Motherwell FC - A Thread For All Seasons


Recommended Posts

Courier saying you wanted Zak Rudden on loan as well as every club in the Championship except Dundee United. We've knocked you back though because we don't want him playing for a divisional rival. Dunno how true that is, but that's what the Courier is saying.

The wording of that is *really* fucking weird.

Still under contract until 2025, Rudden’s employers are not keen for the 23-year-old to join a rival team in the Premiership.

That appears to have ruled out a potential move from Motherwell.

It doesn't actually say we're interested it just says it rules out a potential move. :lol:

Meanwhile this thread is full of outsiders giving us their unwanted opinions on God

I'd put Rudden in the same bracket as Connor Shields. Does a job at Championship level but completely out his depth in the Premiership. 

If that's the level we're looking at just relegate us now.

I mean, if you want to give us a bag of tracksuits snd some balls for him, I'm sure you can have him permanently.

It rings a bell hearing Ricky Foster talking on the radio about attending a Dundee game and saying "Zak Rudden sorted me tickets" (they'll have played together at Partick), I hope that's not the link.

I tend to be objective to most people we sign or are rumoured to sign, on the strength of the fact I don't watch other teams enough to really properly know, but I'd make an exception here, I've been thoroughly unimpressed every time I've seen Zak Rudden.

When Dundee signed ahead of us in January 22, I'd have been happy if we'd got him. I'd not seen enough of him to be sure but his record suggested he was a worthwhile gamble.

Thankfully he proved me wrong at Dundee rather than with us.

I guess if - thinking in mega hypotheticals - we're losing Shaw and Obika, either because we're somehow punting him or don't expect him ever to be fit, the usual caveats apply to our fourth pick attacking signing. Whoever that is will be shite and Rudden at least seems to run around. Would still very much rather avoid though.

Is the capitalisation of "Shocked" more #ITKbusta hints?

Not not at all. Keying error, I read all I know on twitter anyway. I just meant how long it took. Considering previous

If I was Dundee I'd be thrilled to send Rudden to a rival in the same league.

Reminds me of that time that we allowed Jordan White to move onto Ross County much to the delight of every well fan but within a fortnight he had scored in wins against Hamilton and Celtic. 

We tried to put Dundee in the keech by loaning them Lamie you'd think they would happily return the favour.

There is something stopping me jumping on the KVV bus. Hard to say if it’s realism, pessimism or a brain defect tbh. 

You're not on the bus now, but you'll be in your motor outside Fir Park on the 31st at 11:30pm taking photos of guys with beards.

The guy who normally posts the deadline day late night, out of focus grainy images off a 20 year old Nokia will not be pleased.

I don't think he's been away long enough to merit the sort of misty eyed romanticism that Moult coming back did- for me at least. More just that we need somebody who can score 5 or 6 goals between now and the end of the season and he's the obvious candidate. If he does want to score every single week then that's fine too.

Zak Jules against Dundee performances

Thanks for that periodic reminder. I'd just managed to scrub that from my memory again.
