    Tale of the Tape

    Spartans are yet to defeat or score against Motherwell this season.

    Last time out, Motherwell ran out 3-0 winners despite going down to 10 players. London Pollard netted a brace in the first half, while Jo Addie also got on the scoresheet.

    In their last encounter at Ainslie Park, it ended all square as neither side were able to break the deadlock. Motherwell also reduced to 1o players when Paige McAllister got sent off.

    Form Guide

    Spartans are searching for their first win in three games.

    Their last win came in the middle of March, when they defeated Hearts 2-0.

    Motherwell will be looking to rectify their 1-0 Lanarkshire derby defeat to Hamilton at Fir Park.

    The women of steel will need to start picking up points if they want to catch Spartans, who are six points ahead of Motherwell.

    They last picked up points when they came back from 2-0 down against Partick Thistle to draw 3-3 in March.

    Rangers game switched to Saturday

    Rangers game switched to Saturday

    This weekend’s match with Rangers will now go ahead on Saturday 23 April, with a noon kick off.

    Rangers made a request to the Scottish Professional Football League, Police Scotland and to host broadcasters, Sky Sports, to seek permission to bring the game forward 24 hours.

    Following approval from those bodies, Motherwell FC agreed to the proposal.

    “Based on significant feedback over the years, we believe most of our fans would rather watch a match on a Saturday rather than a Sunday, and with our only other home fixture after the split being a Wednesday night, that was at the forefront of our thinking,” Chief Executive Alan Burrows said.

    “In addition, the club believe it sensible to support all Scottish clubs playing in European matches.

    “That being said, we would like to sincerely apologise for the length of time taken to make this call and the subsequent lack of notice of the change, which has been largely out with our control. We were initially approached on Good Friday, but we were only given confirmation of the change at 3:10pm today (Tuesday 19th).”

    Derby day defeat in SWPL1

    Derby day defeat in SWPL1

    A difficult afternoon for Motherwell as the women of steel struggled to break down an organised Hamilton side, who came away with maximum points in a disappointing but momentous day at Fir Park.

    Chloe Muir’s second half strike proved to be the difference in what was a frustrating afternoon for Motherwell in their first Fir Park appearance in over three years.

    Following last weekend’s narrow 1-0 defeat to league leaders Rangers, Paul Brownlie made one change from the previous outing, with Carla Boyce replacing London Pollard who recently returned from international duty.

    Looking to secure their third successive Lanarkshire derby victory this season, Motherwell started on the front foot and almost found themselves ahead after four minutes.

    Katie Rice cut into the box with a darting run before picking out Lori Gardner with an enticing through ball, but the wingers drilled effort was superbly parried wide of the target by Nicolson.

    Moments later, Carla Boyce brilliantly evaded her opponent with a skilful nutmeg before teeing up Kaela McDonald-Nguah at the edge of the box, but the forwards effort failed to trouble the keeper.

    As the half time whistle loomed, Motherwell continued to flood the Hamilton penalty area in search of the opener.

    Amy Anderson’s volley sailed into the path of Boyce deep into the Hamilton penalty area, but with the goal seemingly at her mercy, Nicolson reacted well to produce a vital last-ditch save.

    With both sides level minutes into the second half, the visitors snatched a lead.

    Lucy Sinclair skilfully worked her way to the edge of the box before curling a threatening delivery across the face of goal, and Muir was on hand to coolly divert her strike past Ramsay at the back post.

    Motherwell toiled in the second half in search of a route back into the game, but despite their tireless efforts, the women of steel were unable to find the late equaliser that they truly deserved.

    Paul Brownlie’s side will now look to rectify this result, as they travel to face sixth placed Spartans in a season-defining encounter at Ainslie Park

    Keith Lasley to depart at the end of the season

    Keith Lasley to depart at the end of the season

    Keith Lasley will leave Motherwell this summer to become St Mirren’s new Chief Operating Officer.

    The ‘Well legend has spent more than 20 years at Fir Park as a player, captain, coach and, most recently, assistant manager.

    The 42-year-old is currently enrolled on the Masters of Sport Directorship at Manchester Metropolitan University with a view to taking a new route into the non-playing side of football, and that has been expedited by St Mirren’s vacancy and offer.

    “We were very keen for Keith to stay at Motherwell and have helped him in his development towards a new career path but we also acknowledge this is a very exciting opportunity for him,” chairman Jim McMahon said.

    “Keith has been a fantastic servant to Motherwell, he is a legend in every sense of the word. We thank him for all his hard work, effort and dedication, on and off the field, across two decades and wish him well for the future.”

    Lasley joined the Steelmen in the late 1990s under then boss Billy Davies and finished as one the highest appearance holders in Fir Park history, playing almost 500 games in claret and amber.

    He was rewarded for his impeccable playing service with a testimonial match against Bolton Wanderers in 2015.

    Graham Alexander added: “I am reluctant to lose Keith from our coaching staff as we have a very good relationship, and he plays a significant part in what we do.

    “However, when he set out the direction in which he saw his career going and then with this role presented itself, it was clear it was too good for him to turn down.

    “I want to personally thank him for all his help and support over the last 16 months and wish him every success in his new role.”

    “It has been a pleasure and a privilege to serve Motherwell Football Club for 20 years,” Lasley said.

    “There have been some very special moments along the way. From making my debut at the age of 19 through to captaining the club and ultimately on to my current role as assistant manager, I have enjoyed every single minute.

    “This club means so much to me and my family, and will continue to do so. I will continue to serve the club with great pride and determination until the end of the season and wish Graham, his staff, the players and everyone at the club continued success in the future.”
