    Tale of the tape

    Rangers have won the last four competitive outings between the two sides. Before that, two draws at Fir Park had given Motherwell a degree of parity.

    The Steelmen’s last victory at Ibrox came in the Premiership play-offs in May 2015, with a 3-1 win coming courtesy of goals from Lee Erwin, Steven McManus and Lionel Ainsworth.

    Form guide

    Motherwell started pre-season with a 1-0 win over Dundee United, before a 3-2 reversal at the hands of Kilmarnock on Friday.

    Jordan White was on target in the United match, with Mark O’Hara and Tony Watt scoring against Killie.

    Rangers lifted the Veolia Cup in France at the weekend, defeating Lyon and Nice in back-to-back friendlies.

    The Glasgow side are preparing both for the start of the 2020/21 Scottish Premiership season and also the resumption of the 2019/20 UEFA Europa League.

    Having lost 3-1 at home to Bayer Leverkusen in the last 16 tie before lockdown, they travel to Germany on 6 August for the second leg.

    Motherwell lose in Kilmarnock friendly

    Motherwell lose in Kilmarnock friendly

    Motherwell lost out 3-2 to Kilmarnock in a well-contested friendly at Fir Park on Friday.

    An even first half was followed by a dominant display in the second 45 from the Steelmen, but they were punished for failing to make their dominance pay.

    The first half was low on chances for both sides. Long-range efforts from Turnbull and Maguire failed to seriously test the ‘keeper, while both also combined at close range, with Turnbull’s knockdown seeing Maguire fire wide from 12 yards.

    With five minutes left in the half, Burke’s corner was swung in from the right in front of the Cooper Stand, with Kabamba getting across the front of his man and steering a header into the left of the net.

    Early in the second, Motherwell were level. Hastie’s cut inside on the right saw him stand the ball up to the back post.

    Fellow sub Hylton read the intention, peeling off and heading the ball down to Polworth, who then teed up O’Hara to fire home a ferocious low effort into the bottom right corner from 25 yards.

    Hylton could have made it two 10 minutes later. Another ball from the lively Hastie caused trouble for the visiting ‘keeper who missed the flight of the ball under pressure. But the winger just couldn’t bundle the unexpected ball at the back post.

    Christopher Long made his return after signing on for a second year and he was next to seriously test the goalkeeper. Laid off by Watt on the edge of the area, his attempt to disguise a placed shot into the bottom right corner was well read and saved.

    ‘Well continued to press. McGinley’s cross from the left fell sweetly for Watt 12 yards out, but his volley was blocked.

    The sucker punch would arrive with 15 to go. Against the run of play a low cross from the left was met by a Kilmarnock trialist, who was able to steer the ball into the bottom right corner of the net.

    Then, with five minutes late, Motherwell levelled again.

    Hastie again was brilliant down the right, twisting, turning and beating his opposite number all ends up. His perfectly-flighted to the back post was met by Watt, who headed down under pressure into the net.

    Within 60 seconds, Kilmarnock retook the lead. From kick off, a break down the right played in Kiltie, who fired low past Carson from a tight angle into the left of the net.

    Motherwell: Carson, Grimshaw (Cornelius 60), Donnelly (Mugabi 60), Lamie (Hussain 82), McGinley (Johnston 75), Maguire (O’Hara 45), Campbell, (Polworth 45), Turnbull (Long 60), Robinson (Hastie 45), Seedorf (Hylton 45), White (Watt 45).

    Kilmarnock first half: Trialist, Millen, Broadfoot, Findlay, Waters, Power, El Makrini, Burke, McKenzie, Brophy, Kabamba

    Kilmarnock second half: Lyle, Trialist, Broadfoot (Dicker), Rossi, Taylor, Kiltie, Brindley, Pinnock, Trialist, Cameron, Connell

    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.

    ‘Well beat Dundee United in friendly

    ‘Well beat Dundee United in friendly

    Motherwell stepped up their pre-season preparations with a 1-0 home win against Dundee United on Saturday.

    Manager Stephen Robinson used two different lineups in either half, as the squad got their first minutes of the 2020/21 campaign.

    New signings Nathan McGinley, Ricki Lamie, Scott Fox, Jordan White and Jake Hastie all featured, while there were top team minutes for Harry Robinson and young defender Max Johnston.

    David Turnbull also made his return after summer knee surgery, playing the first 45 minutes of the match.

    Exactly 18 weeks after Motherwell’s 1-1 draw with Hearts in their last competitive outing, the first half saw both teams tentatively find their way into the swing of things again.

    Neither side seriously troubled either goalkeeper with clear-cut chances, save for a United header which bounced off the post and out.

    The breakthrough came 10 minutes into the second half. Robinson’s ingenuity down the right opened the chance for him to cut inside and loop a shot over the goalkeeper.

    With United’s number one beaten, the ball crashed down off the crossbar, with White on hand to tap home from a matter of yards.

    Motherwell first half: Fox, Cornelius, Donnelly, Hussain, McGinley, O’Hara, Turnbull, Semple, Hastie, Seedorf, Watt.

    Motherwell second half: Carson, Grimshaw, Maguire, Lamie, Johnston, Campbell, Polworth, MacIver, Hylton, Robinson, White.

    Dundee United first half: Deniz, Robson, Connolly, Graham, Freeman, Powers, Harkes, Chalmers, Pawlett, Fotheringham, Smith.

    Dundee United second half: Deniz, L Smith, Neilson, Sporle, Reynolds, Davidson, King, Mochrie, Clark, Glass, Appere.

    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.
