    Kick-off in our friendly match at Rangers has been moved to 8pm.

    The game will still be broadcast on Premier Sports in the UK, and to our season ticket holders and international viewers through our live streaming service.

    Our new back of shirt sponsor Glen’s Vodka

    We’ve entered a new, exciting partnership with the Loch Lomond Group.

    Their iconic Glen’s Vodka brand will feature on the back of first team home and away kits for the 2020/21 season.

    As part of the agreement, a range of vodka and whisky products will be stocked in all club bars including Glen’s Red and Loch Lomond Malt Whiskies, as well as their Reserve and Signature Blends.

    “Glen’s Vodka is an iconic Scottish brand and we’re delighted to be sponsoring Motherwell Football Club,” John Grieveson, CMO of Loch Lomond Group, said.

    “The club is long established in the top tier of Scottish football. This is an exciting year as the team embark upon their journey into Europe and we are delighted to be their partner along the way.”

    Alan Burrows, chief executive at Motherwell FC, added: “We are delighted to welcome the Loch Lomond Group on board.

    “We are pleased to be able to showcase their award winning portfolio of the highest quality brands, including finest malt expressions, quality whisky blends and one of the most popular vodka brands in Scotland, Glen’s Vodka.

    “As part of the relationship, a special edition malt will be developed and on sale for supporters.”

    Loch Lomond Group were one of the first spirits companies in the world to utilise their existing resources and infrastructure to make hand sanitiser, so as to help and support those in need across the country throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.

    Loch Lomond Group hand sanitiser will be available in Fir Park for when supporters return to the stadium.

    An opportunity to talk to others

    An opportunity to talk to others

    The last few months have been particularly tough on many of us.

    Motherwell FC’s Community Trust, together with Time to Tackle and supported by Paycare, are hosting a Zoom call on Wednesday 15 July at 7pm for anyone to come on and share their experiences, or listen to others.

    On the call, the group’s founder Aaron Connolly will tell his story of his battle with poor mental health. His organisation exists to help tackle poor mental health, poor physical health, stigma and loneliness using the power of football and peer support.

    You can also learn about how we will work together to provide further support for our fans and our local community.

    To take part, download the Zoom app. The meeting ID is 830 4902 4137 and the password is 109457.

    You don’t have to share your audio or video to take part. You can just come on and listen if you prefer.

    Pat Quinn (1936-2020)

    Pat Quinn (1936-2020)

    We are saddened to hear of the death of Pat Quinn at the age of 84.

    One of the club’s famous Ancell Babes, the inside forward made 251 appearances for the club between 1955 and 1962, scoring 119 goals.

    Quinn was a star man in the side, and would receive international recognition through four Scotland caps during his time at Fir Park.

    He would be sold to Blackpool in 1962 for £34,000, a significant sum for the times. He also went on to play for Hibernian and East Fife.

    Our thoughts are with Pat’s family and friends at this time.

    Six ways you can improve your financial health

    Six ways you can improve your financial health

    Across the country, we are facing unprecedented times.

    For many of us, as a community, country and a human race collectively, it may be our toughest challenge yet. Pulling together yet staying apart.

    Now that you have exhausted all the online workouts, Zoom events and mid-morning yoga options… what do you do with all this time at home?

    Our partners SRB Wealth Management offer six ways you can improve your financial health.


    What if you spent time being financially forward thinking?

    We have a rare opportunity to take time to get to grips with, re-evaluate and make improvements for our future finances. Doing those little jobs that we put aside, because other daily tasks get in the way, gives you a sense of achievement, control and the knowing that you’re making progress toward a better financial future.

    The team at SRB put their heads together  – virtually, of course – and came up with some simple but effective things that you can do at home, to improve your financial health during this ‘stay at home’ period of time.

    1. Dig out that paperwork

    We all get annual statements about our ISAs, pensions, life assurance, savings and bonds and we are often guilty of sticking them in a drawer, either because they don’t make a lot of sense to us or we don’t have time to look at them. Now is that time. Dig out those statements and take a long hard look at them. Understand them and make sure you’re comfortable with what they’re telling you.

    Don’t lose sight of key financial dates, such as tax year beginning or end. Longer term financial plans may not be a current priority. But opportunities to invest and take advantage of these dates shouldn’t be ignored.

    2. Do your sums

    If you have a retirement income goal in mind, think about how much you’d need to save each month, from now, to hit that target, taking into consideration the effects of inflation.

    Are you saving the right amount? If not, think about what you can do to make that happen.

    Find out how much you might have in your state pension, using the state pension forecasting service, and consider whether that’s enough for you to live the retirement life you’d like.

    3. Track down those lost pension pots

    If you’ve worked for more than one company during your career, then it’s likely that you’ve paid into different workplace pensions. Make use of the Pension Tracing Service to help track down what you’ve paid and to where. All you need is the names of companies who have employed you – even if the company no longer exists.

    Please note: This service will only tell you the name of the provider, but you can then get in touch and request the detailed information. Once you know what you have and where, you can consider whether to leave as is or consolidate, depending on the type of pension and your personal circumstances.

    4. Review your energy outgoings

    This often creates a big ‘sigh’ in most households under normal circumstances, because it takes time to review and research. But if you haven’t reviewed your suppliers and rates either for your home, or your business, now is the time to do it. Energy prices are favourable at the moment, but wont be forever.

