Motherwell FC - A Thread For All Seasons


Recommended Posts

 

I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer, went to sleep at midnight... so all that expec.....tation ... and zilch happened?

The deadline for loans is the same as transfers, isn't it?  So it's off???

Edit:  went and googled it, and found this:

Quote

Loan deals will still be possible for clubs outwith the top flight if the player is moving from a higher level

Which suggests that yeah, loan deals aren't available to us now, just free agents.   Unless either that source (The Scotsman) has messed up, or I'm misreading it.

I sincerely hope someone has taken the daytime Fir Park stake-out shift.

06.42 - milkman turned up with 36 pints of semi skimmed and a litre carton of soy milk. Who could that be for? New, vegan centre-half arriving on a free?

Ohh.

He's took it back, turns out it was for the woman at number 34.

So that was a weird window eh?

As it stands the squad looks like this:

GK: Kelly, Oxborough, Connelly
DF: O'Donnell, Lamie, Mugabi, Johansen, McGinn, Penney (Loan), Johnston
MF: Maguire, Spittal, Slattery, Cornelius, Tierney, Goss
FW: Van Veen, Efford, McKinstry (Loan), Aarons (Loan), Morris, Mahon, Shields

Total available = 23

Injured: Carroll, McGinley
Loaned out: Fox (Queen of The South), Devine (Alloa)

In: Spittal, McGinn, Morris, Oxborough, McKinstry (loan), Penney (loan) Aarons (loan) = 7
Out: Amaluzor (Aldershot), Donnelly (Kilmarnock), Grimshaw, O'Hara (St Mirren), McLeod (Peterhead), Morrison (Falkirk), Nirennold, O'Connor (Morton), Roberts (Stevenage), Shaw (Celtic), Rice (Rangers) Woolery (Sakaryaspor), Ojala = 13

Manager In: Steven Hammell (Caretaker - 29/07, Permanent 11/08)
Manager Out: Graham Alexander (29/07)

There's obviously still a Moult question and I guess that offer is still on the table to Snodgrass and I imagine there's another couple will go out on loan.

9am announcement of Moult, I can feel it.
We can’t be putting out a wee shitey tweet at 1am for the king. The media boys will have been up all night stitching a goal montage video together with the caption ‘Good morning ‘Well fans’….I hope.

Not necessarily. It could have been lodged in time and we've just not announced it because...#engagement and it was the middle of the night.

IIRC we announced the bold Tyler Magloire the day after the window shut (which in fairness was probably less about getting clicks and more down to processing).

Ok, that's good news - thanks for the explanation :)

I mean, it's not a straw I'd clutch at but as a general point it just needs to have been processed in time we don't need to have announced it by the time the window SLAMMED shut.

To your actual question though, the deadline for loans is the same as transfers aye.

If we missed out on targets yesterday then we're on to free agents if we're looking to bring anyone in.

Bring him home etc...

Certainly backs up the lower budget for this season chat. I guess the likes of Lennon Miller and Kian Speirs can be seen as part of the senior squad since they have played 1st team football and made match day squads.

Certainly would have liked a striker and CB for cover. Something may happen today I guess or with freebies. Would be a bit of a let down if no one else joins up.
