Apparently our old friend Mr Derek Townsley has been told that
Hibs won't be offering him a new contract. Tragic, eh?

Ahead of Saturday's vital match with Dundee Utd, Scott Leitch has told his young team mates that
he doesn't want them feeling any pressure going into the game:
"I want to do the worrying for the young guys.
In such a massive game, the good thing for us is that they will go
into it as they do for every other one - as if they didn't have a
care in the world.
Perhaps they don't quite realise what this could mean for
Motherwell, as much as us more senior guys at any rate, and I don't
see that being a bad thing.
They should let us take on all the pressure. I wouldn't want
someone like David Clarkson, who is only 17, to feel any strain as
it would do him no good.
The manager said this was bigger than the Scottish Cup semi-final
and I would go along with that. If we win, then we go two points
ahead of United with a game in hand. They win, and we're four behind
them.
We don't know what is going to happen with relegation, but the one
thing I do know is that I don't want to finish bottom of this
league. I've never had that experience and don't want it this
season."
Mind you, if this Daily Record article is anything to go by, perhaps there won't be much at stake
on Saturday after all...
Apparently Stevie Hammell was withdrawn from the Scotland Under-21 squad the other night to
protect his hand injury.
