Deals until 2006
Butcher and his assistant, former Dundee United FC and Scotland defender Maurice Malpas, have agreed new deals keeping them at Fir Park until 2006. The duo guided Motherwell to sixth place in the SPL last season at a time when the club were in administration.
Butcher delight
"We've agreed new contracts," said Butcher. "We are both here until 2006 and are delighted with that. We're near to signing, but it's just a case of carrying on until we get a moment to do it."
