    Former Swansea City midfielder Lee Lucas has signed for Motherwell for a second time this season.

    The 24-year-old had initially signed a short-term deal in July following his release by the English Premier League club.

    That was cut short by a hamstring injury picked up in his debut, but now he has signed for Well until January.

    Manager Mark McGhee told his club website: "We look forward to continuing to work with Lee for the duration of his contract and hopefully beyond."

    The fourth and final part of Scotland's Game, a 30-year social history of Scottish football, is broadcast on BBC One Scotland tonight at 21:00 BST.

    It examines the rise, and prejudices, faced by women's football and the fantastic irony of, in a male-dominated landscape, Scotland's women's team being closer now to reaching a major championship than their male equivalents.
