Hank Scorpio Posted December 15, 2021 Author Share Posted December 15, 2021 We tried to get him before, when he signed for Dundee Utd. Happy enough with that, good experience at this level. Can’t say I remember a massive amount about him, but good to get it sorted early. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I recall the name don't remember much about him though he must have been in the Dumbarton side that gave Hughes' team a doing through at theirs. McGlynn must see something given the length of contract, and that probably closes the door on Tait returning.

R.R.FC Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Good to get a midfielder in nice and early. Performed very well at Dumbarton although I’m not sure how he was with Dundee United. Pretty sure he can play primarily as an 8 but also as a 10 so seems like a sensible replacement for Tait. He should fit in well with McGlynn’s preferred style of play too, good footballer. As an aside, at what point do you stop counting a contract in months? I’d say 18, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a two and a half year deal referred to as a 30 month contract so fair play to McGlynn for that! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lang Toun Lad Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I guess that closes the door on Musonda taking Taits place in midfield. I can't really remember much about Stanton but McGlynn must be happy if we've given him a contract that long! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was playing for Dundalk in their European games this season, including a draw away to Vitesse Arnhem so hopefully he can hit the ground running. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankly, Mr Shankly Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Hopefully he can handle the step up to the Premiership. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Scored when we beat Hibs in the Scottish Cup at Easter Road. Seems to have done decent in America. Still trying to find out how he got on with Dundalk. Overall, he'll add depth to the squad and he's a player who has experience at the level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantene proV Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Very happy getting an experienced Pro in midfield. We're definitely going for it this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tiel Burn Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Remember him well from Dumbarton, the name always caught my attention. Keeping in mind SJM has an encyclopedic memory this looks great. Wonder if he has been on trial or training with us. Again, we'll done to the board etc for taking forward thinking action. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that the 30 months commences on the 1st of January this is correct. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachbum Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 A young Stanton scored in the Grant Anderson game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 A look around on twitter and the Dundalk fans seem gutted he's away which is a good sign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverthemoon Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 He’s a McGlynn signing. He’s obviously going to be brilliant. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liked how the highlights just show the linesman walking way not interested after Dougie Hill’s goal. Don’t think it would have got past VAR that one. And Grant Anderson’s winner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Weird game that one against Hibs. One of the Hibs fans chucked a lighter or coin at Callum Booth. Another one of their fans calls out that he was actually a Hibs player on loan and starts fighting with him. Still unreal that they didn't include a clause to make sure he couldn't appear in any potential fixtures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
embow Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Any relation to Pat from past times at Easter Road? I think the Messiah has dug out an astute signing with this and by the reading of things it looks as if he's ready to put him in the team asap from 2nd January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
embow Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Checked online and he's not related to Pat. Pity. I'd hoped there were family genes in him but hey ho! Still a very good signing for us at this level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
