Motherwell Football & Athletic Club are a Scottish professional football club based in Motherwell, North Lanarkshire. The club compete in the Scottish Premier League and are one of only seven teams to have remained in this league since it was founded in 1998. Motherwell have not dropped out of the top-flight of Scottish football since 1984, but have only lifted one trophy in that time – the Scottish Cup in 1991.
Clad in the traditional claret and amber, Motherwell play their home matches at Fir Park Stadium[1] and have done since 1896. The club's main rivals over the years have been Hamilton Academical and Airdrie United, due in part to their close geographical proximities. This is known as the Lanarkshire derby. Hamilton were in the top flight from 2008 to 2011, and were Motherwell's regular derby opponents.
History
Beginnings
Motherwell FC were born on 27 May 1886, when representatives of the two main Motherwell works teams, Glencairn and Alpha FC met in Ballie's pub in Parkneuk, and decided to merge the two teams, with the aim of creating a club to represent the town as a whole at a higher footballing level. Motherwell's debut fixture proved to be a successful one as they overcame Hamilton Academicals 3–2.
The early years proved somewhat chaotic as the club had little regular competition to play in, and matches would often start with players short, as men failed to turn up on time after their shifts in the local ironworks. In 1893 the decision was made to turn professional.
Up until 1895 the club had played at a few different venues, including a site at Roman Road, and Dalziel Park. The conditions at Dalziel Park were deemed unsuitable and fortunately Lord Hamilton granted a lease on a plot of land on his Dalziel estate. This new ground was named Fir Park and has remained the club's home for over one hundred years.
The following years saw the club grow, appointing their first and longest serving manager to date, John 'Sailor' Hunter, who would go on to steer the club into its most successful period.
In 1913 the decision was made to change the clubs colours from blue to the now signature claret and amber. It is thought this was inspired by the success of Bradford City, who also sport claret and amber, although a more romantic version of events claims them to have been Lord Hamilton of Dalziel's racing colours. [3]
1920s and 1930s successes

Motherwell enjoyed a successful period in the aftermath of World War I, managed by John Hunter. The club placed third in the 1919–20 season and, although narrowly avoiding relegation in 1924–25, they steadily climbed the table and enjoyed seven successive seasons finishing in the top three.
In the summer of 1927, the club made a very successful tour of Spain, winning six out of the eight games they played and losing only one. These results included an emphatic 3–1 victory over Real Madrid and a 2–2 draw with Barcelona. Following their success in Spain, the club went on another summer tour, this time of South America. After losing only three of their previous ten games, the tour culminated in a 5–0 defeat by a Brazilian League Select side.[5]
Motherwell's first (and to this day, only) First Division league championship came in 1931–32 – with 30 wins in 38 fixtures, scoring 119 goals – a record 52 of which were scored by Willie MacFadyen, who remains to this day the record holder for most goals scored in a single season and one of the club's all-time top goalscorers with 251 goals. This was also the only League title won by a club outside the Old Firm between 1904 and 1947. In the two seasons following the league title win, 'Well finished runners up (seasons 1933–34 Scottish Football League and 1933–34 Scottish Football League). Motherwell also contested three Scottish Cup finals in this period – in 1931, 1933 and 1939.
Post-World War II period
Following the breakup of the squad after World War II, the club were not instantly successful. It then captured two major trophies in as many years with victories in the 1950 Scottish League Cup Final and the 1952 Scottish Cup Final. The club was then relegated for the first time ever at the end of the 1952–53 season, but the club were promoted the next year.
Following their return to the First Division, Bobby Ancell took management of the club in 1955 and presided over an era in which highly regarded Scotland stars including Ian St. John and Charlie Aitken played for the club.[6] However, Motherwell were unable to keep their assets, and no trophies were won in Ancell's era. His resignation came in 1965 amidst a downturn in form which eventually saw the club relegated back to the Second Division at the conclusion of the 1967–68 season.
1970s recovery and the McLean era
Motherwell were immediately promoted back to the First Division in 1969, maintaining a mid-table position. When the 18-team First Division was superseded by a new 10-team Premier League for the 1975–76 season, at which time they were managed by Willie McLean and his assistant Craig Brown (who would become manager almost 35 years later). Under their management, Motherwell improved to fourth in the table and had a highly regarded team which featured players such as Willie Pettigrew, Bobby Watson and former Liverpool player, Bobby Graham. The most notable achievement of that period was the 1976 cup run which saw them eliminate Celtic in the first round and lose out in the semi final to Rangers.
