Fresh from signing a new deal with the club, Nathan McGinley has been reflecting on how much he has changed in his two years at Motherwell.

Moving to Scotland in the middle of lockdown, the defender was restricted to just his flat and limited areas of the club. He struggled to get to know his surroundings and his new team mates.

But a lot has changed since then. Off the pitch, he’s now a popular and influential presence in the dressing room. And on it, he’s grown and matured as a player.

He’s also drastically changed his diet, opting to go vegetarian a year ago, something which brings its own unique challenges when you’re a professional athlete.

The self-confessed geek let the cameras into his home to relax with him after training and meet his whippet puppy Obi.

Nathan McGinley has signed a new contract with the club.

The left-sided defender has committed his future until the summer of 2024.

“Nathan has shown us that he’s an excellent defender with all the attributes we need in our team,” manager Graham Alexander said.

“Now his future is sorted for the next couple of seasons, he can fully concentrate on helping us win games and improve on the qualities he has already.”

Recruited from Forest Green Rovers ahead of the 2020/21 season, McGinley has made 52 appearances in claret and amber to date.

The 25-year-old, an academy graduate at Middlesbrough, has established himself at left-back under manager Alexander, while also being able to play as a central defender.

The Motherwell boss says it’s not in his team’s DNA to treat Sunday’s trip to Ibrox as a so-called free hit.

Scott Fox has signed a new deal with the club.

The goalkeeper has put pen to paper on a contract that will take him through to the end of the 2022/23 season.

“Scott has shown since the summer what a quality goalkeeper we have to compete with Liam Kelly,” manager Graham Alexander said.

“He trains and prepares like a top professional, and we know he’s ready for any opportunity that might come his way.

“We’re very happy to secure him for another year after this season.”

Recruited in the summer of 2020, a serious knee injury ruled him out for the majority of his first season at Fir Park.

Recovering to play a role on loan in Greenock Morton’s successful Championship relegation play-off with Airdrie, he returned to Motherwell to contend with Liam Kelly for the gloves.

Fox is an experienced shot stopper with regular Premiership games with Partick Thistle and Ross County, as well as having been on the books of Celtic, Dundee, Queen of the South and East Fife.

A trip to Ibrox lies in store on Sunday in the cinch Premiership.

Kick-off at Ibrox is at 3pm.

Form guide

Motherwell remain without a league win in 2022 so far, but come into the match off the back of a Scottish Cup win – and then Premiership draw – with Aberdeen.

Rangers’ 1-1 draw at Dundee United on Sunday ended a run of four straight wins, which also included the 4-2 away win at Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Europa League.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side took on the Germans again at Ibrox on Thursday night ahead of our visit, drawing 2-2 to secure progression on aggregate.

Tale of the Tape

Aberdeen and Motherwell have faced off twice already this season.

In the most recent encounter, the women of steel came away with the three points after defeating the Dons 4-3. A Carla Boyce hat-trick and a Chelsie Watson goal secured the victory.

The two sides also faced in the group stages of the SWPL Cup in August, with Aberdeen winning 1-0 on that occasion.

Motherwell have only lost one of their previous six games against Aberdeen.

Form Guide

Aberdeen are currently one point behind Motherwell in the SWPL1 table.

The Dons beat Spartans 4-2 to advance in the Scottish Cup, after beating Hibernian 1-0 the previous week.

Aberdeen are currently on a four game winning run, dating back until the end of January.

Motherwell haven’t featured since the start of February where they were beaten by Hearts 1-0.

The women of steel have two defeats in five games and look to extend their gap to the teams below in the table.

“We were the team on the front foot. On another day we win that game and take all three points.”
