That was the goal where Bevis was taken out in the build up and was punch drunk in the box trying to defend it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 The club came to an agreement with MLS / Columbus Crew to settle the case with Chris Cadden that has allowed Motherwell FC to retain attractive on-going economic rights. A sell on from Hibs? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YassinMoutaouakil Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I mind laughing with my brother at the St Mirren stadium announcer for giving Foley a proper cringeworthy nickname when reading the lineups, think it was "Captain Fantastic" or something along those lines. Was less funny when he was putting them 4-1 up at Fir Park a few weeks later mind 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 21 points to play for in February is absolutely mental btw, I'm quite looking forward to it though. Going to stick my neck on the line and say we'll be realistically, though not mathematically, safe by the split. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't blame him for bailing. He was becoming like a Lanarkshire version of Sisyphis having to endlessly rebuild the squad with an ever diminishing budget. Listened to the podcast last night. Tbh I was just expecting a 5-10 minute interview I didn't expect him to be on for the full hour or whatever it was. In saying that I don't think there was anything in it that was particularly surprising. Without wanting to turn Robinson into some Tommy Wright/St Johnstone figure despite him no longer being manager this is still his mess so some of what he was saying still seems relevant. Absolutely don't blame him for not fancying another rebuild and even the stuff about players looking at pre-contracts at other clubs or having said they're planning on leaving in the summer - that's not really news is it? You look at the number of players who left/moved on during/at the end of the 18/19 season (Rose, McHugh, Aldred, Cadden etc) and it's kind of to be expected given the whole "we'll give you a platform to progress your career" sales pitch. I mean, fair play to guys like Tait, Kipré, Dunne, Bowman, Grimshaw, Carson, Donnelly, Carroll and especially Turnbull who did actually extend their contracts after having been first team regulars. Flat out saying "No" when Currie asked him if he regretted his criticism of the players was a LOL. I can't imagine who he's talking about in saying that "for some players Motherwell was their last option" and that the lesson he's learned is that if a player doesn't really want to be at the club then don't sign them. His point about the club having never asked players to take a pay cut over the last year wasn't surprising as if they had it'd probably have been public but it was kind of new information to have it clarified (granted they had been furloughed but still...) All in all everything about this season seems to have been a shite time for everyone concerned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 People have taken exception to his reference to putting a young boy on before Dundee Utd scored. I can’t remember the actual wording but I didn’t think he was throwing Cornelius under the bus. He needs to accept that he made the substitution when he had other options. If we had been 2-0 up it wouldn’t be getting discussed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had been 2-0 up it wouldn’t be getting discussed. I didn't really see much about the comment to take exception to. The quote was: Quote Dundee United on Boxing Day, we were winning, we were excellent, we were playing some super football. If we'd won 3 or 4 nil I don't think there would have been any complaints from Dundee United. We end up losing a goal in the last minute after bringing a young player on. You know, that's what Motherwell are we have to put the young boys in so rightly or wrongly. You never throw these kids under the bus you've got to protect them and you've ultimately got to take the blame on it. I mean, he's literally saying he takes the blame for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
