This is tragic news.

It was really nice having a goalie we could trust for a few games.

What a disaster ahead of Saturday.

Did I read right that we’ve loaned him back to them on an emergency loan and that he will be back?

This is a sickener after Saturday.

Hope he is back soon. Mehmet vs Raith already giving me the fear 😬

All we can do is do our very best to get behind Denis. At least he`s not a Mason.

Farcical rule to allow players out on loan to go back to their club outside of a transfer window. Whats the point in the window if they can just recall them when a player gets injured? Do Motherwell only have 3 keepers on their entire squad books?

If he doesn’t start game will be a bigger mockery. Our biggest league game of season could be derailed by him not being there.

Doubt he will be playing, its their sub keeper that`s injured. Shame for him, sure he would rather stay here playing games. Hopefully only for a week or so.

You can hardly blame Motherwell. We only have 2 keepers in our first-team squad and one of them was injured.

Most loans include a recall option and would have been agreed yb both parties before the deal was signed. Basic contract not a rule.

If we have two keepers who are physically fit do we qualify for an emergency loan?

Wouldn’t be allowed for any other position. Emergency loans and recalls are only available for goal keepers.

Recalls from any loans are standard practice and quite common. The signing wasn`t an emergency loan from what I see on COWS so this was probably built into the deal. Motherwell have put the following comms out:

Connelly suffered the injury during a training session this week.

As a result, we have exercised the option to emergency recall Oxborough from his loan spell at Dunfermline.

Emergency loans/recalls are usually on for 7 days. So more than likely a recall option was in the original deal.

^^ he wouldnt be able to come back to us if it was a recall as its outside the window. this is an emergency recall which basically gets updated weekly.

there would need to be a keeper good enough and available which i doubt there is if we did "qualify" but i dont think we do.

the clubs will know how long it might be for, hopefully we can get through the next two games assuming the Airdrie game gets moved too and he returns at the start of April. no idea if the club looked at whatever free agents were out there before signing Oxborough but if this is going to be 5-6 weeks, they have to look at alternatives.

You can’t recall outfield players from loan outwith the transfer windows.
