Tony Dingwall signed up until end of season. Good addition to the squad.

Our manager wasn't near the press because he was at the ambulance with Ross Clarke and then was trying to sort out what was happening with his car etc.
The rammy was kicked off due to Gavin Price marching to the middle of the stand and shouting "it wasn't even a foul" to the clearly irate Cowdenbeath bench. A stupid thing to do. Craig Easton shouldn't have reacted the way he did granted but all of the anger was being directed to the referee until Price got involved.
Again how anybody can look at that and say it's not a foul is beyond me. It's wild, dangerous and clearly endangered the opposing player. I don't think anybody would say the Elgin player meant to hurt Clarke but it was a bad tackle.
The conduct of one of the Cowdenbeath entourage sitting in the stand was a big factor in inflaming the situation. I can tell you from first hand he directed a constant stream or vitriol and abuse littered with profanity at the Home bench. He was also told on several occasions to put his face mask back on by stewards but refused to do so. His verbals clearly enflamed things. If you have access to the stream. Go and have a listen, and tell me you’re not just a wee bit embarrassed.
At the time it happened I thought it was a reasonable and robust tackle which neither the ref nor the linesman called as even a foul. Having watched it back a number of times it’s clear that it could have easily been called as a red card.
However, somehow calling it all as Gavin Price fault is just ridiculous.
Hopefully the lad will
Make a full recovery. I’m sure everyone at Elgin is thinking the same.0 -
I heard he took a call from Gavin Price who wanted to tell him it wasn’t a foul.
Grow up0 -
All the best for a speedy recovery Ross.

Perhaps Gavin walked up in response to the 5 mins of Bollan etc shouting "Gavin" every few seconds and calling every man and his dog a f#@kng disgrace etc...
The ref was called Gavin too. Suspect Bollan was shouting at him to be fair1 -
You must be the clown I can hear shouting and swearing in the stand. Obviously not wearing a mask putting the return to stadium of fans at risk.
You’re making a bit of a twat of yourself mate. Not happy that the lads got a bad injury. It’s a real shame for him. At the time it looked a fair challenge.0 -

I’m in the ground right enough. Both challenging for the ball. Not even a yellow

50/50 ball, not even a card. Cowdenbeath officials an absolute embarrassment

The 220 is based on the number of virtual season ticket holders. These people have all paid and it includes entry to the ground. I suspect that once stewarding is taken into account, the club will make a loss. Think it was a close call whether or not to go ahead with it. I hope to be there and can’t wait to support the players

Darryl is a heart on the sleeve local lad. He gave 100% on the pitch. Can’t tell how he may have improved once over his injury, but got to say the defence is better now since the young lad Graham brought in. He has been a calming influence at the back, and brought out the best in bronsky. He’s constantly talking to his fellow defenders and organising. Can see how DU rate him so highly. Also think Archie has improved the team.

Every Elgin player turned up today. Thoroughly deserved win and shows what we are capable of. Fyvie very lucky to escape a straight red for a cynical foul. Bronsky MOM, but could
Have picked any one of the Elgin side. Rory Mcewan is a young lad who looks better every time I see him and the defence has a much calmer look to it with the young lad from Dundee U standing out. Weekend made[emoji106]2 -
Annan maybe set up in a way that suits Elgin’s game.

Drop balls can no longer be contested, If play is stopped, the ball will be dropped to a player on the team that last touched the ball - and where they touched it. All other players must be 4.5 yards (4m) away.
Whether they decide to give the ball back as an act of sportsmanship is up to them. If Elgin were fighting for there lives at the bottom of the league I guess I would be perfectly happy with the goal.
