Scottish Premier League: Motherwell

(CLICK ON THE EMBLEM TO GO TO THE TEAM SITE)

Motherwell football club was formed in 1886. Motherwell is between Glasgow and Edinburgh. An industrial town with many working class fans. A period of time similar to the Cincinnati Reds of Major League baseball. Their best season so far was the 1926-1927 squad and for the following seven seasons they remained in the top three, winning the league title in 1932 for the very first time. Motherwell's first major Cup success came in 1950 by winning the League Cup, being Hibs 3-0 in the Final. The Scottish Cup jinx was finally laid to rest two years later when 136,274 fans saw Motherwell beat Dundee 4-0 at Hampden to lift the Cup for the first time.
In recent times, Motherwell won the Scotish Cup in 1991.
On December 29, 2007, their team captain, Neil O'Donnell died on the pitch. Click on the picture of him to get more information.