    Compare rates across a number of suppliers using comparison sites, or check their offers directly to find the best deal for you. You could free up some money that could be better placed elsewhere.

    If you’re unsure of the service or reputation of some suppliers, for impartial information and advice on household and business energy from Britain’s energy regulator, check out the Ofgem website.

    5. Ensure your protection is adequate

    It’s a given that we protect our material possessions – car, home, phone, even holidays. But many people overlook protecting their income, or their family’s ability to survive without it.

    Protection is fundamental. It may not be the most exciting of subjects, but it addresses one of our most basic desires – to keep safe all that we hold dear.

    Take the time to consider whether your existing protection is right for your current circumstances. Is it cover you no longer need? Are you under insuring yourself? If you don’t have cover, think about how that looks should the worst happen.

    6. Look at your current mortgage arrangement

    A mortgage is often your biggest financial commitment. Can you ease that burden in the short term, or make it work better for you in the longer term?

    Consider whether the mortgage payment holiday on offer is suitable for you. Look at your current rate, when did you last review this?

    Look ahead at your plans for the property. Do you want to make changes, or are you considering moving house in the future?

    Take steps toward a better financial future

    Using this time to take action and make small but important changes to your finances offers many benefits.

    You might improve your financial position for the future. You’ll certainly get a few things off that ‘to do’ list and it’ll give you a great sense of achievement. It also puts you in control, when much around you is out of your hands.

    There’s always time to speak to your Financial Adviser

    If you have a Financial Adviser, you don’t have to wait to see them face to face to discuss any concerns or questions over your portfolio.

    A good FA will be there to support you during this unsettling time, to go over any concerns and relay market information. Review your portfolio and see where you could make improvements by moving or changing things around.

    Your adviser is likely to be working from home too, so will be available for a chat on the phone. Take this time to discuss your existing investments, bonds, ISAs and Personal Pensions or to simply get an update of where things are. They’re in a great position to keep you up to date with what’s happening with your investments.

    Take this time to look after your future. If you’d like to speak to a member of the team about wealth management, retirement planning or Inheritance Tax planning, contact SRB Wealth Management on 01698 536064 or email srbwealth@sjpp.co.uk.

    Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

    The value of an investment with St. James’s Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested.

    SRB Wealth Management Ltd is an Appointed Representative of and represents only St. James’s Place Wealth Management plc (which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority) for the purpose of advising solely on the group’s wealth management products and services, more details of which are set out on the group’s website www.sjp.co.uk/products.

    Let’s break our season ticket record

    Let’s break our season ticket record

    We want to set a new record by reaching a target of 4,500 season ticket sales for the 2020/21 campaign.

    Having broken our previous best in 2018/19, we surpassed it again in 2019/20 as 4,488 of you committed to the club.

    Now, against the odds in these difficult times, we want your help to try and beat it again.

    Over 3,500 of you have now signed up for the 2020/21 season.

    To get yours, there’s various ways you can buy.

    If you can, please use our online purchasing service at tickets.motherwellfc.co.uk. If you’re renewing, just sign in using the customer number on your season card.

    You can also call us between 10am and 3pm, Monday to Friday, on 01698 333333.

    Our promise to you

    We promise that everyone who buys a season ticket for 2020/21 will get the full value of their purchase.

    Everyone who purchases, or has already purchased, a season ticket for 2020/21 will get the chance to attend 19 home league matches, whenever that is possible.

    If that is not possible in 2020/21, we will offer you the chance to claim the credit value of the missing games back. This can either be used against the value of your season ticket for 2021/22, or if you don’t renew next year, you can claim the equivalent number of match tickets for games in 2021/22.

    If matches are initially played behind closed doors, we pledge that you will not be adversely impacted.

    What’s more, you will get free access to our live online streaming service to watch all of our home games played behind closed doors.

    Kids go free

    For every adult or concession season ticket bought, you can get up to two free season tickets for children aged 15 or under. And each child will get their own season card, giving them something of their own.

    Two kids go for free if you buy a season ticket in our Davie Cooper stand, while you can get one free child season ticket for every adult or concession bought in our John Hunter and Phil O’Donnell stands.

    If you want to take along even more kids, individual season tickets are priced at just £20 for the campaign, or on a match-by-match basis for £3.

    Spread the cost or pay now

    There are many ways to pay for your season ticket.

    You can pay for your season ticket in two instalments in July and August by using our standing order facility. Forms are available here, or you can call 01698 333333 and we will get you set up. If you’re filling out a form, you can scan it and email it to tickets@motherwellfc.co.uk or post it to the club.

    Finance is available to spread your cost over 12 months at an interest rate of 19.5%. To apply, please call us on 01698 333333.

    Stephen Robinson given permission for Northern Ireland talks

    Stephen Robinson given permission for Northern Ireland talks

    We have given Stephen Robinson permission to speak to the Irish FA regarding the vacant role of Northern Ireland manager.

    On Tuesday, the governing body sought consent to interview Stephen for the job, which we reluctantly granted.

    We have expressed in the strongest possible terms that we want him to stay with us.

    The work he has done so far to take the club to two national cup finals, bring through young talent and finish third in last season’s Premiership has been exceptional.

    As we prepare to embark on a UEFA Europa League campaign, it is our hope that Stephen will stay to continue the work that has proven so successful.
