djchapsticks Posted July 7, 2023 Author Share Posted July 7, 2023 Absolutely clean out of the blue. Ah well, that ends speculation on Main, Fletcher and Pressley then....disappointed in that if i'm honest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doonhame Buddie Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 So much for giving youth a chance and not filling the squad with “experienced pros”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not finished by any means yet but at least we have someone comfortable through the middle in the door. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way so many of our youth were going to be our plan B if seniors were out. We struggled last season at times and must kick on. Anyway in most cases playing regularly elsewhere will pay better dividends. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikael Mandron Motherwell future addressed as Stuart Kettlewell highlights duo he wants beyond summer - Daily Record Quote Stuart Kettlewell wants to get Mikael Mandron tied down beyond the summer after the French striker netted his first league goal for Motherwell on Saturday. Mandron joined the Steelmen on a six-month deal in January before Steven Hammell was axed. Since returning from injury the 28-year-old has formed a deadly partnership with Kevin van Veen which has seen the Dutchman equal a top flight scoring record by netting in eight consecutive games. Mandron and van Veen were both on target as Well dumped St Johnstone 2-0 in Perth on Saturday. And Kettlewell hopes both the Frenchman and fellow short-term signing Jon Obika are both still at Fir Park next season. He said: “The icing on the cake on Saturday was Mikael Mandron getting his first league goal for us. He has worked so hard to come back from injury and spends so much time on the pitch trying to become a better player. He is that focal point for us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I know nothing about Mandron. In Robbo’ we trust, etc. I’ll watch him for a couple of games in the stripes before forming any sort of opinion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine thats us done in the forward dept though - Grieve, McMenamin, Mandron, Nehmani and Ayunga are enough options up there, and thats not even counting the youngsters. Bit surprised at this to be honest - my reading of it is we pushed the boat out for McMenamin - rightly IMO - so have had to settle for a less expensive target man. Competent goalie ( if Carson is leaving), centre half and left wing back next please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Competent goalie ( if Carson is leaving), centre half and left wing back next please. We also pulled in "unexpected" fee for Brophy and binned his wages. We "saved" money on the McMenamin deal too. Also mega bucks saved on Main/Shaughnessy/Tait wages. So still plenty of money to be spent. I suspect that Mandron is another "cheap" prospect" from the Martin Foyle book of cheap prospects. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could probably survive the LC experience with one, with another to follow. However, going with Greive and Olusanya, even against lower league opposition, worries me somewhat! Well that was quick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintmurn Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 (edited) Is there a chance that Robbo sees McMenamin as a wing back/midfielder rather than a striker? If so, then I think there's a chance we might go for another forward. Edited July 7, 2023 by saintmurn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenburn bud Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Good to see another striker coming in and getting the deal done quickly. Kettlwell wanted to keep him at Motherwell but no doubt their more obsessed fans will be all over this telling us how shite he is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see my season ticket but it says it’s not going to be active until Sept 2nd which doesn’t sound right! Guessing the 2nd Sep is a typo and should by 2nd Aug. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy_Gunn Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I think we still need a LB,RB,CB & CM. A new GK if Sashboy is still in a huff 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
