rowsdower Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 Our keeper being third choice behind Angus Gunn is a red neck, we need to tone down the social media stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see if we can improve things at our end without just dismissing the guy as a charlatan. It may work out. It may not work. But give it a chance. In my humble opinion, any revised deal needs to be fundamentally altered on his part, not ours. We do not need to make any improvements on our side. Any proposal he offers must surely include the following: Either a significantly larger financial investment or an agreement that the Well Society retains a minimum of 51% shareholding. I'm fairly certain that when some Well Society members voted in the online poll expressing a willingness to consider giving up fan ownership for the right deal, they did not envisage a scenario where an investor's financial outlay would be £1.95 million over six years. Meanwhile, the Well Society membership, through increased contributions and writing off 50% of the loan it gave the club, would have a total financial outlay of £1,784,000 over the same six-year period. For an additional £166,000 from Erik Barmack, we are losing 25% of our shares while he gains 49%. Surely, a deal cannot be made unless the above terms are fundamentally altered? Agreeing to those conditions would make us the laughing stock of Scottish football. We might as well close the tin-pot thread and declare "Motherwell" as the most tin-pot entity ever seen in our game. We would become known as the football club that achieved what many others aspire to—being fan-owned—only to discard it for what amounts to the price of a three-bedroom new-build house in Wishaw. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well simply chage the timing of the vote. The cluib cannot make the Well Society vote on a proposal with no input from the society. They are getting led by the nose here. if there are issues they need to step up and take control. Agreed. They’re on the board that owns the Football Club. Act like it and take ownership of the situation rather than being cucks about the whole thing. If they aren’t happy with the timeline then do something about it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or will the tombola come into effect The article on the official doesn't but he's a right back who can also play right side of the 3. Scott Burns also mentioned he can play as a defensive mid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming Stuparević is next to be announced we're probably a goalkeeper, an attacking mid plus a couple of LWBs and CBs (depending on how we view SODs) to go.
