Motherwell FC - A Thread For All Seasons


Recommended Posts

That's a shame for the boy, I hope he makes a full recovery & gets his big move, a cracking player......

David Turnbull's proposed £3.25m move to Celtic from Motherwell has collapsed after it emerged that the midfielder needs "immediate preventative surgery".

Is it weird that I'm disappointed he's staying?

All that this means is that we have a player who probably doesn't want to be here, we'll have a similar situation in a few months / year with us trying to sell him to the highest bidder - will we even get similar bids if he doesn't hit the same heights or teams have concerns over his injury?

I appreciate an injury can't be helped but, personally, I would rather we had the £3 million quid in the bank and were able to move on with building a team for next season.

Wait, was that picture of him in a Celtic shirt fake or what?

Nope. Lennon "confirmed" they were close to signing him yesterday aswell.

Shame those high up at Celtic felt they could bully Motherwell into a lower fee...

Has there been confirmation on what the injury actually is and how long he will be out?

Outcome to the whole thing suits absolutely no one.

"immediate preventative surgery and subsequent rehabilitation."

Suggests it's not an injury, as such.

Just read some STV reporter on twitter saying "immediate corrective surgery on knee ligament issue".

How long is the recovery period from that?

ETA: Tweet quoted a second before I posted this...

How are st Johnstone involved?

They're not but STV are and I was commenting on the accuracy of their reporting from the perspective of a St Johnstone fan.

Suits me like. I get to watch DT play for Motherwell more.
