Motherwell FC - A Thread For All Seasons


Recommended Posts

You still not understanding how this works, no? 

 

Approach a club.  Play them off against the club you're currently at to get yourself more money.  It's painfully obvious to everyone what's gone on. 

 

Hibs fans' anger at this situation is, at best, understandable.  For their manager to publicly throw his toys out the pram (when this sort of situation must go on all the time) is laughable. 

 

Not really what happened though. He went back on an agreement with us and asked for more money. It was only when we rejected that that he scuttled off back to Motherwell. Believe what you want if it makes you feel better though.

Strange that he approached a Championship club then seeking a move, eh?

 

No, it's not strange.  He approached a club who can afford to pay wages higher than most other clubs that would still be within McDonald's caché, to play that club against his employers.  He probably approached a few clubs to see who would bite.

You use "agreement" liberally there.  Football is a cynical industry.  An agreement isn't one until it's signed and registered with the SPFL and SFA.

Another case of an "agreement" gone wrong!

 

Reminds me of two summers ago when Ben Gordon had "agreed" to to stay on at Ross County, before he remembered which manager he was going to be working with, then decided not to sign and signed with Colchester.

Is that what he is? Excellent. Wiki seems to say left back/centre half/midfielder.

Seems to have been a bit of utility man before last season, then Adams deployed him as a holding midfielder where he apparently excelled for Plymouth last year.

The fact the fans are raging at losing him is usually a good sign, the fact we've pissed off Adams in the process is just a delightful wee bonus.

Glorious

Absolutely deluded about it as well. He'll be a star up there in their tinpot league.

Adams has signed a load of lower Scottish Premiership players and finished basically top of that league.

:lol:
