I'm pleased with the two signings Aitken has made so far in Gallagher and Buchanan. I don't know much of them if truth be told, but going by reports from fans of their last two clubs, they would seem to be decent additions. And it's refreshing that they're up-and-coming young players, hopefully with lots of ambition to succeed in making the step-up. I'd rather have players in that mould than ones dropping down from the SPL who maybe don't have the same desire to succeed at this level.
I'd also be of the same opinion as those who aren't worrying at all about the players from last season who haven't yet signed up. As has been said, the season hasn't even finished yet and players will naturally want to mull over their options. I'm sure Aitken will have offered deals to those he wants to keep, and let's be honest, there can't be a more attractive part-time side out there than us, so I'd be pretty hopeful of keeping the ones that would be worth retaining, unless they're going full-time, which I can't imagine being the case for most of the ones left from last season's squad.
