Massive thanks to both clubs, Sky, and all Motherwell and Celtic fans today for paying such a totally respectful tribute. A great display for Danny McGrain too. All the best to Danny and his family
A minute's applause before kick-off to remember Motherwell’s former chairman, Brian McCafferty, who died at the age of 79.

I had the honour of being co-opted to @TheWellSociety board by Brian back in 2012 during my 1st spell. His guidance and stewardship was invaluable then, but recently his advice and wisdom has been hugely beneficial. A giant of our fan ownership movement. One of the very best!❤️
