beaver1 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 We’ve signed another player. Darren Christie. He was on loan at Annan last season and I recall he got some very good reviews. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vimto90 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Back down to earth with Dal C. Unfair really as never seen him play but a 33 year old who has played 8 senior games doesn't get ye excited. Imagine on pittance and bit part player. Wonder if hoppy might be away or seen as a winger primarily. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfair really as never seen him play but a 33 year old who has played 8 senior games doesn't get ye excited. Imagine on pittance and bit part player. Wonder if hoppy might be away or seen as a winger primarily. This is exactly my feelings on it. We've just allowed one of the very few experienced players in the team join a rival side one day, and brought in a relative unknown the next. Darren Christie's name was mentioned earlier in this thread so it's no real surprise he's joined Stenhousemuir. Another player Stephen Swift has previously worked with at BSC Glasgow and someone who was quite well thought of during his short loan spell with Annan Athletic. I can't imagine this will bring about the end of David Hopkirk's time at Ochilview (although I've been proven wrong a few times in this regard!) and Christie has signed to beef up the numbers in attack. It's been mentioned elsewhere that Swift prefers a 4-3-3 system and he'll probably start the season with Robert Thomson on the left, Hopkirk on the right and Tam Orr through the middle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee Hibernian Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 A wee bit back, when Jordan Tapping was rumoured to be signing, someone posted wondering when the last time was that two brothers played for the Warriors simultaneously. I might have this wildly wrong, but had to go back to the 1930s for Davie and Peter Cowan. They were from West Carron, and played for a variety of clubs, but their careers overlapped for a time. Peter went on to become Stenhousemuir chairman. Even further back, pre WW1, brothers Jimmy and John Hodge, born in Stenhousemuir, played at Ochilview, then both were transferred, at different points, to Manchester United. Jimmy went to Old Trafford in 1910, John in 1913. Of course, with Callum away to Edinburgh City, the brothers question won't be answered by the Tappings. Sorry to have derailed the signings 'excitement'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Sean Crighton playing an active role in identifying players and suggesting them to the management team? Or is Stephen Swift running ideas past him for his input? I wonder how many of his new team-mates he'd heard of before. Either way, it sounds like big things will be expected from Crighton this season with Swift putting a lot of trust in him. Let's hope he delivers! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francesc Fabregas Posted June 2, 2021 Author Share Posted June 2, 2021 The club are looking for supporters to vote for next season's away kit. One and three are pretty neat - I voted for option three myself! Vote now! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Carrigan Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Really like the new Stenny home shirt - although bizarrely enough that seems to be the template for the Puma goalie shirts for the coming campaign, with the Stenny jersey bearing more than a slight resemblance to a certain German side's jersey. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the design ones, but as they are the same as our home top I've went for the lovely clean white choice 1 for the away. Would be good to see what the short/sock colours for each are though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the downside he is an old fashioned centre Half , kick it long and head it longer.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