1980 and 90s
Relegation down to the now-First Division and promotion back to the Premier League occurred twice in the early 1980s, before a decade under manager Tommy McLean (brother of Willie) culminated in a Scottish Cup win in 1991. However, similarly to the Ancell era, Scotland internationalist, Tom Boyd, was sold in the close season after the cup win. Results faded for two years before reaching another two season zenith immediately following the signing of Paul Lambert with third (1993–94) and second-placed (1994–95) Premier League finishes. The 1995 runners up finish was the club's highest finish since 1933/34.
With Tommy McLean's departure to Hearts in 1994, much of his squad was broken up; a large fee in particular was paid by Celtic for Phil O'Donnell. Much of this money was reinvested in the squad, while the club cycled through managers including Alex McLeish and Harri Kampman. At this point, in 1997, John Boyle bought the club and installed Billy Davies as manager. Davies paid large transfer fees and wages to a number of prominent players including ex-Scotland internationals John Spencer and Andy Goram. The investment though failed to provide results on the pitch.
21st century
By the end of Davies' tenure the club were in financial trouble. Eric Black was briefly in charge with the club floating near the foot of the table before it was placed in administration in April 2002 with losses approaching GBP 2 million yearly.[7] Black resigned, and was replaced by Terry Butcher. The club's outlook remained bleak as they were forced to make redundant or release 19 players and replace them with younger players; Boyle also placed the club up for sale.[8] Relegation in 2002–03 – normally automatic following a last-place finish in the league – was avoided on a technicality, as First Division winners Falkirk lacked a stadium meeting Premier League regulations.[9]
Despite the lack of resources, a number of young talented players were found to play for the club; crucially, when many of these moved on, including Stephen Pearson and James McFadden, they brought revenue in the form of transfer fees, and with John Boyle waiving the club's personal debt to him, its financial future was assured by the conclusion of the 2004–05 season with the club's yearly losses falling to one of the lowest figures in the Premier League[10] and the club coming out of administration in time to avoid a ten-point Premier League penalty which was being phased in for teams in administration.[11] On the field, the club also managed to reach the League Cup final, although they were comprehensively defeated by Rangers. Butcher moved on to Sydney at the end of the 2005–06 season, and was succeeded by his assistant Maurice Malpas. Malpas' stint at the club lasted just one season before his resignation in May 2007. After a short period with Scott Leitch as caretaker manager, Mark McGhee was appointed to the position.[12] Mark McGhee left Motherwell for the vacant managerial position at Aberdeen in June 2009 to be replace by Jim Gannon. Former Scotland manager Craig Brown took over when Gannon left however Brown also left Motherwell for Aberdeen on 10 December 2010.[13] Stuart McCall was named as his successor. The 2012 season saw Motherwell reach the qualifying round of the Champions League for the first time. They finished third, one place outside the normal two spots allocated to the SPL for the Champions League but were given a place because Rangers, who finished above them, were prevented by UEFA from playing in European competitions due to their financial difficulties. The draw for the 3rd qualification round of the Champions League would see Motherwell drawn against Greek heavyweights, Panathanaikos.
Records and statistics
The club has won four major trophies in its history: the First Division in 1931–32, the Scottish Cup in 1952 and 1991, and the Scottish League Cup in 1950. In addition, it has won the second-tier Scottish league on four occasions; as the Second Division in 1953–54 and 1968–69, and as the First Division (beneath the Premier League) in 1981–82 and 1984–85. It also won the Milk Cup, in 1983.
Bob Ferrier holds the record for the number of Motherwell appearances, with 626 in the inter-war period. The goalscoring record is held by Hughie Ferguson, who scored 284 league goals in 10 seasons in the 1910s and 1920s. Willie MacFadyen's 52 goals in the title-winning 1931–32 season remains a club (and country) record for goals in one season.
The clubs record European appearance holder is Mark Reynolds, with 14 appearances for the club in Europe. The current record European goalscorer is Jamie Murphy, with seven goals. Also, the 8–1 win over Flamurtari on 23 July 2009 currently stands as their record victory in European competition.[14]
Fir Park's current safety certificate limits the capacity to 13,742, all-seated in accordance with the Taylor Report. Its average home gate for the 2006–07 season was 5,885.[15] The club's record attendance for a home match is 35,632, against Rangers in a Scottish Cup quarter-final replay on 12 March 1952.
