Youth.

It’s one of the fundamental principles our club is built upon. Bringing through talented players and giving them a chance at making careers for themselves in the game.

So what if 2019/20 is the year that yet more young talent breaks through to become first team regulars?

A constant line of youth academy products have found their way into the starting lineup in the last few years, establishing themselves as top flight players.

David Turnbull, Allan Campbell and Chris Cadden are among the first names on the team sheet already. Barry Maguire and James Scott are tipped to have big seasons ahead of them, and there’s more developing under the watch of Maurice Ross, Steven Hammell and David Clarkson in our reserve and academy teams.

Our club relies on bringing through players, developing them and giving them games at Premiership level. Our current crop have also been recognised for their talent at international level, from youth level through to the Under 21s and the senior squad.

Our academy works to develop the next generation every single day. Based at Braidhurst High School, we have youngsters who can see the clear path that lies in front of them for opportunities in the first team.

At Reserve level, we give room for talented players to get further experience mixed in with first teamers, giving them the chance to develop and get even closer to Stephen Robinson’s thoughts.

We are committed to those in the top team already being joined by more as time progresses. Your patience and support with young talent is great to see, and it sets our club apart to have an identity that we can be the place to give opportunities at our highest level.

It’s time to vote for your Tullibardine Player of the Month for May and the final one for the 2018/19 season.

The Steelmen claimed victory in their last game against Livingston, as well as drawing at home to St Mirren and losing at St Johnstone.

To vote, head to our Facebook page and follow the instructions.

David Turnbull has been a consistent winner of the award and bagged a further three goals to take his season tally to 15.

Allan Campbell has been his usual consistent self throughout the month in midfield, helping to provide the solid base for the team to build.

James Scott continued to impress leading the line, proving a massive handful for top flight defenders.

Mark Gillespie saved yet another penalty at the end of the campaign, denying Ryan Hardie in the win over Livingston.

Casper Sloth is the latest addition to the Motherwell squad for the forthcoming 2019/20 campaign.

The Danish international central midfielder will move to Fir Park on a two-year deal, when his contract at Silkeborg comes to an end in late June.

The 27-year-old has eight caps for his country and has made almost 200 appearances at club level.

“Casper has undoubted technical ability and arrives at the club with an impressive CV,” manager Stephen Robinson said of his fourth summer signing.

“He was at one point considered one of the real emerging talents in Danish football, but perhaps will have been frustrated with how his career has gone over the last few years.

“We want to give him the platform and help him recapture his best form. Motherwell is a club which prides itself on getting people back on the right path, and that’s very much our aim with Casper.

“He has been over to train with us and impressed us not only with his ability on the park, but his desire, his hunger to be here and with a bit of a point to prove.

“He’s a very talented, technical footballer and I look forward to working with him, making him even better and watching him shine again.

”We are continuing to work on transfer targets. Our priorities now lie in bringing in forwards.”

Sloth joins Liam Polworth, Declan Gallagher and Jake Carroll in committing to join Motherwell for the new season.

“I am very happy to be coming to play for Motherwell,” said the player on signing on at the club.

“I have heard a lot about the club and Scottish football. It is the perfect place for me to come to play.

“My immediate focus will be on establishing myself in the team and bringing my experience to help the club push higher.”

He played youth football at local side Brabrand IF but started his professional career at AGF Aarhus. He made his debut in the Danish Superliga aged just 17 and was hailed as one of the country’s brightest prospects.

It was around that time he also made his senior international debut for the Danes, starting against Turkey in Istanbul in November 2012. Casper would go on to make a further seven appearances for De rød-hvide, including an impressive showing against England at Wembley in March 2014.

After five years and over 150 games with Aarhus, he won a big money moved to English Championship side Leeds United in April 2013, making his league debut against Bolton shortly after.

He would only turn out 14 times for the Whites in a two-year period where the club had six different managers. In July 2016, an undisclosed fee would take him back to his homeland and Aalborg BK.

He spent a year at AaB before moving to his current club, Silkeborg, where he has played for the last two seasons.
