Manager Michael Wimmer is pleased to have defender Kofi Balmer available for Saturday's match against Hearts. The Motherwell boss offers his opinion and thoughts on VAR and referees in Scotland.  Wimmer explains how his team should be motivated to the max for the top-six shootout against Hearts on Saturday, with everyone fully aware of how big a game it is in the context of the Steelmen's season.

Motherwell returned from Ayrshire empty-handed, having played over 70 minutes with ten men on the pitch. Shortly after Kilmarnock's opener, Kofi Balmer was given his marching orders following contact on the follow-through with a Killie player.  From then on, the game was killed as a contest, with Derek McInnes' side having large spells of possession. They doubled their lead seven minutes after the interval from a corner, which secured the win for the hosts. However, with Hearts failing to register a win against Dundee United, the race for top-six will go down to the wire on Saturday, with Motherwell, Hearts and St Mirren all in contention.

Michael Wimmer gives his verdict on the 2-0 defeat to Kilmarnock at Rugby Park.

He was a landslide winner in March's player of the month vote. Here are Callum Slattery's best bits from the last four weeks.

Luke Armstrong says the players are ready to execute the manager's game plan on Saturday against Kilmarnock. The forward believes the plastic surface does change the game slightly but still believes it shouldn't change the team's approach.  Armstrong wants to show the manager and the fans that the team will fight until the end, no matter how the team is getting on. The Englishman also lays out his thoughts on his time in Scotland so far.

Manager Michael Wimmer is expecting to see a reaction from his players following the disappointing result in Aberdeen last weekend. Wimmer says Liam Gordon will miss out on the trip to Ayrshire, while Marvin Kaleta will be assessed.  Wimmer discusses his thoughts on playing the artificial surface, as well as recent speculation on the league expanding.

At a sold-out Pittodrie, Motherwell had 700 hearty fans in their corner, who made the long trip north hoping their side would make it four games unbeaten. With just three games to the split and well in the hunt for a top-six spot, every game is crucial. Those that travelled so Callum Slattery headed home in the early stages, making it three goals in two games. However, the lead wouldn't last long with Dorrington levelling up before Clarkson curled one into the net from a corner routine. Behind at the break, Tom Sparrow and Luke Armstrong would have sighters at goal but couldn't convert. Kevin Nisbet scored goals three and four for the Dons, who secured their top-six status in the process. It's back to the training pitches for Michael Wimmer's men, with another six-pointer against Kilmarnock looming on the horizon.

Michael Wimmer gives his thoughts on a 4-1 loss to Aberdeen at Pittodrie.

Tom Sparrow has enjoyed the new ideas being implemented under Michael Wimmer, and is looking forward to the rest of the season.  Sparrow is delighted to see the strong following that will be in Aberdeen on Saturday and is determined to send them down the road happy.

Manager Michael Wimmer thanks all the fans who are making the journey to Aberdeen on Saturday, as he says the connections between the club and supporters is growing.  He provides a fitness update on Steve Seddon, as well as talking about the race for top-six.

It was on the 19 March 1991 that Motherwell took a massive step towards Scottish Cup success by beating Morton in a penalty shootout in the Quarter Final. Motherwell took five and scored five, sparking wild celebrations as the Well faithful started to dream about cup glory.

Motherwell played St Mirren in their only home match of March, with both sides looking to help their chances of finishing in the top six. It was St Mirren who got off to the better start, with Boyd-Munce and Phillips finding the back of the net to put the three points firmly within the grasps of the visitors. But Motherwell showed character and willpower straight from kick-off, with Slattery scoring before the interval to make it 2-1. The number eight was at the heart of everything and once again scored in the second period to complete the comeback. St Mirren would get a man sent off in the latter stages, but in the end, it would be a point in the right direction for Michael Wimmer's side.
