Lukas Fadinger says confidence his high in the camp, but the positivity has only came because of the hard work everyone has put in this season so far. Fadinger has enjoyed playing in the heart of the team this season, and hope the success will continue in 2026.

Manager Jens Berthel Askou speaks ahead of his side's visit to Edinburgh for the second time this season, as they look to one better against Hibernian this time round in the capital.  Amid managerial vacancies in Scotland, Askou responds to questions about his time at Motherwell so far and how much he has enjoyed his time here.

After exerting a lot of energy to register a 2-0 win over Celtic just four days ago, 2026 started at Fir Park for Motherwell as they looked to kick on again against St Mirren.  Looking to extend their unbeaten run at Fir Park to seven games, Motherwell lined up on the front foot as they looked for an early breakthrough. Tawanda Maswanhise returned from international duty and made an instant impact, scoring his 14th goal of the season in the first-half. Motherwell's authority on the match didn't lessen in the second period, with Elliot Watt converting from the edge of the box to make it 2-0. Another clean sheet, another win: Jens Berthel Askou's side strengthened their hold on fourth place as they travel to Hibernian, who are two points behind, next weekend.

Being one of the longer-serving players at the club, Callum Slattery speaks about the success the club is currently experiencing and what it means to him.  Slattery explains the importance of the pre-season for the players getting used to the new system, and how the win over Celtic is a product of that work.

Assistant manager Max Rogers provides team news ahead of Saturday's match against St Mirren, and also reflects on the huge win over Celtic last time out.  Rogers discusses the mindset within the team as they take on a new challenge this weekend.

2015 was the last time Motherwell had tasted victory over Scottish Premiership champions Celtic. When the Celts visited Fir Park in the final outing of 2025, the Steelmen would have to be firing on all cylinders if they were to end that wait.  In the end, Motherwell dominated proceedings with a performance consisting of total control. Ibrahim Said headed Motherwell infront inside 15 minutes, and from there, the hosts didn't look back. With Celtic simply unable to find any control in the match, Elliot Watt converted a second on the hour mark as his side closed in on a famous victory. Celtic never recovered, and Jens Berthel Askou's side cruised to victory, ending 2025 in style.
