Following the launch of our advertisement campaign, Chairman Jim McMahon sits down with the press to discuss a number of points and factors surrounding the full strategy behind the campaign.

McMahon has said that there have been a number of Well Society sign ups off the back of the release and have even received ten points of interest with regards to investing in the club.

Despite the current narrative and speculation around the club, McMahon says the club has no financial concerns and is merely looking towards securing the long-term future of the club and seeing how far the club can truly reach.

Striker Kaela McDonald-Nguah has left the club on loan to SWPL2 side Gartcairn.

The 23-year-old forward, who joined Motherwell in 2020, netted four goals across the first half of the 2023/24 SWPL campaign and will now join the Glasgow side for the remainder of the campaign.

All the best Kaela.

The women of steel will face a sharp return to action following last weekend’s disappointing Scottish Cup exit to Partick Thistle, as the squad prepare for a night under the K-Park lights, with Hearts the visitors in East Kilbride on Sunday.

A positive first-half display at a frost-covered Petershill Park left a confident Motherwell side with assurance and optimism at the break, as Morgan Cross and Bailley Collins both coolly converted from the penalty spot, but two quickfire second-half goals dismantled the women of steel’s advantage, leaving Thistle to progress on their path to the national stadium.

As league action returns to the forefront of the domestic calendar, Motherwell will be keen to record back-to-back victories for the first-time since August after defeating Dundee United prior to the festive break.

The Tale of the Tape

Motherwell

Motherwell concluded their six-game winless run, with a positive display in the City of Discovery, as Jo Addie netted in a defensively resolute performance at Foundation Park, narrowing the gap to Aberdeen in seventh.

The women of steel will be keen to rectify their recent meeting with the Edinburgh side, as Hearts overturned Amy Anderson’s early opener to secure a comfortable victory at the Oriam.

Motherwell will be nearing closer to a full matchday squad, as Morgan Hay returned to full-contact training in the past week, with Eve Donald also returning to full fitness. Hannah Cunningham also returned to action following a short-term injury issue.

Hearts

The visitors travel to Lanarkshire in fine form, with back-to-back victories over Hamilton and Partick Thistle preceding a two-goal stalemate with title-chasers Celtic. Hearts only defeat since September came against their local rivals Hibs in a narrow Edinburgh derby defeat at Easter Road.

Hearts talisman Katie Lockwood will be one to watch for the women of steel, with the English striker finding the target 12-times this season, including a brace against Motherwell in the previous meeting in the capital.

Theo Bair is your G4 Claims player of the month for December.

In a month made up of six games, Theo Bair first major impact of December came against St Johnstone at Fir Park. Subbed on with only 10 minutes to go and his team a goal behind, Bair picked up the ball before a pinpoint cross found Mika Biereth to smash home and equalise right at the end of the match.

Late substitute appearances came against St Mirren and Rangers before he was named in the starting lineup for our match against Livingston. Labelled at 12 pointer pre-match, Bair setup Blair Spittal for the opener before scoring two goals himself, all in the first half.