Motherwell's biggest win was a 12–1 victory over Dundee United in 1954, with the clubs heaviest defeat being the 8–0 loss to Aberdeen in 1979.[16]
On 5 May 2010, Motherwell were involved in the highest scoring match in the SPL, drawing 6–6 with Hibernian at Fir Park, with Lukas Jutkiewicz scoring the equaliser in the 91st minute.[17] This eclipsed another high-scoring game involving Motherwell, a 6–5 defeat by Aberdeen on 20 October 1999.[18] The record transfer fee paid by the club was to Everton for John Spencer in 1999 (GPB 500,000) and the highest received was that for Phil O'Donnell for his move to Celtic in 1994 (GBP 1,750,000). O'Donnell later rejoined Motherwell in 2004, but his second spell at Fir Park ended when he died after collapsing on the pitch in a game against Dundee United on 29 December 2007.[19][20]
Stephen Craigan holds the record for the most-capped player at the club, with 52 caps for Northern Ireland.[21][22]

Europe
Motherwell had a few brief forays in to European football in the early 1990s with arguably their biggest European match being played when they met Borussia Dortmund in the 1994-95 UEFA Cup. Motherwell lost the away leg narrowly before exiting the competition with a 2–0 reverse at Fir Park. These low score-lines belied the quality of a Dortmund side who went on to win the 1996–97 UEFA Champions League with a team incorporating only one change from the side that knocked Motherwell out of the UEFA Cup – the addition being Paul Lambert who had played for Motherwell.
Following defeat at the hands of Finnish side MyPA-47 in 1995, Motherwell bowed out of European competition until a third place finish in the 2007-08 Scottish Premier League qualified them for the 2008-09 UEFA Cup. Motherwell were drawn against AS Nancy of France, avoiding the likes of Valencia, Sparta Prague, Club Brugge and Manchester City. The first leg was played in France on 18 September with the home team winning 1–0. The second leg was played at Fir Park on the 2 October, with Motherwell losing 2–0, going out 3–0 on aggregate.[24]
Motherwell qualified for Europe for a second consecutive season and competed in the first-ever UEFA Europa League, after being awarded a Fair Play place by UEFA. They entered in the first qualifying round[25] and progressed as far as the third qualifying round with aggregate victories over Welsh Premier League runners up Llanelli (3–1)[26] and KS Flamurtari Vlore of Albania (8–2).[14] However two defeats in the third qualifying round against Steaua Bucharest (3–0 and 3–1)[27][28] put paid to their hopes of qualifying for the competition proper.
After Jim Gannon's dismissal in December 2009, Motherwell's form improved under new manager, Craig Brown, and the club finished fifth in the 2009-10 Scottish Premier League. This, coupled with Dundee United finishing third and winning the Scottish Cup, meant that Motherwell qualified for Europe for a third successive year. The team's run in the 2010-11 UEFA Europa League is, to date, the club's most successful European campaign. This campaign saw Motherwell tour Scandinavia with a 2–0 aggregate victory over Icelandic side Breiðablik UBK[29] in the second qualifying round and a 4–1 aggregate win over Norway's Aalesunds FK in the third qualifying round.[30] Motherwell were then drawn against Odense BK of Denmark for the play-off round. Despite scoring an away goal in the first leg,[31] Motherwell exited the competition with a 3–1 aggregate loss after losing 1–0 at Fir Park.[32]

Sponsorship
Motherwell are currently sponsored by Cash Converters, a worldwide franchise company, in a deal for the 2011–12 season,[40] replacing Commsworld as the principal sponsor from the 2010–11 season.[41] Due to the sponsorship deal not being agreed in time for the start of the 2010–11 UEFA Europa League the team briefly featured www.chooselife.net as their main shirt sponsor. The team shirts continue to carry this sponsorship on the back of the shirt.[42] For the 2009/10 season the team were sponsored by JAXX, a German gambling company. They in turn had replaced Anglian Home Improvements, who were the club's shirt sponsor from 2007 to 2009. Previous to this the club had been sponsored by Zoom Airlines, who were part-owned by club director John Boyle, and who retained advertising space on both the Davie Cooper Stand and the South Stand[43] until they ceased trading in August 2008.
The previous sponsor, from 2002–04, was a local company called The Untouchables.[44] Previously the club had enjoyed a long-term association with Motorola, but this ended after 11 years in 2002 as the sponsor started to reduce its manufacturing operations in Scotland. This had in turn followed another long-term association with local car dealer Ian Skelly, who had sponsored the club since 1984.
The club have had a number of different kit manufacturers since the 1970s. At present the official kit supplier is Puma who were newly announced for the 2010/11 season to replace Canterbury. New-Zealand based sporting goods manufacturer, Canterbury, were announced as the official kit supplier to Motherwell for the four years beginning with the 2009/10 season, taking over from Bukta. However Canterbury went into administration after less than one year of the contract had been completed.[45] Major manufacturers Adidas, Admiral, Hummel, Patrick, Pony, Umbro and Xara have all been kit providers for Motherwell.
