Noticed Kyle McDonald played 90 minutes for Dunfermline today. Genuinely not that fussed if he comes back or not don’t think he’d be a massive miss. The young boy that played right back against cove was decent enough and if he’s a player who’ll be around longer than the end of the season I’d rather go with that.
I'm only going by what Murray said

I am assuming that training has commenced again but radio silence from the club. A bit of communication wouldn't go amiss or folk start to speculate. It ain't rocket science. What about an update Airdrie?
They commenced training on Sunday
Training atm is Sun,Tues,Thurs,

That must have touched a nerve
Tbh I think your constant abuse of sean crighton is out of order,I've met him a few times and he really cares about airdrie same way Hutton did,he wouldn't have left the first time if it wasn't for airdrie going full time,so just cut the hard man behind the keyboard pish,PH and the rest of the club are trying to achieve us promotion and they want to do it with the fans so stop being so negative or go sit in a huff with the trust

Are you mental? Here's his record:
Years Team Apps (Gls) 2014–2016 Doncaster Rovers 4 (0) 2015 → Ilkeston (loan) 4 (0) 2016–2017 Leeds United 0 (0) 2017 → Airdrieonians (loan) 15 (1) 2018–2019 Cardiff City 0 (0) 2019 → Chesterfield (loan) 4 (0) 2019– Chesterfield 15 (2) 2021 → Blyth Spartans (loan) 0 (0) 2021– → Airdrieonians (loan) 0 (0) Not to mention that we will be stuck with this clown starting every game due to the same nepotism that has rendered Paul undroppable.
Thank **** they weren't triplets.
If it makes you feel any better, here is a glowing review about his abilities regarding his signing on twitter:

"One of the worst players I've ever seen at Chesterfield"
I know a guy that supports Chesterfield when he played for them he played Right Wing-Back

I reckon Murray will be the next one out the door at the end of the season if it resumes or if it don't it will imminent after the leagues review

The club really need to start explaining their transfer policy. Jack McKay? That's the answer? Really? A "striker" who scored 1 goal in 15 games last time around, and for whom there's a pretty much UK wide consensus that he is pish, and couldn't even get a game at Blyth Spartans in the National League North?
What a joke. Just close down this season already, before things get any worse.
Does it really matter we won't be a playing this season out well done to the people who voted snp utter clusterfucks

Imagine doubting him,he was at airdrie at 19 and played about a handful of games and went away got a bit of experience and he's back to prove himself he may be a better player than before at least give the lad a Chance ffs he can't be any worse than Thomson,O'Reilly and Stokes that gets a game.

Don't know how true this is but I was told that someone involved at Stirling Albion had also offered him a non-footballing job to go along with the football contract. I was told the name at the time but can't remember it. He was something to do with Tom Wothorspoon.
Andy Ryan works in the warehouse for M&H logistics,heard about it when he signed for Stirling airdrie offered him the same wages FT as Stirling offered him PT but he was offered to work in the M&H warehouse to make him earn even more

Sometimes Crighton playing upfront, you know it's a lost game then, manager on the panic button,
That shows you the manager aint got a clue you've got a striker on the bench that got 10+ goals on the bench and we throw a big clumsy center half up front

Right, here's my assessment of the squad then. A lot of the problems are due to our style of play. Italics are players who I would be comfortable with moving on if some sort of offer came in:
Max Currie: - Average "safe" goalkeeper. Keep
Reece Murdoch: Keep on the basis of needing a 2nd keeper.
Joshua Burke: Was a bit all over the place pre-season when he got a chance, ended up being loaned out, move him on.
Sean Crighton: When he plays badly we get thumped. If we got an offer I'd let him go in all honesty, but at the moment would drop him for 3 weeks (irrelvant at the moment I suppose as we cant play any games) and see if he can sort out his form.
Callum Fordyce: Keep
Josh Kerr: Keep until the end of the season then review options. Would like to see him back in centre defence for a few games instead of Crighton.
Kyle MacDonald: Not sure if he is handling the big games as well as I would like, but would prefer to hold onto him.
Harlain Mbayo: I think he has conceded a penalty in most games he has been involved in? Not sure what he brings to the squad, so would let him go.
Leon McCann: Regressed since last season, but keep for now.
Scott Walker: Isn't really going to get a game, release
Paul McKay: The mysterious, undroppable Paul McKay. He's not going to get better, hes not going to be the difference in winning points. I think a few games without him in the team would show that he isn't really bringing anything to the table.
Joseph Moore: Another one of these guys who were kept on and won't get to play, therefore what's the point in having them signed?
Euan O'Reilly: Enthusiastic, but doesn't actually create any goals. The sort of player we should be loaning out to see if he can work out how to produce end product. Release in current climate.
Dean Ritchie: Keep due to utility.
Thomas Robert: I like the guy, but compared to former forwards like Alan Gow/Wullie McLaren/Alan Lawrence? Has to go if we get an offer.
Griffin Sabatini: If he wasn't a loan player I would build my team around his style of play, as it is he is wasted as we don't play in a way that gets the most out of him.Eoghan Stokes: Tries when he gets the chance, and seems a bit more streetwise than a lot of the squad. But the style of play render him non functional more often than not.
Craig Thomson: Liked him at the start of last season, hasn't impressed this season. Doesn't seem to be able to get past a man and put the ball at a teammates feet. If a wide midfielder/winger cant do that, there's no point playing them.
Dale Carrick: Generally happy with Dale, would hold onto him.
Kyle Connell: Keep as long as we can. Will suffer from lack of service though.
Callum Gallacher: Hasn't really had the chances this season compared to last season. A player who will score goals if they get the chances to though. Would move him on if someone was available that would go into the first team.
James Hughes: Won't get a game, therefore can go.
Patrick Pyott: As above.
Ally Roy: Wouldn't have re-signed him, and although he had a good pre-season isnt really doing it now (although he is just back from injury). Like Gal, surplus to requirements if not getting a game.Fair assessment but mckay won't ever be dropped as long as his family is still involved at airdrie

Was just looking at the squad list and, without naming names, as the list would be too long, I would happily punt about 12-14 players + manager at the moment if I could, and try to get something better.
Get them named!

What do the club do now, play him and risk injury etc, or wrap him in cotton wool awaiting a bid.....
Personally I don't think it is worth the risk in playing the lad, The Agents are doing a fantastic job in promoting their asset to all potential suitors...
Let's wait and see ....
Thats what we'll do risk the chance of getting up by winning the league or play offs in the chance that the ugly sisters of Glasgow come in or and English team comes in.
Have a day off!

At the time I thought Black was a disgrace. Looking back now, he probably had the lowest budget in the league. I feel bad that at times Sandy, Kenny and Jimmy all got dogs abuse when They probably just matched performance in the league with our budget?
He’s the highest paid manager we’ve ever had he was the 5th highest paid manager in Scotland at the time,Ballantyne offered him a new deal to warrant off interest from Dundee or for Dundee to pay to speak to kenny but as he was offering kenny a new deal he was cutting budgets and taking away some of kennys very very very small budget and that’s when the "managed decline” started to happen

Who ever it was that said that “they don’t get all the fuss about Sabatini” yesterday proved how good a player Sabatini is and has been

Do not understand why MacDonald has been dropped. Kerr, McKay or Fordyce moving to right-back? That central midfield still isn't creative enough either. Poor stuff.
That right?

If Thomson or Euan O'Reilly starts tomorrow just sack Murray before the game starts!
Both aren’t good enough to be woeful

Honestly baffles me how Millar (in my opinion was our best player last season) doesn’t get a new contract but a diddy like McKay does? All he offers is his throw-ins and we’ve only scored once from it from what i remember. If Connell can take these throw-ins, McKay in reality doesn’t have a place on the park. Starting today with only 1 changed player from last seasons starting 11 is crazy aswell, can only assume Murray sees something in training that we don’t. Can only hope McKay and Thomson get dropped for next week and Sab and O’Reilly come in in their place. Was surprised at Sean today aswell, arguably the best CB in the league on his day seemed completely lost. Can only hope for wholesale changes on their performance next Saturday.
Because rumour has it that his family are involved with Airdrie.....Not saying it’s true tho just heard it being mentioned a few times

Yea he knew things before even folk at the club knew but who exactly is PH gonna fall out with himself?Obvs the club needs money in from Matchdays SM chose to walk away now because he was getting punted in the summer the man refused his wages from January,there's finances there for next season for IM or a new manager maybe AyrDiamond just wants to derail PH because he's not at airdrie anymore
