Beginning this excursion into the heart of Scottish football, let us turn our gaze to Motherwell. This club, with a history dating back to 1886, makes its home at Fir Park Stadium, where many tales of glory have been etched into the pitch.
When you take a deep dive into the financial depths of this humble club, you come up with a total market value around £7m (as per the figures on Transfermarkt), a sum that may appear trifling in the gilded corridors of the bigger leagues, but one that echoes the true grit of Scottish football.
The Motherwell squad, a band of 48 warriors, draws strength from the vigour of youth with the average age striking at 23 years. It's an army, younger than most, armed with the audacity of hope and fearlessness of youth.
The present season has seen them striding across the fields of two competitions. In the Premiership, they're currently holding ground at sixth place, whilst in the League Cup, their journey saw them propel to the Semi-Finals before the road ended. Engaging themselves with a fighting spirit that endears them to fans and neutrals alike, Motherwell's story continues to unfold.
