Francesc Fabregas Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 Our team for the season ahead (so far!): GOALKEEPERS Ryan Marshall (signed from BSC Glasgow) Graeme Smith DEFENDERS BJ Coll (signed from Forfar Athletic) Adam Corbett Ross Lyon (signed from BSC Glasgow) Jamie Mills (signed from BSC Glasgow) Jordan Tapping (signed from East Stirlingshire) MIDFIELDERS Michael Anderson (signed from BSC Glasgow) Adam Brown (signed from Alloa Athletic) Ross Forbes (signed from Dumbarton) Declan Hughes (signed from BSC Glasgow) Callum Tapping Nat Wedderburn (signed from Dumbarton) FORWARDS Cammy Graham David Hopkirk Thomas Orr (signed from Stranraer) Robert Thomson (signed from Alloa Athletic) OUT ON LOAN Josh Grigor (Syngenta) I think we must be close to finishing our business. More defensive cover, some wide players and another forward option and we're about done. I wonder when we'll hear about Paul Brown and Callum Erskine, or if we're bringing in anyone on loan from Hibernian. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaver1 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Wedderburn isn’t for me.Centre defence looks weak so presume one or two to come in there?And where do the Hibs loanees fit in? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was never fast but didn’t have to be. Wedderburn was good for us when he played at centre back. Was really poor in midfield. Far too slow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

true fan Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Yep we do seem to need another central defender. Any news on Crichton? None of the fullbacks seem to have had good reviews. Most of the others, if they don’t get universal plaudits, they get some good reviews Wonder what formation we will start out using? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave_binos Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Jamie Mills was absolutely dreadful for us. This likely means he will be Stenny POTY 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 If you signed a certain ex Edinburgh City player from Forfar the team line up would have a legal look about it- Shepherd and Wedderburn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB_Bino Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Sean Crighton. In ye f*cking come lad. Haven’t seen him in a few years, but an absolute rock when he played for Montrose and Elgin, cracking signing for Stenny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naysmith would have had Tappy at QOTS as well would be sad to see him go but it can't dampen what is probably the most exciting time to be a Warrior's fan in as long as I can remember. Crighton, Forbes and Thomson are really decent names for a diddy club like ourselves complimented with the other guys who have arrived. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parsforlife Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Weederburn has more than enough talent to handle himself at this level, as does Forbes. Both with different strengths but with the same weekness in lack for pace. They’ll probably work in a 5 man midfield, especially if it’s 4-2-3-1. It is however vital however at least 2 and possibly all 3 of the the rest are high energy cover every blade types. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who played alongside Dillon in your promotion side then? That would have been Matty Allan. As for Sean Crighton, I'm pleased to see him join the club. We've missed having an aggressive, no-nonsense centre-back since Andy Munro left the club in January and Crighton's experience and know-how will be the bedrock on which our team will be built on going forward. I hope he can make a positive impact for Stenhousemuir. Again, I'm not sure why bringing in Crighton would mean Callum Tapping is leaving the club, but crack on! On another point, I see some people have pegged us as favourites for promotion too - I'm not sure if this is because we've brought in half-decent players or because we've signed up so many of them in a short space of time relative to everyone else. I think it might be a bit of both. I'm still cautious, but Crighton is a step in the correct direction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
