You've made three posts from this account and they've all been critical of Matty Aitken. Sad. Anyway, going by his recent post-match interview, Gary Naysmith says Stenhousemuir should have another player in at the start of next week. They were looking to get him in the team for the East Fife game but paperwork held up the move; he should join us very shortly. Naysmith also said they're in contact with another couple of players and we might see some movement in the next few weeks. The loan window closes at the end of September so there's plenty of time to recruit players he trusts to make a difference. We've just about got away with starting the season with a small squad so far, so I'm excited to see what we can do with 18 or 19 boys to pick from. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) I think Telfer touched on it earlier but a huge pat on the back for the media game this season. The match day content in particular is brilliant with essentially a live feel for the action for those not at the game. I don't have Instagram but the Facebook stories stuff is excellent and put together well. The photos were really good yesterday as well really capturing the joy of the players and fans alike. Keep up the good work lads. Edited August 20, 2023 by Neilly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've enjoyed listening to Naysmith's after-match interviews. He's been speaking with honesty and you can see there's a definite intent and drive there. Not getting carried away with performances or rewards but delivering praise where it's due and concentrating on what matters, points. Looking forward to seeing who we bring in. Agree with Neilly and FF, the media stuff has been tremendous. Well done to those involved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Blackwell Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Wondering if any of the Rangers players we came up against are possibilities for new signings? The strikers in particular looked as if they could do a job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Blackwell Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 So, Marley sweenie-Bowe. A left back. Bilham has been excellent so I suspect he will start on the bench. Next, a centre forward? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnsythebinman Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 WELCOME | MARLEY SWEENIE-ROWE - Stenhousemuir FC welcome marley. im guessing that if bilham stays fit and keeps playing as well as he has started, then marley is cover. gives us a valuable extra body and i'm excited to see him play 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francesc Fabregas Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 This is, on paper at least, a good piece of business. We've needed another body in there to bolster our defence and Marley Sweenie-Rowe looks like he'll give us cover at left-back and centre-back (and he's someone Gary Naysmith feels he could trust). For now, the left-back spot is Kinlay Bilham's to lose, and Sweenie-Rowe will have to work hard if he wants to break into the starting XI. Another forward and that'll be us, I reckon! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Blackwell Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Who is our cover at right back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 (edited) Lynch. Ross Taylor can also play there then Anderson if completely necessary. Edited August 25, 2023 by Neilly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossBFaeDundee Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Sweenie-Rowe has done well for the reserves and received plenty of credit for our B team's 2 clean sheets in the Challenge Cup against Buckie and East Fife. Reckon this could be a good loan for him at a decent side, and do l hopefully will be mutually beneficial. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Fashioned Stramash Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 I think he'll see enough minutes for Dundee to be happy with the loan. We've got a relatively small squad and looks like he may be able to play further up the left hand side as well, so plenty of opportunity for him. Looks like a decent signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francesc Fabregas Posted September 24, 2023 Author Share Posted September 24, 2023 Stenhousemuir have been drawn at home to Brora Rangers in the Scottish Cup second round. We've met them once before, back in a Challenge Cup tie in 2014, where Scott Booth's side were defeated 3-1 in extra time. I don't think Brora are quite the force they once were a couple of years ago and this should give us a decent chance to progress to the next round. I'll see you all there! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
