Brian Caldwell was announced as the club’s new Chief Executive earlier this month, and he has now completed a very busy and hectic first week. 

In this interview Caldwell provides a more detailed insight into his career to date and what the process was like as he became the new CEO.

He provides his ideas for the short-term and long-term at Motherwell Football Club and what he hopes to achieve in his time here.

Earlier this week, it was announced that talks with a US investor were moving to the next stage with the Board and Caldwell discusses the timeline of events that are soon to follow as well as his views on working in partnership with the Well Society.

A man who is keen to get the message across about his enthusiasm for fan engagement, Caldwell also keeps supporters up to date with regards to our match against Dundee this weekend.

Stephen O’Donnell is your G4 claims player of the month for March. 

Arriving in August 2020, this is the first time the Scotland internationalist has won the award.

A crucial part of the backline in our historic win at Ibrox at the start of the month, he produced a fine display as well as a strong work rate.

He set up Theo Bair for his goal against St Mirren, with a composed and cushioned header back across goal from Jack Vale’s cross.

Available for every match this season, O’Donnell’s professional approach and attitude has seen him deployed in numerous areas of the pitch. Empty the tank in every match this month, alongside an assist, has seen him named your March player of the month.

Dundee have held a precautionary pitch inspection at Dens Park this afternoon and at present time, the pitch has passed that inspection.

Rain covers are now going on the pitch to try and limit water onto the playing surface. It is likely the covers will stay down on the pitch until Saturday morning.

Depending on the weather, we expect a further pitch inspection to be arranged on Saturday morning.

Updates will be communicated to supporters as soon as we receive them from Dundee.

Georgie Gent says he has matured as a player but also as a man during his time at the club. On loan from Blackburn, this was his first taste of first-team football and he says it has been a massive benefit to his career. 

Gent claims during the tough moments and the good, his teammates have helped him through everything.

Stuart Kettlewell is encouraged by the recent news of investment talks reaching the next stage, but insists that it has not altered any plans as yet for his playing budget. Kettlewell has also undertaken his first discussions with new Chief Executive Brian Caldwell, saying he has achieved a lot in his career and is looking forward to working together. 

Looking ahead to Dundee, Kettlewell is not surprised that Tony Docherty has got his team playing well but knows games against the Dee this season have been closely fought and is expecting, once again, that to be the case on Saturday.

It’s time to vote for your G4 Claims player of the month for March. 

Jack Vale, Theo Bair, Liam Kelly and Stephen O’Donnell are all up for nomination.

To vote, head over to the Motherwell Facebook page.

Injury Update

Motherwell’s Fortunes

Motherwell still have a very slim chance of making top six, but will require maximum points and some favour elsewhere.

Theo Bair’s equaliser earned the Steelmen a point last time out against St Mirren, which leaves them six points off of Dundee.

That result means it’s two wins, a draw and a defeat in the last four matches for Stuart Kettlewell’s men, leaving them on 33 points for the season.

Matches against Dundee have been tight this season, on the opening day, Motherwell drew at Dens Park after Bair’s opener. It was the late, late show for the Steelmen in the reverse fixture. Finding themselves 3-2 down and with ten men. But Conor Wilkinson’s late strike earned a late point for the ‘Well.

Opposition Report

In their first season back in the top flight, Dundee are firmly in the hunt for top-six. They won their last two matches against St Johnstone and Aberdeen, making it two wins, a draw and two defeats in their last five.

They’re on 39 points, with three games to play before the split.

Lyall Cameron has been a consistent performer for Tony Docherty’s side this season. In his most recent match, he scored his fifth goal of the season.
