jamamafegan Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Hello my Motherwell supporting friends. What’s the traffic like on the M74 during rush hour? I need to drive from Galloway to Perth in time for the SJFC game tonight. I could go my usual route which is via the A77 past Killie and through the centre of Glasgow or I can take the alternative route past Motherwell and onto the M73 - avoiding the centre of Glasgow etc. Just a bit worried as the traffic last Friday was a bit shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is some Road works on the M74, especially near Motherwell where its 2 lanes in each direction for a short stretch. Also seen a few car crashes in the past few weeks. You might have some major delays so I would suggest checking Google maps or other services to see any live roadworks and potential delays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, the 74 is a shitshow the now. You could probably miss out the worst of it by coming off at junction 8 (the works seem to start after this) and go the A71 up to the M8 at Newhouse and go either to the 73 that way or to the M90. A quick google says that’s about a 20 min detour so it’s whether or not the roadworks will be worse than that at the time you’re heading 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Good to see Burrows playing hardball with this mob. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt we would be spending the turnbull plus loan money on a single player. What is the highest fee that we have paid for a player? It looks like it was for John Spencer in 1999 for £500,000. Also maybe it's a bit of a miscommunication and we offered £400,000 and they assumed it was £4,000,000/€4,500,000? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 The silence is deafening from Burrows as the Feghouli transfer saga drags on. I would also like to mention that we, on this thread, did not sanction this transfer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swami Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Surely we should just fling another couple of mil at them and take Falcao as well? Might not get in the team above Van Veen right enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazylegsjoe_mfc Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 I was all for it until I saw that he wears #89. Not happy with us paying seven million for a guy who breaches #numberpolis rules. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desp Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 This reminds of a recent game I played in yon Retro Football Manager game. Went for the Motherwell 99/00 squad, sold Stevie Nicholas for £7.5m to St. Johnstone and used the proceeds to sign Nicolas Anelka for £4m from Real Madrid on £20k a week. Kevin Twaddle couldn't believe his luck, firing in balls to big Nico for fun! I have absolutely no idea what game big Zanzibar is playing here, but it sounds a right hoot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 (edited) I see that's the bold Jon Obika saying we made a "late" bid for him. In terms of timeline he was announced at Morecambe on 29th June, we announced van Veen on 2nd July although the Scunthorpe fan-site Iron Bru who first mentioned he was up here published their 'exclusive' on 23rd June. In that respect it doesn't feel an either/or situation. If it's the choice between Obika or big Kev then give me Budget Bergkamp all day, every day. However do I think the squad, as it stands, could use an Obika-type? Absolutely. Edited August 12, 2021 by capt_oats 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZX1886 Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Surely a massive club like us would have offered the full £7.5m value or are we hoping our huge status is enough to get away with a lower fee? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Aldo Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 At least we're now spending this 4 million on one player. Stephen Robinson would have used it to sign the adult population of Scotland in the hope 1 or 2 of us turned out to be decent. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 I'm not sure why, but I'm absolutely convinced this all ties together somewhere with WellView's £5m loans to Newcastle scheme. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same Jon Obika who we passed up on before then reckoned Manzinga was a better option? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mean to worry anyone but I checked this guys sources and they don't believe to be accurate. Concerning news. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
