Another belting edition of the 68-page Steelmen Matchday Magazine returns against Dundee Utd tomorrow.
It’s an excellent read from Editor Andy Ross and the team from Curtis Sport and BlueChilli Design.
But what can fans expect from the eighth magazine of the campaign?
‘Well boss Stuart McCall and Captain Keith Lasley both return with the regular columns. The manager talks candidly about the last week or so at Fir Park and looks at the bigger picture in the league. Skipper Lasley gives a fascinating insight into the players’ mindset following defeat against both halves of the Old Firm.
Andy Ross caught up with Antigua and Barbuda International Zaine Francis-Angol for the feature interview. The former Spurs defender chats openly about his hopes and dreams for the future and what Motherwell can archive this campaign.
And that’s not where the features stop!
There is a 13-page section dedicated to our visitors, Peter Houston’s Dundee United.
Kris Jack goes through four players to watch from opponents, as we as a player-by-player breakdown of their squad.
Arabs midfielder John Rankin is the man in the spotlight in our opposition Q&A and fan Heather McKenzie gives her view on how the Terrors are progressing. We also have a scout report from United’s last SPL match when Inverness CT ran out 4-0 winners in the Highlands last weekend.
The features and big names keep coming…
In our Interview Alumni section, John Berry caught up with former Steelman Kevin Twaddle who launched his new book ‘Life on the Line’ at Fir Park this week.
The winger tells a horrifying tale of a gambling addiction that cost him over a million and almost the ultimate price. He also looks back favorably on his time at Fir Park, recalling ‘his’ team.
The Press Association’s Gavin McCafferty returns with his ‘From the Press Box’ feature and looks at how Motherwell are setting the trend with the move to fan ownership. Press & Media Manager Alan Burrows adds his thoughts in ‘The Last Word’ near the back of the publication and looks at how Scottish Football could learn from the Ryder Cup.
Keith Lasley is the latest to give his top five’s in the iPlayer feature and Jamie Murphy tells us his ‘First and Last’.
Graham Barnstaple’s Cult Heroes this week focuses Ray Farningham who, to a certain generation of Motherwell fans, will be forever remembered for a certain goal at Ibrox. Oh for one of them recently, eh?
But wait, there’s more! We take a look back at last weekend’s 2-0 defeat to Celtic, 10 tough questions in our Quiz, the latest news section as well as an in-depth statistical look at referee Euan Norris. We have the latest from The Ticket Office and the Commercial Department and the latest stats, facts and figures for the already busy 2012/2013 campaign.
