well fan for life Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 6 minutes ago, superward said: Doesn't make much sense to give Fox a year deal then loan him out though does it? Unless of course he got the deal on the proviso that if we got a couple of goalies in as planned (or one in and Carson stays) he would be loaned out with (you'd hope) Morton covering all the wages. So covering our backs a bit. Maybe it's just an insurance policy for if we accidentally throw Stevie Hammell's Cursed Amulet about again. We have a serviceable goalkeeper available to us that's out on loan and is having his wages (at least partially) covered. If the curse strikes again we can recall him at short notice I'd assume. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 I think Carson's last few unfortunate years have shaded folks opinion of him, he was unreal at times. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's it really. I mean, obviously I don't know but having seen what happened with Charlie Dunne when we "invited" him to pre-season for a kick-about (and he subsequently signed for St Mirren because of course you'd take the concrete offer) on reflection probably the most straightforward thing to do would be to offer Fox the year and get him in for pre-season as it means we've got a couple of serviceable goalkeepers over the summer. It could easily just be coincidence but Fox's new deal was confirmed after Charlie Taxi was announced as having taken up St Mirren's offer. We've obviously had Tom King in for a while, who I assumed was lined up in case the Kelly thing fell on its arse and there's the possibility that big Dejan just likes following random players at Lanarkshire football clubs but it'd appear we've had a couple of extra keepers around the place along with Carson, Fox, Morrison and Connelly. When you think about our general position as a club if another team came along and offered Fox first team football on a loan and that's what he wanted I doubt we'd stand in his way regardless of whether he'd just signed on for another year or not. It's a very different situation for a back-up goalkeeper compared to, say, Scott McDonald when Australian clubs were chapping us up. Sort of related, Nixon's got King headed to Salford now.

Phillips455 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 If we can't get a Livi player then their kit will do. It looks alright in the pictures, but it doesn't beat the previous Black kit that we had. Still it s a bit different and atleast it isn't paint just being slapped onto a shirt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al B Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 That away top is absolutely honkin. Genuinely hoped we'd fired our Livi obsession into the sea. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowsdower Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Some days it's a kid eating a piece, and others it's Chiellamie (giving this one a wee try) near snapping his neck to Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Love our content. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blink182 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Always feel something different about away tops should be tried. Doesn't feel very "Motherwelly" though. Not bad a bit of claret and I think it may have been a classic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 My instant reaction is that I *really* like that away top and I haven't liked any of our black kits in the past. It does have a West Lothian-y feel to it but I can live with that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 As everyone's said...it's a Livi shirt innit. I mean, it's fine. It's not exactly a vintage year but they've really just changed the colours of the 15/16 away shirt and added a bit of fading to the pinstripes. And I liked the 15/16 away shirt. So there's that. I'll buy it at some point because I'm an absolute fucking simp (and also we generally use white or black shirts as colours for our 7s games) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'WellDel Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 One thing that could have instantly improved that kit is if it actually was Livi's and we'd punted the model back there.... It's a no from me, I'm afraid. All for experimenting and changing things up, but not getting a 'Motherwell' feel from it at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
