Liam Kelly has been named in the Scotland squad for the forthcoming UEFA Nations League matches. 

Although the stopper has been in numerous squads in the last year, he has still yet to pick up a full cap for his country.

The Scots have three fixtures later in the month, starting with a double header at Hampden Park.

Ukraine are first at the National Stadium on Wednesday 21 September before Republic of Ireland are the visitors on Saturday 24 September.

Steve Clarke’s men then travel to Poland to take on Ukraine in their final Nations League group match on 27 September.

Scotland are currently in second place in the group, with six points. Should they finish top in the group, they will be promoted to League A, Group 4 for the 2024/25 campaign and go into a UEFA Euro 2024 playoff against the other best ranked teams from the other groups who haven’t already qualified.

The SPFL/SFA have confirmed our fixture with Ross County, that was due to be played on Saturday 10 September, has been postponed as a mark of respect to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

The story of the match

The Steelmen will be looking to get back to winning ways, following a frustrating draw last weekend at home to Dundee United and a defeat away to Kilmarnock.

All four of County’s points have came at home. They have one win in seven in what has been a tough start to the Premiership campaign.

Match officials

Neil Alexander is our new head of goalkeeping. 

The 44-year-old had a 26-year playing career where he made 465 club appearances for the likes of Cardiff, Ipswich, Rangers and Crystal Palace.

A former Scotland international, Alexander joins up with Steven Hammell’s backroom staff and fills the position vacated by Andy Dibble last month.

“I’m really happy to be joining Motherwell,” Alexander said.

“It’s a great club and it is an exciting time to be working here with Steven and the rest of the coaching staff.

Alexander was most recently goalkeeping coach at Dunfermline after starting last season with Dundee United.

“The goalkeeping position is critical to our success” manager Steven Hammell added.

“Liam Kelly is doing very well but we always want to try and improve the players. Our goalkeeper is not just a shot stopper and goal kick taker, they play a huge part in our style.

“We rate Liam really highly and our expectations on goalkeepers are now massive. We have a tight group of staff who I trust, but more importantly, are highly skilled, motivated and hungry to improve players.

“Neil adds value and experience to our current coaching staff and I am looking forward to working with him going forward.”

Defender Max Johnston has joined Championship side Cove Rangers on loan for the rest of the season.

The 18-year-old full back has made two first team appearances for Motherwell and impressed on loan at Queen of the South last season.

“It’s a really good opportunity for me to go get games under my belt,” Max Johnston added.

“They’re a good team with ambition, who play in the Championship which is a good level to go test myself.”

Johnston was on loan in the Championship last season where he featured in 31 games.

“Max has a really bright future at Motherwell,” manager Steven Hammell said.

“He is a big part of our long-term plans at this club. We have a lot of competition from two Scotland internationals at right full back, with Stephen O’Donnell and Paul McGinn, so it’s very important he continues to play games and learn his trade.

“Cove Rangers is a great loan move for him, playing in the Championship will help enhance his ability and will stand him in good stead for the future.”

Motherwell kick off their SPFL Reserve League campaign against Queen’s Park on Tuesday 6 September. 

The match will take place at Fir Park. Kick-off is 2pm.

Fans will be able to attend the match, with tickets costing £3 for adults while it will be £1 for kids.

Supporters will be housed in the Phil O’Donnell stand, kiosks will not be in operation.

It will be pay-at-the-gate only for the match.
