What a league. Cole Stockton has been linked with us for ages as well, and I think that's ex-Manchester United's Donald Love. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 2 hours ago, MurrayWell said: The club have been making some really strange decisions of late, with what they are sharing and what they are not sharing. The list may not seem like a big deal to them, but when every other club is doing it, it's a really bizarre stance to take, if indeed this is a stance/tactic. When you add that to the whole not telling us about player and manager contract extensions the whole thing is just weird. I don't think it's to deliberately mislead, but it's just fucking strange. EDIT: Just to add to this, St Johnstone starting to announce players departing, couple of their cup winners, with a caveat of a full update being on the way, will probably just annoy folk further, given how long we've known what division we'd be playing in, in comparison. The sneaky extensions part was weird (I believe the SK one was so the Chairman and ex CEO didn't have to deal with manager change in the last part of their reign, well that's my tin foil hat theory) but the release list is fine. Their contracts probably run until 31st may, the season isn't officially over yet either. It'll come. They also want to tie up a player or two before saying who's doing what. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seeing a good few folk asking on social media now, particularly as other clubs are publishing, and was puzzled by the chat from last Sunday of us basically just deciding we weren't going to publish it for whatever reason. You're probably right though, as I said before may have just been one of those silly season rumours, perhaps reinforced a bit by the recent communication issues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's probably a lot of context involved too tbf - if you're wanting to talk about Motherwell, on here or in real life, you're probably looking forward to next season and the list is fairly key to that. I can't imagine there's many people who spend the non-chatting-shit-about-football time of their day thinking about whether it was last Monday or next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fat_tony Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Moving away from the list for a minute, has anyone had any joy renewing season tickets online for themselves and linked kids tickets? The e-ticketing site only shows my own season ticket, even though my kids accounts are linked to mine as part of my network. Just wondering if there's a trick I'm missing to it before I call the ticket office. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit odd but not surprising maybe with a relegated club? On our list, think I'd rather wait, as @Busta Nut also said probably until end of May, and have definites in there rather than 'offered a contract and under discussion'. Wouldn't be surprised if that's the deadline we've gave players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more common in England. Peterborough have a policy of effectively transfer-listing players going into the last year of their contracts. I'm fairly sure there are other clubs who take a similar approach. https://www.theposh.com/news/posh-announce-retained-list Edited May 24 by capt_oats 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blink182 Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 How does the Kelly going to Rangers affect the Euros. If somehow Kelly managed to make the final team which team benefits from the club payment of a player? Assuming we are onto nothing as it's into June? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alanos Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 I’m still convinced Clarke will take 4 keepers, to avoid difficult decisions and noses out of joint. Jack & Doak seem the obvious ones to drop out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt it, Jack adds something to the Scotland squad, he's a different type of midfielder to the rest so unless it's for fitness reasons he'll be in the squad. Doak has a creativity that no one else has in the squad. I suspect he'll be in the final squad and get a few minutes in the same way Gilmour did at the last Euro's. The 2 dropouts will be Kelly and Souttar I reckon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am 95% sure he was asked to, and signed an extension. A lot of fitba contracts run out June 30th. Scottish fitba saves a months wages by having them until May 31st. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The official site actually updated his contract details to reflect that, Kelly's still shows as being up at the end of May which given the whole Kettlewell extension affair isn't really worth much. https://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/player/liam-kelly/ These were the Gallagher changes: Edited May 24 by capt_oats 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
