It's just that you need an extra day in bed to defrost after a Scottish New Year's Eve.

Either that or they just do less work.......!

Well spotted.

Murphy & Molloy seem to be have been brouhgt in just for throw ins based on BBC live text

Saw the last fifteen minutes or so. Molloy was the best player on the pitch for Motherwell when he came on (joke league), Keegan saw about five minutes' worth of action, Murphy still dutifully hoofing everything fifty yards upfield like a rugby full-back.

WTF???????? Sectarian????????????

I was referring to the fact that Molloy would start a row in an empty house after witnessing his antics over the past 10 years.

He is a good player and I hope he rectifies his stint at Carlisle with good performances in the SPL as his performances will be representing the EL.

Has sectarian changed its meaning to denote disliking a dirty little one trick pony cornerboy with more clubs than Jack Nicklaus?

cant believe the tripe written about keegan.
remember a couple of years ago when drogs signed paul keegan. i thought it was that muppet and was devastated. when i realised it was a 20 year old kid instead i was delighted.he will add nothing to a SPL team. wouldnt even have him in my division 1 EL team. motherwell are signing anyone who plays up front and is going cheap/free in the blind hope of landing a bargin like doyle. me thinks they bet on two three legged donkeys.

**wws** · 03/01/2007, 2:48 PM

oh ffs

keegan is a good player

ask anyone in the el and they'll tell you the same

he's simply good at what he does - and malpass isnt dumb enough to think he was getting a new "doyle" in two players over 30 ffs

he signed them cos he know they can contribute - thats what good players do

this is no big deal - he's signed two experienced pros who would easily slot in and do a job in any half decent set up

If Murphy & Keegan are experienced pros what does that make Molloy?

**galwayhoop** · 03/01/2007, 3:27 PM

in fairness it is relatively risk free for motherwell. no transfer fee just pay the wages of players who are able to perform at a resonable level. how long are their contracts for?

**passinginterest** · 03/01/2007, 3:35 PM

18 months for Molloy and Keegan from reports.

**wws** · 03/01/2007, 3:36 PM

transfer fee is 100,000

**galwayhoop** · 03/01/2007, 3:37 PM

for who?

Christ, they've only been there a week. I'd believe it of Molloy, but what did Keegan do to merit such a severe sentence? Say mass in the centre circle?
