell or horrible-dirty-hammer-throwing-b*****d-Motherwell I would take the latter every time.

Depends on the results. If sexy Motherwell lose more often and hammer throwing win more often...then I am with you.

Mo Ross a bad egg? Who'd have thought?

Looks like the new boy is a shirker, not keen to take training tomorrow.

Or is the media team trying to get the perfect photo?

They can't get a good photo next to a Motherwell landmark for all the fog

Asked a boy who scouts the EFL, because I'm sad, and he says he sets teams up to keep clean sheets, will try and shitfest goals from set pieces, and prefers his CMs to be "battlers" than playmakers.

To think there were Motherwell fans on Twitter claiming theyd "rather be relegated than have TW as manager", because of his "negative" tactics...

Quite surprised and at the same time pleased with this appointment. 

We've gone for someone with managerial experience a decent reputation, not to mention a well respected name in the game. 

He's got a tough job on his hands but all the very best of luck to him and welcome to Fir Park.
