BB_Bino Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 Steven Noble signed after being released from Peterhead Good signing for us, a player who has always played well when I have watched him and probably one of the better Left Backs at this level. Haven't seen him for a couple of seasons now, but I'm hoping things haven't changed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeSAFC Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Not sure who Steven Noble is, but hope he's a good signing. Also would take McDonald in a heart beat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakeSAFC Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Andy Little sign on for another year, we have now 14 players signed up for next season. If, it's a big if, he can keep himself fit then that's a fantastic signing. Far too good for this level on his day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good news and news that everyone is sure to be delighted about I would of thought. In the few brief appearances that he made for the club, he didn’t really set the heather on fire but you could see he had the ability to play higher than League 2, and of course, we all know from his time at Rangers that he’s a good player. Get him fit, create chances and I’m sure he’ll score goals. So with little, Henderson, Smith and Kav, is that it for strikers or can we expect another 1 to come in? Must admit, although not urgent, I would like to see another one being signed, especially if Mackay intends to play 3 up front for most of next season. Although I’m seriously dubious of it happening, hopefully Henderson has had his blip and can kick on next season because if we do go with these 4 then he will once again be the focal point through the middle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeSAFC Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Prefer Daz out wide tbh, I'd play Kav and Little up top. Little is good on the ball and will create plenty og chances for Kav. Don't think Henderson is having a blip, just think he's fucking hopeless. Saying that he still managed to score 18 goals for Berwick so there is a goal scorer in there, somewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeSAFC Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 After the scenes and heart break of the Scotland game yesterday, I cannot wait for the season to start again. Wonder who our next signing will be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've 14 signed up so far. Think we need a back up goalie, a right back (unless he intends playing Caddis or Black there), and at least 1 wide midfield player. Haven't heard any names mentioned, but there's a couple of right backs signed elsewhere I wouldn't have minded seeing at Forthbank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we also need a centre back and a winger. Also talk on Rave On about Dylan Easton supposedly signing, he'd be a real coup if kept fit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB_Bino Posted June 13, 2017 Author Share Posted June 13, 2017 Peter MacDonald now confirmed ( www.stirlingalbionfc.co.uk/2017/06/13/macdonald-signs-on ) delighted with the signing, he's a player I've always liked and as Dave Mackay says here, every time he played against us last season he looked good and 22 goals for a team that finished 2nd bottom is pretty impressive.Didn't seem that long ago that players couldn't wait to leave us to join Clyde (Junior, JP McGovern, Johnstone, McKenzie) now it looks as though the tide has turned if the Easton & McNeill rumours are true. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLClyde Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Would've preferred to have kept macdonald but was struggling to see out 90 mins in latter part of the season. Not sure what to make of McNeil rumour as he is signed for next year with us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawfield shed boy Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 To be honest it was me that was told about Peaso and mcneill to you boys. Dont know where the easton one came about. Would be very suprised if he doesnt end up league(s) above but you just never know..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeSAFC Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Very pleased with the signing of Peaso, tore us apart last season. The squad is beginning to look tasty, although I would like us to sign some full backs and a centre back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armand 2 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 MacDonald and Little could be a fine partnership next season. Think the division is warming up to be quite an interesting contest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfcuk Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 MacDonald and Little could be a fine partnership next season. Think the division is warming up to be quite an interesting contest. McDonald hasn't the mobility but he is absolute class finisher , played a lot more games for us than I thought he would fitness wise and seems a good guy to have around the dressing room Was nigh on impossible to stay with us after being co manager and applying for managers job (allegedly) Wouldnt have a bad word said against the guy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way his signings and squad retention has gone, it looks like that he wants to play 4-3-3 moving into next season as well. If that is the case, then McDonald will play centre of a 3 and will be that focal striker and will be against Blair Henderson for a starting place. This would leave Little, Smith and Kavanagh to fight for the places out wide, where they all played last season. On their day, that's a decent forward line for this level, whatever way you look at it. Henderson was pretty brutal last season, but is more than capable of coming on with 20 minutes to go, if McDonald is done, or covering for him when he is injured. We've seen with Henderson before that he does have goals in him, we didn't see that player last season (he admitted it in the Stirling Observer as well) but with better service, maybe he'll really push McDonald. I'm guessing it will be one or the other though, both are too slow to start together. If we can get the men behind them (players like Caddis, Dickson, Noble and if the rumours are correct Easton and McNeill) then we should be in amongst the goals and confident of outscoring teams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeSAFC Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Peaso is a class signing, he'll bag himself a few goals and will create goals. Might be old but is still class. Also, just seen that Iain Russell has retired. What a man. Will never forget when he all but won us a league title. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
