Desp Posted July 23, 2015 Author Share Posted July 23, 2015 Does anyone know who the goalie was that played against Sligo Rovers? Word on Steelmen is it's Daniel Atkinson. 19, recently released by Leeds. Sligo's team sheet has "Atkinson" in goals for us: https://twitter.com/sligorovers/status/623559746268737536 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt_oats Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 McDonald on yer Sky Sports News: http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/9923018/scott-mcdonald-upbeat-ahead-of-third-spell-at-motherwell Maybe it's just me reading too much into things but he's been pointedly vocal in his support of Baraclough. Spoke highly of him in the Radio Scotland interview a while back, ages before he re-signed. Fairly predictably in the club interview after he signed and again here. Taking it at face value, the players definitely seem on board with what the manager/club is trying to do. McDonald doesn't really seem the sort to offer up platitudes either.

Jim McLean's Ghost Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 The bit about rekindling the McDonald Clarkson partnership has me worried since it was pish the first time round. I think it will be McDonald and Fletcher starting and Skippy will be dropping deeper to help in the midfield so that we have more opportunities to get Johnson and Ainsworth the ball with a clear run at a fullback like we did against Rangers.

McDonald's time at Motherwell seemed to coincide with Clarkson's slump, after his initial burst onto the scene as a 17 year old didn't it? He only seemed to start scoring goals again once McGhee came in. Like you, I would suggest it would be McDonald in the "number 10" role, to allow the two wide men to attack. Fletcher & Moult will be the first two in line for the centre-forward role. Clarkson will be there to fill in where needed, be it up top, just in behind or even out wide.

superwellfan Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Should Jamaica win the Gold Cup against Mexico this weekend, will Chris Humphrey become the first player that has played for Motherwell to win a major continental competition? I'm meaning international football rather than club football so Paul Lambert's 1997 Champions League win doesn't count. I see Australia won the Oceanic Cup in 2004...had Scott McDonald been capped by this point? As you can tell, my Friday evening is fucking riveting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt_oats Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Just watched Bara's post-match interview there, looks like Atkinson walking past in the background talking to Jim Hollman, take it he was the trialist on the bench tonight then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Hahn Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Think buzz, mcmanus and mcfadden were also in that squad McFadden certainly was, I remember him scoring in the 5-1 against Bulgaria.

Casagolda Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Today's Sun linking us with a move for Jackson Irvine. Wouldn't mind signing the boy permanently if that were the case but can't say I'm overly enamoured at the prospect of loaning players in from Celtic if that's what we're trying to do.
