With origins dating back to the ember year of 1886, Motherwell have been part of Scotland's football scene, plying their trade at the Fir Park Stadium. The craftsmanship of the beautiful game has passed down through the generations on these hallowed grounds. A veritable breeding ground for talent, it has long cultivated both the hardened professional and the hopeful youngster.
The Motherwell playing personnel, an impressive caravan of 48 players, carry a combined market value estimated at around £7m according to a noted resource in the world of football, Transfermarkt. It must be remembered that this is just an approximation, inherent with the vagaries of the football economy.
The average age of the squad teeters on the precipice of youth and experience, resting at the tender age of 23. This striking blend of green and seasoned players holds the promise of a season of thrills, spills and hopefully, some silverware.
As of current standings, Motherwell have thrown their hat into two significant competitions; maintaining a respectable 6th place in the Premiership and tracking an ambitious course to the semi-finals of the League Cup. Their journey this season continues to pique the interests of the terraces, with anticipation filling the stands in equal measure to the pints in the Tavern.
