Every year, Motherwell FC Community Trust looks to help improve people's lives in our local community. One of those excellent initiatives is the Festive Friends lunch that takes place at Fir Park.  Delivered in partnership with the SPFL Trust, Festive Friends provides a special free Christmas lunch, entertainment, and a welcoming environment for people who may have had a tough year, are looking for social connection or who otherwise may spend the festive season alone. The event continues to grow each year, reflecting the strength of community support and the importance of positive social experiences during the holidays. Ravenscraig Ltd, a leading sponsor for the initiative, provided a cash donation of £2,800 to cover the cost of meals for attendees. In an afternoon of laughter and socialising, the Motherwell FC squad were also on hand to help distribute the Christmas lunches and gifts to the attendees in the room before spending some time getting to know those in attendance. Ensuring that all costs were covered, Motherwell FC Community Trust was grateful for all support received for the event and hoped that everyone that attended had a lovely afternoon. Special thanks must go to New College Lanarkshire for the students who helped serve the meals. A special thanks also to the SPFL Trust for their involvement, as well as Kamen Brown for the entertainment provided.

Motherwell were sitting third in the table when they travelled to Falkirk on Wednesday night, playing their fourth game in ten days.  With the astroturf surface slick and wet, the ball was zipping around and the intensity in the game was high. Chances came and went for both sides, with Motherwell arguably having the better openings. But in the end, nobody could find the breakthrough goal, and it would be the second successive 0-0 draw for Motherwell. But it continued a seven-game unbeaten run, making it a third successive clean sheet in the Premiership. And with Livingston coming to Fir Park on Saturday, it could prove a valuable point come the end of the season.

Goalkeeper Calum Ward is pleased with the recent defensive recognition, and has gotten more comfortable in the team as the season has gone on.  Ward has been first-choice this campaign and hopes the attacking players can add more goals to the team, with defensive lines looking to keep up their recent form.

Assistant Manager Max Rogers believes Livingston pose a great threat, and have performed well in recent weeks. The three consecutive clean sheets gives the team a good grounding, but Rogers says the team having been working hard behind-the-scenes to get even better.  The Motherwell number two also discusses how opposition teams have been shaping up against Motherwell, as well as offering a squad update.

The manager gives his thoughts on the goalless draw with Falkirk at the Falkirk Stadium.

League leaders Hearts arrived at Fir Park looking to bounce back from their first league defeat of the season last weekend against Aberdeen.  But they were coming up against a Motherwell side who were in good form. Adopting their usual style of play, Motherwell controlled possession and limited Hearts to very few attacking openings. Callum Hendry would find the back of the net, but a VAR check concluded he was marginally offside. The chances kept coming for the Steelmen, Tawanda Maswanhise also scored but offside again would get in the way. Elijah Just, Lukas Fadinger and Callum Slattery all had good chances but the Hearts keeper would stand in their way, with the shot-stopper also picking up the man of the match award. In the end, it was points earned for Motherwell, although the performance deserved more. With a trip to Falkirk up next, Motherwell move up to third in the standings.

The manager shares his thoughts on taking a point from the league leaders at Fir Park.

Jens Berthel Askou has encouraged supporters to get down to Fir Park on Saturday, to help his players face off against Hearts who have a sold-out away crowd behind them. The Motherwell manager discusses the culture he has implemented at the club, his thoughts on how quickly he has changed the style of play and how his players look to avenge the previous meeting between the sides.

Tawanda Maswanhise is in red hot form in the Scottish Premiership and he is now setting his sights on continuing that run against league leaders Hearts.  Maswanhise discusses the manager's approach during the week, and how he has shifted mindset and style of play at the club.

Motherwell were at their very best when Hibernian came to Fir Park. The Steelmen were aiming to make it 13 points from a possible 15 and move to joint third in the process. That's exactly what they achieved.  Tawanda Maswanhise broke the deadlock from the penalty spot, moving the Zimbabwean to the top of the goalscoring charts in the Scottish Premiership. Elijah Just then doubled the advantage shortly afterwards, before Grant Hanley headed for an early shower before the first-half was out. Free-flowing football was in no short supply, as Motherwell racked up 70% possession over the course of the night, completing nearly 800 passes also. With the Motherwell fans fully entertained and engrossed, the Steelmen powered to the finish line, setting up an almighty clash with league leaders Hearts this weekend.
