A look at Michael Wimmer's first day at Fir Park which features meeting the coaching staff, a speech to his new squad and a trip to the training ground.

Michael Wimmer speaks for the first time as Motherwell manager. • Desire to develop youth players • Laying the groundwork • Passion from supporters

Andy Halliday says the players have been fully focused on achieving three points this weekend against Ross County and haven't let the manager search, that is currently ongoing, distract them.  Halliday is delighted to have teammate Lennon Miller back in contention this weekend, with the midfielder citing the role he plays in the team.

Interim manager Stevie Frail says clarity has been key for the players and the staff going into this weekend's William Hill Premiership match against Ross County. Frail had a full understanding that he would be taking the team well in advance for the fixture, which has helped everyone prepare sufficiently for the game.  Frail was also boosted by Lennon Miller's return to full training earlier in the week, saying he has played a pivotal role in the team success to this point.

Looking back at all 40 goals scored so far in all competitions this season.

One year ago today, Motherwell blew Ross County away under the Fir Park lights, cruising to a 5-0 thumping where the home support were introduced to Jack Vale.

After a difficult week at the football club, the Motherwell players were facing one of the toughest challenges of the league season, coming up against Champions Celtic. With interim manager Stephen Frail saying the players owed it to themselves and the fans to put in a battling performance, all game plans went out the window after just 49 seconds, when Daizen Maeda opened the scoring for the visitors. After the worst possible start, the Steelmen regrouped and battled their way back into the game. Luke Armstrong, having been handed his first start, found the back of the net for the first time in claret and amber just after 20 minutes. Celtic went back ahead moments later through Adam Idah, and although Motherwell stayed in the game right until stoppage time, the Champions eventually applied the icing on the cake with the last kick of the ball to make it 3-1. With a fortnight between this game and the next, a reset, recovery, and the small task of finding a new manager will all occur prior to Ross County's arrival on the 15 February.

Stephen Frail's post-match thoughts.

Vice-captain Stephen O'Donnell says this week has been filled with emotion and shock but the focus has shifted onto the match against Celtic on Sunday. O'Donnell knows the task that awaits the team this weekend in the William Hill Premiership.

Stephen Frail has taken the reigns since Stuart Kettlewell's departure, and has had to draw a line under the manager leaving earlier in the week so the players and staff can focus on the difficult task of the Champions visiting Fir Park on Sunday in the William Hill Premiership.  Frail talks about the great fanbase the club has and wants everyone to be connected going forward.

Chief Executive Brian Caldwell speaks for the first time since Stuart Kettlewell left the club. Caldwell discusses the process in which Kettlewell handed in his resignation, and the thought process of the former manager.  He also talks about why the club were transparent on the issue and revealed that there has been high interest in the vacant position.
