Annan bag Rhys Breen on loan. That's an exceptional piece of business in my opinion

I'd say he's under severe, and increasing pressure, each game that goes by without a win. You'd be hard pushed to find any Cove fan that would want to keep him. He's working on a tighter budget this year evidently but his time was up long ago for me. You've hit the nail on the head, it's down to cost to get rid of him and clearly his links with Sheran. We're, I guess, the only SPFL club without an assistant manager. That's cost related in my eyes too. Our next league games after this one are Kelty (A), Caley (A), Arbroath (H), Alloa (A), QoS (H), Mo (A) Tough run that gets tougher until a win and some confidence is restored. Hard to get off the slippery slope.

Defensively we are polar opposites, managerial talent we are miles apart; this could easily be a repeat of what happened in March with the fans calling for action from our board at full time. To add to our woes we're still short up top and who knows where Mitch is. Optimistically we're at home. Glass and Fyvie seem to be reuniting their connection of a few years ago and young Dons Findlay Marshall and Adam Emslie are undoubtedly talents. Can only see a Montrose win though. Score Prediction: Cove 0 Montrose 2

I've asked myself that same question ever week since his return. He's completely lost the fans and we're getting close to self destruction keeping him in the seat for me. We're not cut adrift, only 4 games in, time to turn it around but it's time for a change and someone else to be given the reins.

Fraser Bryden should do very well for you lads. He was on my loan list for us but realistically he was going to be loaned to a club closer than the other edge of the country. Scored a screamer against us in our Championship season. Check this out around 2 minutes 50 seconds https://youtu.be/-Ttazdto-jc?si=NmYWW0mCJ8r7UWG-

Cove sign attacking midfielder Rueben McAllister on loan from Hibs until January and central defender Liam Parker on a season long loan from St Johnstone

That's about what I thought. I wonder how similar to a young Declan Glass he is? He'll be an option, if he impresses from the get-go he might get an extended run in the side. We're overran with options in the midfield now with Fyvie, Glass, Scully, Yule, Marshall, Emslie. Not complaining about that but would love a striker. Glad to see Williamson get off the mark for the maroon machine. Tidser doing some decent business this summer, promising for you lads.

To be honest the bar is extremely low to beat currently with our shambles of a defence. He'll likely walk into the starting XI and own his position regardless. Fingers crossed he does as well for us as Ross Graham did a few years back. You boys keeping Sidibeh? Unearthed a talent there. Also hope that Sanders works out well for you when he features. He was a fan favourite with us in our Championship season.

Rueben McAllister away to sign on loan from Hibs. Young lad but ready for L1 as a regular @Kelheart / @leomessi1984?

St Johnstone 20 year old defender Liam Parker signs on a season long. 6ft 4 centre back is exactly what we needed; he better be immense to sort out our backline. Lots of pressure but hopefully shines. @RandomGuy. / @AllyMonc thoughts on Liam?

He was on my list of potential loan summer targets about 5 or 6 pages ago. Clearly has huge potential but the last thing we need is another midfielder in all honesty. Hartley building a team of all midfielders sounds about right. Absolutely crying out for centre backs and strikers. We'd only have 3 loans remaining if this comes to fruition.

The link was his goal against Thistle in the league cup last sesson. Rocket into the top corner

I'm a big fan of Ryan Duncan, seen him many times for the Dons and at his loan spell at Peterhead. He'll be a tremendous loan signing for the Spiders. Got pace, delivery and will chip in with goals. I'd have love to see him at Balmoral but sadly he's well above L1 and our current recruitment level. With Aberdeen awash with cash thanks to the Bojan sale and bringing in talent from all over Europe I doubt Ryan will ever burst through as a regular with them but he's got a solid career ahead of him in my opinion. All the best for the season ahead. Capable of this https://youtu.be/Wn4dQc5fMKQ?si=V2b5gxBvt35IWR5Z

Exactly my thoughts too. Dipo Akinyemi lit up the Championship whilst we were in that division and moved to York City in the NL. Burrell going to L1 shocked me but fair play to him. One golden season in L1 and his agent worked some magic. Hopefully kicks on and proves his worth.
