Looking at the weather, hopefully Saturday should be fine.  Hard frost the now, but temps look set to rise over today to Saturday.

Thanks Sean Batty.

Nah, he's waiting for the tears and snotters to subside. Could be weeks.

Would we maybe want this off? Just thinking it would give us time to get the new manager in 

From a purely selfish pov I can’t make the game so want it off. Like you say it gives us extra time to get a new manager in. Realistically when are we expecting someone to be appointed, is it likely their first game will be against Queens Park at Hampden a week on Saturday?

Surprised we've had no update from Mathie on what has happened this week. Would have thought a Dear Lee video would have dropped by now.

Motherwell are looking for a CEO. Fingers crossed he’s been busy interviewing for that.

Had heard the hope was appointed by Monday, in stands Tuesday and in dug out for QP.

With Burns Night approaching perhaps a video reading of an amended 'John Anderson'

Might we even see some applicants in the stand on Saturday if it’s on?

It would be very funny if McCall rocked up on Saturday to potentially scout for loans.

So you're saying we're getting a new manager and new players?

Is the Scottish Cup still ET/Pens rather than replays?

If the weather forecast, wind wise, is correct for Tuesday then you'd think the game could be in doubt. Might not be the worse case scenario although happy to play if we get Stephen Kelly back to take corners.

If they’re moving that quickly then I’d say it’s more likely to be Brown or Courts. 

[Jazzar]

On balance I'd prefer to hear news of at least a couple of signings - the new head coach will arrive in time.

Yeah I was thinking that, to be fair I would be happy enough with either 2, think Bowyer would be more short term.

Maybe a reason they're trying to get someone in quickly is to assess the squad (HA) and they can have a say in what positions they feel need strengthened etc.

Let's make sure we don't allow them to assess the squad before they sign the contract please. They'd end up doing a Pendlebury.

Just send them the running stats - they’ll look braw

Mathie will obviously be busy, but over an entire week I would still expect him to give an update to supporters. 
 

Even tomorrow, an update on the situation would be helpful. Last time he set out a timeline, and I think it helps to alleviate some of the stress within the support.
