FAQ

Tom Sparrow has joined the club on a two-year deal, with the club having an option of a further year.

The Welsh Under 21 international left Stoke City in the summer, having made four appearances for the senior side.

He joined Stoke at the age of 14, having previously been with Wolves. Becoming a shining light in their academy, at the age of 16, Sparrow was promoted to the Potters’ Under 18s and Under 21s.

Centre-midfielder Sparrow made his first team debut in 2021, when he went on loan to Telford United. During that one-month loan, he made six appearances before returning to his parent club.

Upon his return, he began to break into the matchday squads for the senior Stoke City team and was handed his professional debut on the last day of the 2021/22 season, playing the full match.

He gained two further starts in the early stages of the season after before joining Hamilton Accies on loan. He made 17 appearances in his time north of the border.

He spent the first half of last season on loan with Chester, making nine appearances in his time there. He returned to Stoke in January and was a regular in the Premier League 2.

The 21-year-old midfielder now makes his first permanent move since joining Stoke nine years ago.

“We’ve been so busy trying to bring in the right players this summer,” manager Stuart Kettlewell said.

“The planning goes back months so it’s rewarding to get another player signed up for the new season.

“Tom is someone we have been tracking and with both club and player keen on the deal, we are able to get it confirmed early in the summer.

“It’ll be good for Tom to get into pre-season and build up that match sharpness. He has had a taste of Scottish football and Stoke thought highly of him.”

“It’s great to be here and get the move done early in the window,” Tom Sparrow added.

“Being up here this early means I can get a full pre-season under my belt and can get to know everyone.

“I’m really excited at the prospect of next season having spoken with the manager. He’s full of optimism and it’s hard not to get excited for what he’s trying to build here.”

Kofi Balmer has agreed a switch to ML1 and is the first new face of the 2024/25 summer window. 

The Northern Irish centre-back has agreed a two-year deal, with the option of a further year, subject to international clearance.

Balmer’s big breakthrough came early on his career. At the age of 16, he made his debut for Ballymena United back in the 2016/17 season. Not only did he impress at that young, he scored on his debut against Coleraine.

He went on to make 90 appearances for Ballymena United during his five years there, winning Ulster Young Footballer of the Year and also made four appearances in the UEFA Europa Conference League.

Balmer has also made 17 appearances at international level for Northern Ireland Under-19s and Under-21s. In September 2022 he earned his first senior call-up to the national team.

He made the switch to Larne, which seen him become full-time. He played 35 league games during his one and only season, played in the UEFA Europa Conference League and helped Larne secure more European football.

In the summer of 2022, Crystal Palace brought Balmer across the water to England. He made the first-team bench of a number of occasions during the first half of that season.

He continued to impress for the Under 21 side and signed a contract extension with Palace at the end of the season.

During the summer of 2023, he joined Port Vale on loan where he featured on 16 occasions, before joining AFC Wimbledon for the second half of the season.

A successful spell with AFC Wimbledon seen his notch three assists, via his long throws, and also scored one goal.

With 20 appearances for the Northern Irish Under 21 side, and being named in the senior squad, Balmer adds international quality and experience despite being only 23-years-old.

“It’s great to get Kofi on board,” manager Stuart Kettlewell said.

“There was a lot of interest from other clubs who were looking to sign him so it tells you we’ve got a good player on our hands.

“He has played lots of football for a boy his age but we still think with our coaching, we can get more out of Kofi and make him even better.

“I look forward to working with him during pre-season and seeing how he gets on.”

“I’m so happy to be here,” Kofi Balmer added.

“I’ve heard some great things about the club and the fan base. I can’t wait to meet everyone and get stuck into work.

“I feel I can bring a lot to the team and want to make a real impact in my time here.”

Well Society Board member Maureen Downie has resigned from the Society.

In a statement issued last night (Monday 10 June) she said: “It has been a privilege to serve on the board of The Well Society over the last eight and a half years.

“Whilst differences of opinion are to be embraced as they ensure that all perspectives are considered, I’m at odds with the strategic direction currently being taken and cannot in all considered conscience continue in my role as Board Member.

“Therefore, I tender my resignation with immediate effect.”

The Well Society Board wishes to place on record their thanks to Maureen for her service.

The Well Society Co-Chair, Douglas Dickie, will step down from the Society Board.

Douglas said: “Following the statement released today from the majority of the Well Society Board, I unfortunately cannot align myself to much of the content.

I also intimate my resignation from the Well Society Board at the same time.”

The board wish to thank Douglas for his leadership and service to the Society.

Bailley Collins has extended her stay at the club after agreeing a contract extension.

The defender, who has been an integral component at K-Park since signing as a free agent from Aberdeen in 2023, has put pen to paper on a one-year extension after an impressive maiden season at the club.

“Bailley has really hit the ground running,” Head coach Paul Brownlie said.

“Even during a tough run of form collectively, Bailley’s performances stood out and her importance to the squad is reflected after featuring in every SWPL game last season.

“Securing Bailley’s signature for the forthcoming season is a real statement of intent for our aspirations of a top-six finish next season.”

Collins wore claret and amber 32-times in the SWPL last season, starting on 27-occasions and netting three times from the Motherwell backline.

“I am delighted to have extended my stay at Motherwell,” Collins emphasised.

“I really enjoyed my first season at the club and am looking forward to continuing my journey here.

“I’m excited to see what we can achieve.”

• A synopsis of the HOT including the safeguards built into the agreement.
• A note on valuation and the rationale for this deal.
• A steps paper on how this would be done.
• A note from Erik and Courtney about their aspirations for MFC.

• The club cannot take on any external debt.
• No value can move to the Barmacks other than normal expenses.
• No assets, ground etc, can be sold.
• No change to the club name, colours, home ground can be made without the agreement of 75% of the shareholders.
• The existing loan from the WS to the club remain in place until the final payment is made in six years time and at that point half of the loan is forgiven.
• Given the money the WS holds at present, to meet its commitments over the next six years it needs to raise £100k per annum – 60% of what it currently achieves.

• Fan ownership still embedded at the heart of the club.
• New worlds to explore.
• And two safety nets. Buy back plus no value leaving the club for at least six years.

Which is why we are recommending it unanimously as a Board.
