The 2020-21 campaign delivered a challenging but respectable 8th-place finish for Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership. The season was characterized by the mid-season appointment of manager Graham Alexander, who successfully steered The Steelmen clear of the relegation play-off places with a strong run of results after the league split. Leading the attack was the impactful forward Tony Watt, whose 7 league goals proved vital in a campaign built on defensive solidity and a surge in form during the crucial second half of the year. It was a crucial year that saw the team consolidate their top-flight status and remains a chapter defining the club's resilience.
