Would you take a cup win over a good league finish? Motherwell fan Peter Elder joins PLZ Soccer for FANZONE, and he's in no doubt - after 35 years without a major trophy, he'd take a cup run over another top-six finish every time.
Peter reacts to Motherwell's European night against HJK Helsinki, looks ahead to next week's second leg, and gives his verdict on the Alfred Johansson transition - the new manager, the style of play and how well the club has handled the change behind the scenes. There's squad news too: the injuries, Callum Slatter's departure and how the recruitment is shaping up.
Then the big question: what does a good season actually look like at Fir Park? Top six? Back in Europe? Or ending the wait for silverware that stretches back to the 1991 Scottish Cup. Peter makes his case for the cup.
What would you take - a cup or the league? Let us know in the comments.
