That the Parliament congratulates Motherwell Football Club on securing European qualification after finishing fourth in the Scottish Premiership; understands that Jens Berthel Askou’s side hit a new club clean-sheet record and achieved its fourth-highest points tally in the three-points-for-a-win era, and further understands that it recorded the fewest league defeats in a top-flight season since 1959 as well as the fewest goals conceded in a top-flight season since 1932.
