Future
At the 2008 annual general meeting, Motherwell FC announced plans to investigate the possibility of a redevelopment of Fir Park, or the possibility of a move to a new ground. Motherwell chairman John Boyle indicated at the following years agm that the club would not be leaving Fir Park within the next 5–10 years. In June 2010, the club said that the repair of the pitch, which had come in for some fierce criticism in the latter part of the 2009-10 season, would be the last major investment at the stadium. Most recently, in September 2011, vice-chairman Derek Weir indicated that the club are 'nowhere near' a ground move, insisting that the £15 million it would cost would be beyond their means.

“Peace does not appear so distant as it did. I hope it will come soon, and come to stay; and so come as to be worth the keeping in all future time. It will then have been proved that, among free men, there can be no successful appeal from the ballot to the bullet; and that they who take such appeal are sure to lose their case, and pay the cost.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

I will build a steel bridge over my need!
I will build a bomb shelter over my heart!

It is as shy as a mole.”
