I think we'd be crazy to get rid of McCann. I'm sure Airdrie, for one, would be delighted to take him back.

Well we need a left back and and.... If McCann was to be offered, surely   Falkirk would want a bit of coin for him,  unless there could be can agreement to take on the remaining 2 years of his contract on same terms,  could Airdrie afford that deal though, thought Leon was on a decent contract..

McGinn is a very good signing for this level, Mackie I don't know enough about, he can't be any worse than McCann ( I hope), Oliver is a bit meh though. I actually thought he was older than he is, seems to have been around for ages. That said when your other striker is Jaime Wilson then he'll look like a world beater.

McCann reminds me a bit of Tommy Robson- popular with fans but fundamentally just not good enough defensively.

Personally I’d look to move him on- we’re not exactly overloaded with players who will attract interest so it would make sense to free up wages to me.

Disagree, what he lacks in height he makes up for in getting stuck in. Was our only defender willing to put a foot in last season. And btw for a smaller boy he won a fair few headers and didnt get exploited as much as some made out

We'll let you have him only if you take Brad McKay aswell.

I think I will let John McGlynn decide that. I was a fan of McCann at Airdrie but he has been fucking hopeless in a blue jersey.

Hopefully the fans give the new signings and the contracted players a fair chance to prove themselves under the new management.

For the last few season we have either built them up or condemned them before a ball is kicked.

I’m sure we can all guarantee to give them the usual 20 mins at least….

Wilson, Sneddon and Holt jnr will never be good enough no matter who the manager is. They are just poor footballers. Then you've got the the rest of the wage thieves, who according to the now departed Dixon " chucked the league in September"

Seriously you never know,  McCabe  played with McKay at Dunfermline, rookie managers tend to go down the old teammate route....

Well we have now signed 6 players with more to come. All will be starters. Very few, if any,  of the contracted players deserve a chance or to be at the club after last season and I would predict most will know that and will bugger off.

If McGlynn can move on even half of them he should get a stand named after him.

League winning signing.

We still need a fair few players before I start getting them vibes, he however is an excellent player who will set the standards for the rest of the team. Thus hopefully helping us breed a winning culture. Need someone with decent legs in around him so he can concentrate on dictating the game.

Completely disagree.

He wasn't played properly or often enough to make an impact IMO. Despite his stature he was still our best defensive LB and easily our best attacking threat down the left flank.

Well we will soon find out. IMO he will be gone or sat on the bench all season.
