As a starter aye. Doyle would make good squad cover for RB and CH, but I doubt he would be happy in that role.

Theres better out there than Doyle, but we have never been close to finding it since he left.

I think Williamson's a far better wing back in an attacking sense. Faster, good on the ball and has a better cross in him. This of course comes with the caveats that he's never tackled, injured, has to defend, head the ball, etc, etc, etc.

How was keaghan jacobs?

Aye he looked like his legs had gone. Had a decent debut away to Montrose but fell off badly after that. Might’ve been a mix of him not playing for so long and us being so shite but he just looked like he didn’t really give much of a f**k and most games would pass by without him getting involved or when he did he’d do nothing productive.

I’ve no doubt Dick Campbell would get more out of him than our dreadful managers did but I’d still think you could do a lot better.

Arbroath could do better, already have better in that area. He’s done.

We’ve only got Nicky Low. Thought and told the same about him before he joined. And now, after Tam O’Brien our best player

Not just saying this, and I know P&B is Exaggeration Central - but he was genuinely rank rotten. It takes some doing to reach jobber levels of Steven Hetherington and Gary Miller but he managed it effortlessly. Probably a good player in his prime but looked way, way past it with us.

Hetherington another good player. As was Dowds. There’s a theme here

Exactly. Towards end of last season I said a lot of the squad we have will go on to a team higher in the pyramid than us if they leave this summer. I’m 1/1 so far.

Agree, and I think Dick should put in a cheeky wee bid for him!

At Alloa he used to do my tits in. Couldn’t get ball off him. Popped it about and made it look so easy 

 

McGlynn should change the mentality that has haunted yous for however long

Doubt hetherington was ever a good player. Dowds yes there's a player there if used correctly but hetherington is just brutal.  Got away with it at alloa playing avoid relegation football  but in any team that wants to actually win something he's nae use. Never seen a player give the ball away so much . Struggles to pass it 5 yards and can't tackle. The times he got red cards they were for sheer stupidity and not actually just getting stuck in. I'd drive him anywhere that wants him.

To be fair it looked like we were just trying to avoid relegation last season

Agree Shadwell, easy to see why he might be liked for the Alloa losers but not good enough for a team with any ambition.

Nicky Low was a very good championship player for QoTS? Just perma injured.
